Describe characteristics of positive mental health
Essential Question: I am mentally and emotionally health?
“People who are emotionally healthy are in control of their emotions and their behavior. They are able to handle life’s
challenges, build strong relationships, and recover from setbacks. But just as it requires effort to build or maintain
physical health, so it is with mental and emotional health. Improving your emotional health can be a rewarding
experience, benefiting all aspects of your life, including boosting your mood, building resilience, and adding to your
overall enjoyment of life.” Source: http://www.helpguide.org/articles/emotional-health/improving-emotional-health.htm
It is very important to evaluate your mental and emotional health and take appropriate action to improve it. As such, you
have been given the task to learn and practice healthy strategies and tips to build your mental and emotional health.
