Introduction to Health

          Health in general is the condition of a person's mind, body and spirit, usually meaning to be free from illness, injury or pain. The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health in its broader sense in 1946 as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and the absence of disease or infirmity." Health is not just a state but also "a resource for everyday life” and it is not the objective of living. Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, as well as physical capacities. The maintenance and promotion of health is achieved through different combinations of physical, mental, and social well-being, collectively referred to as the "health triangle.” 

HEALTH TRIANGLE

        As life expectancy rates continue to rise, issues concerning health and well-being have become more popular. Health is the measure of our body’s efficiency and overall well-being. The health triangle is a measure of the different aspects of health. Healthy lifestyle practices involve more than just exercise and proper nutrition. Mental well-being and social ties also play a part in achieving optimal health. 

        The health triangle is a model that defines optimal health as a balance between the mental, social and physical areas of life. In order to achieve these three concepts in a better scale is the requirement of a balance and support among each other. They all need each other and work together as a whole.

• Physical health
• Social health 
• Mental health

      

        Imagine an equilateral triangle with three equal sides: one stands for physical, one for mental, and one for social. These collectively make up the health triangle with equal sides.

• Physical health is how your body works and feels inside and outside. 
• Mental health is how you feel and your emotions. 
• Social health is how you interact and get along with others.

        Each point symbolizes one part of what it means to be human. Each of these health concepts collaboratively should balance with each other to produce a well maintained lifestyle.
