Mental Health

Mental wellness is generally viewed as a positive attribute, such that a person can reach enhanced levels of mental health. This definition of mental health highlights emotional well being, the capacity to live a full and creative life, and the flexibility to deal with life's inevitable challenges. Many therapeutic systems and self-help books give methods and philosophies espousing strategies and techniques vaunted as effective for further improving the mental wellness of otherwise healthy people.
A holistic model of mental health generally includes concepts based upon anthropological, educational, psychological, religious and sociological perspectives, as well as theoretical perspectives from personality, social, clinical, health and developmental psychology.
