Emotional wellbeing linked to physical wellbeing

14 May 2022 by Ted Escobedo 2 min read

Research has proven that physical activity can help bring emotional wellbeing into focus.

It’s important to know that mental wellbeing does not mean being happy all the time, and it does not mean that you won’t experience negative or painful emotions, such as grief, loss, or failure, which are a part of normal life. However, whatever your age, being physically active can help you to lead a mentally healthier life and can improve your wellbeing.

Emotional wellbeing is a positive physical, social and mental state and while it does not have a single universal definition, but does encompass factors such as:

The sense of feeling good about ourselves and being able to function well individually or in relationships

The ability to deal with the ups and downs of life, such as coping with challenges and making the most of opportunities.

The feeling of connection to our community and surroundings.

Having control and freedom over our lives.

Having a sense of purpose and feeling valued.
