Ten habits that can improve mental health, according to psychology

The importance of mental health ....

The quality of your mental health affects pretty much every aspect of your life, including how you behave, feel, and think. The quality of your mental health determines how well you cope with stress, overcome adversity, and achieve your goals. When you’re energetic and positive, these things come easily; when you’re downtrodden and negative, everything seems much more difficult.

What does it mean to have good mental health? Well, contrary to popular belief, it does not mean feeling happy all (or even most of) the time. Of course, happiness is wonderful, and we should all feel happy now and again – it’s just not the cause or effect of good mental health. Instead, good mental health means feeling and thinking in a positive manner more often than not.
People with a good state of mental health often report the following:

• Relatively high self-esteem and self-confidence
  
  
• Feelings of compassion and love for others
  
  
• Good balance between work and home life
  
  
• Adaptability to change
  
  
• Deriving a sense of purpose from something (work-related or otherwise.)
  
  
• Enjoying one or more hobbies on a regular basis
  
  
• Ability to bounce back from stress
