Stress and Psychological Health

Psychological health is, "mental health, defined negatively as the absence of illness or positively as the presence of wellness" (page 48 of Health textbook)

Below, is a picture of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs:



As you see, excretion (which is a different way of saying "exercise") is one of the most important activities a person can do in their day. 


After watching, "The Fun Theory" I realized that if we make exercise seem fun, more people will do it, making everyone healthier  even if it just temporary.


The people in the video were seen as enjoying themselves as they walked up the stairs, rather than taking the escalator. 


If you haven't watched this yet, you will enjoy it! :)
