WHAT IS EMOTIONAL WELLNESS :
Emotional wellness is one of the most important ingredients to live a happy and fulfilled life, yet most often, stressors in life take up a huge part of our minds and we tend to push our emotional well being aside. Most of the time I have noticed that I do this a lot, whenever exams or assignments are around the corner, I tend to ignore my emotional wellbeing completely and it starts taking a toll on my mental health.
Emotional wellness is defined by our ability to handle emotions and different types of experiences that are thrown at us during the course of our life. It can be defined as awareness, understanding and acceptance of our feelings and our ability to manage them effectively through challenges and change.
When we start attending to our emotional wellbeing, it can be a very rewarding journey.
HOW EMOTIONAL WELLNESS CAN AFFECT US :
Stress causes low immunity and opens the door for illnesses that your body finds difficult to cope with.
Living in a long-term stressful state can also influence blood pressure problems like high blood pressure and hypertension.

HOW CAN WE IMPROVE OUR EMOTIONAL HEALTH :
Emotional and mental health are the most crucial parts of living a healthy life and we should take care of our emotional well being just like we take care of our physical well being and we need to learn that even though our priorities change daily, in terms of what we pay more attention to, our emotional well being always needs to be our priority, daily, no matter how many deadlines we need to complete and how much backlog we have.
Your emotional health is your responsibility and an everyday priority.
