ABOUT THE WELLNESS CLINIC
Why is the Wellness clinic important?
Wellness involves a complete general wellbeing. It’s really a balance of emotional, physical, spiritual, and mental health. Wellness is extremely essential to improve the mind body and spirit. Wellness is a state in which every individual realizes his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a good contribution to the community at large.
Wellness is knowing Self, having someone to love, trust and share, knowing where to go in life and contributing to work and not just doing a job.
Most of us know how to keep physically healthy through diet, exercise and good sleep habits. But very few are aware that the root of everything is our mind. How many of us consider taking care of our mental health on a regular basis? We should be taking equally good care of our mental health as we do our physical health and our social health because our mental health affects both. To quote, when we are in a good mood, even a difficult situation does not bog us down. It only raises our hope to compete harder. But when in a bad mood, we can only perceive negative and feel thoroughly hopeless. Our mental health affects our physical health in startling ways. Studies have shown that people with untreated mental health problems visit a medical doctor twice as often as people who receive mental health care. Excessive anxiety, depression and stress can contribute to physical problems such as heart disease, ulcers, colitis, headaches and musculoskeletal problems. Anxiety and stress can also reduce the strength of the immune system, making people more vulnerable to conditions ranging from the common cold to cancer.Our mental health also affects our ability to interact with others in effective ways. When we are depressed, stressed or anxious, we are more likely to feel irritable, frustrated and intolerant. A healthy mind is the backbone of a healthy body.
Today, in India, we are trying to match our steps with the west and from the joint family status we have moved out to become nuclear families. This move have left many to a state of loneliness not knowing who to confide with, therefore leading to stress and turmoil. Life is a sea of stress but one cannot avoid living, so, wellness helps us to manage this stress and make life more worthy.
