What is emotional health?
Emotional health is the set of skills and beliefs that shape our thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It is affected throughout our lives by our relationships and our experience of the relationships around us.
Good emotional health is being aware of, understanding and managing our whole range of emotions. Positive relationships support us to build healthy beliefs about ourselves and others.
There are seven components of emotional health, and while each is important within its own right, it’s how they work together that forms our emotional health. The Centre for Emotional Health have written a blog that explains their model and why emotional health is important, click here to find out more.
