MENTAL FITNESS

It goes without saying that good  physical health is important in both children and adults for their overall well-being but we tend to forget about our mental fitness/ mental health.

Mental fitness  means having  the tools and resilience required to maintain a state of positive mental health even when facing challenges in our day to day duties and activities.

There are many ways we can improve our mental health.These include playing games, regular exercising, good eating habits but today i will talk about talking or sharing your problems with someone you trust or a physiotherapist.

Experts say that talking can help provide stress relief and lighten the load of concern someone might be having. Talking can lighten your mood and make you feel happier and even lower your risk  of dementia. During this month of November, Global Fast Fit Kenya will be a partner in the ongoing Men's mental awareness forum starting from 6th-30th November. Global Fast Fit is going beyond physical fitness. it is also encouraging mental fitness. In my own perspective, physical fitness goes hand in hand with mental fitness.

In conclusion, mental health can be challenging to deal with. However, it is not impossible to overcome.
