MENTAL
HEALTH
IS
CRUCIAL TO HOLISTIC
HEALTH
Although
both
mental
and physical health contrib-
ute
to
holistic
health for
the
mind and
the
body,
the
former
is
more important, as
a
good
mental
state
is
con-
ducive
to
better
physical
health and vice
versa.
At
times, poor
mental
state
would even
lead
to
disea-
ses, e.9.,
hypertension,
coronaries, stroke, stomach
ulcers,
etc.
On
the
other
hand,
old
age need
not nec-
essarily be
synonymous
with poor health. Specialists
from
the
WHO regard
as
many
as
50-80%
of
dis-
eases
are
related
to
poor
mental state.
As
most
long
survivors
are
usually
open
minded and optimistic,
it
pays
to
nurture the mind
at
its
best.
Refrain
from exces-
sive
emotional extremes-
develop a more
philosophi-
cal
thinking.
For
the
elderly,
settle
retirement by an ap-
propriate change
of
role
in
life. Keep
the
mind
occupied
-the
best way
to
be
happy
and content. Apart from
a
regular lifestyle,
take
part
in
social activities often.
