This week is just too much work.,..

. Discuss the connection of the spiritual wellness to mental and physical wellness. Explain how the connection is manifested in your personal life.
What I have learned and research from Ron Sterling, M.D. and the website of mental health is that
Mental Wellness = self-appreciation + resilience + affiliation + negotiation + mental and physical exercise.
Exercise, curiosity, and leisure activities have a lot in common, but they are distinct tools and skills that have each been proven to enhance mental wellness. Research has consistently shown that physical exercise protects against depression and that "leisure activities" such as reading, playing board games or musical instruments, and dancing enhance brain functioning and decrease the risk of dementia.
