The third integral and important part of a healthy lifestyle (HLS) - a mental health. An important indicator of health is mental balance, ability to own themselves and properly build relationships with other people.

Conditions for correct communication. The first condition for proper communication - the ability to live their thoughts and feelings by proxies. People should not passively follow false views, Each person should be its own position on the issue and the problem.
But at the same time, taking a particular decision, a person must be competent in the matter, or at least should properly evaluate their competence, to understand that he knows good and what is bad and what can be wrong.

Recognition of the mistakes and their constructive correction - a sign of force, instead of weakness. Critically to another should begin with the critical attitude to.

The ability to listen to objections, understand the position of another, the ability to put yourself in your opponent's place is a complex and important task for each of us.

The person will receive from associates in the obvious or latent type that will give itself: in reply to goodwill - goodwill, in reply to roughness - roughness, etc. Display of fieriness, roughness, anger puts the big harm not only to associates, but also to the offender as it is mandatory in this or that form will be reflected in it.

Ability to own your feelings, not to transfer their bad mood on others is not only a sign of internal culture but also the main indicator of your mental health.

The second condition of proper dialogue - skill in attitudes with associates to distinguish the main thing from minor, to not come under influence of a situation, to become above it. The business and acts of other people should be estimated by meaningful criteria, instead of on trifles. The big art - to do proper conclusions of vital situations, it's on time to notice and correct the mistakes admitted in dialogue.

You should never persist in their errors, often recall the proverb 'To err is human, but fools insist on their mistakes. " Property of many limited natures - by all means to have his own. A misinterpretation of others' intentions, a fanatical belief in the assumptions often lead people to a state that in psychiatry called overvalued idea.

The recognition of their errors and the constructive their patch - a symptom, not a weakness. Sensitivity to the other should begin with a critical relationship to itself. Psychological defense in such situations is the recognition of overvalued ideas and a change in attitudes. Not by chance that the Roman philosopher emperor Marcus Aurelius wrote 'The changed attitude to the things that bother you, and you will be safe from them. "

The third condition of proper dialogue and mental health is the rational parity of emotional experiences and specific actions. For example, the person has received unpleasant news which has strongly upset it. To react to it it is possible differently. It is possible to join in activity and to try to find a way out, and it is possible and to cry some days, nothing having made.

So, try to do that and you will never ask a question: "Why is mental health important?".
