Personal Health and Wellbeing
Overview
Staying healthy is important for feeling good and having lots of energy. It means doing things like:
- exercising,
- eating good food,
- getting enough sleep, and
- looking after your mental health.
Usually when you exercise, your muscles get stronger, and your heart gets healthier. Eating a balanced diet gives your body the vitamins and minerals it needs to work well. Sleeping the right amount of hours helps you feel rested and ready for the day. Managing stress by doing things you enjoy or relaxing can also help you stay healthy.
