This week’s Talk Time poses a moral question:
Is physical health more important than mental health?
What is physical health?
Physical health is about a healthy body. This includes proper nutrition and plenty of physical activity.
What is mental health?
Mental health is about a healthy mind. Mental health is a sense of identity and self-worth; positive family and peer relationships; an ability to be productive and to learn.
Have a discussion with friends and family at home. Consider what physical and mental health looks and feels like for you. Does this match up to your friends’ and family’s ideas?
After the discussion with friends and family, what conclusion do you reach? Do others around you agree?
