What is mental health?
Mental health is an expression we use every day, so it might surprise you that the term ‘mental health’ is frequently misunderstood. 1.
According to the WHO, however, mental health is “a state of well-being in which every individual realizes his or her own potential, can deal with the normal stresses of life, can work fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to her or his community.”
2.
To make things a bit clearer, some experts have tried coming up with different terms to explain the difference between ‘mental health’ and ‘mental health conditions’, such as ‘good mental health’, ‘mental well-being’, and even ‘happiness’. 3.
As a result, some of them have tried to explain the difference by talking about a continuous whole where mental health is at one end of the range while mental health conditions are at the other.
Research shows that high levels of mental health are associated with increased learning, creativity and productivity. 4. In contrast, mental health conditions can cause distress and bad effect on relationships. They are also related to poor physical health and death from suicide.
5. The fact that someone is not experiencing a mental health condition doesn’t necessarily mean his mental health is good. Likewise, it’s possible to be diagnosed with a mental health condition while feeling well in many aspects of life.
Briefly, mental health is about being emotionally and socially healthy – the way we think, feel and develop relationships - and not merely the absence of a mental health condition.
A. So instead of being about ‘what’s the problem?’, it’s really about ‘what’s going well?'.
B. It is often mistakenly used as a substitute (替代) for mental health conditions.
C. This, however, will help prevent mental health conditions.
D. But others argue that using more words to describe the same thing just adds to the confusion.
E. They can also improve social relationships and physical health.
F. Many people are affected by depressions, anxiety and suicide.
G. But it’s important to remember that mental health is complex.
Going green seems to be fad (时尚) for a lot of people these days. Whether that is good or bad, we can’t really say, but for the two of us, going green is not a fad but a lifestyle.
On April 22,2011,we decided to be green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 different things, and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond the easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy, we had to think of 365 different things to do and this was no easy task.
With the idea of going green every single day a year, Our Green Year started. My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.
Over the course of Our Green Year, we completely changed our lifestyles. We now shop at organic (有机的) stores. We consume less meat, choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buying we don’t need. We have given away half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice, with no chemical cleaners. We make our own butter, enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread. In our home office anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.
Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others. We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planets.

When talking about colds (感冒), maybe some people say it is very common. During the cold winter days, many people will complain (抱怨) the cold winter makes them catch a cold, and what they feel upset are not only the headache, cough but also the runny nose. It is so embarrassing when they forget to take a handkerchief or tissue along with them.
Want to stay away from colds? Put on a happy face.
Compared to unhappy people, those who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds, according to a new study. It's possible that being happy helps the body fight illnesses, say the researchers from New York University.
"It seems that positive (积极的) feelings may reduce (减少) the danger of illness, " said the study's chief researcher Sheldon Cohen.
In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were cheerful and lively caught coughs and colds less often. People who showed feelings were also less likely to tell their doctors that they felt ill.
In this study, Cohen has interviewed 193 adults every day for two weeks. During the interviews, the people told researchers that they were given colds by doctors and had to stay alone in a room for six days.
The results showed that everyone in the study was equally (相等地) likely to get ill. But for people who said they felt happy during the research period, their illness are less serious and lasted for a shorter time.
Cohen believes that when people experience positive feelings, their body may produce a chemical that helps fight illness and disease. So if you are worried about your health, look on the brighter side more often.
