Maintaining good mental health is easy because you obviously already achieved and maintained good health until now. Improving mental health implies you are disatisfied with your current state of well being. I find vitamin B-12 to be helpful. Exercise and good diet is important and avoiding excesses is also crucial. Emotional well-being involves other people. Surround yourself with healthy and loving people. Avoid drugs and people who use them. Talking about your feelings is always a good thing. ]
Well I don't know how much access you have to it, but the one thing that I couldn't live without is music. I would recommend listening to music you like. Something I that always makes me feel better is spending time with my dog. If you have any pets, taking care of them and being with them can give your life much more meaning. Also if you don't already make sure to start becoming physically active and make it a routine part of your day. Like running a mile or two a day. Also if you can spend time more time with family members you like this always seemed to cheer me up. Hopefully this info helps. ]
WEll, I would say from reading books, You are from Tonga, and I don't know if there are a lot of books available to you, but you are on the internet, and there are lots of books and publications and websites dedicated to mental health. And I am not sure if you mean, emotional health, mental health, and/or intelligence.
If I take the litteral meaning of your words, then I would say mental health means the absence of things like depression, schizophrenia, obsessive/compulsive disorders and stuff like that, and in some cases, people who have these problems have chemical imbalances or brain disorders that they cannot help, and many of them need to be on medication to maintain their mental health, so in that case, .....if you have problems like those, then you need to see a medical doctor.
I hope this helped.
