health Paper
During the last couple of weeks we have been discussing and trying to figure out “What is the connection between health and a good and meaningful life?” We were able to break down health into five major categories; Emotional, mental, physical, spiritual, and social health. We discussed these different categories and carried out several activities to help us get a better understanding of what exactly they contained. I felt that the connection between health and a good and meaningful life is basically being active or taking part in each category meaning expressing true feelings, having a good diet, staying in shape, connecting to your religion, and being helpful and product to your society. I feel if you touch upon some of these points in your own life, you should be generally healthy and this could lead to a good and meaningful life.
When we first started to research health and what it meant, the majority of web links lead to things that discussed weight, food, diets, figure or shape, and exercise. This made me realize two things about the society we live in; one is they want everyone to have bathing suit shape body, and society fails to acknowledge the fact that there are other aspects of health that people must learn about in order to get a great understanding of health.
The activities we did in class touched on most parts of health. I feel the activities that were most affective for me were the activities that consisted of people interacting with each other. Because I am a people person I felt these activities would be most interesting and fun. One activity was when we were giving massages to other classmates which were fun, and at that time I needed a massage the most. A massage can do a lot for a person; it can relax your emotional, mental, and physical parts of health which is great. My classmate Mara did magic with her hands, my back felt better, my mind was more relaxed and it made me happy, what more can I ask for.
I felt as if this health unit was really helpful to my own life because it made me become more aware about my feelings. I don’t hide my feelings, but I don’t express them all the time as if I should be able to. That’s were the society corrupts us, it makes us second guess the things we want to do because we learn things that are a social norm. I feel if people break out these social norms that have been presented to us, we would be able to live our own lives more healthy; physically, healthy, emotionally, mentally and socially. And this will allow us to have a more good and meaningful life.

Break Hw
I think the most point I felt emotionally healthiest during break was on Easter Sunday. I think this because I had several family members over at my house, my father made a huge easter dinner and I can say for the most part everyone was enjoying themselves.I would say the least emotional i felt over break was when it was raining outside and i was stuck inside doing nothing at all bored out my mind.
I think what affects my emotional health depends on the amount of excitiment Im having. Mainly if i keep my self active and doing the things I enjoy or have fun doing then thats where my emotional health would be at its highest.I dont think that emotional health is the same as "constantly happy". I think being emotionally happy means expressing your true feelings and emotions when they are present to you no matter the situation. I think that if your happy, you should be expressing the feeling of happiness and not anger or vis-verse. Also not hiding your feelings could allow you to become more emotionally healthy.

Living Funeral
If I were to have a living funeral, for the most part my entire family would be there, even the family members I may dislike. This would be the perfect time to share our thoughts about each other and for once be 100 percent true to our feelings.
I would also invite several of my friends to attend. I would invite friends that I have from all over. People that can connect with me and understand the importance of my living funeral. I would even invite people from school, because they have been apart of my life for a long time now.
I think my living funeral would be pretty cool. There would be all types of my favorite foods, music, and people. Having all the people that made an impact on my life in many different ways all in the same place at once "thats awesome". But I dont think I would be influencing the idea that Im dieing to much because I want people to be happy. Not happy because Im dieing but happy because we are all spending valuable time together. I would want this to be a good time, people sharing meaningful thoughts about me and great times or eexperiences that have had with me in the past would be fun.
I would probably perfer to have my ashes spread over a tropical island so my spirit could enjoy beautiful weather and be at peace instead of having my body layed up burried in the ground in a closed casket, I dont feel as if thats very much meaningful.
Overall, I think if I had to think about it, I wouldn't really want to die. And it's not necessarily all about me. But think about what lives would be affected. I'm pretty sure there's a line of influence for everyone somewhere, and my death; anyone's death would surely result in a change, if the slightest.
Now that I sit back and analyze funerals and deaths is that people spend their money to have someone burried. I think that doesnt make any sense. Why spend money on a dead human being. Its not like the person is going to say thank you for having such an expensive funeral i really appreciate it. And what if the person didnt even want to be burried. You kind of want to customize your own funeral to what you would like. To make yourself that little legendary figure that will be soon forgotten. is there a point? Maybe.

HUMANISTIC THERAPY
Humanistic psychology focuses on an individual’s mind which is influenced by their unconscious thinking."Human issues, such as the self , self-actualization , health , hope , love , creativity , nature , being , becoming , individuality , and meaning – in short, the understanding of "the personal nature of the human experience".These theorists focused on the depth of the human psyche, which, they stressed, must be combined with those of the conscious mind in order to produce a healthy human personality.Humanistic therapy holds a hopeful, constructive view of human beings and the individual’s substantial capacity to be self-determining. By and large, this therapeutic approach works with present (rather than past) occurrences and attitudes with a goal of client growth and fulfillment.

Health Q&A
What is health?
definition of health is "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity", used by the World Health Organization (WHO) since 1948.
how can you maintain a good healthy life?
When people think about staying fit, they generally think from the neck down. But the health of your brain plays a critical role in almost everything you do: thinking, feeling, remembering, working, and playing – even sleeping.
