Mental Health is Brain Health

This short video explains the concept of 'mental health' and how it is closely tied to 'brain health'. It emphasizes that our emotional, psychological, and social well-being are all linked to the health of our brain, and by taking care of our brains, we can improve our overall mental health.

"Mental health" is defined as a person's emotional, psychological, and social well-being. Chances are, your emotional, psychological, and social well-being may fluctuate. You may feel sad, confused, or angry at some point in your life. These mental experiences take place in the brain and greatly impact the way we live and experience life. By taking care of our brains, we can improve our mental health and overall well-being. Therefore, we use the term "brain health" to refer to what is commonly known as "mental health."
