Focusing on Overall Well-Being to Improve Academics | Mrs. Reji Benny |

There is a direct link between well-being and academic achievement, i.e. well-being is a crucial prerequisite for achievement and achievement is essential for well-being. There are a number of different types of well-being, all of which need to be promoted to some extent to create an overall sense of well-being in a person. Childhood and adolescence is a critical period in the development of long-term attitudes towards personal well-being and lifestyle choices. Leading national education organizations recognize the close relationship between health and education, as well as the need to foster health and well-being within the educational environment for all students. Facets of wellbeing, such as gratitude, hope, and emotional regulation, have been found to improve academic performance across several areas. Health-risk behaviors such as obesity, mental health issues, and improper lifestyle are consistently linked to poor grades and test scores and lower educational attainment.
