You probably don`t relize it,but your involvement in the society in which you live plays a part in your overall health.Until recently,health specialists paid little attention to the social aspect of well-being.Now, however, more and more health experts are recognizing that our social relationship are relevant to our health. At one level,social health is concerned with the people with whom we come into contact. Our relationships with our parents,friends,neighbors,and acquaintances all have a bearing on our health.Conflicts with parents or friends are stressful,and stress can have adverse effects on your bodies and our minds.People who enjoy close, supportive relationships and who get along well with thier famalies are likely to be healthier than those who don`t. At a higher level,social health is concenred with our roles within society as a whole.For a society to function well,its members need to recognize certain basic needs.Each one of us can contribute to the well-being of our own society in a variety of ways. You could,for example,volunteer your time or money to help others or to work for important causes.Or you could aim for a style that minimize waste of natural resources,conserves energy, and reduces envirmental pollution.For instance,you might choose to walk or ride a bicycle rather than drive a car.This would not only help society,but it would also be good for your
physical and mental health. Taking responsibility for your personal health also contributes to social health.If you look after yourself,you are less likely to become aburden to others because of illness.Ideally, people with high levels of social health give more to the world than take from it.
