IMPORTANCE OF THE BODY'S HEALTH

Health is the condition of the body or mind and the degree to which it

is free from illness, or the state of being well. healthy is not merely about physical
health. but can be assessed from several aspects, namely psychology, sociology, and
spiritual. In reality, true health is the intersection of our physical, mental, emotional,
social, and spiritual state of being at any one time. someone can be said to be sick too
if they have several problems covering these aspects. So health is one of the
determining factors in the quality of human resources. health as a condition for
realizing physical, spiritual (mental) and harmonious social development, health as a
condition to carry out activities optimally and in turn will affect achievement and
productivity.
Health is not everything, but without health everything is meaningless. Basically
everyone is craving for a healthy body condition. Why is that? Because health is a
basic human need. Health plays an important role in the lives of every human being,
And the reason that is often the cause of someone being negligent to pay attention
to his health is Because they feel that they are young, many people are reluctant to
pay attention to their health. When in fact the disease comes, do not know age.
Supposedly, if you feel that you are still young, you should pay more attention to
health from an early age because if you get old it will be more difficult. Than When
we feel healthy, it does not mean we can ignore health. In fact, when we are busy we
must be more diligent in maintaining our health. Because if you are already sick, it
will be difficult, while you are still healthy, you can exercise and start paying attention
to what you eat. Don't because you feel healthy, you are putting off doing sports.
Then, don't also because you feel healthy, you are lazy to check your health condition,
even though it will be very useful in maintaining your physical health. often people
underestimate health. if only mild symptoms such as stones occur, their flu tends not
to care about these small things until eventually become a dangerous disease. and they
do not care about health when they are healthy. And only realize the meaning of
health it self when they are already sick.
Health itself has many positive effects for ourselves and others, for ourselves,
that is, if our body is healthy, the body will feel lighter and we, as students, have a
healthy body which will further increase enthusiasm in carrying out college activities
and minimize expenses incurred for treatment if the body is sick. Especially for
overseas students who are far from parents, the importance of maintaining a healthy
body because it is far from parents, so they must be clever in maintaining patterns and
regular exercise so that they still have a healthy body and can be enthusiastic about
running college activities. The health impact for others is certainly almost the same
for ourselves and we need to know that the healthy lifestyle we live will also have a
positive impact on others, so that other people who are around will also carry a
positive impact from maintaining health, and if our environment is healthy then will
be increasingly protected from all types of diseases that will attack our bodies.

Efforts to promote health in the surrounding environment can be done,

among others, through the invitation of everyone to maintain a balanced diet, control
stress, exercise regularly, do not smoke and do not consume alcohol. To foster public
awareness of the importance of healthy living also requires cooperation with all
parties. Because we need a cross-governmental policy in favor of health. Therefore,
health promotion is very important, the meaning of health promotion should not be
interpreted narrowly as mere counseling let alone the distribution of leaflets. The
essence of health promotion is community empowerment, including empowerment
across sectors, the business world, educational institutions and so on. With proper
health promotion, the community will grow awareness and be able to participate in
every health effort.

The contribution that can be given is to decrease and to promote the importance
of health and how to maintain a healthy lifestyle to avoid all types of diseases so that
the body is always healthy and enthusiastic about carrying out daily activities. This
contribution can also be made by collaborating with the surrounding environment
such as the local environment leader to reactivate mutual cooperation activities which
are very beneficial for protecting the surrounding environment, because if our
environment is healthy, it will minimize the disease that comes to our bodies.
