         <title>3. How can someone be PROACTIVE in Emotional Health (at least 3 examples for each) </title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. <strong>Connect with people daily. </strong>One of the greatest travesties of this entire global pandemic has been the forced isolation of millions. It’s had an especially negative impact on people who live alone. And while we’re fortunate enough to have technologies like Zoom and Facetime, there is no replacement for connecting with people face-to-face. Even if you work from home or live by yourself, it’s important that you spend some time with people every day. It could be as simple as grabbing coffee with a friend or going into the office to say hello to some coworkers. Simple acts of socialisation lift your spirits (even if you’re an introvert). <br>2. <strong>Take inventory of how you feel. </strong>Make a regular practice of taking an inventory of your feelings. Using a journal or a physical notebook, stop at least three times per day to listen to your mind and body. Write down the time and the emotion you associate with most strongly at that time (happy, stressed, confused, sad, anxious, excited, etc.). Not only does this make you more aware of your emotional health, but it also gives you something that you can look back on. Three months from now, you’ll be able to track the ebb and flow of your mental health.<br>3. <strong>Try tuning fork therapy. </strong>Sometimes you need to bring your body back into a sense of balance. One excellent (yet little-known) option is <a href="https://sacredwaves.com/tuning-forks">tuning fork therapy</a>. Regular tuning fork therapy sessions can help equalize your body. Tuning forks are calibrated to specific frequencies and used on specific points or meridians. The result is greater harmony and stronger mental health.<br>4. <strong>Take care of yourself. </strong>There’s a pretty significant connection between your mind and your body. Many of the body’s key nerves – including the vagus nerve, which traces from the brain down to the colon – affect both aspects of your well-being. That means, by taking care of your physical health, you can actually have a positive impact on your mental health as well. Regular exercise, for example, is <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/02/well/move/even-a-little-exercise-might-make-us-happier.html">associated with greater happiness</a>.<br>5. <strong>Avoid social media. </strong>Getting off Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok is one of the smartest things you can do for your mental health and well-being. ‘While many of us enjoy staying connected on social media, excessive use can fuel feelings of anxiety, depression, isolation, and FOMO. Here’s how to modify your habits and improve your mood,’ <a href="https://www.helpguide.org/articles/mental-health/social-media-and-mental-health.htm">HelpGuide.org explains</a>. Use the time that you would have spent mindlessly scrolling to engage in practices like meditation, journaling, or even more sleep! All of these activities will have a much more positive impact on your health.<br>6. <strong>Take care of yourself. </strong>The time to address your mental health is when things are going well and you feel like you have everything under control. When you’re in this sort of headspace, it’s much easier to strengthen your mindset and think positively. But regardless of where you currently are on the mental health spectrum, now is as good a time as any to implement the tips and techniques outlined above. Don’t be reactive – take control.&nbsp;<br>Link:<br>https://www.psychreg.org/how-proactive-mental-health/</div><div><br></div>]]></description>

Emotional reactivity was defined as degree of emotional responses. Examples included frequency and intensity of emotion, threshold of arousal, negative response to challenge, and autonomic reactivity. Emotion regulation was defined as management of emotional responses to situations.<br>Link:<br>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1630450/<br><br>3. Reactive healthcare involves <strong>reacting to an adverse disease, injury, condition or symptom</strong>. If you wake up one morning with a fever and body aches, for instance, you may react by visiting the doctor. Depending on the doc's diagnosis, he or she may prescribe you with antibiotics to help your body fight the infection.<br>Link:<br>https://www.summitchirocare.com/proactive-vs-reactive-healthcare-whats-the-difference/</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Reactive people <strong>let their circumstances and conditions control them</strong>. Reactive people think that stimulus and response are inextricably connected. They don't see the gap between the two, and believe that one determines the other. So if the weather is foul, a reactive person will be in a foul mood, too.<br>Link:<br>https://www.artofmanliness.com/character/habits/7-habits-proactive-not-reactive/<br><br>2.

This involves <strong>reacting to an event after the event has already occurred</strong>. An example of that would be a teacher responding to a student cheating on an exam after the cheating has already occurred.
