Salutogenesis: Exploring Mental Health (Volume 2) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798887404479)

Salutogenesis is an approach to human health that focuses on factors that support human health and well-being rather than on factors that cause disease. It studies the origins of health and also the multidimensional causes of higher levels of health. Different models associated with salutogenesis involve a holistic approach with respect to different aspects such as physical, social, emotional, spiritual, intellectual, vocational, and environmental aspects. Health promotion is based on a salutogenic concept of health, since it aims to empower people and populations to better regulate and manage their health and well-being. The focus of health promotion concentrates on the mechanism of stress management and staying well, thereby having a positive impact on mental health. It also involves increasing this belief in this own potential and building this confidence. The majority of services are health-related, dealing with the treatment, and care of those who are sick. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of salutogenesis which will be crucial for the progress of this field in the future. The topics covered herein offer the readers new insights within this field.
