The holistic concept of health holds that being healthy includes not only being free of bodily
illnesses or diseases, but also being emotionally comfortable. This includes psychological, physical,
spiritual, environmental, and social aspects of the individual. Someone who is worried or has low
self-esteem, for example, is not healthy. People who share this viewpoint are more likely to view
themselves as ill when they experience any uncomfortable feeling, not only physical discomfort or
aches, and are more likely to recognise any little discomfort, such as tiredness, as an indication of
sickness. To be healthy requires evaluating the full person, their physical, psychological,
emotional, social, and spiritual well-being, and understanding how these aspects function within
their environment and social relationships. Professionals must understand the full individual,
including their beliefs, priorities, surroundings, and physical and mental well-being. They must
evaluate all parts of a person's life for them to manage with their illness or condition. Holistic
therapies include chiropractic, acupuncture, and reflexology. Holistic therapy is the treatment of
the mind, body, soul, and emotions. Holistic therapy treats the full person rather than just the
symptoms.5.......................................................................................................................................4

what is Health Psychology
Health psychology is a part of psychology that focuses on the social, biological, and
environmental factors that impact human health. Health psychology tries to
understand and improve perception. Attempts to analyse and modify thoughts,
emotions, and behaviour, as well as their interactions in the context of health,
sickness, and healthcare. Health psychology works in a variety of settings, including
the NHS, private practise, schools, and local governments. Health psychology is
concerned with understanding how psychological, behavioural, and cultural factors
contribute to physical health and illness, and how psychological factors can directly
affect health.
Health psychology is important because people prioritise their health, understanding
health behaviour can help to reduce health inequalities, people with chronic
conditions like cancer, diabetes, and heart disease need self-management help to
reduce risks or manage their conditions, and health professionals need support to
deliver patient-centred care and help patients prevent and manage conditions.
Concepts of Health and Ill Health
Illness & Disease:
Illness is someone suffering from anything that makes you sick; illness lasts a
specific amount of time; illness is subjective; and feeling unwell can mean various
things to different individuals. For example, two people may have the same
symptoms but one may feel worse than the other.
Disease is completely different classification, it’s a disorder of structure or function in
a human, animals or plant, a disease is a pathological process that healthcare can
see, touch or measure, disease have signs and symptoms and have been given a
specific name, disease is objective, example of disease is chicken pox, measles,
mumps, Aids, cancer.
The difference between illness and disease is that illness can affect the body or mind
in a variety of ways, and illness can be a viewed assumption of illness or obtain from
self-diagnosis, whereas disease has a specific result on a body part or function, and
disease must be diagnosed by a medical expert, and disease is named by a
pathological identifying label such as diabetic, sickle cell anaemia, or lumps
