Adult Interview Paper

The adult I chose to interview has excellent mental and emotional health. She is a woman full of confidence in both her abilities as a mother, worker, and human being, as well as a high self-esteem pertaining to her position in life and self perception. This person is willing to try new things and approach situation with a quizative and eager to learn attitude. Regardless of age or status, she values information from anyone that is willing to help her improve her ways. Her optimal state of self allows her to improve the environment around her. Because of this, her ability to build healthy relationships with her peers, such as friends, family and co-workers improves her social health. Her high self-esteem also improves her physical health.

By having a positive outlook on herself, both outside and inside, she is able to avoid detrimental states of mind that could affect her diet and physical body.
However, this adult needs improvement in their physical aspects of their health.

Due to her irregular schedule that traveling around the world entails, she hardly receives more than six hours of sleep per night. Her internal clock is often affected by jet lag from different time zones and shifts. So I see her take a lot of long naps that further affect her sleep. Also, pushing heavy carts and lifting luggage is very hard on her body, especially her knees and back. The constant turbulence of the planes also contribute to rough environment she works in, which causes her to bump into hard surfaces, jeopardizing her safety. Altitude changes despite the pressurized cabins greatly contribute to her difficulty of breathing as well as headaches. This irregular lifestyle also does not allow for her to eat healthy meals very often or exercise for at least sixty minutes a day. However, she is able to keep up personal hygiene like showering, brushing her teeth twice daily, washing her hands, etc. She does not smoke, drink, or use any other drugs. Her impeccable hygiene affects her social health since she is able to avoid illness by staying sanitary everywhere. Her public health affects everyone because it is less bacteria and germs that are being spread around. A healthy physical spirit greatly affects her mental state by giving her a vehicle that allows her to experience life to the

fullest.
Lastly, this adult has good social health. She maintains excellent relationships among her family, friends, and co-workers. She spends times with her family by engaging in daily discussion about each other's life, even when she is on a trip, she communicate through video chat. The environment that surrounds her family is a loving and supportive atmosphere where home is a safe and enjoyable place to be. She is able to participate in friendly discussions among her friends and co-workers and maintains a reliable and respectful reputation among her peers. Her ability to reinforce others by overcoming differences in a positive and respectful manner, allows her to create a friendly and happy atmosphere that promotes self confidence and eliminate stress through cooperation and teamwork. When at the end of the day, she and her co-workers are able to be proud of their service they provided. However, working in foreign environments that includes the close confinements of individuals could not be safe to her public health since their are many diseases and opportunities to receive an illness. Because of this, it is required of her to maintain good personal hygiene and physical health so she is able to stay healthy despite many opportunities to get sick. The positive feedback loop between her mental health, physical health and her social health benefit from each other. Her positive outlook on herself and life, radiates outward to her physical health and appearance, as well as strengthens her relationships with others. The strengthening of bonds improves the state of the environment she chooses to subject herself too.
