What is mental health promotion?
Mental health promotion (MHP) is the process of enhancing the capacity of individuals and communities to increase control over their lives and improve their mental health. By working to increase self-esteem, coping skills, social connectedness, and well-being, mental health promotion empowers people and communities to interact with their environments in ways that enhance emotional and spiritual strength.
Mental Health Promotion
Mental health is the capacity to feel, think and act in ways that enhance our ability to enjoy life, realize our own potential, deal with challenges, and contribute to society (Mental Health Commission of Canada).
