The study found that those who responded optimistically to adversity lived longer those who responded pessimistically to adversity.

Adversity and stress visit us all on a regular basis. A quick test of your own current state of optimism is the reaction you have when reading the above paragraphs. Some people gain hope and confidence from the news. Others feel helpless and shake their heads while muttering something negative. We all see both reactions in life and unfortunately the negative thinking seems to be more common.

The field of science is one that requires constant change and evaluation. To see if the various theories that we come up with are accurate and credible there needs to be experimental data that supports this theory. In psychology experiments are part of the way that psychology is studied. These psychology experiments are conducted in various places.

The results from these psychology experiments are written down and examined later by the psychologists. They will note the various reactions that their human subjects have displayed and what the surrounding area was like at the time of the psychology experiment. The various experiments are linked to different spheres in our social lives. As we are constantly interacting with other humans and the different situations that arise it is necessary to see why different people react the way that they do.

With these psychology experiments it will be possible for psychologists and other medical professionals to gauge how a certain person will be able to interact with society before some inner defense mechanism kicks in. This defense mechanism is different for everyone. Some of us will just turn our backs on society at large and become hermit-like or a recluse. Others will become even more exuberant while they seem to operate on remote control.

A person who is healthy may still be bored, depressed, tense, anxious or simply unhappy with their lives. Hence, wellness is not a static state and does not automatically mean that a person is only healthy. In general, wellness encompasses good physical health and the feeling of happiness and satisfaction. In wellness, the efficient and smooth flow of energy is important to your mind, body and spirit.

Your emotional wellness (emotional state) can influence your physical wellness (physical health) and vice versa. A person in an unhealthy resistance and is more vulnerable to development of illness or physical disease. The negative feelings can also lead to the development of unhealthy habits such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption and drug abuse.
