Social psychologists have been unveiling the various psychological components to the optimal wellbeing of an individual. Arguably, optimism and happiness have been associated with proper interventions that lead to one’s health by pursuing mindfulness meditation and exercise, which have positively led to a well-supported cognition, brain, and neural functions. Researchers have also witnessed how exercise can also promote greater body image, by leading to positive minds and intrinsic motivation, which have led to rewiring the brain and neural circuits as well as functions in a positive manner. In the recent years, technological advancements have also made AI-devised personalized telemedicine more accessible, where in the space of mental health, patients are able to connect with therapists in a more accessible manner through the support of AI, prototypes and mental health platforms that have revolutionized the mental health industry.
