Abstract

These days it can be seen that psychological health of the individual is very stressful. It’s not only the
adults who are under stress rather children, adolescents and people of all ages are facing stressful challenges which
affect not only the physical health but also their mental health. But unlike the olden times when it was considered to
be shameful or embarrassing to express the mental health issues now a day’s people are more open about it. The
fact is that besides physical health people have also started discussing openly about their mental health because
they have now started hunting for mental peace. They have understood the fact that mental health is equally
important and mental peace and strength can help the individual in solving and surpassing any crisis. Psychological
well-being itself helps in maintaining good physical health also. This paper is an attempt to focus on various studies
on the important variable of positive psychology i.e., positive affirmations which is considered to be very helpful and
fruitful in maintaining psychological well-being.
