Phenomenology and fundamental differences between the two terms: healthy lifestyle and healthy lifestyle
The article presents the fundamental differences between the two terms widely used in domestic studies of the phenomenon of health: “healthy lifestyle” and “healthy image”. Semantic analysis showed that a number of authors mix these terms within the same study. In biomedical research, the term “healthy lifestyle” is preferred in the context of the correction of risk factors for harm to health. In our opinion, the lifestyle determines the mode of existence that allows you to most fully realize the individual goals of the individual or adapt to the environment that at a given moment determines the main type of human activity. Reflecting on the lifestyle, we asked ourselves the question: “How to characterize a healthy person? And how legitimate is it to limit motivation for life in all its diversity to the framework of the postulate “healthy lifestyle”? How often, a physically healthy person with a high quality of life index feels endless apathy, and on the contrary, we observe high personal success in someone who is deprived of good physical health from birth. We cannot find unambiguous answers to these questions, but we can advise using the concept of a “healthy lifestyle” for psychological and pedagogical research as a more capacious construct that does not require strict standardization.
