Summary: | Škerbinek writes about life-long education and its influence on the quality of life. Through education, people assume a different attitude towards health, and above all develop an awareness that they are themselves responsible for their health and general well-being. The majority of mental disorders spring from prolonged psychological pressures. Psychiatrists believe in the principle » Prevention is better than cure«, and it is therefore understandable that strong emphasis should be put on education, particularly education leading to formation in the emotional sphere, resistance to consumerism, healthy productivity motivation, and a balanced and healthy life. Avtorica v prispevku razmišlja o vseživljenjskem izobraževanju ter njegovemu vplivu na kakovost človekovega življenja. S pomočjo izobraževanja lahko pri ljudeh dosežemo drugačen pogled na zdravje, vzpostavimo drugačen odnos do njega, predvsem pa ozavestimo dejstvo, da smo sami odgovorni za lastno zdravje in dobro počutje. Večina duševnih bolezni je posledica daljših psihičnih obremenitev in ker v psihiatriji prav tako velja načelo bolje preprečevati kakor zdraviti, je še toliko bolj razumljiva velika vloga vzgoje in izobraževanja, pri čemer bi morali dati poudarek predvsem na vzgojo čustev, vzgojo k odpornosti do porabniške družbe, k zdravi storilnostni motivaciji, na vzgojo za uravnoteženo in zdravo življenje. |
