Even though athletes are human beings whose physical, mental, and social health is reflected in their well-being and ill-being. As a result, athletes' holistic health is an important part of their identity as athletes and people. Humans' participation in sports can either help or hinder their well-being development. Therefore, the proposed framework of this article is to review; (i) well-being and quality of life; (ii) the impact of good health on athletes' well-being and (iii) Athlete's state of mind during a performance (vii) Mental health and sports performance (viii). Data was taken from a variety of journals that have been published in peer-reviewed journal articles, but only English-language studies that had been published between 2015 and 2022 were taken into consideration for this study. Researchers used the following keywords to source for the information related to the studies. Although there were several papers on the issue, only a small number of text pieces were included for this review. To summarize, the studies indicated that coaches, trainers, teachers, and sports psychology ensure that athletes are in good health and well-being for them to be able to carry out their roles and functions. There will be no excellent performance or achievement if one is not in a good mental state. We must promote self-care, personal health, personal growth, and stress management techniques to provide every athlete with good health and well-being for them to maintain a stable state of mind. It is recommended for researchers to investigate the etiology of mental illness among athletes.
Recreational activities can meet a range of needs for elderly people as well as people of all ages, creating good health and happiness. Increased health and fitness are key benefits of recreation for the elderly population. Activities provide opportunities for socializing, utilizing skills and abilities earned over their lives, and learning new skills. The aims of this review were to emphasize the relevance of leisure activities for elderly people, aging and quality of life, leisure activities and physical health, leisure activities and well-being, mental health and well-being, and leisure and social connectedness. A literature review was conducted on several published peer-reviewed journal articles, but only articles from 2015–2021 and those written in the English language were considered for inclusion in this study. Researchers searched Google Scholar, Microsoft Academic, ProQuest, PLoS One, Cochrane Library, JSTOR, Microsoft Academic databases, and Pubmed for information. Several articles were related to the subject, but only a few text articles were used for this review. According to the reviewed articles, the studies pointed to the fact that elderly and agedpeople should be encouraged to participate in recreational activities throughout their lives to maintain and improve their health.
