Athletes' Health and Well-Being: A Review of Psychology's State of Mind

Abstract

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.

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.
