As health is the phenomenon, which has its ischolar_main in mental set up or brain of individual, it is necessary to study health under psychology. Mental health and emotional health are known phenomena, which are already being studied under psychology. According to me, it is necessory to study physical health under psychology, as physical health is related to mental health. In addition to these known phenomena, I am going to suggest new phenomena of health, viz., intellectual health, social health, national health, global health and universal health of individual, which are related to healthy behaviour of individual with respect to that particular health.
