From the Paper:

"In order to achieve total health several components of a young person's life must be examined and brought into focus. Furthermore, because the decisions they make are important, young people need to be informed so that they are empowered and able to make the right choices. Physical health is comprised of not only exercise and nutrition, but also drug and disease awareness. Conversely, mental health includes a complete self-familiarity, and a self-love that includes a high self-esteem."
