How significant physical hygiene and personality?

Answer 1

Probably every child and adult would agree, the tasks of hygiene are....boring.

• People rush through brushing teeth, taking an average of 1-minute rather than several minutes.
• If people floss, they rush and just do the front teeth.
• Tub baths keep people in the water longer but often they "soak" rather than "wash" and "scrub".
• Showers can be so quick that soap barely has time to be on the skin.
• People's backs and buttocks rarely get scrubbed so dry skin accumulates.
• Few people in the shower bend over and actually wash (with a washcloth) the lower legs and feet.

These are just some examples of how we fail to do good hygiene.

Practicing good health and hygiene practices helps develop certain characteristics in personality. These begin with basic truths, and become more specific in personality traits. As examples:

1. The message "Take time to take care of yourself" implies that it does "take us time" to slow down and complete the steps. We shouldn't rush.
2. Since hygiene takes time, it helps form the quality of tenacity -- which is a word similar to "stubborn". Hygiene messages could easily be changed to "Stubbornly devote time to take care of yourself."
3. When we take time for any activity, we develop patience. Just as it takes time to lose weight, it takes time to prevent pimples or to have clean teeth.
4. Doing tasks of hygiene promotes body awareness and body image. We can only see ourselves truthfully if we look at our own skin.
5. Good hygiene promotes self-confidence.
6. Good hygiene enhances positive self-esteem.
7. Good hygiene promotes self-awareness.
8. Good hygiene encourages self-pride.
9. Good hygiene promotes a positive mental outlook.
10. Good hygiene aids in mental health. In fact, in many mental health problems, hygiene follows apathy and an "I don't care feeling" so hygiene suffers.
11. When we take time to look and smell good, our personality becomes the focus, not flaws of poor hygiene like body odors.
12. Good hygiene promotes social interactions and the ability to stand and relate to others.
