Vitality

Vital person - is an alert and fresh person and also is full of life and energy.
Vitality is classically defined as having physical and mental energy. When vital, people experience a sense of enthusiasm, aliveness, and energy available to the self. Vitality is associated with feelings of vigor, activated positive affect, and calm energy, all entailing positively toned, energized states. Subjective vitality differs from activation or energy per se because many forms of activation, such as anger, anxiety, or arousal, are unrelated to subjective vitality or negatively related to it. Instead, vitality represents energy one can harness or regulate for purposive actions.
Although it is a salient subjective state, vitality is more than just an experiential concern: It is robustly associated with behavioral and objective health outcomes. Subjective vitality has been linked with specific configurations of brain activation and positive response mechanisms. Moreover, when in vital states, people are more active and productive, cope better with stress and challenge, and report more excellent mental health. In addition, growing evidence suggests that the activated forms of positive affect associated with vitality render people more resilient to physical and viral stressors and less vulnerable to illness.
