PEDAGOGICAL BASIS FOR STRENGTHENING THE MENTAL STATE OF STUDENTS IN THE PROCESS OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Abstract

The article presents a study of pedagogical foundations for strengthening the mental state of students in the process of physical education, identifying the role of physical activity in improving not only mental health, but also the overall quality of life. The problem is especially relevant in the context of the modern information and digital society, when a sedentary lifestyle prevails over the physical activity of students. It is physical activity that helps reduce stress levels, strengthen the mental state, improve mood, and increase overall performance in general. Mental cognitive processes (attention, perception, thinking, memory, imagination, speech) play a key role in the development of personality, forming its unique qualities, behavior, and modes of activity. In this regard, the study of pedagogical foundations aimed at strengthening the mental state of students becomes an urgent task.
