Hope provides a positive vision for the future about what's possible, motivating us to look forward

People with high levels of hope have better physical and mental health researchers say
Feeling hopeful is associated with better mental health
To have hope, it's vital we feel a sense of meaning in our lives particularly during a crisis, having meaning or purpose can protect our mental wellbeing.
