I also thought that Mana is aether is life-force?
I need to consult the Sounsyy as I could be entirely wrong here. @w@
Well, based on head-canon and logical thought, I assume the following:
MP --> Mana/Aether
HP --> Life force, a mixture of health and aether, but to a more primal degree
Then there's your soul, which I guess is weaved in between the two.
I assume this because of the "drain" ability used by arcanists, where they are able to convert a target's HP into MP, which means that they are both tied together in a sense. Same thing applies to  the BLM's "convert"
