Fostering Mental Fitness

Of the various exercises that we have practiced in the last few months in the Creating Wellness class, I found the visualization and mediation exercises to be the most effective and beneficial.  As I have stated over and over again, I was very reluctant to even give these exercises a shot at all.  However, after actually trying the exercises out with genuine effort, I found them to be a good tool for mental health.

I believe that the key to implementing these exercises into my life in order to foster mental fitness is to make it a routine.  These are mental exercises.  Just like with physical exercise, one must complete the exercise with enough repetitions in order to reap the benefit and to get the results desired.  The key is to make this a lifestyle change.  Make these exercises a priority.  Over time, I truly believe that, with these exercises, I will reach a higher level of mental fitness.

  1. Anthony I think sometimes we are reluctant to try new things but once we have tried them we are surprised at the outcome, do you feel like you would continue these exercise even after classes are over? I know I am they are very helpful to reduce stress. Thank you Anthony best wishes
