LLPBRAIN - Brain and Mental Health
Course Description
Mental Fitness Group
Mental Fitness is your ability to respond to life's challenges with a positive mindset. This course on Mental Fitness teaches a powerfully simple approach that can be life-changing.
If you engage and practice, you can expect these results:
- More resilience
- Emotional self-control
- Stress management
- Ability to respond positively to any situation
- Better relationships
- Greater productivity
The course is based on the book Positive Intelligence, a NY Times best-seller by Shirzad Chamine. We will take this radically simple approach to mental fitness into practice and, hopefully, habit! Adopting the mental fitness practices in the book takes practice, and when practiced, it can be life-changing. With practice, this can change your ”baseline” level of happiness and emotional self-management.
The course is structured as three meetings with the expectation that you will support each other’s learning and you may even become an autonomous peer coaching group.
You will benefit from this course if:
- your critical self-talk is harshly negative, or
- something that doesn’t go right can ruin your morning, or
- you find yourself dreading encounters with certain people in your life, or
- you’d like to be upset, angry, or annoyed less often.
