Unit 8: Optimal Well-being: Psychological, Spiritual and Physical Keys to Health and Thriving


Review the exercises and practice sessions you have completed in this course. (Loving Kindness, Subtle mind, Visualization, meditation etc.) Choose two practices that you have determined to be most beneficial. How can you implement these practices in your personal life to foster “mental fitness”? Provide specific examples.

I have chosen the Loving Kindness and the Meditation Practice combined with power yoga. 

The Loving Kindness I use when I am alone and usually after my daily nap.  I use this exercise when it is quiet and there are no distractions. I learned to use the Meditation in power yoga because the harder the course becomes, the more I am able to focus and keep my mind from wandering. Don’t get me wrong, I like the restorative yoga but my mind is too active for those courses and the more difficult the course, the more clarity and peace I find within.
