HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR 'MENTAL FITNESS

If you are looking to improve your mental fitness, here are the tricks;

Daily meditation

Develop a sustainable daily routine taking around 15 minutes. You can use a beginner’s program from apps, including Tripp, to help get the basics. It helps shift your attention to the positive world, optimizing your mental wellness.

Gratitude journal

Have a word document on a physical book or computer and update it with appreciation phrases. This helps establish more positive feelings. Additionally, it will shift your thoughts to hopefulness. Research suggests a good association between optimism and enhanced brain health.

Practice mindfulness

Mindfulness involves total body awareness. Sit in a quiet place, close your eyes, and feel your body part by part intentionally. Start from the head going down to your toes. Any part with tension requires more focus to understand what is happening in your body.
