Group Coaching Event: 7 Essentials for Optimum Mental Health

Special thanks to VCollective, Wrensilva, Experia Creative, and those who joined our group coaching event last Monday. We held space for all to learn and explore the 7 essential activities necessary for optimum mental health. Each participant took away an inspired action to try out as a personal goal in 2020.

We are bombarded daily with information on how to be physically healthy and resilient; a combination of exercise, rest and nutrition. What we don’t hear about, is what it takes to keep our minds alert, creative and resilient; it’s more than exercise, rest and nutrition, and each of us needs our own unique combination of these seven activities: Focus Time, Play Time, Connecting Time, Physical Time, Time In, Down Time, and Sleep Time.

The Healthy Mind Platter, developed by Scientists Dr. Daniel J. Siegel, clinical professor of psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine, and Dr. David Rock, executive director of the NeuroLeadership Institute, is a framework to help us better appreciate the impact of “mental nutrients”. By engaging daily “servings,” we help promote integration in our lives, enable our brain to coordinate and balance its activities.
