Unit 8: Optimal Well-Being



Unit 8: Optimal Well-Being
            The two practices that I have learned through this course that I think are most beneficial are Loving-Kindness and a Watchful Mind. I think these two are the most beneficial because they help to release stress and put the mind and body at ease. Implementing these practices into my personal life to foster mental fitness would be a matter of making time for my-self a few times a week and focusing on relaxing my mind. I can implement a watchful mind on a daily basis by letting my thoughts come and go and not lingering on any of them. Bringing Loving-Kindness into my life would be more of sending out good vibes and well wishes to everyone I come across. A good example would be if I hear of someone having troubles I can sit for a few moments and send out healthy and helpful thoughts to that person. I think both practices will help with my mental fitness and overall integral health and wellness.
