How do you train your mental and emotional health?

Dr. Anhalt focuses on the 7 Traits of Emotional Fitness — just as cholesterol levels, flexibility, and stamina contribute to physical health, these are the traits that represent a person’s mental fitness (or lack thereof).

  • Do you understand and manage your own emotions? Can you see how you, uniquely, see the world?

  • Do you have the ability to understand and sit with other people’s emotions? Can you allow yourself to feel?

  • Are you comfortable with discomfort? Can you slow down, be present, and make thoughtful choices?

  • Can you tolerate the difference between what you want to be true and what is true?

  • Are you able to say “yes, and”? Can you remove constraints and think creatively?

  • Do you bounce forward through setbacks and failures? Do you learn from your mistakes and struggles?

  • Can you put words to your needs and expectations? Are you able to talk through issues in a productive way?

Dr. Anhalt can help your team flex their feels and break an emotional sweat to level up their mental fitness.
