WHAT IS MENTAL FITNESS?

Mental Fitness (PQ)

If you’re physically fit, you can climb steep hills without physical stress.

If you’re mentally fit, you can handle life’s great challenges without mental stress or negative emotions that sabotage you. You’ll be happier and perform better.

​Research Foundation

Positive Intelligence is a synthesis of neuroscience, cognitive and positive psychology, and performance science. The research is the basis of Shirzad Chamine’s New York Times bestselling book Positive Intelligence and Stanford lectures.

How you and everyone else self sabotages

A key to Mental Fitness is to weaken the internal Saboteurs who generate all your “negativity” in the way they respond to challenges. Your Saboteurs cause all your stress, anxiety, self-doubt, frustration, regret, shame, guilt, and unhappiness. Saboteurs include the Judge, Controller, Avoider, Victim, Stickler and 5 others.

​​

Your wonderful “Sage” emotions originate from a different region of your brain to the Saboteurs. Your Sage brain engages with challenges in ways that produce more positive emotions like curiosity, empathy, creativity, calm, and clear-headed action. By learning how to notice when your Saboteurs are around and how to engage your Sage will help you be more content both at work and home.
