Energy Management
MENTAL FITNESS COACHING optimises our physiology, psychology and behaviours to help us manage our energy, so we can enjoy life and perform well over time. Energy management is key to mental wellbeing and good daily habits help to manage energy and optimise long-term brain health. How we eat affects our energy, and blood sugar and mood throughout the day. How we work, socialise, exercise, rest, play and sleep determines our energy levels and subjective quality of life.

"Good lifestyle management is preventative medicine."

Movement and Rest
The body and brain need movement, rest and sleep to function well. This helps us regulate our nervous system, mood, and stress responses. Optimising these elements each day impacts our energy, effectiveness and longevity.
Human connection
Humans are social animals and we have not evolved to be "always on". In today's world, balancing work and screen time with play and real human connection enhances energy, confidence, health and happiness.
