Puzzled and Confused

Life seems more challenging right now. With all the complications at home and abroad – and countless personal and cultural considerations – it’s easy to react emotionally instead of rationally.

Piecing it Together

Fortunately, techniques are available to help you lead a more peaceful existence. Imagine setting realistic goals, connecting authentically with others, and honoring your worth and accomplishments.

Completing the Picture

Isn’t it time you stop seeing life as a problem and start accepting and utilizing all of life’s dynamics? Wouldn’t it be a huge relief to feel calm, present, and hopeful amongst all the chaos? Let us show you how.

WHY I DO THIS WORK

About the Founder of The Mental Gym

I was a very active kid – experiencing both the wins and losses of competitive sports. Through these athletic experiences, I learned that succeeding or failing was not necessarily determined by a scoreboard or trophy.

As I matured, I became aware of my inner-dialog: I began measuring my performances by on how present I was – even if this meant not winning every race.

As an aspiring young adult, I lost sight of my adolescent wisdom: I envisioned what society considered award-winning and abruptly changed course. My focus quickly shifted to setting and attaining tougher goals before I could be happy or proud of myself.

This never-ending quest for satisfaction spiraled me toward physical burnout and emotional disillusionment.
