Cognitive-emotional fitness

cervello1

To promote and foster personal growth, it is necessary to enhance the effectiveness of the mind in the multiplicity of its functions.

Cognitive-emotional fitness aims to help a person refine his or her ability to make appropriate choices designed to support his or her mental and physical well-being. There is evidence that a person’s cognitive and emotional capacities do not diminish with age but provide effective performance and increased vitality. Steven Rose writes that “the mind is larger than the brain,” and mental processes are evolved and functionally adaptive properties essential to human survival.

Evolution means “change over time,” in fact the need to grow and evolve is inherent in human nature and the individual’s ability to adapt in the environment in which he or she lives.
