- mental health – thought patterns, decision making
- emotional health – half of the brain is the “emotional brain”; how you cope
- physical health – your brain is an organ and it’s connected to every internal function in the body; sleep, cellular repair, gut health, nutrition

- relationship health – how you handle conflict, connection with others
