A review of the Oscar-winning movie, Silver Linings Playbook, brings me great inspiration and hope for the future of Emotional Fitness Training.

The following is an excerpt from an article  by Dr. Leon I. Rosenberg, the medical director and head of the Center for Emotional Fitness in Cherry Hill, NJ. Here is the link to Dr Rosenberg's full article: p-Ed: Film casts important light on mental health issues | Courier-Post | courierpostonline.com…

It's been an interesting time adjusting to 'retirement' after a long career in nursing. Forty odd years actually and the challenge has been to try and figure out who I am. It seems that for the largest part of my life I have defined myself as a nurse. More so than a mother, wife etc - you know all those tags we hang on ourselves and for what reason? I am still learning, still searching, and still evolving I guess. At first it all seemed a little confusing, trying to sort out the what and the who and the like. Now it has become a great adventure. I have so many wonderful models that I have met here on Wordpress. It is amazing how close you can feel to those who brave the pages each day or week or month to share a little of themselves.

    I have not seen Silver Linings, and now I feel I must. It sounds as if it has important things to say…

    I haven’t seen the movie, but it’s on my list.

    Love your header photo! We’re getting a little bit of snow right now, but not the big fat flakes that are so lovely.

    Yes, I just saw this movie and I thought it was great. Ten Stars.

    Danial Goleman’s book Emotional Intelligence is sitting here waiting to be read. It’s about halfway down the pile. Maybe now I’ll move it to first place.

    Another similar good movie is “The Soloist.” Similar only in that the issue of mental health is addressed and recognized. It’s not as funny and it’s not as dynamic but has a good message that medicine may not be a cure. The cure is in other things like human companionship.

    Thanks.
