I love working out and want to remain mentally fit. I realize that my mental fitness is just as important. Need advice.

That fact that you "love working out" means you are deriving a sense of emotional and physical wellbeing from the activities you are currently doing. Keep it up if you are feeling satisfied with both of these benefits (e.g; good endorphins increased, positive and objective body image, self-confidence).
Regular cardio conditioning, in my experience, not only helps improve mood and overall energy levels, but also a clarity, focus and sharpness in cognitive fitness...In other words, it is just as functional for daily life as hard weight training, IMHO. The basic idea is to know your individual needs and how to prioritize them, in order to accomplish both short-term and long-term goalsFact: My first-generation uncle was a boxer who fought Sugar Ray Robinson! He also fought in the war, sacrificing the career he deeply loved, so people could have the right to freedom.

Thats wise and true, as those once said, a healthy mind and healthy body always coexist together. I realized however that a healthy mind is most important. If your mind is clear, organized and not easily distracted, you will plan far better and reach your goals what they are, financial, physical or personal. the secret is in the mind.. always!

Healthy mind is important as well as a healthy body. I've met plenty of people at the gym that focus on one to the extent of ignoring the other. You can have the best body in the world and terrible mental health.

Hello, I"m also new here and glad to be a part of this forum. Great to hear you value mental fitness as much as physical! Prioritize self-care, practice mindfulness, stay socially connected & seek professional help if needed. I’m looking forward to knowing something or sharing something about Psychologist in Sarasota.
Thank You
