Most likely - yes! That said, it depends on what you’re working on when it comes to your mental health (see the illness v. wellness question below). For mental health diagnoses (anxiety, depression, bipolar), spending time to understand and work through “big T and little t” traumas, and/or going through a difficult transition, therapy can be so impactful. In addition, ensuring you have and *maintain* the right daily behaviors that promote positive mindset and wellness are key - no matter what you’re going through. That’s where we come in! We have plenty of clients who find immense value from the program, in therapy or not, but we do suggest you speak with your Therapist if there's any question about timing or fit given the work you're doing with them.

Great question! Mental Health is a large category that can include our “emotional, psychological, and social well-being.” We break these things down using the “Illness-Wellness'' continuum (HT: Dr. John Travis): on the left side is illness, things like mild depression to severe bi-polar and on the right side is wellness: things like vitamin supplements and self help books.

At MYNDY we define mental fitness as the things you do on a regular basis to prevent illness and promote wellness. Our definition is formally: the sustained and proactive “practice of doing small exercises, to improve the rhythm of your life”. These exercises pull from across disciplines like neuroscience, psychology and behavioral science to practice things like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), breathwork, meditation, journaling, drawing, visualization and so much more. The MYNDY model pulls them together in a holistic, easy to use framework for you to practice each day.

Are you dealing with a high workload, frustrating people, or feeling unimportant leading you to feel tired, disappointed, stressed, overwhelmed, negative, burned out or alone? We got you.

Our trainers are experts in our mental wellness model and are there to help you change your behaviors by making a do-able plan and supporting you as your accountability partner! We help deal with challenges to your mental wellness like stress and burnout to promote feelings of calm, focus and energy so you can spend less time in your lows, and more time feeling good. 

We meaningfully complement your meditation practice (see why we’re different), therapy visits, and other wellness routines. However, we are not a mental health company and our trainers are *not* mental health professionals. In the same way you would never go to the gym and expect to heal a sprained ankle, you wouldn’t come to our mental fitness programs and expect to heal a mental health issue like anxiety or bipolar.*

MYNDY is built for the busy, modern professional, or corporate athlete, who spends most of their time 1. Helping others and/or 2. At work (usually in front of a computer or phone). They’re usually leaders, managers, parents, or individuals who spend their lives helping others, but have few places to go where they’re supported as an individual. They also spend a lot of time at or thinking about work and have a hard time turning off literally and figuratively. We know you’re busy and don’t have yet another hour in your day, let alone an extra 30 minutes for something new. We got you.

After years of working with individuals, we are bringing our mental fitness training programs to organizations. We help them to improve focus, resilience, performance and overall excitement of employees (via: human accountability + tech application). We give companies a simple, research-backed framework for their wellness programming and make it actually-doable given busy schedules and wallets (re: time commitment + cost). 

We've worked to keep things simple in terms of our initial pilot so it's super easy for you to opt-in as an individual level (with a credit card) before socializing MYNDY with the wider organization. We encourage leaders to reach out to our team if you’re interested in learning more at team@myndy.co!
