What to Expect


What is Life Time Mind?

Life Time Mind is a MindCoaching program that unlocks your mind and elevates your performance to a whole new level. Using a mind-body approach and a three-step method, we assess and coach each individual in elevating the five key components that affect your Healthy Way of Life mindset: exercise, nutrition/supplements, sleep, physical health and mental wellness.

Why do I need it?

You would never run your car year after year without tuning up the engine. The same goes for your mind. Research shows that being proactive with your mental wellness creates enormous long-term benefits.

What will it do for me?

Life Time Mind will support you accessing a current picture of how healthy your mindset is today while also offering you a tailored plan for the future. Through assessments, mental workouts and supportive products and services — we’ll help you achieve a healthy and thriving mindset.

How do I know if I need it?

Everyone should learn how to optimize their state of mind. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and stressed out, trying to increase your focus or performance, facing obstacles in reaching goals, stalled out progress in weight loss or workouts, frustrating relationship with food, experiencing unbalanced moods such as feeling anxious or down, or experiencing fears about aging and memory — Life Time Mind will guide you in pushing past your obstacles, and establishing a blueprint for future success.

How does it work?

Beginning with a complementary session with a MindCoach, you’ll get familiar with the MindReady, MindSet, MindGo method and how it fulfills our mind-body approach. If you’d like to get started, you’ll be scheduled for a MindReady session where you’ll take your assessments. Once completed, your MindCoach will review your assessments with you and offer you a personalized plan to increase your performance, along with all of the support you need to get there. The next step is MindSet and the individual Mental Workouts with your coach, as you work through your plan to reach your desired outcome. Finally, MindGo is the continuing support through your coach and everything Life Time has to offer, to ensure your goals are met with success.

What is a Life Time MindCoach?

Your Life Time MindCoach is an expert in the fields of performance coaching and mental wellness. Their job is to facilitate the MindReady, MindSet, MindGo experience for you — offering performance coaching, assessment, supportive products and services, and education to help you achieve your designated goals.

What is a MindCoach session like?

All MindCoach sessions are based off of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Coaching, a blend of thought-shifting techniques and mental stress reduction. This model has a wealth of research supporting its efficacy and success in addressing a broad scope of mental wellness concerns. Each of the MindSet Mental Workouts provide a consistently structured mind exercise that includes activating and relaxing your mind. Check out our service menu for all of the Mental Workouts we offer.
