How Spiritual Concepts Improved My Mental Health

I used to think mindfulness and spirituality were “hippy ideas.” Then I read authors who explained them through neuroscience, behavior, and emotional regulation.

Concepts like acceptance, non-attachment, equanimity, and impermanence became practical tools. They softened my inner critic, improved my relationships, and made me more resilient.

Education didn’t just change my habits, it changed my character. Calm minds train better. Regulated nervous systems adapt faster.

The more I learned about the nervous system, the more I realized strength training is one of the best tools for regulating it. 

That’s why ReadyCoach is built around consistent, balanced workouts. The kind that help you stay grounded, present, and adaptable. The app is a practical extension of the same principles that improved my mental and emotional health.
