Our virtual programs provide a modern approach to finding comprehensive solutions to limbic system impairment (LSI), which is often related to chronic symptoms of anxiety, fatigue, pain, dizziness, & stress.
We combine neuroscience, neuro-linguistic programming, & a little extra TLC to help regulate your nervous system to set your physical body up for success.
The Vital-Side 4-Step Method

Hi, y'all!
I'm Lindsay Mitchell,
... founder & CEO of Vital-Side and your personal brain retraining coach! Vital-Side was conceptualized through my own experience with chronic illness, as well as my medical background as a physician assistant and extensive neuroplasticity training, to provide a unique framework designed to effectively calm the chronic stress response and support the body in its optimal functioning. What I enjoy most about Vital-Side is getting to know my members personally, and I chat with them daily on our private forum. They can tell you, I love to laugh, go on hikes with my 110 lb. dog, and find creative ways to make brain retraining approachable & fun.
What is
Vital-Side?

These tools are non-invasive, empowering, and backed by the latest science. Our approach is simple: let's rewire the brain to optimize its functioning and allow the body do the rest.

I was skeptical and had no idea what to expect, but Lindsay explained the science behind each step we worked through. When I started to do the exercises, I noticed a change within the first week. Now, I stick to doing them all the time because I know they make me feel better.
—Rob
Being able to do this from home via video was very personal. Lindsay is so positive that it is almost impossible not to feel uplifted. It is amazing how much lighter and more positive I felt after learning I could heal myself! I immediately felt better after doing a few minutes of practice.
