how this work is different

Many personal development programs focus solely on thought work and replacing negative thoughts or beliefs in order to create different results. We've learned that while this can be effective in the beginning, it is only a small fraction of the larger picture when it comes to our ability to change both conscious and subconscious patterns that exist in the brain and body.

 

Understanding how our brain, mind, and body are interconnected—embodied neuroscience—offers a more holistic approach than traditional thought work alone.

 

While our thoughts affect our emotions, behavior, and outcomes, our bodily sensations also influence our thoughts. Physical discomfort can lead to negative thoughts, affecting how we feel and act. Recognizing this connection emphasizes the importance of addressing both the mental and physical experiences together.

 

By uncovering how your thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations are linked and learning to work with them, you can dramatically improve both your inner and outer experience of life, leading to greater performance and inner peace (yes, both can coexist).

program focus

In Integrated Mindset, we focus on nurturing a growth mindset through self-directed neuroplasticity exercises, which reshape the brain's patterns. This process is enhanced by incorporating somatic practices such as breathwork and body-based tools for greater integration.

 

A growth mindset believes in evolving abilities, while a fixed mindset assumes intelligence is fixed. Modern neuroscience supports the concept of a growth mindset because our brains adapt to experiences and learning.

 

Through consistent actions, the brain forms new structures, enhancing efficiency and becoming a self-regulating learning system. This ability to learn is humanity's superpower.

 

The 10-week Integrated Mindset program, developed by Ryan Sawyer and neuroscience specialist Stefanie Faye, is designed to gradually change participants' mindsets. Through tailored exercises and lessons, it aims to create lasting shifts in how individuals perceive and approach life. By focusing on the brain's ability to adapt and grow, the program helps students embrace change and develop strategies for personal growth.

Taking the Integrated Mindset Coaching program with Ryan and Heidi Sawyer was a life-changing experience. The most profound shift for me came from fully embracing the concept of personal responsibility. I realized that my circumstances wouldn’t truly change until I took complete ownership of my life. The way Ryan and Heidi explained neuroscience and its connection to breath, body awareness, emotional intelligence, and limiting beliefs was the most comprehensive yet easy-to-understand approach I’ve encountered. It provided a depth and actionable steps to allow for lasting change of you commit to consistent action. You definitely get out what you put in. I highly recommend this program to high achievers, business leaders, entrepreneurs, athletes, or anyone with a deep desire to transform their circumstances or pursue a dream. If you've tried talk therapy to end toxic patterns but haven’t found success, this program could be the missing piece. Ryan and Heidi’s approach is truly transformative and gives you practical tools to break free from limiting beliefs and achieve your potential. Their program isn’t about finally “arriving” at a destination, it’s about giving you an understanding for the human condition as well as tools rooted in neuroscience to help you continue to transform your life with intention and the tools they teach will serve you over and over, again and again.

I had a great experience with Ryan where I learned how my thinking affected not only my current environment but influenced my future self. This course provides training and practical opportunities for growth that have translated into better performance…..as a dad, husband, business professional, and athlete. I highly recommend and this was time well spent! Kurt Sigler

I have done a few different forms of personal development, including counseling and leadership development courses, but Integrated Mindset got rid of all the fluff and got down to practical things that I could implement to continuously improve myself. Highly recommend working with Ryan if you are wanting to advance your life. You will be able to show up as you are and be accepted for what you bring to the table! Zach Wimberly

What a personal growth journey! I did not know what to expect from the Integrated Mindset program. I knew I was looking for ways that I could improve myself, my career, and/or my relationships. I was looking for the next step in my continuous journey for growth. Wow, did I find that with Ryan and this program. I got more out of the last 10 weeks then I have from any other course I have taken in my entire life (no joke). This course helped me understand what it takes for me to be the best version of myself so that I can in turn achieve my goals and live a life of servant leadership. The self-reflection exercises were incredibly insightful and helped me understand my core values, and who I want to become. I appreciated the mix of theory and practical applications. The daily habit-building challenges were particularly effective. The breathing exercises and mindfulness techniques taught in the course have already made a noticeable difference in my stress levels. The guided meditation sessions were incredibly calming and helped me develop a consistent practice for myself. These are just a few of the things I valued during this course, there many more. For me stress management including impulse control, anxiety management, overall mental wellbeing, and focus and concentration have all improved all while juggling the everyday push and pull of a busy career and family life. The impact this has had not only on myself, but also on those who are the closest to me has been tremendously beneficial. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to continue their growth journey, anyone that wants a new and different perspective on growth, or if you are simply just looking to be the best version of yourself in just about any aspect of your life.

I had the opportunity to have Ryan mentor me thru the Integrated Mindset program, and wow what a great program. I have been studying bits and parts of Ryan's program for over 30 years. But he has put all that I have learned and much more into a easy to follow and yet comprehensive program that can change your life if you implement his ideas and suggestions. I highly encourage you to take this program and follow his lead. I wish that I had had this program at a much early time of my life. Thanks for all of your hard work in putting this together and sharing it with the world. Dr. John Wood

Saying yes to the Integrated Mindset and Ryan's guidance was the best decision I could have made. The mental and emotional growth I experienced was truly life-changing. IM is challenging—in the best way possible. It pushes you to dig deep, do real soul-searching, and face your inner struggles head-on. At times, it was frustrating, but in ways that helped me grow. Ryan teaches you how to dissect your inner domain so you can outwardly project who you truly are. If you have trauma, pain, or anything holding you back, I encourage you to have faith and believe you can overcome it. Ryan, as a man of God and Christ-follower, showed me how to align God's word with my journey toward healing and growth. His teaching and guidance were instrumental in helping me let go and move forward. The Integrated Mindset course and Ryan's leadership helped me overcome obstacles I thought I’d carry forever. I’m deeply appreciative and grateful for the time I spent in this transformative experience. I'll always have Ryan to thank who our Heavenly Father placed in my life at the right time, to help me have clarity for my purpose and gave me his wisdom so I could apply his steps to move towards it. Damone Solomon

I knew I needed a breakthrough to get to the next level of business performance I was looking for. I just wasn't sure what I needed to get there. Integrated Mindset was exactly what I needed. The 10 week series of meetings, videos, assignments were just enough to help me be deliberate with my time, yet not overwhelming for this busy mom of two young children and business owner of two brick and mortars. If you are on the fence, just jump right in and trust the process, you wont regret it!!! Dr. Rachae Bell

Dark Background

It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Ryan and the Integrated Mindset program, in the pursuit of personal growth and mental wellbeing. This program has given me the tools and abilities to make incremental shifts in my life through daily intentional tasks and changing the narrative that manifests daily. I am constantly reminded of the importance of mental and physical health being a father of two beautiful daughters and a husband to my best friend. Coach thanks for the opportunity, and I look forward to the constant growth and development for the rest of my life. Jordan Ellisen

I wish I had jumped in sooner. I went back and forth about this course for over a year and so glad I finally went for it. As a mom to young kids I constantly felt like life was closing in on me and found myself lashing out at my kids, at my husband and just felt like I was drowning. Heidi and Ryan are incredible. They are both so knowledgeable in this field because of study but also their own experience and honestly helped change my life. They helped me fill my “toolbox” with so many effective strategies for many different situations. My relationships with my family has improved significantly but most important, my relationship with myself has changed completely. How I talk to myself, what stories I tell myself (without even realizing it), how I react to thoughts or feelings etc. Stop debating it, and just do it. You won’t regret it! Carlee Hansen

Dark Background

It has helped me reframe my thoughts, so that in my life I can create the feeling I want to have and then my actions follow accordingly. Creating a void to allow new experiences and possibilities to enter my life. Acknowledgment that the events that happen in our life are for us and although it may be painful at times, the universe is on our side. Deeper understanding of how our brain works and why certain habits will help you in your life. I definitely recommend the course if you are in to personal growth work. Jessica Rizzuto

Dark Background

The Integrated Mindset program has been one of the best self-development programs I have ever done. It has been a game changer. It allowed me to get in control of the way I respond to life. I am no longer agitated or reactive, and I have more confidence to show up as myself, without the fear of what others may think. I realized that I was using the work I was doing,( which was meaningful for me at one stage... )to distract myself from getting uncomfortable and making big changes in the direction I actually want my life to go. I'm excited for the future. 10/10 Elizabeth Fulop

I didn’t realize until the end of the course how much I had changed that even friends and family noticed! I loved the 10 week integrated mindset program! I didn’t realize until the end of the course how much I had changed that even friends and family noticed! This program has helped me to have the tools to respond the way I want to in stressful situations or conflict. It’s also helped me to feel more in control of my own thoughts and feelings rather than to feel that life is controlling me. As a young mom with two little kids it’s been important to me to learn how to regulate my own emotions as well as to be able to teach that to my children. Ryan Sawyer’s energy and enthusiasm for these topics is contagious and his genuine interest in bettering the lives of others is motivating and makes you feel like you can do anything! Mikyla Jenson

This program has made a huge difference for me and I am so grateful to have gone through it. From the very beginning, I learned so much and was able to integrate what I was learning into my day to day life. While there is a massive amount of content and the changes it brought in my life were significant, it never felt overwhelming. It was manageable. Before I started the program, I had a victim mentality and saw the world as a place that was set up for me to fail. Now, I am the hero and everything is for me. I highly recommend IHP to anyone and everyone! Jacob Zier

Dark Background

I embarked on this emotional journey not really knowing what to expect, but feeling like there were a lot of areas in my life that I'd lost my center and myself and needed a change and some relief. IHP coaching with Ryan was great and helped get me back to the person I had been most of my life. He puts you against yourself, which is a humbling but productive experience. I finished coaching over a month ago and so much opportunity in my business has opened up to me that I'm now just able to finally write a review. I would recommend this program to anyone. If you need to learn compassion for yourself, this program will teach you. If you are struggling professionally or as a parent, this program will help you. If you are struggling with a relationship, this program will help you focus on yourself and through that, give clarity. Life isn't easy. We all have our struggles. Understanding that not being perfect or all things to all people was pivotal to me and that falling short is part of the human experience, was eye opening. Less self blame. Own what's yours. Moving on and up! Lindsey Bledsoe

Ryan has an incredible ability to articulate complex models and make them simple. He brings out the best in everyone he comes into contact with, I have only incredible things to say about Heart First and their services.

I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to take their life and performance to the next level. Nolan Ulm

I decided to go ahead and do the 10-week IHP program and wow, was I surprised.I realized I had several limited beliefs, I was letting emotions run my days and had self sabotage as a reoccurring problem. After doing the program, I was set free from so many of my stories, my past hang-ups and my self-sabotage. It also taught me how to meditate, see God with a true open heart ♥️ . The science behind how the brain works and grows made me realize that I can now tap into my power from within. I am so thankful that I made the commitment as it opened my eyes, my heart and has literally changed my perspective, my awareness and my confidence in my God given abilities. Shaun Johnson

Where to begin! Entering my 30's, I found myself trapped in a cycle of sadness and regret. I got in contact with Ryan and did a virtual meeting to make sure that the program would be a good fit for me! We went over the workshops and what the outcome could be when I put the effort in and practice. I have continued to do everything and it has improved my outlook on life, it has improved my relationships with my wife and my children!! Thank you so much for being a great mentor and real human!!

The wisdom I got from them and the others who joined in the group, was life changing. You don't know what you don't know, until you know. No matter where you are in your journey, I highly recommended taking this course, diving in and act on what you learn. It may be small shifts in your daily routines, massive shifts in your life direction, to anything in between, that you are searching for...this is your starting point to make those pivots successfully. You won't regret choosing Integrated Mindset, with Heidi and Ryan, as your mentors and leaders on your next life chapters. Christy Michael

In this program, I learned so many tools that were the missing pieces for navigating through life I was able to implement them into daily practice immediately. The principles are so simple, they can be used by anyone. My teen daughter and young adult nephew are benefiting from what I learned. We’re all navigating the chaos of life. Having these tools makes everything easier, it helps make sense of the chaos. Barb Oviatt

Dark Background

I recently completed the Integrated Mindset course. Let me tell you what a God-send this was. I have been suffering with chronic pain for 40 years. Recently it has escalated to burning nerve pain all over in my skin. It is thought that this wind-up of the central nervous system is due to trauma experienced early in life. This understanding led me to seek medical intervention through a series if ketamine infusions with concurrent therapy from a specialist. The anesthesiologist who would be conducting the treatments stressed the mindset one should cultivate to assist the process in "re-wiring" the brain to hopefully stop the cycle of pain. I have availed myself of years of therapy to deal with the trauma, but felt I needed something more to help me prepare for my upcoming treatment journey. Enter IHP. Serendipitously, I found myself conversing with a complete stranger who told me of the transformation he had recently undergone which had changed his life in so many ways. Naturally I asked him about this and he told me of IHP. He kindly put me in touch with Ryan Sawyer, co-founder, and I realized what they were teaching was exactly what my doctor was wanting me to achieve. I signed up for the Integrated Mindset course coached by Ryan's wife, co-founder Heidi Sawyer. I participated in a small women's group with a huge amount of course content, practices, and weekly Zoom meetings. The content involved training videos, somatic breath work, and journaling, and much person-to-person support. I found this to be exactly what I needed as the group prepared me to be open to the positive changes I was seeking. Coincidentally, the ten-week course ended just one week before my treatments began. The treatments are causing an improvement in the pain, bringing it to a tolerable level. At one point in treatment, I had become quite anxious and the doctor came and sat with me. He guided me through a breathing technique which was exactly one I had learned in the group. I was quickly able to return to a place of peace and openness. I don't believe I could be achieving these results without the work I have done with Heidi and the group. An added bonus is that you get unlimited access to all the course content for life! I have already revisited several videos when I have found myself stuck or reverting to an old way of thinking and responding to life. Whatever your journey, if you seek kind, compassionate, knowledgeable assistance to reach your goals, Heidi and Ryan can help you achieve them. Susan Lawlor
