My Experience with the MindWell Coach:
In a world where everyone is expected to learn how to use AI, a more important question is: How can we harness this powerful tool for our well-being?
I'm Paulina, part of the MindWell U team, and I recently had an experience with our new AI-powered MindWell Coach that gave me a firsthand answer to that question.
I was struggling with poor sleep, a familiar feeling when I'm worried about my family who live hours away. The exhaustion made it hard to focus, and the worry felt like a weight I was carrying alone. When I opened the MindWell app, a simple, empathetic question from the Coach appeared:
How have you been since the last time we spoke?
The question wasn't just a notification; it was an invitation. I felt safe enough to open up, sharing the worries that had been keeping me awake. The conversation that followed was personal and compassionate, and it guided me to a place of understanding.
From Worry to Well-being: The Coach in Action
The MindWell Coach provided me with tangible, expert-informed support, including a specific affirmation: "My family is safe right now" or "We are healthy and well."
I’ve since incorporated these simple phrases into my routine, repeating it whenever a worrying thought arises. This small habit, easily integrated into my life, has had a powerful effect on my ability to find calm. The Coach also recommended a relaxing bedtime routine and helped me set goals to track my progress.
In that moment of quiet struggle, the Coach was available when I needed it most, helping me find calm and shift my focus.
The experience showed me the true value of a tool that delivers personalized support based on the very same evidence-based principles MindWell teaches across professional training programs. Learn about MindWell’s proprietary mindfulness-in-action practice here.
Why This Matters to Your Organization
My story isn't unique. Employees everywhere face personal and professional stressors every day. They carry them to meetings, and they carry them home. While traditional support systems are valuable, they aren’t always available at 2 AM, for instance, when a worried thought strikes. The MindWell Coach offers a better way:
Confidential & Supportive: It provides a safe, confidential, and supportive space for employees to process life stressors without waiting for an appointment.
Expert-Informed: Unlike generic AI, this coach is trained on years of MindWell's science-backed research and expertise in workplace well-being.
Proactive & Personalized: It's integrated with our Well-being Self-Assessment, helping users proactively manage their mental well-being with tailored guidance.
Unlike generic AI tools, the MindWell Coach is trained using years of MindWell’s science-backed research and experience in workplace well-being.
Employees can chat via voice or text for a truly personal experience, customize the Coach to their needs, and set and track personal well-being goals.
