Listen "Mental Wellness That Sticks: Brain-Based Fitness, Meditation Habits, and the 20-Question Brain Type Test with PJ Glassey"
Episode Synopsis
On The Soul Mirror with Saima, we unpack how your brain—not just your body—drives sustainable health. PJ Glassey, founder of XGym and creator of a 20-question Brain Type Test (16 types), explains why most “one-size-fits-all” fitness advice fails, how to build motivation that lasts, and why focus training (including simple meditation) strengthens the prefrontal cortex for better discipline, decision-making, and habit change. We dig into expectation traps, practical food swaps, and the “Why” method that keeps you consistent. This is a direct, no-fluff guide to re-wiring the mind while training the body—so results stick long after the New Year hype fades.
About the guest:
PJ Glassey is a psychology-meets-exercise-science coach, founder of XGym, and creator of the Brain Type Test that personalizes mindset tools for fitness and mental wellness. He blends research, field testing, and brain training techniques to help people build durable habits and healthier lives.
Key takeaways:
Expectation traps cause most drop-offs. Replace “six-pack in 3 weeks” goals with one daily action that makes you healthier than yesterday.
Custom beats generic. Brains differ; methods must too. A 20-question, 16-type quiz tailors tools to your wiring.
Motivation starts; discipline finishes. Train discipline by strengthening the prefrontal cortex through short, daily focus practices.
Meditation made simple. One minute daily—focus only on the sensation of your breath. Every “catch and return” is a brain rep.
Rewire while you train. Pair physical workouts with brain training to make changes stick and avoid yo-yo cycles.
The “Why” ladder. Ask “Why?” repeatedly until you reach the real reason; post it where you’ll see it to sustain action.
Food shifts, not food wars. Swap and experiment (e.g., higher-fiber options); keep what works, discard what doesn’t.
Progress is personal. Ten years or one year—pace is individual. Consistency beats intensity.
Trainers aren’t templates. If a tactic fails, it’s data, not a character flaw. Iterate to fit your brain type.
Focus-based workouts build attention, reduce brain fog, and can help with distractibility when performed with intention.
