Who is this program for?

This program is for anyone looking to treat their symptoms naturally, and it's not just for women! Whether you are new to “eating clean” and living a holistic lifestyle, or you’re already familiar with this lifestyle, this protocol will give you the tools for a new start. This diet plan isn’t your average 100% organic, gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, corn-free elimination diet — it's a carefully selected list of foods that Dr. Brogan has identified as potential culprits behind your symptoms. The combination of the core elements of this program during a dedicated 44-day window has helped many resolve lifelong symptoms. We know there are many dietary and detox protocols out there, but this one is different.

Is this for me?

What topics are covered?

This program will cover critical health freedom topics, like:

  • The system of fear and control perpetuated by the conventional Western medical model
  • The religion of science
  • The dangers of your current diet and industrial food

This program will empower you to:

  • Move past fear and trust your intuition
  • Shift your beliefs in support of your healing
  • Embrace nourishing foods
  • Harness the power of daily meditation and detox practices
Is this for me?

I’m familiar with these concepts and I eat clean. Can this program still help me?

If you already eat clean, meditate, detox, and understand the importance of these pillars of wellness, the VMR program can still be supportive! We believe that this program will give you a unique opportunity to focus on all of these elements in a dedicated container. Many have found that just being in the VMR space was the missing link in their healing journey.

Is this for me?

What if I don’t cook?

Diet is the core element of this program and the ability to source food and prepare meals (or have them prepared) is critical. The program does not provide meal prep support.

Is this for me?

Is this program only for treating anxiety and depression?

The Vital Mind Reset program can be done by anyone looking to achieve mental health and wellness naturally. Dr. Brogan used this same protocol for each patient, no matter their diagnosis or medical history. Women and men around the world have successfully treated not only mental health disorders with this program, but some have seen total resolution of symptoms like insomnia, brain fog, fatigue, blood sugar imbalance, and thyroid disorders, to name a few. This program was not specifically designed for weight loss.

Is this for me?

Will the program help me come off my medications? Do I have to be on medications to take this program?

The Vital Mind Reset program is appropriate for all stages of your health journey. Dr. Brogan used this protocol in her practice to help patients heal without medications, with patients hoping to taper, and with patients hoping to recover from withdrawal symptoms after stopping medications. We believe that it’s never too late to benefit from the VMR program on your healing journey. This program will not require you to stop or taper your medications, and it is not just for those who are on medications. Many people choose to explore medication tapers following the program. Before Dr. Brogan made any changes to a patient’s medication dose, they engaged a program almost identical to this one. It is important that the body and mind be optimized prior to careful medication tapers. The tapering process is highly individualized, so it’s not possible to provide specific tapering instructions that everyone can follow in this program. However, our bonus module on tapering that unlocks after the 44 days includes some resources that we think will be helpful if tapering is something you wish to pursue.

Is this for me?

What if I have a physical illness in addition to my mental health concerns?

You should consult your personal physician or mental health professional before you initiate any program. This program is not meant to diagnose or treat any disease. You may have special dietary considerations to consider. Everyone is different.

Is this for me?

Should I get permission from my doctor?

We encourage all those interested in exploring lifestyle medicine to work with a practitioner versed in the art and science of nutritional healing. Referral engines are linked on our resources page. Unfortunately, nutrition is not a part of conventional medical training, so consultation with an allopathic MD may leave you feeling confused.

Is this for me?

I’m vegan/vegetarian. Can I still do the program?

While the core of the VMR program centers around a diet that is rich in animal foods as a tool for healing the mind and body, we’ve recently added vegetarian recipes for those with personal or ethical concerns, which Dr. Brogan discusses more here.

It’s worth noting that Dr. Brogan does not have clinical data from her medical practice or VMR program suggesting that a fully vegetarian diet will result in the same outcomes discussed here. We believe that a vegetarian diet during VMR will be more for those who are looking to optimize health, rather than those who are dealing with acute issues.

Our meal plans are not entirely vegan-friendly.

The success that we know is possible through this program and discuss on this page is based on the original diet consisting of animal foods. Therefore, we do not endorse the vegetarian diet we include for radical healing or for anyone with the intention of a medication taper. However, we do think it’s still possible to benefit from this program in some way while following the other elements of the program.

Please also note that the program content will still reference the benefits of an animal foods diet.

Is this for me?

What is the format of the course?

Each lesson is available in text and audio, and includes a brief video from Dr. Brogan with her key takeaways. In addition to weekly lessons and meditation videos, the program offers worksheets, meal plans, recipes and shopping lists that you can download.

Program format and content

What is the diet like? What should I be prepared for?

The VMR diet most closely resembles the popular Whole30 diet, with additional eliminations.

The diet in this protocol will begin on day 16 after approximately two weeks of mindset shifts. The diet instructions will be made available on day 12 and you will be expected to begin on day 16 and continue until day 44. You do not need to be prepared to begin the diet on day one!

Program format and content

Will this course give me meal plans to follow?

Yes! Joining VMR will give you access to comprehensive meal plans, shopping lists and recipes you can follow. However, you don’t need to follow the recipes or meal plans to achieve success in this program. As long as you follow our recommended “foods to avoid” guidelines, you can eat anything you want in any quantity.

Program format and content

What kind of meditation is part of Vital Mind Reset?

Meditation is a vital part of the program and Dr. Brogan shares her expertise in kundalini yoga within each module. The lessons feature a 3-minute video guiding you through each meditation, or “kriya.” If you find that kundalini is not for you, you are welcome to meditate any way you choose.

Program format and content

What is the difference between the information in Dr. Brogan’s books and the Vital Mind Reset program?

The VMR program covers many of the same principles you will find in Dr. Brogan’s books, NYT Bestseller A Mind of Your Own and Own Your Self. While the books include an outline of the same protocol and just a few recipes to get started, the online program takes your healing journey to the next level. The course is designed as a step-by-step, “one day at a time” guide through the program, with lessons broken down into 44 days. The program also includes a trove of resources that you won’t find in the books, including a coffee enema guide, shopping lists, meal plans, over 50 recipes, meditation videos, a guide for beyond the 44 days, and more!

Program format and content

What is your refund/cancellation policy?

This investment is a non-refundable purchase. We do not offer refunds or payment plan cancellations before, during, or after the program for any reason.

We would recommend anyone considering joining this group to read this page in its entirety, and to ask our team any remaining questions prior to registration. You can read our detailed policy here.

Support

Does this program include personalized advice or time with Dr. Brogan or her team?

The VMR program was designed so that anyone can take control of their own healing. The protocol and lessons in the program are essentially the same as what Dr. Brogan used with her patients, no matter the diagnosis or medical history.

The program does not include personalized access, calls, sessions, testing or medical history review with Dr. Brogan or her team.

Any personal questions related to your medical history or current conditions are best directed to your holistically-minded practitioner.

Many ask if we are able to provide a formal invoice for their purchase to submit to insurance. Please note that by purchasing VMR, you are not considered to be a patient of Dr. Brogan. Therefore, we are not able to provide this information.

Support

Are there any additional expenses when doing the program?

The program will ask you to eat 100% organic for 30 days, which may be an added expense for those not eating this way prior to the program.

Coffee enemas are also recommended in the program and the supplies needed can cost around $50 depending on what items you may already have at home.

You'll be asked to cook all meals in non-toxic cookware, so this may be the greatest expense for those who only have non-stick cookware at home.

You'll also be asked to start replacing all toxic cleaning and personal care products. These replacements can be gradual and do not have to happen all at once or be completed before the program is finished.

The program does not include supplements.

Support

Can I give this program as a gift to a friend or family member?

Because of the level of personal commitment required to complete this program, we do not recommend that you register on behalf of another or purchase this program as a gift. If you choose to do this, kindly note our refund policy.

Support

Can I do the program at my own pace or skip ahead?

The VMR protocol is meant to be done over 44 consecutive days. The program materials are released on a schedule, so you will only have access to the next 6-8 days as the program progresses. For best results, we do not recommend reading more than one lesson each day.

If you find that you'd like to go through at a slower pace, you can feel free to do so. However, the results discussed on this page are based on doing the program as presented. The diet should be done for 30 consecutive days.

Many people join the program hoping to gain access to the diet information or our medication tapering resources on day one. Please be aware that we are not able to unlock modules or program content in advance of the fixed schedule. We understand that many of you come to us at different intervals of this journey, but in order to ensure that this protocol is being done safely and will produce the best results, we are not able to honor requests to expedite content release.

Timing and schedule

I want to join VMR now, but I can't begin the program right away. Can I still register?

For best results, we recommend beginning the program at a time that's easiest for you to commit to the radical lifestyle change to come. The results we discuss are possible only through 30 consecutive days of the diet. We don't suggest you begin the program if you have travel planned, a move, a special event, visitors, or won't have access to your own kitchen during the 44 days. If you are not able to commit to doing this program for 30 consecutive days once the diet begins on day 12, we recommend purchasing at another time.

Timing and schedule

How long will I have access to the program and community?

All participants have lifetime access to the course materials.

Self Healing is the most empowering feeling, it’s been a rebirthing experience. I’ve come home to myself. I love my authentic self. It’s amazing, and I truly appreciate life now.”
