New wellness solution provides expert digital content and guidance across mental health, fitness, nutrition, and mindfulness in one seamless experience

MINNEAPOLIS, April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — LifeSpeak Inc., the leading provider of whole-person wellbeing solutions, today unveiled LifeSpeak Holistic Wellness, a holistic, personalized solution that provides expert support and thousands of on-demand fitness classes, nutrition guidance, and mental health support and education. The wellbeing solution enables employers, health plans, and organizations to provide expert-backed, AI-powered personalized support for every age, stage, and life experience through a single comprehensive platform. Integrating support across mental health, fitness, nutrition, mindfulness, and more, LifeSpeak Holistic Wellness simplifies wellbeing delivery while advancing health outcomes for every individual’s unique wellness journey.

Mental and physical health have a bi-directional relationship, calling for a solution that addresses both aspects of health. For example, it’s widely acknowledged that chronic stress disrupts bodily systems, leading to issues like weakened immunity, cardiovascular problems, digestive disorders, and reproductive challenges. Meanwhile, people with depression have a 40% higher risk of developing cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Fortunately, physical activity can mitigate the impact of this connection. Studies show exercise can significantly reduce symptoms of anxiety — particularly with higher-intensity activity — with some individuals seeing improvements of 20–30%, and even brief daily activity — as little as 15 minutes — can lower a person’s risk of developing depression by 10–20%.

“LifeSpeak is built on the fundamental concept that effective wellbeing addresses the interconnectedness of mental and physical health,” said Michael Held, founder and CEO of LifeSpeak Inc. “LifeSpeak Holistic Wellness provides a complete approach to wellness for individuals and organizations. We’ve taken decades of expertise in wellbeing, coupled with advanced AI capabilities, and created a comprehensive solution that drives engagement, enhances preventive health, and eliminates the complexity of managing multiple point solutions—all while delivering meaningful outcomes for organizations and their people.”

LifeSpeak Holistic Wellness features:

• Expert-led classes and education. Members can access thousands of expert-led classes, videos, and digital resources spanning eight wellbeing categories, including fitness, nutrition, mental health, mindfulness, physical health, and personal growth. Resources are available in multiple formats – including videos, webinars, and articles – delivered by more than 450 internationally recognized wellbeing experts, doctors, psychotherapists, fitness experts, nutritionists, dieticians, and substance use specialists.
• AI-powered personalization. Members can follow AI-generated wellness recommendations based on their needs and interests, or leverage LifeSpeak’s smart search capabilities to explore a vast library of classes and resources in multiple languages and formats, empowering them to create their own personalized wellbeing journey.
• Group challenges. Organizations can implement engaging, customized group challenges where members earn points through shared wellness activities, which inspires participation, drives sustainable engagement, and fosters connection across teams and diverse populations.
