From NFL All-Pro to Mindfulness Visionary
From NFL All-Pro to Mindfulness Visionary
WELLNESS VISIONARY | THOUGHT LEADER | MINDFULNESS PIONEER
Keith Mitchell is a visionary thought leader and mindfulness pioneer who has transformed human potential through the alchemy of adversity. Once an NFL All-Pro linebacker, Keith’s career was shattered by a paralyzing spinal injury. Yet, where most saw an end, he discovered a new beginning. While others saw defeat, he found possibility, using conscious breathing as neural reprogramming and meditation as mental training to regain complete mobility. His journey from paralysis to mastery gave birth to a revolutionary insight: trauma isn’t your fault, but healing is your greatest responsibility.
Today, Keith is a sought-after speaker, entrepreneur, and celebrity yogi, guiding elite performers — from Fortune 500 CEOs to professional athletes — to transform the ordinary into extraordinary, pain into purpose, and limitations into liberation. Through his podcast, LIFE IS FOR PLAY, global luxury retreats, and his groundbreaking book, “The Mindfulness Mastery Playbook: 8 Strategies for Winning the Game of Life,” Keith bridges ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience to help others solve problems effectively and expand the realm of possibility.
“I used anger to fuel my NFL career. It got me there. But it was love that rebuilt me when I fell.
And it’s love that motivates me now to help others rise.”
