Get To Know and Reshape Your Nervous System

A nine hour program to help you work towards becoming familiar with your nervous system, allowing you to build resilience and flexibility in your ability to recover from challenges and make the most of life’s opportunities.

Choose between weekly or fortnightly sessions of either 60 or 90 minutes. Sessions available online worldwide.

Do you feel like you’re stuck in a loop of feeling frantically busy and then crash, due to exhaustion?

Are you feeling burnt out and want renewed vigour to enjoy living life?

Do you want to feel more confident and empowered to be in the driver’s seat, rather than life circumstances driving you?

I learnt things about myself I never knew before and having this knowledge has made negotiating the world and my life much easier.
— Amanda, Vic
I came to Michelle at a point of crisis where I was starting to worry that I would need a change of career to manage awful panic attacks that had seemingly come out of nowhere. I had no idea what to do and I knew I couldn’t just ‘think’ my way out of them. What I learned with Michelle was that these attacks didn’t come out of nowhere - far from it - and she shared so many tips and techniques around how I can resource myself to avoid them altogether.

I no longer have panic attacks, and I also have a much better understanding of how to get the best out of myself. I’m so grateful to Michelle - and relieved I don’t need to find a new career!!

Working with Michelle has helped me to regain control of my mind and body when I am feeling anxious or fearful.

This program was just what I needed after a long period of stress and the ongoing uncertainty of Covid and lockdowns. It helped me to explore my own preferences and gave me the tools to intervene when I was feeling anxious or overwhelmed by the chaos. I hadn’t realised the impact of the nervous system on how we think and feel every minute of every day. I now know my ‘glimmers’ – the things that help me to stay energised and in flow. It was a very valuable learning and feeling experience. And I’m applying the learnings every day. Thank you to Michelle for your wisdom and guidance.
— Angela, Vic

We come into the world wired to connect, With our first breath, we embark on a lifelong quest to feel safe in our bodies, in our environments, in our relationships with others

You will be guided to become familiar with how your nervous system responds to various situations by:

  • creating your own PERSONAL AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM MAP that allows you to bring awareness to how you think, feel, behave and show up in relationships in various nervous system states

  • learning how to RESHAPE YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM BY BRINGING AWARENESS to and LISTENING to your body’s felt sense

Using the framework of Polyvagal Theory and Inner Relationship Focusing, a somatic process of safely paying inward attention to your body, you will:

  • Learn how to EMBODY CURIOSITY so you can gently move towards a more CONNECTED AND BALANCED STATE OF BEING

  • Be SAFELY GUIDED to undertake somatic exercises using the Inner Relationship Focusing model that will help you APPROACH YOUR FEELINGS WITH CARE in various states and bring RESILIENCE AND FLEXIBILITY to your nervous system RESPONSE

  • Learn TOOLS that you can EASILY APPLY on a daily basis to help you REGULATE YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM by working with the VAGUS NERVE.

  • Learn how to bring AWARENESS to your TRIGGERS so that you become LESS REACTIVE

  • Be guided to DIS-IDENTIFY FROM STRONG EMOTIONS

  • Experience how it feels to INVITE IN AND GROW POSITIVE FEELINGS and how this can GROW YOUR CAPACITY FOR SAFETY

Neuroscience research shows us that the only way we can change the way we feel is by becoming aware of our inner experience and learning to befriend what is going on inside ourselves
