Salim shared his personal perspective on how we can relate to and improve our heart rate variability. He described HRV as our nervous system's language, a tangible biomarker that we can listen to and determine the health of our autonomic nervous system.

Andy and Dom guided us through the art and science of designing spaces that help our nervous systems feel safe, grounded, and alive. Drawing from architecture, neuroscience, and lived experience, they showed how light, air, color, and sound shape our internal states.

Rick Hanson invited us into the practice of growing the good within — deliberately internalizing moments of safety, connection, and accomplishment so they become traits rather than passing states. Through simple frameworks, personal stories, and a guided meditation.

Mollie Eastman shared how her experience with insomnia transformed her life and inspired her mission to help others reclaim deep, restorative rest. We explored foundations for great sleep — how light, temperature, food, and thought timing shape our sleep quality.

Tristan de Montebello explored the intersection between the nervous system and speaking. Through this engaging presentation, he discussed the common fears and habits that get in the way of our speaking comfort and ability to freely express ourselves.

Sofia-Jeanne introduced why relational practice is important, and how our early relationships shape our nervous systems. The session was highly experiential, guiding participants through the head, heart, gut, and pelvis axis.

Kelly shared her nervous system regulation lens on creativity. She defined creativity as 'something we bring forth from within us', as opposed to the typical notion of creativity as the artefact of genius. A fresh perspective on creative blocks as dysregulation.

Alex shared his perspective on modern addictions, including his recovery journey from living with addiction to experiencing more calm and joy. Through the lens of reciprocal narrowing and reciprocal opening.

Stephen shared his journey into exploring Jhana states and how they differ from conventional meditation experiences. Jonny and Stephen discussed the concept of a 'panic attack for joy' — when the nervous system meets bliss.

A hugely helpful session with a massive amount of resources for folks with ADHD. Reframing ADHD as a challenge with emotional regulation, especially relevant in the context of nervous system mastery.

Mind-blown moments throughout this session. Nick's definition of anxiety is incredibly thoughtful and shines a light on the ways we label ourselves. A reframe that changes how you relate to anxious feelings.

A rich resource for exploring the ways we inhibit ourselves from expressing and moving toward free and flowing self-expression. Super relevant to the work of emotional fluidity.

Sofia-Jeanne guided an exploration of how to remain present with ourselves and with others whilst in interaction. Expert facilitation of relational practices and the art of Circling.

Dr. Michael Yang shared his expertise on psychedelic-assisted therapies, integrating perspectives from Chinese Medicine, pain science, metabolism, and depression research.

Sofia-Jeanne introduced the practice of Circling — an experiential, relational practice built on presence, vulnerability, and authentic connection with others.

Brett shared insights from 15 years of extreme sports including skydiving, paragliding, wingsuiting, and BASE jumping — and how those experiences taught him about self-regulation under extreme stress.

Dr. Tataryn introduced the Bio-Emotive Framework and the concept of the Psychograph — a map of your emotional landscape that reveals patterns in how you process and relate to emotions.
