esilience is the ability to rise and fall with the currents of life in such a way that we remain flexible and adaptive in our responses.  Good regulation means that our nervous systems can also rise and fall in response to environmental cues.  Our regulatory capacity and resilience are inextricably linked. If we want to experience true resilience, we need to start with the body level up.  And that means learning how to speak the language of the nervous system so that we can begin to partner directly with it to modulate through our stress responses in a more internally-resourced way.

Nervous System RESET teaches people how to recognize their stress responses by attuning to the physical signs, indicators and sensations that signal rising activation levels and/or settling in the nervous system.  With this body (somatic) awareness, individuals can begin to track their internal sense of safety and to apply evidence-informed tools and practices which support the nervous system down-regulating its baseline over time.

At the heart of these practices is the nervous system recovery response, a gentle, vibratory neuromuscular reflex in the body which is a natural mechanism for stress recovery.  By learning how to access this restorative recovery reflex and to work with it in manageable and calibrated doses, you can gradually discharge accumulated levels of stress (be it everyday life stress, chronic and ongoing stress, or traumatic stress) and guide your nervous system back to a healthier, more resilient baseline.

Nervous System RESET is offered through private online sessions with Jessica.  For more information on the various programs offered including professional training for practitioners looking to add the Nervous System RESET approach to their work with clients, please visit the Programs/Trainings page.  For a listing of the Nervous System RESET Online Self-Paced courses, please click here.  And for a listing of our currently scheduled offerings, please click here.
