“Each brain and each nervous system carries its own truth, its own language, its own raw expression of life. The Felt Sense Polyvagal Model lets us express the unspoken, feel the unseen, and guide the body back to safety.”
Hannah Westphal, Neuroscientist & Felt Sense Polyvagal Model Practitioner.
The nervous system is designed to protect us. It is central to our ability to heal, recover, adapt, and change.
It continuously adapts to our experiences, environment, and the demands placed upon us.In a world of increasing stress, uncertainty, stimulation, and pressure, many people are experiencing nervous systems that are constantly required to adapt.Most people do not have a dysfunctional nervous system. They have a nervous system responding normally to an increasingly demanding environment.
When the nervous system is primarily focused on protection, the body has fewer resources available for restoration, repair, and growth. This can influence how effectively someone engages with therapeutic interventions, lifestyle changes, and functional medicine approaches.Supporting nervous system regulation helps create the internal conditions needed for recovery and allows the body and mind to respond more effectively to healing interventions.
Drawing on contemporary neuroscience and informed by concepts from the Felt Sense Polyvagal Model and the Polyvagal Theory, this Programmeprogramme focuses on understanding your unique nervous system and applying evidence-informed strategies to build resilience and support recovery.
It helps you understand your nervous system patterns and develop practical tools to support greater flexibility and resilience. Through education, body-based awareness, regulation practices, and accountability, you will build the capacity to create sustainable changes in your health and wellbeing, the ability to experience intensity, navigate challenges, and return to balance.
The Nervous System Regulation Programme is a 12-week neuroscience-based programme designed to support nervous system regulation, resilience, and lasting change.
The structured programme is available nationwide via Zoom and delivered by Neuroscientist and trauma and addiction specialist Hannah Westphal (BSc., FSPM). It is a structured programme designed to support nervous system regulation, resilience, and lasting change by combining neuroscience education, virtual sessions, practical regulation tools, and guided independent exploration.
You’ll have access to our secure portal Practice Better, where you can contact Hannah and receive ongoing support between sessions ensuring you feel guided and confident throughout.

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged.
