Seven days is the sweet spot for lasting transformation -  enough time for your nervous system to not just absorb information, but to deeply integrate what you're learning. You'll move beyond theory and into lived practice, gaining resources and skills that will profoundly shift the way you work with yourself and others.

Your experience extends beyond our time together on campus. You'll receive access to our private online community both before and after the program, creating space to connect with fellow participants, form peer practice groups, and continue supporting one another's growth long after you return home.

A sanctuary designed for deep nervous system nourishment - where you'll restore your own regulation while developing the skills to guide others.

Immerse yourself in daily yoga and meditation classes, savor three nourishing meals featuring a generous buffet of mostly vegetarian cuisine (with vegan and gluten-free options), and discover plenty of time to rest, connect with community, or explore our stunning 250-acre Rhinebeck campus.

The serene beauty of Omega's 80-acre Lake Wohpe invites you to kayak across tranquil waters, unwind lakeside with a favorite book, or enjoy lawn games on the shore. This is more than a training - it's a complete immersion in the art of nervous system care, held within an environment intentionally crafted for transformation.

Drawing on prediction coding and neurobiology, you'll understand why the techniques you've learned actually work — and how to apply them with greater precision and confidence within one cohesive system.

The Certification Course provides detailed nervous system regulation protocols grounded in current science. You'll learn evidence-based techniques for addressing various states of dysregulation, with practical approaches for building vagal tone, working with the implicit memory system, and creating genuine neuroplastic change.

Just as importantly, you'll gain the language and frameworks to make this work accessible. These resources help you translate complex neurobiological concepts into clear, actionable guidance, bridging the gap between professional expertise and what your clients can actually understand and apply in their daily lives.

Daily self-regulation practice, small group processing, and community connection that sustains you beyond the training.Your small group provides an essential foundation for professional development.

You'll build meaningful relationships with peers while implementing practical strategies and deepening your expertise.

We've intentionally designed the Course to include dedicated time for small group work, allowing you to apply new concepts directly to your professional context, receive targeted support and feedback from colleagues, work through challenges and transform theoretical knowledge into practical skills.

These action-oriented sessions will give you the confidence to immediately implement education and resources with your students, clients, or patients.

Join a vibrant community designed specifically for coaches, clinicians, teachers and health practitioners that are ready to elevate their practice and make a bigger difference.

The community includes small group learning circles where you can learn from fellow practitioners.

You'll also benefit from interdisciplinary collaboration, connecting with professionals across health modalities to develop integrated approaches to client care.

Completing the Nervous System Certification Course gives you the prestigious "Nervous System School Trained" designation for your website, bio and CV, highlighting your dedication and commitment to excellent client care.

Additionally, you'll be invited to join our ongoing Certification Alumni Community that includes live meet ups, continued personal growth and professional development. 

This is where you'll connect with fellow practitioners, meet with your small group and begin to expand your professional network. This will happen approximately two weeks prior to the course starting via a Zoom call. Details will be provided to you via email.

Develop comprehensive personalised regulation strategies tailored to address the unique needs, backgrounds, and goals of each of your clients.

You'll incorporate evidence-based frameworks and protocols to ensure effective intervention across emotional, cognitive, and physiological regulation domains. 

The Certification Course harnesses the power of relational networks while drawing on the neurobiology of attachment to support co-regulation—the dynamic process where you help modulate your client's physiological and emotional states.

This foundation enables you to create resilient support systems, so your presence can help another return to balance during distress. 

The Certification Course integrates clinical biofeedback technology with targeted intervention for primary and also the four blended stress responses: Freeze, Stillness, Play, and Fawn. 

This evidence-based approach allows practitioners to identify physiological markers of each response state, monitor real-time transitions between states, and implement precise interventions tailored to each client's unique nervous system patterns.

Understanding regulatory mechanisms involves examining the dynamic pathways of top-down and bottom-up regulation that coordinate physiological and psychological balance.

Neuroplasticity represents the brain's remarkable capacity for structural and functional adaptation throughout life.

You'll learn both bottom-up versus top-down methods for modulating stress arousal through different neural pathways. The relationship between the thinking brain and survival brain explores the neuroscientific interplay between higher cognitive functions and primitive survival mechanisms.

Understanding our internal bodily sensations through a trauma-informed lens requires examining the intricate relationship between our nervous systems, sensory processing, and embodied awareness.

The central and peripheral nervous systems serve as primary conduits for interpreting internal sensations, but trauma can significantly disrupt these interpretive mechanisms.

You'll explore trauma's impact on sensory systems, how it fundamentally alters our ability to accurately perceive and respond to internal cues and most importantly how to shift this through neruoplastic change.

Developing neuroaffirming body awareness practices offers a pathway to reconnect with interoceptive signals in a way that acknowledges and respects neurological differences, creating space for individuals to rebuild trust with their bodily experiences at their own pace and in ways that honour their unique nervous system needs.

You'll discover the neurobioligcial shifts from developmental trauma and the healing power of touch. If touch is outside your scope you'll learn to help your clients and students connect with their body through self-directed techniques.

You'll also |earn about the interconnection of proprioception, fascia, and the nervous system, as well as the emotional dimensions of touch.

Language shapes our neurobiological reality in profound ways that extend far beyond simple communication. In this Course, we'll explore how the words we use—both in dialogue with others and in our internal monologue—directly influence neural pathways and physiological responses.

These stories we tell ourselves can either trigger or soothe our nervous system's threat response. When threatening narratives dominate, they can push your clients into states of anxiety, freeze, or complete shutdown.

We'll examine how recognising and restructuring these narratives can interrupt these cycles and create pathways toward regulation.

This component addresses how institutional policies and practices can either support or hinder nervous system regulation, offering guidelines for developing systems that recognise and respond appropriately to trauma's neurological impacts.

Explore real-world scenarios demonstrating how environmental factors impact neurological functioning. You'll use practical examples and develop strategies for applying theoretical knowledge to diverse situations, enhancing your ability to recognise external influences on nervous system regulation.

Learn essential principles for implementing trauma-sensitive approaches within your own practice, classroom and organisational structures. 

Approximately two weeks after the event, you will participate in a small group call. This will be coordinated and communicated to you prior to the end of the week.

Approximately four weeks of ongoing connection with your community, your peer-reviewed assessment takes place. All the details will be communicated to you prior to the end of the week.
