Join the List

 

The Advanced Practitioner Pathway is where you step into your next identity: a global leader in the nervous system space.

Here, you'll go deeper into the leading science of neuromodulation, the technology and innovation shaping where this field is headed, and the Nervous System-Sensitive Sequencing that sets your work apart.

You'll sharpen your own regulation, because the practitioner who leads this space has to embody it first.

You build real neuroeducation skills, the kind that makes complex science land simply, so your community actually understands what you're teaching them. And you do it inside a room of peers working at your level, not behind a screen.

Then we help you take it further.

You'll learn how to be seen and found: how to market your work, build content that reaches people, and put a strategy behind growing your own community, not just holding what you have.

This is where clinical depth meets visibility, and where your practice stops depending on you being the only one in the room.

 

 What you're stepping into.

This pathway runs across two 4-day residential retreats, at Kripalu in NY, plus a standalone 2-day Regulated Practice Lab in San Diego. There is no recorded version and no online component.

The Academy includes clinical depth, leadership work, and real practitioner community don't transmit through a screen. This pathway asks you to show up, in person, alongside the people doing this work at your level.

2-Day Regulated Practice Lab: San Diego, CA | April 2027

A standalone 2-day business and strategy intensive in San Diego. Pathway enrollment is the only way in. This isn't a keynote. It's direct working time with Jessica's own team: her PR consultant, business coach, strategist, and content lead, on positioning, scaling your practice, and pitching to companies and institutes. It is not sold separately, ever. It exists only inside the Pathway.

5-Day Training Immersion: Kripalu, NY | July 2027

covers neuromodulation: photobiomodulation and vagal stimulation protocols, taught as clinical curriculum, not theory.
The fifth day is an extended training on helping you be seen and promote your work. 

 

5-Day Training Immersion: Kripalu, NY | November 2027

You know stress impacts your symptoms and you want to take a proactive role in managing your health. You've been through turbulent times and have learned some resources already. You're ready for deeper insights into the responses of your nervous system, more body awareness and greater flow and ease.

Stories of Transformation

"I absolutely recommend this Vagus Nerve Program with Jessica. Not only did she share a lot of information about the vagus nerve, the theory behind it, but also she shared a lot of tools with us that we were able to implement on our own, but also in peer to peer meetings that she set up weekly for us."

Joyce - Vagus Nerve Program

"I got out of this course what I would have never gotten out of a simple consultation with a healthcare professional... I can be sure that this was the right fit and that this is exactly what I needed. It gave me all the reassurance, and validation, that I was looking for as well as all the tools to work with it."

Margot - Vagus Nerve Program

"I just finished eight weeks of the Vagus Nerve Program by Jessica Maguire. Excellent, excellent course, incredible. This is the highest quality program online that I've ever experienced and I've taken quite a few online courses."
