WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY:

“The 21 Day Course has added so much to my healing! From someone who has early childhood trauma and then experienced major anxiety, panic attacks and OCD starting from age 12, it is amazing to me how this course improved my daily life!”

— Gail, 21-Day Tune-Up Student

Why the nervous system?

Why the nervous system?

As one of the biggest, most wide-reaching systems in our body, the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is our body’s mechanism for self-regulation.

When it’s healthy, stress can move through and out more easily, but when it’s burdened with old, stored survival stress (aka: trauma), it becomes dysregulated, and because the ANS touches so much of the body and mind, you can experience a host of issues.

Get Started

Symptoms of an unhealthy nervous system

❌ Digestive and immune system troubles — like IBS or autoimmune.

❌ Chronic pains and illnesses.

❌ Habits and patterns that drive you (and the people in your life) crazy.

❌ Emotional symptoms, like depression, anxiety and chronic stress…

❌ Fatigue and ‘brain fog’.

❌ Struggles with attention & focus.

❌ Difficulty forming lasting, healthy relationships.

❌ Mental roadblocks, fears, and resistance that paralyze you from doing what you know deep down you’re meant to do.

Healing at the nervous system level is therefore the “master key” to lasting healing — beyond symptom management. 

Without this foundational regulation, efforts like somatic exercises, breathwork, tapping, or talk therapy often become temporary bandaids — or worse, they can even be re-traumatizing. 

The good news?

Thanks to neuroplasticity, you have the innate ability to heal stored trauma and start building a regulated nervous system today.

PERKS OF A HEALTHY NERVOUS SYSTEM

Emotional Regulation

Recognize and accept your good, bad, and ugly emotions without judgment or toxic shame. Learn to express difficult emotions in a healthy way and experience improved relationships.

Real-Time Stress Relief

Have a set of practical and fast-acting tools at hand that help you relieve stress in the moment, then process and integrate those bouts of anxiety so they don’t keep coming back to bite you.

Restful Sleep

Go to sleep easily, sleep deeply and peacefully through the night, and wake up in the morning feeling fully rested and refreshed.

Strengthened Immunity

Bounce back faster from those pesky common colds and flus. Feel your body’s repair system act on a dime when it needs to, allowing you to recover more easily from injuries and illness.

More Energy

A tuned up nervous system is like teflon for unhealthy stress. When you don’t waste all your energy just trying to hold it together, you finally have enough in the tank to do what you enjoy!

Better Gut Health

Experience less food sensitivity, better nutrient absorption and improved digestion, not to mention pooping with ease without that (quite common) funky cycle of constipation/diarrhea.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY:

“Absolutely brilliant course. I’ve been working in the holistic healing and wellbeing world for 40 years both as a practitioner and as a professional. I have learned so much from Irene — relevant to my own lifelong healing of childhood trauma and of living with a PTSD diagnosis.

Irene’s mix and match method, drawing on the wisdom and teaching of a diverse range of mentors and disciplines, backed up by rigorous scientific research, really worked for me. Through the 21 days I felt pieces of the jigsaw (of my life), hitherto lost or misplaced, slot into perfect alignment. This work is so important. I feel/know that I’m one of many prioritising this work in the service of global healing. Thank you Irene.”

OTHER SIGNS YOU MIGHT NEED THIS

When stressed, your default is shutting down, leaving you emotionally numb and unable to fully express joy, anger, or sadness. Sometimes it feels like you’re missing the “express yourself” gene. Even after hitting pillows or screaming in the shower, the gremlins always seem to return.

You’ve stumped your doctor, acupuncturist and therapist and the most they do is prescribe “less stress” and “take it easy” — or, maybe “try this specialist” or “this pill.”

No matter what you do, you feel tethered to a massive rock and right now, hiding under it seems like the best possible solution.

You say stuff you know you shouldn’t be saying, but before you know it, hurtful words are flying out of your mouth, attacking those you love the most, like your children or partner. You’ve got mindfulness ADHD.

Whenever you head to your meditation class, you lack focus, and you can’t calm your mind to save your life.

Harmful habits and addictions hijack you. Even if they’re the socially acceptable kind, like over-exercising, work or food obsession, they can bring heartache, shame, and self-hatred. Yet, you can’t help but rely on these crutches to feel a sense of control and safety.

You’re constantly trying out holistic practitioner, after woo-woo professional after transformational coach to get to the bottom of why you’re still a certified hot mess (because even though you’ve made some progress, something still ain’t right.)

IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE SO TOUGH

to get on top of these pesky things…

Chances are no one has ever taught you how your nervous system really works, nor given you the tools to work with it in an effective way. For things to really shift, you need a combo of both. And I’ve got you covered because this IS my specialty.

Introducing the 21-Day Nervous System Tune-Up

A self-paced online curriculum that blends educational content with practical exercises—all designed to spark up your nervous system’s self-healing powers.

  • Start building true, lasting nervous system regulation with 9 powerful lessons that blend cutting-edge neuroscience with sensory awareness and functional movement practices.
  • Shift into ‘rest, relax, and repair’ mode with easy-to-follow audio exercises that help to unlock your body’s own wisdom and in-built desire to be WELL.
  • Change how you see your past, present, and future with vital nervous system science that’s digestible enough for beginners yet comprehensive enough for practitioners.
  • Enlighten, educate, and prime your body, mind, and nervous system for the deeper teachings & biological embodiment practices with daily educational videos.
  • Get your questions answered on a weekly basis with support from our team of trained and experienced nervous system practitioners (via our ‘21 Day’ program platform).

This nervous system work is hard to do alone. It takes support, guidance, and encouragement. With this program, my team and I have put all the steps in place so it doesn’t have to be lonely, confusing, or overwhelming to get started.

We invite you to experience for yourself the power of true regulation, and begin laying the foundations for lasting health and healing—at the root.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY:

This [21-Day] process has changed the way I relate to myself and to my friends and family. ‘I’m grateful’ doesn’t begin to describe the experience of having my own growing agency and self esteem. I had been to see counsellors, healers and all sorts of helpers for over 30 years and I hadn’t gotten to where I am now after practicing this for 3 years.

I’ve had PTSD with several personality disorders that have haunted me all my adult life that went undiagnosed and unseen. This process has enabled me to do some deep shadow work with healing and resolution rather than re-traumatizing me or covering it deeper.

I wish every child could learn these skills in kindergarten… but it’s never too late as I can attest. All the ‘spiritual’ stuff l used to do can’t hold a candle to where I am now. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Real People

Real Stories

Michaela

When I think about where I am now and what has been going on with me even the past few weeks and months compared to most of my life… it’s like my wildest dreams are taking place.

For years, I was trying to do work blindfolded. But as soon as I came to nervous system work, the blindfold came up and it finally all made sense and I could see. It was just a nectar. I consumed it all in the most nourishing and enjoyable way without major struggles.

When I was going through the ‘21 Day’ course, I literally felt from day to day like a veil was being lifted in terms of my perceptions. I had so many realizations, so many epiphanies.
It is possible to turn things around, but you will have to work for it. You can’t buy it. Someone else can not do it for you. But you can do it. I strongly believe everybody has the capacity [to heal].

Andrew

After more than thirty years of seeing counsellors, therapists, qualifying as an NLP practitioner and life coach and spending more than $25,000 in personal development, since I started the 21 Day Nervous System Tune Up, I’m really unlocking myself and freeing myself from my past. I’m already noticing that my stuck states shift much quicker; am more present and confident with people and am noticing that my body is becoming more alive. I’ve started to rediscover my creativity and childlike nature which is a real blessing.

I’m on my third run through of the program (Once you’ve invested you can repeat it as much as you like) and am still delighted by the quality and quantity of the support from Irene’s team; as well as from the other participants. The investment is an absolute bargain. If you’re serious about resolving your issue and this looks like it’s a fit, do it!

Rebecca

As a mind-body life coach I suspected my nervous system was somewhat unregulated. Not always, but more often than I’d like, I would get ‘triggered’ for seemingly no reason and would experience jitters and low-level anxiety that wouldn’t switch off. Particularly, when turning within to notice my emotions. (Later, I’d learn that ‘orienting’ could settle this down.)

I heaped on tons of self-judgment and created stressful stories about my abilities to help others heal their chronic pain. Thankfully, a Canadian friend and coach forwarded me one of Irene’s videos. To say it resonated would be a huge understatement – I HAD TO KNOW MORE so I immediately signed up for her 21-Day Tune Up program and felt HOPE surging through my veins.

While it’s true Irene’s training has been incredibly beneficial in helping me understand mammalian physiology, the nervous system, and how both relate to chronic pain and illness, it’s been a much bigger awakening than that.

Irene’s a fantastic teacher, mentor and presenter. She doesn’t ‘dumb down’ anything; rather, gives easy to understand and digest bite-sized lessons. I got anatomy and neuroscience education, mind/body/emotions connections review, movement therapy introduction, how to honour impulses, hear inner wisdom, helpful videos and relevant resources, a like-minded FB community, answers to my personal questions – and well, a newfound intimacy and healthier relationship with myself.

The information she provided fits ‘hand in glove’ with all the mind-body tools I’ve amassed and used over a ten-year span. For me, the mind-body puzzle is complete. These days I’m feeling happier, peaceful, authentic, and more confident as a coach. It’s a joy to witness my clients benefitting from what I learned too.

So, if you have a nervous system, a mind, a body and emotions (and we all do!)– this course is for you. It’s a game changer and I highly recommend it

A NOTE OF ENCOURAGEMENT

You have the capacity to heal yourself; your system is not broken. But to really heal means dealing with stress at the deeper level of the nervous system.

When we bring more nervous system regulation on board and start to work at this level, the benefits are GAME CHANGING.

With a more regulated nervous system, we not only feel less stress, we may also see change (often profound!) in almost every area of our life; physical health improves, well-being grows, and ageing becomes more graceful.

We have more energy to live our lives, the little stuff AND the big stuff, and we gain more energy, focus, presence, and peace of mind.

I realize this can sound too good to be true, but it’s actually how we humans were designed to work.

Can you picture what your life might look like with less stress and more regulation in your nervous system?

I want to help you make this vision a reality, and I created The 21 Day Nervous System Tune-Up to teach you how. This self-study course is a powerful, and absolutely doable, place to start.

The ‘Tune-Up’ is changing people’s lives and waking them up to what it means to become truly healthy.

FAQs

Is this tune-up the only thing I need to regulate my nervous system and heal past traumas?2023-07-26T21:20:39+00:00

This course is a great starting point for your nervous system healing, and it lays the groundwork to then take it to the next level with the SmartBody SmartMind program. As such, the cost of this 21 Day course can then go towards the cost of the 12 week program should you decide to take part in that.

Note:
The 21 Day Nervous System Tune-up is an introductory course that covers basic nervous system education and neurosensory practices. The impacts from the “Tune-Up” typically result from consistently engaging with the lessons and integrating the learning and practice into everyday life. To support this learning and integration, most lessons in the course are intentionally somewhat brief (note: the majority of lessons are pulled from SmartBody SmartMind, a comprehensive nervous system-based program).

Who is this course not for?2023-06-27T22:46:10+00:00

While it is not our intention to place limitations on anyone’s personal choice to take part in the educational content and experiential nature of the 21 Day Nervous System Tune-up course, please be advised that this course may not be appropriate for individuals experiencing any of the following: diagnosed severe and long standing psychiatric disorder, suicidal ideation, suicide attempt, substance abuse, or addiction.

We have had people from all walks of life find success within the 21 Day course, and if you are uncertain on whether this course is appropriate for you, we recommend you consult with appropriate healthcare providers before beginning.

What is your refund policy?2022-10-04T03:25:44+00:00

No refunds are offered due to the digital nature of the course.

When does this course start?2022-10-04T03:24:13+00:00

The course is available to start right away, as soon as you register, and registration is always open!

Will there be new content every day for 21 days?2022-10-04T03:22:45+00:00

Nope. And this is on purpose. This is because spacing and repetition are an intentional part of the program’s design. Just as you wouldn’t go see a therapist every day for 21 days, it is also way too much for our delicate nervous system to be faced with a new lesson every day for 21 days. Rest, integration and repetition, as well as time to catch up if you are behind, are all crucial elements of nervous system healing and they are built into the program for that reason.

Will I have access to the material forever?2022-10-04T03:21:47+00:00

YES. All the video trainings and audio exercises are downloadable. I actually recommend downloading the audio exercises to your iPod or phone so you have access to them wherever you are. The materials are yours to keep. If we have to do maintenance on our site, or take down a webpage, we will notify you so you can make sure you download all the materials in due time.

Are there others I can connect with around this work while taking part?2023-07-26T21:25:28+00:00

YES. When you sign up for this course, you’ll be able to post comments and questions for fellow 21 Day’ers to read. See how others are doing, ask for help and support others in their journey. With this course, there is no direct access to Irene, and questions will be answered by trained moderators within the course site.

What are some typical experiences from people who have done this work?2022-10-04T03:20:21+00:00

This is so individual. But what tends to be the most common side effects for people when they watch and learn what is within the video trainings is a greater understanding of how their body actually works in times of stress and rest, and for many it gives them an aha moment of “so that’s why that happens!”

Here is a great piece that one past participant shared with me:
“I have always felt there was something wrong with me and could never put a finger on what “it” was until I watched the video. Now that I understand what happened I have much more compassion and acceptance for myself, and for my parents. And I feel so hopeful knowing that this “damage” can be healed through the tools we have learned in this class — orienting, learning how to accept and feel my feelings, and knowing how to expand my system’s capacity to handle/process stress. I truly believe that this has been the missing key for me — I can feel it every fiber of my being.” — Julie. Reiki Master. Madison, WI.

The after effects of the practical lessons and the audio exercises range from greater calm to instant stress relief and more energy and alertness, even a renewed sense of purpose and zest for life.

It really depends on where your starting point is.

Here’s some interesting shifts from another participant:
“After going through Irene’s program I started to crave healthier foods and actually gave up my chip addiction. I used to eat chips every night and now I will have them if I REALLY want them, but for the most part not craving them as much. I also noticed more tone in my muscles which is weird, because I am not doing anything that different in my exercise routine. The other awesome side effect is strengthening my ability to not take on other’s people’s crap.” — Lisa Cheston. Personal Stylist at Style Divine. Vancouver, BC.

How much time can i expect to put into this course?2023-07-26T21:27:39+00:00

On the days that you have an active piece of course content (there are 12 of those days in total), you can expect to spend about 20-30 minutes reading the emails and course content, watching a video or practicing an audio exercise. Of course, everyone reads at different rates, so I’m estimating here.

The final Biology of Stress Training Video is a little longer, ~40 minutes. This final video is kind of like the grand finale of the five and to cut it up into two chunks just wouldn’t work for this material. By then, my bet is that watching a 40 minutes training video will just feel like your favourite Netflix show and the time will go by very fast! Of course, you can also pause the videos and break them up into your own bite-sized viewing pieces.

On the days that you DO NOT have a fresh new piece of content, I offer up resources for you to check out so you have something to reflect on, and I also allow this time for any catch-up or repetition of the previous video trainings and audio exercises.

I’ve done other online courses before. How is this different?2023-06-27T22:48:38+00:00

Most other courses and modalities out there only cover one or a few slices of the pie. Most completely miss the nervous system altogether.

They never stop to ask, “Is this human organism feeling safe right now in its environment and body?.” So if your other courses have never talked to you about the Fight, Flight or Freeze Response — or most importantly, they’ve never taught you how to WORK with those survival mechanisms (to change them or disarm them) — then that’s probably why you’re still stuck

The 21 Day Nervous System Tune-Up is your starter course to uncovering all of this.

To be completely honest, there is no other course in the world that I’m aware of that gives you this material, with practical application & a growing community — so you can begin to heal for real.
