My guess is that no-one ever taught you how your nervous system really works... let alone that with training you can learn to consciously control it.
We live in a broken culture that traps us in co-dependant addictive cycles, meaning we are addicted consumers of various external substances, pills or products promising to change our state.
Why are we trapped? Because no-one taught us the art & science of 'interoception', meaning your capacity to experience our inner-landscape & consciously self-regulate.
Worse still, prolonged periods of high-stress causes 'allostatic overload' to accumulate. This increases the fragility of our nervous system leading to anxiety, exhaustion & ultimately burnout.
Walking this path of truly mastering your nervous system means feeling in total control of your internal fuel system: either pressing your foot on the gas pedal or recovering from intense output, whatever the moment requires.
No prior experience necessary. All protocols are completely safe and backed by quality peer-reviewed research.
What is Nervous System Mastery?
I’ve found the most motivated people who are willing to commit to this training fall into one of three categories:
Nervous System Mastery is the most powerful thing I've ever done for personal growth. I had previously explored breathwork, meditation, therapy, and other approaches, but always felt like something was missing...

Just wow. This course changed my life. Experiencing, first-hand, how the world shifts depending on the state of my nervous system was incredible. Why wasn't I taught this in school?!
Brad W MorrisInvestor Thinker & Community SpecialistIt's the best online program I've ever taken (and I've taken quite a few, from transformational coaching programs, to business courses, to parts work)!

I’ve been meditating for the last 15 years. However, nothing had as much impact on my well-being as the last few weeks with Nervous System Mastery.
The instructor
My journey into nervous system mastery began when my fiancée suffered an anxiety attack that led to her taking her own life.
In the years since, I’ve invested tens of thousands of dollars and half a decade exploring my nervous system — extended meditation retreats, nature based vision quests, neurofeedback clinics, psychedelic ceremonies, hundreds of breathwork journeys, and ten days in a dark room.

Alongside this inner journey, I spent thousands of hours researching, training, and mentoring high-performers — from the CEO of a rocket ship company to startup founders recovering from burnout to busy parents attempting to stay afloat amidst the chaos of raising a family.
This training is my attempt to distill the essence of what I’ve learned and curate the most effective evidence-based practices that I’ve encountered. I truly hope that it will support you on your own inner journey of reclaiming agency and aliveness in your professional and personal life.

This course is life-changing and the materials are so much richer than I could have imagined. It took me five years of therapy to realize the importance of managing my nervous system. I plan to make Nervous System Mastery a requirement for my portfolio founders.
Julie FredricksonChaos AgentThis course has been the most challenging, the most intense and the most rewarding course of my life.
Inga von GölerI finally have the language to describe what's happening inside me, to recognize the different states that I'm in. And I've learned that it's okay to feel any type of emotion, there are no bad ones; that crying is something to embrace and something healthy, as emotions flowing through me.
Julia SaxenaDirector of Marketing at Forte LabsAs someone who made a living teaching people how to run these kind of experiences, I can honestly say this is one of the best I've been in - so intentional, thoughtful and practical.
Andrew BarryHelping companies become learning machinesI've reduced my caffeine intake and I feel more connected to my emotional experience. Nervous System Mastery distills leading theories of nervous system regulation formatted to be as practical as possible.
Tessa CarolynBodyworker + Somatic CoachA sense of peace and calm I have not experienced in my life.
Pat O'ToolePersonal Development and Well-being Coach and FacilitatorThat we can turn fear into peace, dullness into clarity, or anger into understanding, at will - in minutes - is a life-defining moment. And this course will show you how.
Erick GodseyDepth Psychologist & Behaviour Change SpecialistPutting this together changed my life and the lives of those around me.
Juan MonteroNew Dad, Learner, EntrepreneurThis course should be a requirement if you are a human with a nervous system. It will peak your curiosity, give you lots to play with, and transform your experience with your body in the world. My life is different now that I feel that I am willing to let my nervous system move through its full range without fear, knowing that I have tools to bring it into balance. Unexpected benefits might include shifts in perspective, improved emotional intelligence, and a wider window of tolerance to stress. Life in general feels freer and easier to navigate with the knowledge, protocols, and better interoception.
Laura KarpinskiFounder of Align.Move.BreatheNSM has transformed my relationship with my nervous system and taught me how to regulate my emotions as needed, leading to an increased depth of personal wellbeing and calm.
Robert BoogaardImpact Catalyst (& aspiring Somanaut)I feel more grounded and at ease. My wife says that I am more stable & present. More humour & fun. More daring. Better at expressing my needs. Better listening skills without getting triggered.
Ben WardLeadership & Organisational Coach/ Dad of 3Thank you so much for providing such a life-changing course that has allowed me to better understand myself and my family.
Peter GowingExploring the Brave New World of my Inner-SelfThis training helped me be more present, ground myself, and regulate my energy through the ups & downs of running a rocket ship startup... Best of all, I have lifetime access to the course materials which lets me visit (and revisit) lessons to better incorporate them into my daily life.
Ben KellieCEO, The Launch Co.Nervous System Mastery gave me bite-size & actionable techniques for regulating my nervous system which I have consistently put into practice at least one 10-min-a-day since day one of the course. It's like seeing the world in HD. Nervous System Mastery has essentially become the underpinning foundation for how I am redesigning my life around what I need — as shown by how I feel.

Kristóf Rácz🦿Mechatronics Engineer, 🎓 PhD student, 🧍Full time Human Body OperatorFrom human thinker to human being - life changing insights that in five weeks increased my aliveness, gave me tools to listen to my sensations and energy inside with protocols to be able to shift it if desired.
Camilla Lee RunnquistI just wish I'd had access to this course 25 years ago.
Keith McGuinnessWords aren't able to match the gravity of what you and this course has done for me. Thank you for giving me an opportunity to discover who I am, to feel safe in myself, to befriend myself, to regulate myself and those around me. The way I felt seen and accepted taught me how to see and accept myself in ways that I didn't know where possible.
Jessica SharmanDuring the 5 weeks I have noticed an increased ability to remain grounded and to be emotionally available for the key relationships in my life. I've also noticed how much more attuned I have become to my internal emotional landscape. A powerful knock-on effect of this is that I have been able to notice any developing fragility in me as a result of emotional debt, and practice different protocols (top-down, bottom-up, and co-regulation) to support me to return to a more regulated and resourceful place.
Scott DrummondLeadership coach and facilitatorInstead of reacting automatically, I can pause and understand what I'm feeling before responding.
Aditi ChughSoftly finding my way back to myself, with more patience, more love, and quieter reactions.I remember the first time I consciously guided my nervous system away from a flight-or-fight response. It was in an argument with someone I loved. Because of this, I was able to choose a creative response. It changed both of our lives.
FAQ
Everything you need to know about course logistics, content and cost. Can’t find the answer you’re looking for? Get in touch with Jonny here.
Students who sign up for the Essential package get access to join the next upcoming cohort (these run twice per year — every Spring and Fall), and lifetime access to the pre-recorded content and live replay recordings. Participating in future cohorts will cost $600 thereafter.
Students who join the Unlimited package receive lifetime access to future live cohorts (twice per year) plus lifetime access to the community and future updates. We’ve had many students participate in 4+ cohorts and mention that their experience deepens each time.
Each week contains a blend of theory + practice. We aim to share the minimum amount of pre-recorded theory necessary to give sufficient context for the protocols.
The weekly live sessions are designed to be almost entirely experiential (no-one enjoys passively being talked at for an hour), and we’ve found this creates a more effective learning environment.
This training is, as far as we are aware, one of a kind.
In terms of content, the vast majority of personal development courses emphasize top-down or mind-based approaches such as mindfulness, visualizations, and cognitive reframes. These can be valuable but we’ve found that body-based protocols tend to be far more effective for both real-time regulation and addressing root causes (we call this paying off the emotional debt).
In terms of approach, the curriculum is designed to emphasize self-experimentation and consistent practice. We’ve intentionally made core materials available through pre-recorded audio, so they can be listened to whilst on a walk rather than sitting behind a screen.
Finally, we’ve seen many students come for the materials but stay for the community — over 1,500 alumni from around the world, many hosting IRL meetups.
The weekly live calls with Jonny take place on Fridays at 10am PST. Attendance is optional. Roughly ~20% of past students are based in an Australian or Asian timezone and shared that they were still able to gain everything they needed from watching the recordings in their own time.
Questions for the Q&A are submitted asynchronously and all recordings are shared, so if you’re unable to attend live, it won’t have any detrimental impact on your learning experience.
If you’re taking part in the live cohort — we recommend setting aside a minimum of 2.5 hours per week for the 5-week duration. This includes:
If you have more time available, we encourage you to join a weekly 60-min small-group Relational Dojo plus the optional 90-min weekly guest masterclass.
Yes. Sometimes you need to see something before you can fully decide if it’s the right thing for you right now.
If you decide Nervous System Mastery didn’t deliver on its promise for any reason within the first week, just let us know and we’ll refund your full payment, no questions asked.
Absolutely. As one study found, panic attacks don’t come out of the blue — there are many cues upstream of a panic attack that can be noticed with sufficient interoceptive practice, allowing them to be nipped in the bud before they occur.
In addition, training emotional fluidity will support with addressing underlying repressed emotions from which panic attacks arise — it’s possible to go beyond managing symptoms to addressing the root cause.
Absolutely — a decent number of our students are able to get partial or full reimbursement towards the cost of this training. We’ve prepared a template here that you’re welcome to use.
“Getting the cost of Nervous System Mastery reimbursed by my employer was super simple thanks to the approval email template & auto-generated invoices.” — Stiven Skyrah, interdisciplinary designer
These weekly sessions, hosted by our alumni, are designed to be a dojo arena for practicing the three fundamental skills of interoceptive awareness, self-regulation, and emotional fluidity.
Inspired by relational practices like circling and t-group, these sessions are designed to accelerate the progress and integration of nervous system mastery skills into everyday life.
Absolutely — this course has been designed after working 1:1 with coaching clients who have been recovering from varying degrees of burnout.
In the meantime, you might also find this Emotional Resilience Wiki to be a helpful resource.
The curriculum and protocols draw from a wide range of peer-reviewed research studies and literature reviews, combined with feedback loops from working with hundreds of clients and students. Read the studies.
Yes — approximately 10–15% of our students identify as neurodivergent. Studies have shown that improving interoceptive capacity and emotional regulation are highly effective for mitigating ADHD symptoms. We also have breakout discussion threads and expert guest speakers for diving deeper.
We’ve started to use the Nervous System Quotient (NSQ) self-assessment to capture as much data as possible (in addition to pre- and post-course surveys), to quantitatively track progress made by our students.
Whilst not essential, this is advised — heart rate variability (HRV) is an excellent proxy measure for the resilience of your nervous system. It’s also helpful to gauge resting heart rate, respiratory rate and sleep quality.
To enable more precise tracking, we recommend investing in one before the course — Whoop Band, Oura Ring, HeartMath, and Apple Watch are all excellent.
Final word
The type of attention that we pay in the world is a profound act. Imagine listening to your nervous system, attending to your senses as if they were playing an exquisite piece of music.
The receptiveness changes the quality of the nervous system. This curriculum is based on a radical idea — that your experience of reality depends upon the quality of your attention. And the quality of your attention depends upon the state of your nervous system, which depends on your ability to get out of your head and into your body.
I hope you will consider joining me in this fascinating deep dive into our primal conditioning & explore who you might become on the other side.
