70% of disability claims are related to mental health (Canada Life)

Burnout and disengagement are at record highs, particularly among mid-career professionals and leaders

Nervous System Literacy Training
Nervous system literacy is the ability to recognize, understand, and respond to the body’s physiological stress signals.
Through this training, leaders learn how their nervous system impacts decision-making, emotional regulation, communication, and leadership presence—often unconsciously.
In other words, it's leadership from the inside out.
By becoming literate in nervous system function, leaders can:
-
Spot when they’re in a reactive vs. regulated state
-
Lead with more emotional intelligence and resilience
-
Model healthier ways of working and managing stress for their teams
-
Shift from “powering through” to responding with awareness and intention
Nervous System Capacity Training
While literacy is about understanding, capacity is about building the nervous system’s ability to handle stress and recover efficiently.
This training includes breathwork, somatic practices, and real-time tools that help reset the stress response, prevent overwhelm, and expand what an individual can handle without burnout.
It’s a form of internal strength training—quiet, effective, and long-lasting.
Why does this matter?
Because chronic stress is a silent productivity killer.
This retreat for me, in terms of my goals, was extraordinary. I achieved my goals, I made new friends. I think that in an environment like this, it was very conducive to learning who you are.
Extraordinary
My number one goal was really to let go and tune out my daily life. I just wanted to get back to me…I’ve been re-energized and reminded of who I am and my strengths.
Re-Energized
Thank you so much for sharing your stories and time stretching this weekend. I have been telling my friends and colleagues about our ‘connections’ this past weekend. I am one hundred percent in for
repeating the weekend next year. I discovered I actually like pilates!
Sharing
it was an absolutely amazing weekend. I have a much calmer attitude and will keep this feeling. My girlfriend said I look better than I have in a long time. You were all wonderful and I am in for next year.
So enjoyed sharing our secrets.
