Nervous System Regulation for the Workplace
Supporting focus, emotional regulation, resilience and sustainable wellbeing from the inside out.
In today’s fast-paced corporate world, mental wellbeing is no longer a luxury — it’s a necessity.
Research shows that 1 in 5 Australians experience a mental health condition each year, and workplace-related stress is a leading contributor.
Today’s workplaces aren’t struggling with motivation.
They’re struggling with nervous system overload.
Chronic stress, burnout, reactivity, poor focus, decision fatigue, emotional exhaustion, and disengagement are not mindset issues. They are physiological states.
When the nervous system is stuck in survival mode, the brain regions responsible for clarity, emotional regulation, communication, memory, and strategic thinking literally go offline.
You can’t coach logic into a system that’s in threat.
You have to regulate it first.
Breathwork
The Fastest Path to a Regulated
Nervous System
Breathwork is one of the most powerful — and underutilised — tools for mental wellbeing in the workplace. It’s not just about taking deep breaths; it’s about regulating the nervous system from within.
As the only function of the autonomic nervous system we can consciously control, the breath gives us direct access to calming the body and mind.
Intentional breathing signals safety to the brain, reducing stress hormones like cortisol and activating the parasympathetic nervous system — our “rest and digest” state — which helps restore calm, clarity, and focus. In a corporate environment filled with deadlines and digital overload, breathwork offers an immediate and effective reset.
Why This Matters in the Workplace
A dysregulated nervous system looks like:
Reactivity and conflict
Decision paralysis or impulsivity
Brain fog and reduced memory
Procrastination and avoidance
Emotional volatility or shutdown
Exhaustion that rest doesn’t fix
Decreased creativity and innovation
Increased sick days and burnout
Disengagement and turnover
When nervous systems regulate:
Focus returns
Emotional intelligence increases
Communication improves
Stress recovery accelerates
Decision-making sharpens
Capacity expands
Energy stabilises
Teams become more resilient under pressure
Regulation is the foundation of sustainable performance.
Through a blend of education and guided practice, your team will learn how to:
Understand how stress affects the brain and body -
including the science behind the "survival state" (fight, flight, freeze) and how to shift into a calm, regulated nervous system.
Learn and experience practical regulation techniques
that support focus, mental clarity, and emotional stability by working directly with the nervous system through the breath, grounded in neurobiology and trauma-informed practice.
Integrate nervous system regulation into everyday life
with a simple, repeatable set of breath and regulation tools participants can use long after the session ends.
About Kate
Kate is a breathwork facilitator and nervous system regulation specialist with a background in neuroscience-informed practice, psychology, and trauma-aware facilitation. Her work sits at the intersection of science and somatics, focusing on how the autonomic nervous system shapes our capacity to think clearly, regulate emotions, recover from stress, and feel safe in our bodies.
She specialises in translating complex concepts about the brain and nervous system into practical, grounded tools that people can actually use — in everyday life and in the workplace. Her sessions combine education with direct, embodied experience, allowing participants to not just understand regulation, but feel it.
Before working in this field, Kate spent over four years delivering high-pressure, high-stakes events for global brands such as Louis Vuitton, TAG Heuer, Prada, and Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. This gave her first-hand insight into the cognitive and emotional demands of fast-paced, performance-driven environments, and how easily the nervous system can become overloaded.
Today, she facilitates workshops and group experiences that help individuals and teams come out of chronic stress and survival mode, and back into clarity, resilience, and capacity through nervous system regulation and breathwork. Her approach is trauma-aware, psychologically safe, and focused on creating real, lasting physiological shifts — not just temporary relief.
Kate is passionate about helping people build sustainable nervous system health, emotional regulation, and a deeper sense of presence and wellbeing, so they can function, lead, and live from a place of grounded clarity rather than constant survival.
