From surviving to thriving Introduction In my Psychosynthesis Master’s thesis, I explored psychological safety in our current VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity) and BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible) […]

Neuroceptive Learning’s Approach
Safety, Connection and Regulation What is Psychological Safety in our current world Our world is often described as VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) or BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible). Prolonged stress and trauma are increasingly common, leading to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and its chronic version, Complex PTSD (C-PTSD), both of which have now been […]
The Polyvagal Unified Nervous System
A triune system of regulation, safety and connection We live in a zeitgeist described as VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous), with prolonged stress and trauma as common denominators resulting in chronic health and relational conditions becoming more prevalent. This led to the inclusion of both Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and its chronic version, Complex PTSD […]
30 years of the Polyvagal Theory
A Transformation to Safety, Regulation & Connection As we near the 30-year milestone of Stephen Porges’s introduction of his groundbreaking Polyvagal Theory (PVT) at a conference in Atlanta in October 1994, it is fitting to reflect on the profound impact this theory has had on our understanding of the nervous system and its implications for […]
The Polyvagal Perspective
A paradigm shift to thriving in our VUCA World and Beyond In August 2024, Stephen Porges released “The Polyvagal Perspective,” highlighting the more expansive and broader applications and implications of the Polyvagal Theory (PVT). This release marks almost 30 years since Porges first presented his enhanced understanding of the Polyvagal unified nervous system at a […]
Building Blocks of Neuroception
Psychological Safety in Our VUCA World Our world is often described as VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) or BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, Incomprehensible). Prolonged stress and trauma are increasingly common, leading to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and its chronic version, Complex PTSD (C-PTSD), both of which have now been recognised and included in the World […]
