Book a Free Discovery CallA special invitation to those ready to heal their nervous system and find lasting peace and ease in 2026.
Thank you for considering this programme.
This intimate 6-week journey is designed for anyone experiencing a dysregulated nervous system, chronic stress, restlessness, or the relentless mental chatter that makes it difficult to feel truly at home in your body and in your life.
I experienced intense fear and anxiety throughout my teens and twenties. There were moments of despair, frustration, and loneliness - but I never gave up hope. Looking back, those experiences became the catalyst for my own journey of healing, awakening, and embodiment. Everything I've learned through that journey has been woven into this programme.
At the heart of this experience is a carefully curated self-study course that guides you step by step through nervous system healing and regulation. Each week you'll unlock new video teachings, practical somatic exercises, guided meditations, and simple daily practices designed to help you integrate the work into your everyday life.
Rather than relying on a single session each week, you'll have the opportunity to engage with the material in your own time, revisit lessons whenever you need them, and build a consistent practice that creates lasting change. The real transformation happens through the small, daily moments of reconnecting with your body, calming your nervous system, and creating new patterns of safety and ease.
Alongside the course, we'll meet for a private 30-minute Zoom session each week. These sessions are your opportunity to ask questions, receive personalised guidance, work through any challenges you're experiencing, and ensure the practices are supporting your unique journey. Think of them as dedicated coaching and integration sessions that bring the course to life.
Together we'll explore body-based practices including meditation, somatic therapy, breathwork, and nervous system regulation. We'll also look beyond managing anxiety and begin discovering what it means to live from presence rather than from the thinking mind, so that peace becomes more than an occasional experience; it becomes your natural way of being.
This programme is for you if you're ready to move beyond simply understanding your anxiety and begin embodying a different way of living. A life with more calm, more clarity, more freedom, and a deep sense of coming home to yourself.
This is a powerful journey for those who are genuinely committed to healing through gentle, consistent practice supported by expert guidance every step of the way.
If you feel called, I'd love to meet you. Begin with a free discovery call, and together we'll explore whether this programme feels like the right next step for your journey.
Life is far too precious to spend it caught in survival mode.
With love,
Chris

''How would you treat a child that is afraid? Would you push them away, tell them they are not welcome, give them your phone to play on, give them a snack to shut them up?
OR would you pick them up, tell them how much you love them, and hold them for as long as it takes for them to feel safe again?
This is how we heal our nervous system.''

''Chris is an incredible man accompanied by equally great teachers. His course has massively improved my life where mainstream methods either had no effect or exacerbated my sense of isolation and hopelessness.
Even if you feel fine or think you feel fine, watch one of his lessons. I guarantee if you listen, something will ring true.
I'm eternally grateful for the kindness he has shown me, and lucky to have come across his course. '

Calum, past participant
Before joining I experienced intense suffering, constantly under attack from negative thoughts. I experienced anxiety in a number of ways including social anxiety, health anxiety, panic attacks and massive adrenaline rushes which rendered me unable to carry out even the simplest day-to-day tasks, let alone seek employment.
Had it not been for the generosity of my partner, I may have ended up on the streets or worse.
Anxiety was impacting my life in every way. I left my job with no alternative because I could not deal with the sense of dread it created. I had become riddled with suicidal thoughts and was living under constant attack from my mind — both as a victim of my circumstances blaming the world, and as my harshest critic blaming myself.
I often didn’t get out of bed, or if I did, barely made it past the couch. I became afraid of doing even simple things like cooking or going about normal daily life. The scariest thing was that I saw no way out.
I came across Chris’s work at a time when I had almost given up hope. Something about what he shared resonated deeply — it felt completely different to anything I had tried before.
For the first time in what felt like years, I had hope.
Since doing this work, everything has begun to change.
I no longer have the same relationship with my thoughts. I’m learning how to be with my emotions rather than fight them, and I feel a sense of peace that I didn’t think was possible.
For the first time in my life, I feel like I’m on the right path.
Although I don’t have everything figured out, I don’t carry the same fear about life anymore. I feel more grounded, more present, and more able to just be.
I’m incredibly grateful to Chris and this work for setting me on this path.
It has genuinely changed my life.
Lee, past participant
Wow. What a journey... This course and what it has taught me in the last three months has been one of the most important and rewarding things to ever happen to me. I've learnt how to be alone with my own thoughts, how to process and accept my emotions and how to live day to day without constant fear and anxiety. It's been a life changer. I was beginning to give up hope but somehow stumbled upon Chris’s work last summer and after attending two of the free sessions, I knew he was onto something.
If you are thinking about taking this course, then I couldn't recommend it enough. This time last year I couldn't even sit in a room with my own mind because it was just too much. I was constantly stressed and anxious at work, even on holiday, for absolutely no reason. My mind was out of control. But since taking this course my whole world is different.
I've never been so relaxed, so happy... and for no reason. Chris is so friendly and welcoming yet professional at the same time and I honestly can't thank him enough. If anyone is thinking about attending one of his courses, honestly, you can't afford not to. It may just change your life.
Robert, past participant
Alright Chris mate I just wanted to say thank you so much for the time and effort you have given to us throughout the course from all the videos you shared to all the sharing circles and live sessions đź‘Ś
I didn’t know what to expect from the course and was a little unsure at first but I counted myself lucky that I joined and tried my best to make every session and most of all be present and listen.
Every week I learned something new about myself.
But what really helped me, guided me, made me love myself again, showed me I wasn’t alone, that there is light at the end of the tunnel no matter how long the tunnel may be was you, Chris.
If you weren’t making me cry with the heartfelt songs you shared or the stories about your life, you were making me laugh with the way you brought humour into it all.
The passion, love and care you showed throughout the course really came through and I will forever be grateful.
You aren’t just an inspirational mentor to me but someone I have a lot of respect and appreciation for.
So thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Henry, past participant
Hi Chris,
Things are going really well since the course. I feel a lot more at ease with the world now.
I’m able to see my worries more clearly without getting caught up in them. I don’t identify with them in the same way anymore — they just feel like parts of me that come and go.
I’m also able to express myself more in situations that would have worried me before, and I feel much more comfortable in myself generally.
I’m just full of love again and excited for what’s ahead.
Starting this process with you has been one of the most impactful things I’ve ever done, and I just wanted to say thank you again.
Sean, past participant
I highly recommend the anxiety programme run by Chris West. Chris is an excellent teacher. There are not many people who would open up their hearts and talk about their own experiences in such a genuine way. Too many people keep everything to themselves and Chris helps you open up without feeling judged. The meditation techniques and practices are a great step to overcoming anxiety. Please consider joining — you will not regret it.
Rob, past participant
I just wanted to say thanks to Chris, the past weeks have helped me grow so much, I’ve learned so many different things, and feel I’ve become a stronger person for it.
Each week we had so much content from videos to live sessions and practices, we couldn’t have asked for much more, and the level of passion in every session really showed.
Most importantly it’s showed me that I’m not alone in the struggle with anxiety and there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Jack, past participant
When I found Chris’s work through an Instagram post, I thought to myself this sounds like something that could help me, why not give it a try? What an understatement. After the introductory sessions, I was very keen to continue.
The topics covered, the experiences shared, and the techniques were all extremely helpful. I found the practices we learned super helpful and I'm still using them going forward.
One of the main things that helped me was learning that suffering alone is not mandatory. With the support and knowledge shared, I found multiple ways to move towards a more positive and grounded way of living.
Thanks again for everything Chris.
Rob F, past participant
I took part in Chris’s programme and would highly recommend this type of work to those struggling with anxiety.
The techniques I learned are invaluable and have really made a positive difference to the way I feel.
Chris was supportive throughout and his teaching style was brilliant. I particularly enjoyed the bioenergetics element and found it brings a whole new level of relaxation.
Anne, Liverpool – past participant
I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Chris, although initially anxious after taking the first step to sign up I was so glad I did! Chris is so calm and relaxed, he's a fantastic teacher. I will continue to take everything I learned and grow as a person finding peace, calmness and love for myself and others. I highly recommend it. Be brave it’s so worth it. Thank you Chris.
Laura, past participant
This work has had a huge impact on my life. I have hugely transformed from the person I was 12 months ago. The bioenergetics practices have helped me become more grounded and given me the tools to move towards my feelings rather than away, creating a real sense of emotional freedom. I am forever grateful.
Poppy, past participant
The practices have had a profound impact on me both physically and emotionally, and have helped me release long-standing tension. Highly recommend.
Joe, past participant
This was an amazing and eye opening experience into how much I've neglected my body and how good it can feel to reconnect with it. I really got a lot out of it.
