Helping you reconnect your body and mind — for lasting resilience, strength, and wellbeing.

About BodyMindBrain
Hi, I’m Nicola Turner MSc., founder of BodyMindBrain. I founded this approach to help people thrive despite stress.
After 35 years of study and clinical practice in psychology, it became obvious to me that changed thinking and psychological insight wasn’t enough to guarantee resilience and thriving. The cumulative stresses of life can change the functioning of our body and brain as well as our mind. In short, stress changes the way we think, feel, breathe, move and regulate the stress response.
I realised that stress causes us to adapt in body and mind, and to get back to thriving, we need approaches that re-train us back towards a better baseline:
An approach that supports and trains the whole human system — body, brain, and nervous system — together.
That’s why I now work across four key areas:
-
Neuroscience – re-training the brain and nervous system, to better regulate the stress response
-
Breath Science – retraining breathing and oxygenation
-
Movement – rebuilding strength, posture, and functional movement unhindered by tension
-
Psychology – helping mindset and emotions arise out of a body that is regulated in balance
This whole-system approach creates real, lasting change — from the inside out.
Why I do this work
I believe that with the right knowledge and approaches, we can train ourselves to thrive in a world where stress and complications will endure. Time and time again in my career, I have seen how people try to control the outside world in order to feel more comfortable on the inside. I believe that the most powerful approach is one that supports our body and mind to stay steady and flexible, as life continues to deliver challenges and uncertainties.
