Understanding the Nervous System with Liz Introno

Serene, calming retreat environment for reconnecting with the nervous system during the Quiet Strength retreat in Camden.

We hear the word “wellbeing” everywhere. But often, what we’re really being sold is performance. Fix-it tools. “Quick resets.”And while those can help in the short term, they rarely touch the deeper layers—the part of us that holds tension, overwhelm, or fear in the body itself.


That’s where the nervous system comes in.


The Missing Link in Modern Wellness


Most people don’t know how their nervous system works, let alone how to care for it.But your nervous system is your body's regulation system. It’s what helps you shift from stress to calm, from activation to rest.


And when you understand it—just a little—you can begin to change everything from your energy levels to your sleep, your emotions, and even your relationships.


Introducing the Vasomotoric Cycle


At our Quiet Strength retreat in London this September, psychotherapist and biodynamic massage practitioner Liz Introno will be leading an interactive talk called How Wellbeing Really Works.She’ll introduce the emotional vasomotoric cycle—a natural flow the body moves through when it’s processing emotion or stress.


Understanding it means you’ll start to:


  • Notice where you are in your own stress response

  • Learn what helps you shift back into balance

  • Recognise when you need support—and how to respond gently


Real Wellbeing Is Not About Fixing


You don’t need to be calm all the time. Or flexible. Or perfect.You just need tools that help you listen to your body. Tools that help you come back to yourself—without force, without pressure.

And that’s exactly what Liz’s session offers.


It’s not therapy. It’s not a lecture. It’s a guided remembering of how your body already knows how to heal, if it’s given the right conditions.
