Psych Circuits is a 60-minute trauma-informed, neuroscience-based program that incorporates body-mind techniques to help individuals regulate emotions, rewire thought patterns, and restore nervous system balance. This innovative approach is offered both as part of individual Exercise Physiology and Behavioural Health / Coaching Social Work sessions (if deemed suitable for personal goals), and through weekly group sessions.

What Are Psych Circuits?

Psych Circuits combine physical movement with psychosomatic techniques to optimise emotional, mental, and physiological health. It is grounded in the principles of neuroplasticity – our brain’s ability to rewire itself through repeated experience, thought, and emotion.

We integrate the P.A.C.E model (Playfulness, Acceptance, Curiosity, Empathy) with our unique H.O.P principles (Hope, Optimism,Potentiality), emphasising strength-based practice and future-focused reprogramming.

This program is ideal for those who have experienced adversity or are seeking to complement their therapeutic care with embodied, mind-focused strategies.

What’s Included?

Each session blends physical activity with proven psychosomatic tools:

• Aromatherapy & Breathwork (bio-hack to regulate the nervous system)
• Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping)
• Positive Self-Talk & Statements (retraining default thought patterns)
• Whiteboard Mindset Exercises
• Circuit Training
• Virtual Reality (VR) Experiences
• Progressive Muscle Relaxation
• Meditation & Visualisation

Why It Works

Psych Circuits are designed to activate four key drivers of neural change:

1. Positive Emotion

Using breathwork, aroma, and affirmations, we intentionally evoke elevated emotional states to strengthen empowering neural pathways.

2. Repetition

Structured circuits and verbal cues create consistent opportunities to reinforce new habits and break old patterns. 

3. Visualisation

Guided exercises engage the brain’s natural ability to simulate and reinforce desired outcomes.

4. Meditation & Regulation

Mindfulness techniques activate the parasympathetic nervous system, breaking habitual stress responses and increasing access to higher-order thinking.

The Science Behind It

Neuroplasticity tells us: “neurons that fire together, wire together”. Every thought, emotion, and action strengthens specific pathways in your brain. Over time, repeated focus on stress, fear, or disempowerment reinforces those patterns. Psych Circuits flips that script – giving you tools to consistently reinforce hope, resilience, and wellbeing.

Much like walking tracks, the more a mental “path” is travelled, the more dominant it becomes. Through repetition, emotion, and intention, you can weaken old, unhelpful habits and build new, healthier ones.

Who It’s For

Psych Circuits are suitable for:

• People wanting to strengthen habits, motivation, focus, or mind-body awareness
• Individuals managing anxiety, depression, trauma, or chronic stress
• Those seeking nervous system regulation as well as emotional regulation

Whether the goal is to build emotional resilience, shift unhelpful mental habits, or reconnect with the body, Psych Circuits offers a safe, empowering, and science-backed path forward.
