Hi! I’m Heidi Fischbach. I specialize in helping people like you reset their nervous system—because when your body and mind are on the same team, everything changes.
For nearly two decades, I’ve helped people feel at home in their bodies, first, as a massage therapist and Focusing professional, and now, as a nervous system coach with a science-backed, body-based program to help you rewire old fear-based programming.
Meet Heidi
What if you could feel, down to your very bones, a sense of ease and belonging—right here on earth and in your own body?
✨ Feel at home in your body and comfortable being 100% YOU.
✨ Replace hyper-vigilance with curiosity and playfulness.
✨ Connect deeply with people and things that truly matter to you.
Sound good?
Imagine this...
The “hyper-alert” version of you is a survival response, not a life sentence. With the right framework, you can transform the way you experience yourself, others, and the world.
Here’s what I know for sure: You are not broken.
Let’s reset your nervous system and create the safety, ease, and connection you deserve.
Apply for your RESET!
"I’ve already tried so much and nothing works."
You’ve done the journaling. The affirmations. The deep breathing. And yet, the anxiety, dread, or self-doubt keeps coming back. That’s because true nervous system transformation isn’t about "just calming down." It’s about creating safety, trust, and connection in your body at a foundational level—where real, lasting change begins.
"It feels too hard."
You’ve tried meditation apps, therapy, or yoga, but the moment life throws something hard your way, it’s back to feeling stuck and anxious. You’re not failing—it’s just that your body needs something more tailored and actionable to rewire those old stress patterns.
"I don’t have time for this."
You’ve got a full life—work, relationships, responsibilities—and you’re just trying to keep up. The idea of adding one more thing to your plate feels impossible. But here’s the truth: learning to regulate your nervous system doesn’t have to take hours a day. In fact, small, doable practices can create big shifts in how you feel and show up in your life.
Reclaiming your nervous system after a lifetime of stress, fear, and hyper-vigilance can feel overwhelming:
In order to truly reclaim your nervous system and create a life of ease and connection, you need these 3 essentials I teach in...
Nervous System RESET
True transformation comes when nervous system safety becomes second nature. This pillar is about anchoring what you’ve learned so deeply into your body that it shows up in your relationships, work, and everyday life. Embodiment means living with confidence, ease, and joy, no matter what life throws your way.
“How do I live this freedom every day?”
Embodiment
Essential 3:
Once you see what’s happening, the next step is learning to guide your nervous system into safety and ease. This pillar focuses on tools and practices for bringing your system out of fight, flight, or freeze and into connection. Regulation creates the conditions for curiosity, connection, and a sense of belonging in your own skin.
“How do I calm my body and mind?”
Regulation
Essential 2:
This is the foundation of transformation. To reclaim your nervous system, you first need to recognize the patterns that are running the show—like chronic tension, overthinking, or people-pleasing. Awareness work shines a light on how these patterns originated and why they persist. It’s the key to stepping out of autopilot and into choice.
“What’s happening inside me?”

“Heidi’s approach has been different from any traditional therapy I’ve tried before. Today, I can confidently say that I am truly my own friend. I also respond differently to the same situations that used to make me anxious or defensive, or drive me toward compulsive soothing like food or shopping. The best part is, these changes aren’t just temporary—I’ve been noticing more ease and friendly confidence building steadily over the months. I’m no longer afraid, and when I do lose my center, I now know how to find my way back through my own body. This has been a night-and-day shift from the influence of the fear-based and strict religious upbringing that shaped much of my adulthood.”
- Elizabeth, Educator
“So many days since I started working with you I walk around with a smile on my face thinking 'I'm just a new person!'... You and this program have given me the chance for a much better life. I hope anyone who reads this will give themselves the chance to feel better too.”
- E.P., Actor
“I am experiencing a 180 degree shift in outlook and mood from when we started working together. Now I can respond instead of react.”
- Carli, Program Manager
“A year ago, I was experiencing deep depression and fatigue. Every single interaction in my relationship would send me into red alert. Now I can set boundaries. I no longer have to cave in. My energy and mood have also increased tremendously! I am able to rest when I need to without beating myself up. And I can energize as needed, too. Everything has gotten better.”
- Susanne, Artist
what's included:
How long before I can expect to see changes in my nervous system?
Results vary for everyone based on personal history and level of participation. Some people notice small shifts in awareness or sensation within the first few sessions/weeks, while for others, changes unfold more gradually and incrementally over a few months. The length of the program is designed for steady progress that isn't rushed, pacing that allows for integration and traction to occur, all of which are vital to fundamental change.
What is the Safe & Sound Protocol (SSP)?
The Safe & Sound Protocol (SSP) is a non-invasive, science-backed listening program that resets and restores your nervous system's capacity and function through technologically-filtered music. Originally developed by Dr. Stephen Porges, SSP gently and directly affects your vagus nerve so that it can effectively respond rather than automatically going into survival states. SSP has been found to reduce anxiety, improve focus, and build resilience, and has been written up in scientific journals, including the Harvard Review of Psychiatry.
I didn’t grow up in a religious or cult-y setting, but I can relate to many of the signs you list. Would this program work for me?
Absolutely! This program is for anyone who feels they’re stuck in patterns of fear, anxiety, or tension, regardless of their background. The focus is on creating a safe, body-based experience of connection, so whether or not you have a religious history, the Reset Program is designed to support anyone who wants to experience greater calm, ease, and connection.
I will shout this from the rooftops: Resetting your nervous system is the most transformative gift you can give yourself!
So many people feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, disconnection, and shame—and I get it! It’s not your fault.
where we’re learning body-based ways to heal and thrive in ways our past selves couldn’t imagine.
We’re living in an extraordinary time...
The truth is...
you’ll finally see why, despite your best efforts, it’s been so hard to truly feel calm and connected before.
For nearly two decades, I’ve helped people feel at home in their bodies, first, as a massage therapist and Focusing professional, and now, as a nervous system coach with a science-backed, body-based program to help you rewire old fear-based programming.
