Our Founder was recently interviewed by award-winning film-maker Nic Askew,
about how we can transform our experience of relatedness to activate the root drivers of wellbeing.
Dialogue begins at 6 minutes and 30 seconds.
SELF-GUIDED SUBSCRIPTION (MONTHLY)
Self-Guided access to the world's most sophisticated neuro-transformational wellness platform (offered on a sliding scale)
FOR WHO: You want to experience the learning platform on your own terms and your own time, and you are self-motivated enough to enjoy the exploration. Probably the most sophisticated neuro-transformational wellness platform ever created. The platform functions as a scaffold for intuition, and non-cognitive ways of knowing. It will organize itself around you like a hand-tailored garment. If you are looking for quick fixes, snippets, sound bytes, affirmations, or cookie-cutter meditations, etc., this is not for you. If you are sincerely interested in deep evolutionary transformation, there is unlikely a more sophisticated technologically-mediated wellness tool on earth. Our research consistently shows that in 50 hours of engagement, it can increase your connection assets, which are the foundation of enduring wellbeing, by 40%. Utilized by mental health and integrative medical clinics around the world. Requested by the UN, NATO, Stanford University School of Medicine, and featured in Psychology Today.$150.00EXPERTLY FACILITATED COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE SUBSCRIPTION (MONTHLY)
Communities of Practice to Heal with Others
FOR WHO: You are as much interested in building community with like-hearted folks as you are interested in working on individual healing or growth, and you want to experience the platform in the context of a group. For those who wish to be part of a group as they work on neuro-transformational healing, communities of practices are groups of 8-15 individuals who meet every two weeks for 8 sessions with a trained facilitator from our faculty. Our focus here is typically as much on sociological, ecological, and civilizational levels of healing disconnection as on the individual physiological layers.$400.00PROFESSIONALLY GUIDED INDIVIDUAL SESSIONS SUBSCRIPTION (MONTHLY)
Guided facilitation on the world's most sophisticated neuro-transformational wellness platform
FOR WHO: You have either more complex transformational yearnings, health conditions, or symptoms, and want to work individually with experienced professional guides. For those seeking personalized guidance on utilizing the deep learning platform for neuro-transformational outcomes, our guided subscriptions are offered through our ancestral neurotechnology clinic, BEYOND. BEYOND was created to unite our extra-ordinary trans-disciplinary network of neurophysiologically-informed practitioners to support transformation. We work neurogenically to help patients and clients transform: to heal complex stress-related dis-ease & grow through neurogenic transformational work.$1,000.00Welcome to the Restorative Practices Alliance. We are a global trans-disciplinary community and movement pioneering the ancestral future of wellbeing.
"This work feels like a foundational piece of wellness and overall health that I feel has long been missing from the medical conversation. I love how it is based in the science of how we function- it is very practical, very direct. I’ve witnessed its effectiveness with my patients. These are places that I don’t think traditional medicine or mental health has succeeded in reaching, and I find this work extremely inspiring and hopeful in its implications for healing."

Our Books
BOOK
PRE-ORDER: The Neurobiology of Connection
Natureza Gabriel
Most of the health outcomes in your life will be determined by a part of your nervous system that most people know almost nothing about. Those who do know that it exists understand it almost not at all. There is an ancestral pathway to enduring wellbeing that is surprisingly autonomic in nature. It goes something like this: Safety is the doorway to connection, connection is the doorway to interoception, interoception is the doorway to intuition, intuition is the doorway to relatedness, and relatedness is the doorway to enduring wellbeing. Join pioneering connection phenomenologist Natureza Gabriel for a deep, rigorous, and elemental exploration of the neurobiology of connection, and what is required to activate enduring wellbeing.$59.00BOOK / ANALOG APP: Hardcover, 7.25 x 9.25 inches, 416 pages, 150 full color illustrations

There's been huge movement.' There are a lot of people out there trying to make a change and they don't know how to do it. I think this platform would be so beautiful for them. The way it follows people's interests gives people a different kind of agency in their own healing."

I learned a tremendous amount about the essential qualities of being connected to myself and the participants, and the difficulties of doing so with ease.
