We are redefining the way people
understand and experience transformation
by teaching them how to work with their own nervous system to
create sustainable, embodied change.
Brainbased exists at the intersection of healing and high performance
because we believe nervous system regulation is the foundation for both recovery and expansion.
We’re here for the high performers who are burning out, the parents trying to stay regulated for their kids, the entrepreneurs holding it all together, and the trauma survivors looking for a path that finally includes the body.
We know that nervous system education and training must be trauma-informed, science-based, and grounded in lived experience—not vague, overwhelming or out of reach.
Through daily neurosomatic practices, we help people rewire limiting patterns of anxiety, disconnection, pain, overdoing, and emotional repression—and build new pathways for resilience, self-trust and expansion.
This isn’t about fixing what’s broken.
It’s about unlocking the capacity that’s always been there—so your nervous system can support your healing, your leadership, and the life you’re here to build.
What is Neurosomatic Training?
Neurosomatic Training is a science-backed method for creating lasting change by working directly with the nervous system and harnessing the brain’s innate ability to adapt—known as neuroplasticity.
At the core of this approach is applied neurology, which uses targeted inputs—such as vision, balance, touch, movement, and interoception (internal sensation)—to influence how your brain and nervous system respond to stress, emotion, and daily life. By activating key sensory and motor systems, applied neurology reduces threat signals, improves regulation, and builds capacity in both the brain and body.
Neurosomatic Training combines applied neurology with trauma-informed somatic practices, offering a powerful, practical path for healing and expansion.
Rather than relying on willpower or mindset alone, you’ll use daily, body-based tools to rewire the patterns that keep you stuck in anxiety, pain, disconnection, overdoing or emotional repression—and replace them with new pathways that support calm, resilience, embodiment and presence.
Whether you're healing from trauma, navigating chronic stress, or growing into your next level of leadership, this work helps you become the expert of your own nervous system—so you can live with more clarity, connection, energy and emotional freedom.

Margy Feldhuhn
ceo & Co-Owner, BrainBased.com
As CEO and Co-owner of BrainBased.com, Margy is on a mission to help people expand their capacity, grow their income, and dramatically increase their impact—without the burnout.
While helping to build and lead Interview Connections, her multi-7-figure podcast booking agency, Margy confronted a truth many successful entrepreneurs face: external accomplishments weren’t delivering true fulfillment. Despite her outward success, beneath the surface she battled anxiety, stress, and relationship challenges that no amount of achievement could solve. Then she discovered the missing piece: neurosomatic training.
Through this groundbreaking approach to rewiring the nervous system, Margy experienced a profound shift—not just in her achievement, but in her capacity to actually enjoy her life. By working with her nervous system rather than against it, she unlocked a level of success and personal satisfaction previously unimaginable. The transformation was so profound that it made possible what had once seemed unattainable, including becoming a mother in 2024.
Today, Margy Co-leads BrainBased.com with uncompromising dedication to helping others reclaim joy, connection, and massive impact through nervous system alignment. This work isn't about quick fixes or pushing through barriers; it's about fundamentally rewiring ourselves to support extraordinary achievement and life satisfaction.
Her mission extends beyond individual healing to revolutionizing how people approach their lives: by building capacity from within, creating wealth that feels good, and generating world-changing impact while feeling more alive than ever before. Margy lives in Rhode Island with her wife, baby, and 4 extremely quirky (and mostly special needs) rescue pets.
