Find peace in your own body

We will help you get your body and mind in sync, by integrating research-led practices into your daily life, harnessing the powerful connection between body and mind to improve your wellbeing.

Body Mind Connect is a research-informed programme and membership developed by Dr. Sula Windgassen. Created in response to the frustrating experience of patients being dismissed, BMC offers a more complete approach to healing, it bridges the gap between mental and physical health. The three core components provide a unique path to better understanding your body mind connection, allowing you to discover the power of nurturing the body mind connection.

Body

The Body section aims to empower you in your own body, by helping you understand how biology and psychology work with each other, and how you can influence this yourself.

Mind

The Mind section uses neuroscience techniques to help you develop a better relationship with yourself and work with your brain and biochemistry.

Connect

The Connect section is built based on the healing psychobiology of social connection & support. You gain a community of like-minded people committed to healing and growing.

Who is Body Mind Connect for?

Body Mind Connect is for anyone struggling with their physical or mental health, who feels like a piece of the puzzle is missing in their healing journey. We are here to show you how your biology and psychology work together.

Chronic pain

You may have unexplained chronic pain or pain that is part of a diagnosis like endometriosis, IBS of inflammatory bowel disease.

Life changes & loss of path

You may feel like you are blindly navigating a stage of life, and feeling the pressure of doing so alone.

Unexplained symptoms

You may experience fatigue, physical sensitivity, nausea, cramping, overactive bladder, bowel issues & pelvic discomfort.

Experiencing loneliness

You may have a couple of the other categories, but the thing you struggle with most is the isolation.

Burnout

You may be feeling the effect of chronic stress building up and depleting you physically and mentally, and to recover you need to align your body and brain.

Self discovery

You may not have a big problem, but you just want to know yourself better and explore what being you means more.

What is included in the membership?

A membership with Body Mind Connect enables you to focus on how your body and mind are working together, demystifying bodily processes and helping you to understand the biology underpinning your experiences. Our membership combines science-backed tools with a real community to create a safe space that helps you to reduce stress and maintain motivation on your journey.

Led by Dr. Windgassen on Wednesday evenings with additional sessions on Thursday mornings with our community manager. They aim to supplement and support your journey.

You can use our programme either by being led step-by-step using My Journey, or dive straight into topics you want to explore across the three categories.

Our community helps you break the isolation that comes with chronic conditions or poor mental health. It is a safe place where you can finally feel seen and heard.

You will have access to an extensive collection of guided audios, videos, workbooks, worksheets, and journal prompts, which are all designed to help you practice and progress.

How it works is based on how you want it to work, the programme can be self-guided or can be taken at your own pace or guided through My Journey.

But here is an outline of how to get started:

1. You sign-up, and instantly gain access to the whole hub of Body Mind Connect, this includes the programme, all resources and community.

2. You can then decide whether want to follow 'my journey' which gives you a step-by-step plan for each week personalised to your experience, or whether you want to dive in to an area you are most interested in

3. Whatever you choose, you will be guided to create goals on the platform, and this will help you select topics that will support you with meeting the goals. BMC is like a gym membership; a lot of the practices require consistent practice, reflection and refining.

4. You can then sign-up to our Slack community, which you can access on all devices, and if you feel comfortable introducing yourself, or if not, join the conversation when you feel ready.

5. Once you are a member, you can join our Wednesday workshops which are an opportunity to supplement what you are already working on. Each month a different topic is selected to deep dive on, with live practices, reflections and an opportunity to connect. You can choose whether to integrate what you are learning from the workshops to your own work or you can earmark what you have learnt in the sessions to come back to. You can attend as many or little workshops as you like

6. You are welcome to use the Q&A function and the slack community to get your questions answered and get feedback when you feel you want the extra support on your journey

Our supportive community convenes on a private Slack channel where members find the connection many have been missing on their health journey. Managed by our dedicated community manager, alongside the input of our active members, this space offers 24/7 support through various topic-specific channels and optional buddy groups. Members consistently tell us that the community is where they finally feel seen, heard, and understood - a place where they feel comfortable to explore some of their feelings about how they are feeling. We continually evolve our community spaces based on member feedback, ensuring the environment remains responsive to what you need most on your healing journey.

There are weekly workshops held by Dr. Windgassen, and additional fortnightly sessions, including a Q&A with our membership manager and trainee health psychologist. We are always looking for how we can evolve this to fit our members needs - and welcome input on how this looks in the future.

Unlike many wellness programs that promise quick fixes or miracle cures, Body Mind Connect takes an ethical, research-informed approach that honours the reality of healing: it requires consistency, not hacks.

BMC was created by Dr. Sula Windgassen PhD - a qualified Health Psychologist, CBT Therapist, and EMDR Therapist with two doctorates in Psychological Medicine and one in Health Psychology. She has heavily focussed on the intersection of physical and mental health, and uses this research to help others.

Our self-paced program uniquely addresses the crucial interplay between psychology and biology. We combine ‘mind down’ practices derived from psychotherapy with ‘body up’ practices from somatic disciplines, all grounded in a thorough understanding of psychobiology.

While we won't promise to eradicate your symptoms or completely transform your life overnight, nor should we, we're committed to empowering you responsibly, and truthfully. Our focus is to help you understand the body mind connection, build a practical toolbox of evidence-based strategies, provide a safe space when you feel isolated, and welcome you into a supportive community that understands your journey.

it's not all on you

A community waiting

Navigating health issues, life transitions, and burnout is not easy. The weight of responsibility can be crushing when it feels like it's all on you, spending your time researching late into the night, piecing together solutions alone. We want to help you step out of your isolated silo, and welcome you to a safe space with people who truly understand, and help you work towards improved mental and physical health, with the support of a community.
