If you recognise yourself here

You know your condition better than most GPs you have seen. You've read the books, ordered the supplements, tried the protocols. You're tired of the trying. You're tired of being on your own with this. You're looking for something that takes your reality seriously.

  • You feel ruled by symptoms, flares, and the fear of the next crash
  • You have been on a research treadmill for months or years, looking for the missing piece
  • You have tried brain retraining and nervous system regulation programs, and found them overwhelming
  • Your world has been shrinking: cancelling plans, avoiding foods, saying no to things you used to love
  • You have been told to push through, think positive, or just relax, and it has not worked
  • You watch others recover and wonder why it is not working for you
  • Your body has been in survival mode for so long that you have forgotten what settled feels like
Tess H

"I have invested thousands and thousands of dollars over the last 12 years. Thousands of hours as well. The Reset has taken me to the highest level so far. I have a much bigger capacity to regulate my emotions, like huge. It felt safe to be vulnerable. I felt tangible improvements in my body and state of being after every session."

Tess H · Reset Method

"Lisa expressed empathy and encouragement that helped keep me going in this difficult process when I was feeling discouraged. In a session I will never forget, she helped me identify specific steps I needed to take to continue moving through Long COVID brain fog and fatigue. Lisa has been so helpful to me and I highly recommend her services."

The 8 Pillars of Recovery

Recovery does not come from one technique. It comes from supporting the layers that complex chronic illness actually needs to settle and shift.

Built on neuroscience, polyvagal theory, psychoneuroimmunology, and over a decade of clinical practice with chronic illness recovery.

The components inside Safe Ground

Why your body responds the way it does. The science of safety, threat, and the cell danger response.

Neuroplasticity

Practitioner-led brain rewiring. Built around safety, paced for sensitised systems.

Emotional Processing

EFT tapping, parts work, and the practice of feeling without flooding.

Trauma-Informed Foundations

How nervous system protection patterns show up in chronic illness, and how to work with them.

Lisa Gumieniuk

Lisa Gumieniuk is an Australian-based Integrative Neuro-Somatic Practitioner with a background in nervous system, somatics, and chronic and complex illness. She is also a certified Evidence-Based EFT Coach, Practitioner and Mentor, and the founder of The Reset Method.

She has worked in the wellness industry for over a decade. She holds memberships with the International Institute for Complementary Therapists (IICT) and serves on the Board of the Australian Chronic Infectious and Inflammatory Disease Society (ACIIDS).

The foundation of her work is in professional training, clinical practice supporting over 3,200 people through 1:1, group sessions, and trainings, and her own personal experience.

Lisa lived through severe chronic illness. ME/CFS. Lyme disease. EBV. Autoimmune conditions. Severe brain fog. A nervous system in full collapse. Over 120 practitioners and 88 doctor appointments did not give her the answers she needed.

What changed her recovery was not one fix. It was the slow rebuilding of a system that finally felt safe enough to settle.

When she says she understands what you are living, she means it. Literally.

This IS for you if

If you are living with chronic and complex illness and ready for a different kind of support.

You may recognise yourself if:

  • You are living with chronic fatigue, ME/CFS, post-viral conditions, long COVID, MCAS, histamine reactivity, chronic pain, fibromyalgia, dysautonomia, POTS, autoimmune presentations, or other complex multi-system conditions
  • You have done a lot of research and a lot of trying, and need somewhere to integrate it
  • You want education and support that takes your physical reality seriously
  • You are looking for community with people who actually understand what you are living
  • You want practitioner-led tools, not another DIY app
  • You are sensitive, paced, and tired of being asked to push through
  • You want a more affordable way to be supported by an experienced practitioner

"My glimmer this week has been being able to re-introduce two vitamin supplements that are very much needed, and my body is accepting them with safety. A huge win for me with MCAS and other chronic health issues."

Kylie · Reset Glimmer

This is NOT the right space for everyone

This is not for you if:

  • You are after a large group with hundreds of people. This is a small community
  • You are after a magic pill solution
  • You are working through deep, unprocessed trauma that requires individual sessions to move through safely
  • You need one-to-one, dedicated practitioner support to feel held in this work
  • You are looking for a forum to share extensive personal symptom detail or process distress in real time
  • You need diagnosis, prescription, supplement protocols, or registered psychology services
  • You want a step-by-step protocol to follow. There is no fixed sequence, no homework, no boxes to tick. This is about building safety for your own nervous system's rhythm
  • You are in active crisis or need clinical psychiatric support

Time commitment

As little as 15 minutes a day in self-practice. Your own pace. Your capacity.

A note on commitment

Why a 3-month commitment

Real recovery does not come from quick fixes or one-off sessions. The shifts that hold over time happen when you commit to consistent practice, safety, and support.

A few minutes of work on your own can feel soothing in the moment. But structured, regular practice with practitioner guidance, coaching, and community builds the deep nervous system safety that allows symptoms to ease and real change to last.

That is why the monthly plan includes a 3-month minimum commitment. It is not about locking you in. It is about giving your body the steady rhythm and layered support it needs to actually shift.

You have likely been unwell for years, and recovery takes time. Some members notice fast relief. Most need at least three months of consistent nervous system support to notice meaningful, lasting change. Those who experience fast relief often choose to stay because the work continues to deepen.

Your health deserves more than trial and error
Your nervous system shifts through rhythm and repetition
You are worth the time it takes to recover

Henry's Nervous System Recovery Story

Fatigue, head pressure & depression

"For more than 20 years I lived with constant fatigue and nearly 10 years of relentless head pressure. It affected everything: my business, my family life, even my belief that recovery was possible. I often felt weighed down by depression, stress, and negative thoughts about the future. I honestly believed I might never get better."

Within just 8 weeks of working with Lisa, everything shifted.

  • For the first time, I had tools to regulate my nervous system, release old patterns, and meet myself with compassion instead of criticism
  • The head pressure that used to flare whenever I had to think too much has reduced from 10/10 to 1/10
  • The depression that once pulled me under now feels neutral
  • My stress feels manageable
  • I feel strong, loving, playful, optimistic and connected to life again

"Today I have a clear mind. I no longer beat myself up or believe I'm not good enough. I can regulate myself, set boundaries, and even coach myself with kindness. For the first time in decades, I feel amazing."

Here is what members are saying

"Had one of the best night's sleep I have had in a long time. Woke up feeling positive and full of energy. When stressful moments came up at work, I was able to approach them with love and compassion."

BS

"Tapping during the MRI was very helpful in keeping me calm and regulated. Afterwards I came home and didn't crash out, which is a new experience for me."

Julia S

"I did a round of tapping immediately and reassured my body 'we are safe' and felt so much better. The work we do here is so important and so powerful."

Kylie

"I'm feeling so hopeful. This all feels exactly like what I have needed and I feel like you are hearing me. That feels safe."

Philippa's Nervous System Recovery Story

Chronic insomnia

"For five years, I lived with chronic insomnia. I tried everything: sleep specialists, acupuncture, naturopathy, supplements, homeopathy, other approaches. Nothing worked. Every night I dreaded bedtime, because if I missed my 'sleep window,' adrenaline would surge, my thoughts would race, and I'd lie there panicking about how I'd function the next day. I felt broken, hopeless, and terrified that if I didn't sleep, everything in my life would fall apart."

After 11 sessions with Lisa, my sleep is 99 percent better.

  • I feel safer and have learned how to regulate my nervous system, release old patterns, and finally trust my body and myself again
  • I do not panic about missing a window or fear that one bad night will ruin me
  • I have the odd night that is not how I want it to be, but it is nowhere near as bad as before. I have tools I did not have before
  • I can do things again that I feared and thought were impossible: sleep next to my husband, go on holiday and sleep in a different environment, go out and have a social life and still function the next day
  • Most importantly, I no longer believe I am broken

"I know my body can do this, and I know I have the tools to support myself. That belief alone has been life-changing."

From people who have done this work

"Before working with Lisa, I had tried EFT on my own. I thought it was meant to cure me and when it did not, I gave up. What I did not realise was that EFT is really about helping regulate my nervous system, and Lisa showed me how. In the first week, the shifts were massive. The burning pain I had for months after medication dropped by 98 percent. For the first time I felt like my body was not broken."
Fiona
FionaChronic Illness, Pain, Insomnia
"Lisa brings an immediate sense of ease to her sessions. With warmth, caring and knowledge creating a sense of safety and comfort. She is confident as a practitioner with many skills to draw upon, but she also helped me to feel empowered in my own knowing and personal pace, guiding with grace and respect."
Ariel B
Ariel BEFT Practitioner
"The Lyme road is long and challenging. Around the time of my diagnosis I felt lost, confused, afraid and extremely hard done by, and was lucky enough to find a support group Lisa facilitated. Lisa was able to help me understand what Lyme was, see the next steps I needed to take, and reflect on what I considered to be barriers. The deeper knowledge I now have is taking my life in a much different direction."
Kate M
Kate MLyme, Occupational Therapist
"I was able to clear the fear and anxiety that I felt around being me and embracing my power. I have had the deepest sleep and have since gone on to pursue my dreams. Lisa is an incredible practitioner, and her ability to hold space is amazing."
Lexi C

"Once I have applied Lisa's method I feel that the anxiety and stress diminish in usually about 5 minutes and I feel a great sense of calm."

"I went on a 6-day trip and stayed regulated and took care of myself. We had two days in New York City, which is quite a chaotic place, but I felt safe there and had a good time. Despite some disagreements with family I was with, I was able to continually bring myself back to centre. I was so happy to be out and feeling good."

Built for the Australian recovery community first

This community is held by an Australian practitioner. Australian time zones (AEST/AEDT). Australian language, references, and rhythm.

There are very few recovery spaces built specifically with the Australian chronic illness community in mind. This is one of them.

International members from the United States, Canada, UK, Europe, and beyond are also welcome. All live sessions are recorded so members in any time zone can join asynchronously.

Ryan S

"Lisa was able to handle each meeting providing guidance, knowledge and a positive attitude to a room of strangers. Allowing sufferers a voice to relate and share their experiences in a safe environment. She has always given her time to talk me through what life threw at me. She has also been a voice for chronic illness sufferers in Australia and abroad, appearing on national television and at the Senate inquiry."

Ryan S · Lyme & Chronic Illness

Frequently asked

How is this different from other recovery memberships and approaches?+

Safe Ground is grounded in neuroscience, polyvagal theory, and psychoneuroimmunology, and held inside a small community with a real practitioner present. The 8 Pillars of Recovery are presented, along with many restorative pathways, so you can implement them and recover at your own pace and capacity.

I have spent so much money and been disappointed before. How do I know this will be different?+

You have likely invested in things that promised a lot and delivered little. Safe Ground is different in two ways. First, it is built on safety. Nothing here asks you to push, force, or override your body. Everything moves at the pace your nervous system can actually integrate. Second, it is held by a practitioner with over 10 years of experience and a lived understanding of chronic illness recovery, who has supported over 3,200 people through 1:1, group sessions, and trainings. You are not handed a program and left alone. What is offered is a compassionate, safe, grounded, evidence-based, practitioner-led space, paced for where you are.

How is this different from working 1:1 with Lisa?+

1:1 work is dedicated, individualised, and includes deeper trauma support and processing and personalised pacing across the full Reset Method. Safe Ground is a group community that gives you ongoing education, group coaching, community support, and access to the library. For some people the community is enough. For others it works alongside 1:1. The community is a fraction of the cost of private work.

What time zone are the live sessions in?+

All live sessions run in Australian time: Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) during winter, and Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT) during summer. Recordings are saved to the library so members in any time zone can enjoy the replays.

How often are the live sessions?+

There is at least one live session each week, and every session is recorded and added to the library.

What exactly happens in a live session?+

Each live session runs for around 60 to 75 minutes and is a mix of different types of sessions, including coaching circles with Q&A, Restorative Grounding Sessions which include somatic and nervous system resets, Key Recovery Pillar Workshops, and guest talks. You can come with something to ask or simply listen. Cameras are optional although recommended. You are welcome to lie down, rest, or move around as your body needs. Every session is recorded and added to the library, so if you cannot attend live or need to leave partway through they are available.

I am very fatigued or sensitive. Can I keep up?+

This community is built for sensitised systems. Your own pace. Your capacity. Recordings, pacing tools, and a library you can return to when your body is ready are all designed for this exact reality.

What if I join and I am too sick to participate?+

This space is designed for exactly this reality. There is no minimum you have to meet. On the hardest days, doing nothing at all is completely okay. Every live session is recorded, so you never have to be present in real time. The library is there whenever you have a small window of capacity, even if that is 15 minutes once a week. Some members engage deeply, others dip in when they can, and both are welcome. Your membership holds a steady, supportive container around you, and it waits for you when your body needs to rest.

Will I be expected to share in the group or be seen?+

All contributions are invitational and optional. You are welcome to simply listen, to type in the chat if you prefer, or to watch the recording later in your own space. You set the level of visibility that feels safe for you, and that can change from session to session. This is a space that respects hypervigilance and protection patterns rather than pushing against them.

Is this a support group?+

This space is not a traditional support group. It is a space for education, community, nervous system regulation, shared experiences, and group coaching. It is not a forum for sharing detailed personal trauma or extensive symptom stories, or getting into and sharing deep stories. It is a space for implementing Safe Ground and guided recovery questions. Trauma support and deeper personal requirements belong in a 1:1 container.

Is this trauma-informed?+

Yes. This community is intentionally trauma-informed. All live sessions and the community space are led with care, sensitivity, and nervous system safety in mind. However, this is not a space for processing deep trauma in real time. Work happens within a window of tolerance, designed to help you regulate, not overwhelm. The group format does not allow for intensive trauma release, crisis processing, or deep personal story work. If you are navigating chronic or acute trauma that needs deeper, personalised care, the 1:1 Reset Method Journey is a better next step.

Is this going to overwhelm my system or make things worse?+

This is one of the most important questions you can ask, and the answer sits at the heart of how this space is built. Safety comes first, always. The practices are paced and titrated, which means they move in small, manageable steps that stay within your capacity rather than flooding your system. You are never pushed to go deeper than feels safe. You learn to recognise your own signals and to slow down or pause whenever you need to. This is the opposite of forcing or overriding. It is about building enough safety that your system can begin to settle in its own time. That being said, everyone's capacity is different and how you respond is unique to you.

What if I miss a live session?+

If you miss a session, it is recorded and added to the library to watch as a replay.

Can I cancel any time?+

Monthly memberships can be cancelled after the 3 months. Future annual memberships can be cancelled before the next billing cycle.

Is this refundable?+

No, all purchases are final and are non-refundable. Due to the digital access nature of the resources, refunds cannot be processed for any reason. Please make sure you have read the inclusions and the 3-month commitment context before joining. Your commitment helps create safety and consistency for your system, and ensures the space remains secure for all members.

Do I need any prior knowledge of nervous system work?+

No. Education is built in. Some members will be new to this work, others have been studying it for years. The community holds both.

Can I work 1:1 with Lisa as well?+

Yes. Many members of this community also work with Lisa privately through The Reset Method, to complement the group work.

How do I access the platform?+

After joining, you'll receive login details via email. Everything is accessible from desktop or mobile. Replays, library, community, and live sessions are all in one place.

How long do I have access to the library?+

For as long as your membership is active. While you are a member, you have full access to all live sessions, replays, and resources.

Ready to start?

This is not another protocol. This is not another app. This is a guided recovery membership where your reality is taken seriously, your nervous system is met where it is, and the work happens at a pace your body can actually integrate.

Recovery happens in safety and community. Paced for your capacity.
