Calm, Confident Brain
The short online programme to go from anxious and antsy to calm and confident, so you can feel self-assured, live life, and achieve your goals
If you've landed on this page, you're likely to be looking for a solution to your anxiety and physical stress discomfort, feeling antsy, fearful, or feeling constantly on high alert. I'm Anne Cheshire, SEP, MNIMH, trauma therapist, and trained in Peter Levine's Somatic Experiencing. I may be able to help you.
You might feel highly anxious, super-sensitive to your surroundings, or constantly on the lookout for other people's reactions. You've tried everything you can to manage your anxiety, and still you don't feel safe or comfortable.
If this is you, then please click on the video (it's just under nine minutes long). It's all to do with your unconscious brain settings. And I can show you how to change them with simple, practical exercises which will take you a few moments each day, so you can take part in life with ambition and purpose, and achieve your goals without the brakes on all the time.
Feel calm, deep down inside
Go from helpless and hopeless to feeling self-assured and in charge.
With a calm mind and body we can feel comfortable in our own skins. In this programme we use neuroscience to transform our unconscious brains' reactions, so that we actually are calm, not just putting on a good front.
Experience inner confidence
Go from constant anxiety to inner confidence.
With the inner calm we gain from short and simple, easy activities to switch off red alert and anxiety, we can begin to feel deep-down confidence and without being hi-jacked by our emotions or reactions to past events.
Switch on clarity
Find your way out of brain fog to mental clarity.
Feeling calm and confident allows us to think clearly, without missing anything or over-reacting. Say goodbye to doubt and confusion.
Great decisions are made with a calm confident brain, so you can achieve your goals!

"I was so fed up with being anxious all the time. You explained really well what was going on and showed me how to change the way my brain responds, without going into deep history. It really was just learning how to manage my brain, and that was surprisingly easy. Now I am not overwhelmed by any of my emotions, I can calm myself easily when something happens, and I feel much more confident in myself than I ever did before".

If you identify with any of these, this programme will help you.
You find yourself getting stuck in indecision and confusion and you can't take action even if you know what to do. Maybe stressful situations make you feel anxious and even a bit panicky? Chances are, you sometimes feel cut off and isolated. It's all happening in the unconscious brain.
Helping you move from anxious to calm
I'm Anne Cheshire, SEP, MNIMH, here in the beautiful city of Edinburgh. I'm a practising trauma therapist, trained in brain centred trauma therapy and somatic experiencing. My passion in life is to help people from all over the world use the power of their own brains to feel calm and confident and create a life for themselves which is totally aligned with who they are, deep down inside.
I'm a mum, a linguist, I've owned exercise studios (I still teach barre!), I've been a secondary school teacher, and I have been a trauma therapist for fifteen years. I've worked with thousands of clients and patients in one-to-one therapy, seeing them reconnect with themselves, find calm and confidence, and empower their lives. What I have found is that it's not just about knowing rationally what to do, but about enabling the unconscious brain to feel calm. And that's true, even if you have done years of 'talking therapy'. You see, the unconscious brain does not understand words!
Rooted in in-depth training and clinical experience in my field of expertise, my system helps anyone with an unconscious part of the brain (that's you!) gain calm and confidence, find their purpose in life, and get on track. I've been on that journey myself, and I'm here to be with you on your's.
YES! I'd love to feel calm and confident, but it's not so easy, is it?
I know that this sounds like a tall order. If you've ever suffered from anxiety or red alert, you've probably already tried all the usual ways to deal with hypervigilance or anxiety. You've done mindfulness, counselling, therapy, breathing exercises, even a trip to the GP for medication, but none of these have really worked.
And that's not surprising, because it's our unconscious brains which react to events and circumstances from long ago, maybe even back to childhood, and we retain patterns - survival patterns - which our unconscious brains are really reluctant to let go of. This is not your fault! Our brains are doing their best to keep us safe.
It's possible you've tried everything there is, and nothing has really worked. And you are left feeling as if there is something wrong with you (there's not!). You've even read books and gone to classes. Let's be frank - you know that if you were able to think your way out of high alert and anxiety, you would have done it by now!
This can leave us feeling useless
- stuck, as if there is no way out
- always on the alert for the next dreadful thing to happen
- paralysed, unable to take action or to think clearly
- deeply despondent or even depressed
- permanently on edge, and anxious, whilst others sail through life, self-assured and in charge
The cost can be even greater, and we find ourselves here:
- going round and round in our thoughts and wasting time
- numbing out on Netflix and FaceBook
- feeling exhausted with nothing to show for it, and wondering whether something is really wrong with us
The physical effects of overwhelming stress can be equally distressing:
- heart pounding and increased heart rate
- tight jaw, headache or eye strain
- digestive problems like bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, nausea and IBS symptoms
Here's the thing! It doesn't have to be like that! There's not something wrong with you, and there is a way out, a new way.
If you're like most people with anxiety and high alert, or unable to feel truly confident, chances are you didn't even know it's not your fault, that your brain was trying to keep you safe. But now you can learn to use a system based on neuroscience which gives you simple, easy tools to be calm and self-assured, and live your life with inner confidence.
The old way... or a totally different new way
If you are ready to say goodbye to the old way of always being on red alert, then you are probably asking "how"?
Say hello to the new way in The Calm, Confident Brain, a programme in which we show your unconscious brain how to be calm and confident without expensive therapy or digging into the past.
It's not a course or a diploma, and you don't "think about" how you feel, it's a system where you DO quick, simple things to change the way your brain responds.
Your brain learns new patterns effortlessly with repetition.

I'm Anne Cheshire, and I'm the creator of this programme The Calm, Confident Brain. Here's what it's all about.
It's been a difficult time recently, for everyone. Since back in early 2020 we have been managing unprecedented stress and, for some, there's been real hardship and heartache. I was hardly able to see my children in London, including my beautiful, tiny grandchilden. A visit from my son and his wife from New Zealand was cancelled, and I miss them all. But I have been one of the lucky ones, in that I have managed to keep heathy, and keep working. In fact my job as a trauma therapist has never been more in demand.
And that's what made me rethink, and go deep into what I can offer to many, not just on a one-to-one basis. What could I offer, which would help anyone, anywhere, calm their brain activity and improve their confidence and their mental health. What could I give, that would help people manage the incredibly difficult circumstances we have all been through, and that on top of 'normal' life?
This programme is the outcome of that rethink. I have distilled from two decades of private practice, what it takes to calm the brain and gain confidence. The result is this six-part programme, including essential first-aid for right now. I've created videos of how I teach this to my one-to-one clients, which you can replay again and again, do it with me, and feel your brain calming. It is the crucial foundation for making life decisions with ease and confidence, and for feeling good in your own skin. And it's a stand-alone programme which you can use at any time, in any place.
I would be honoured if you were to join us.

Who is this programme for?
A quick check to see if this is right for you. This programme is for you if you want this:
- You want to discover how to take charge of your own brain for ever, and calm its reactions.
- You want to make deep-down fundamental changes in the way you respond to life.
- You want super-simple, quick and easy steps to follow so you can begin to feel calm and confident from the start.
- You want the power to decrease anxiety and high alert in your own brain, in the part of the brain where it is actually happening.
- You want clear understanding about how our brains work to keep us safe, and how they become stuck in survival patterns.
- You want support and encouragement along your journey, as well as expert advice and help.
- You want instant access to a programme which enables you to discover how to gain calm and confidence, step by step.
- You want to make the discoveries alongside others on this journey in our optional supportive private Facebook group.
Who this programme is not for:
It's really important to know what this programme does not do, and if you want any of these, this programme is probably not for you:
- This is not a quick fix. After years and maybe decades of unconscious brain patterns, the change doesn't happen overnight. But, however long these unhelpful patterns have been there, you CAN change them, step by step.
- This is not something which happens TO you. You follow along, and do the exercises yourself, because that's what changes your brain. It doesn't work if you just think about it!
- This is not therapy - it's coaching. So it's not about digging into the murky past or retelling your story over and over (that will make it worse). It's about you changing how your brain responds right now so that you can live life the way you want to.
