Welcome to Changing Ways

Karyn Chalk, Changing Ways, Dunedin. New Zealand

Karyn Chalk, Director of Changing Ways, is a trauma- and neuroscience-informed wellbeing coach and brain health trainer based in Dunedin, New Zealand. At the heart of her work is the belief that supporting brain health is essential to overall mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing.

Karyn brings together extensive training and experience in neuroscience-based wellness approaches, combining practical tools with evidence-informed strategies to help people optimise brain function. Her work integrates brain health training and education, positive neuroplasticity, havening techniques, and neuro-linguistic programming to support improved wellbeing, resilience, and productivity.

Karyn’s approach emphasises that when brain health is prioritised, other areas of life—including relationships, work, emotional balance, and overall wellbeing—are better supported.

  • Individual coaching sessions to understand your brain, and learn tools to be the best version of yourself.

  • Brain Health training and education opportunities. Over the year she offers online education sessions. She also offers training to groups and organisations including emotional regulation, wellbeing and building happier brains.

  • Key note speaker at events and conferences. Karyn has extensive experience in offering high quality, fun, informative and research backed presentations to a wide range of audiences.
