Welcome to The Reset Lab — Start Here
From skepticism to embodiment: how nervous system work changed my life, and why I built The Reset Lab.
Hey friends! Many of you know me, but for those who don’t, I’m Dr. Matt Smith. And I have something I’m really excited to share with you.
First, a little about me and the unexpected path that brought me into this work.
I’m a husband to my incredible wife, Dr. Monica, who’s not only my partner in life but also the co-creator of REV Optimal Living, the healing center we’ve built together, alongside my sister and sister-in-law here in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
I’m a dad to our beautiful children, Rocky and Lyon, who remind me daily why this work matters.
And for nearly a decade, I’ve had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life…guiding them through chronic stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, PTSD, autoimmune challenges, and the many ways disconnection shows up in the body.
What I’ve learned (over and over again) is that behind almost every symptom, sickness, or diagnosis, there’s often something much deeper happening:
👉 A disconnection from the intelligence that lives inside the nervous system—the master control system of the body.
Ironically, if you told me 10 years ago that I’d be teaching about energy, coherence, and subconscious programming, I probably would’ve laughed.
I was the guy who thought this stuff sounded like pure woo-woo nonsense.
But then something shifted.
I started meditating.
I started receiving nervous system work.
I started getting curious about what science couldn’t fully explain.
And most importantly, I started witnessing undeniable transformations…both in my own life, and in the lives of the people I worked with.
What began as skepticism evolved into a deep, embodied understanding of how powerful the mind-body connection truly is.
Through the years, I’ve gone deep into neuroscience, quantum physics, epigenetics, trauma healing, somatic work, breathwork and the intersection between science and spirituality.
At REV Optimal Living, we’ve now helped nearly 3,000 people create real, lasting shifts in their health, their emotional regulation, their sense of peace, and their connection to themselves.
Recently, we held a full-day immersion for our local REV community. A beautiful experience that reminded me of something essential:
Sometimes, what we truly need…is simply a reset.
Life moves fast. Stress compounds. Subconscious patterns get stuck on loop.
And often, we just need a space to pause—to reconnect with the intelligence inside us …and to reset.
That’s why I created The Reset Lab.
Because sometimes, we don’t need another overwhelming program or complicated protocol. We just need a space to reset the nervous system, rewire subconscious patterns, and reestablish coherence inside the body.
Here inside The Reset Lab, twice a month you’ll receive:
✍️ Deep Dive Lessons — where I’ll break down nervous system regulation, subconscious programming, trauma patterns, vibrational healing, and how to create real, sustainable change. All rooted in both science and ancient wisdom.
🎧 Coherence Sessions — 15 to 20 minute guided breathwork & embodiment sessions to help you feel the reset inside your system, not just learn about it intellectually.
We officially launch July 1st.
Whether you’re brand new to nervous system work or you’ve been walking this path for years, my hope is that The Reset Lab becomes a rhythm for you. A space where you’re able to pause, reset, and continue the ongoing process of healing and embodiment.
If this work resonates with you, I’d love for you to subscribe and join me inside The Reset Lab. Twice a month, on the 1st and 15th, you’ll receive a new Deep Dive Lesson and Coherence Session to help you reset your system, rewire your subconscious, and embody your healing.
I’m so grateful that you’re here.
And I look forward to seeing you inside.
—Dr. Matt
