Akashic Records teacher and practitioner, Suzie Ridley sits down with Rosemary O’Donohue to explore breathwork and somatic practice as a grounded path back into safety, regulation, and inner freedom. If you feel stuck in anxiety, overwhelm, looping thoughts, or constant doing, this episode offers a practical, body-led perspective on how healing actually moves through.

Rosemary shares her long journey through holistic health, energy work, and trauma-informed breathwork, and how her work evolved from symptom relief into true nervous system regulation and embodied change. Together, Susie and Rosemary speak about why so many spiritual practices unintentionally encourage disassociation, and why the body must come with you on the journey, especially when you are working with stress, trauma, and repetitive emotional patterns. Rosemary also shares the foundation of her Freedom Process, including breathwork, resourcing, and simple tools to create space between you and the mind’s stories.

In this episode, you’ll learn

• Why anxiety and overwhelm are often body-based sensations first, and how somatic work helps you move beyond the story
• How breathwork supports emotional transmutation when it is held in safety, with resourcing and nervous system awareness
• What “not picking up the ticket” means, and how to create distance between you and repetitive thought loops
• Why embodiment is essential in spiritual practice, and how feeling fully can shift what the mind cannot fix
• Simple starting points: breath awareness, noticing sensation in the body, and the “relax your tongue” reset
