In this profound episode of Beyond Trauma, I sit with renowned breathwork teacher and author Max Strom to explore the breath's transformative power in releasing trauma, healing grief, and reclaiming emotional well-being.

Together, we dive into:

• The fears and misconceptions people hold about releasing emotion through breathwork—and why it’s safer than you might think
• How group work can provide the emotional safety and support necessary for deep healing
• The vital role of breath in traditional yoga—and how modern practice sometimes misses the mark
• Cultural differences in how we process grief and pain
• What it means to heal in community
• How Max’s workshops foster long-term connection and ongoing emotional healing

Max also shares one of his signature breathing practices, guiding listeners through a gentle yet powerful exercise that can be revisited anytime you need grounding, clarity, or emotional release.

Whether you're a trauma survivor, a practitioner, or someone seeking to reconnect with your breath and your body, this episode offers actionable insights and soul-level truth.
