Your breath is automatic, but how it moves through you impacts your mental and physical health. Inspired by a recent article about breath, I share how my personal health crisis led me to the power of the breath to heal chronic conditions and restore coherence and resilience. Plus, I explore the root meaning of breath in different languages to better understand why the breath is the soul’s expression in the body.

I share about my 2011 health crisis and the valuable tools I learned through HeartMath®, a California research institute that studies the connection between heart rate variability and the nervous system and their clinically researched breathing techniques to build resilience and coherence.  

Listen in to understand how breath is our most natural tool to battle the cycle of disease, chronic pain, inflammation, mental health challenges, and emotional issues. The mind-body-soul is its own powerful healing system to restore vitality and health.
