Today, I get the honor of speaking with Christina Casey, a registered nurse and one of the few certified female WIM HOF breathwork instructors.  I attended Christina’s introductory WIM HOFF workshop in Los Angeles in 2022 where I learned not only the breathwork technique but also the science behind the methodology. 

In this episode, Christina and I dive deep into breathwork. We discuss the scientific and physiological reasons why breathwork is powerful. We also talk about the emotional and spiritual benefits of having such a practice. It truly is empowering for our bodies. 

Key Moments in the Episode:
