Radio ditto presents Campfire, where we talk to inspiring folk from the worlds of tech, art and culture. 

In this episode, we chat with breathwork and meditation coach Michael McCaffrey. He shares his frank personal journey of wellbeing and how meditative breathing techniques have transformed his life. 

From a troubled childhood blighted with anxiety and depression, Michael’s journey saw him walk the lonely road of addiction. After a sudden wake-up call Michael realised that he didn’t want to continue a self-destructive way of life, a curiosity into meditation saw Michael experience meditative retreats around the UK before heading to Nepal and Dehli to practice Buddhism. For the past 6 years Michael has been successfully running his very own meditation retreats, sessions and breathwork practice – Breathing Space Wellness.
