Is Breathwork the tool you're missing on your self-development journey?

What’s on your mind, unicorn? 🦄 Send me a text!

Have you been twisting yourself into a perfect pretzel to do all the meditation and mindfulness practices the experts have told you to do, but can't seem to make any progress on the flurry of limiting beliefs running through your mind?

So many people give up on mindfulness practices because they feel pressured to do it "perfectly" or they can't seem to quiet their mind enough to feel like it's "working."

As part of Week 1 of Brilliance of Breathwork Month: Demystifying Mindfulness, I share the two big moments where breathwork very practically came into my life as the thing that transformed my own personal journey.

These two moments were just the beginning of how impactful breathwork has been on my life, how it took me out of the suffering of the past and the "wanting" of the future so I could become fully present in the now.

In these moments, there were  two books whose ideas about mindfulness and breathwork were transformative for me:

1. Chi Running by Danny Dreyer
2. You are Here by Thich Nhat Hanh 

These books helped me to realize that, when we are in physical and emotional pain, we are living in the past. When we are dissatisfied, we are living in the future. The only place where we can be truly satisfied and complete is in the "now."

Breathwork, often overlooked in the realm of personal growth, has been gaining recognition for its incredible potential to unlock our inner potential, reduce stress, and enhance overall well-being. But what exactly is it, and how can it impact your life?

Whether you're a seasoned self-development enthusiast or just beginning your journey towards personal growth, this episode will provide you with invaluable insights and practical tools to elevate your well-being and unlock your fullest potential.


This episode is part of Briliance of Breathwork Month, an initiative to provide education and tools to demystify the profound  mental and physical impacts our breath offers to our health, wellbeing, and even our careers.
