JUST BREATHE

Welcome to the new Do It Like A Lady mini-series, where I'll be interviewing the most inspiring women I know to make women VISIBLE, as well as to bring you world-class expertise on how to live your most optimal, fulfilled life - the key to which, I believe, is good health.

In today's episode, I'll be chatting with Jenny Clark, Founder of The Wild Times retreats, created to help you reconnect to yourself, through reconnecting with nature through rest, play, exploration and flow. Jenny runs retreats all over the UK and beyond which centre around simply being, outside, grounding into our bodies and into nature and properly slowing down, whilst also challenging ourselves, trying new things, being open to learning and having a complete beginners mindset, flowing, exploring, and finding that childlike sense of wonder.

"On The Wild Times retreats I love sharing the practice of yoga and any tools, techniques or little things that I have figured out along the way that can help others feel more connected to their bodies, to others and the world. " - Jenny Clark

Hello and welcome to season two of Just Breathe! It's so good to be back. As mentioned in the intro, I am the new breath work amabassador for JENNIS an incredible app, founded by Jessica-Ennis Hill to help women live in accordance with their menstrual cycle.

In today's episode, i'll be chatting to Zora Benhamou, a 50+ gerontologist, nomad and podcast host of the Hack My Age podcast, focusing on biohacking for women over 50. Zora is on a mission to disrupt ageist stereotypes so women in their 50s, 60s and 70s no longer need to say “60 is the new 40” and just show how amazing 60 looks and feels like.

A gerontologist is someone who studies ageing from a biological, sociological and psychological perspective. We know that healthy ageing is not only about diet and exercise. It’s so much more. We look at the whole life course and experiences that occur during this lifetime to see how it affects the ageing process.

We can TURN ON the “good” genes to feel and look younger than we are while preventing certain lifestyle diseases. However, if “undesirable” genes turn on, they can lead to fatigue, weight gain, lifestyle diseases like diabetes, heart attacks, cancer and a shorter health span. Healthspan is how I measure my lifespan in good health, free of disease and full of vitality. We can live to 100, but starting from 40 on we may live with illness, looking and feeling older than our chronological age OR WE CAN LIVE THOSE 40, 50, 60+ LAST YEARS WITH AMAZING VITALITY, INDEPENDENCE and with a biological age much younger than our chronological age.

I empower the modern woman to take ageing into their own hands, slow it down or embrace it by sharing the secrets of longevity I learn from ageing populations around the world. We all have the capacity for a younger biological age. Become the BEST version of yourself."  - Zora

In today’s episode I’ll be having a powerful conversation with Oxygen Advantage Advanced Instructor and Pilot, Andy from Resilient Aviator. Andy is a Training Captain on the Airbus A330, and after discovering the benefits of functional breathing for himself, he is now championing the use of breathwork for pilots to improve performance and reduce stress and fatigue for success and longevity in this demanding career.

Pilots enjoy a lot of responsibility, but typically work unsociable hours with fatiguing schedules and are constantly assessed, often encountering complex problems. These factors are also experienced by many others in society so the concepts are widely applicable. In over twenty years of flying, Andy has experienced many developments in safety, training methods and aviation human factors - the interface between pilots and how they operate an aircraft under different pressures and demands.

Using his many years of experience, Andy is on a mission to provide tangible techniques and training to develop pilots using real awareness of their physiology, empowering them to take control of their autonomic nervous system with the breath. Andy is sharing the wide-ranging benefits of breathwork to perfectly complement more ‘traditional’ pilot training- supporting quality of life and enabling calm, confident, resilient and balanced decision-makers in the cockpit.

Follow Andy on Instagram at Resilient Aviator for all his latest amazing content.

Visit Andy’s website for information on how he can provide airlines with real-life human factors initial and recurrent training using breathwork, plus workshops and one-to-one coaching.

Andy will be joining David Jackson, Catherine and Lizzie at Rooted Life’s next Connection event- ‘Rest, Recharge, Reorientate’ in the Cotswolds on the 2nd Oct.

In today's powerful episode I'll be chatting to Fleur Conway, aka Fleur core prana about the power of the breath through peri/post-menopause. This is a chapter of life where so many women feel isolated, unseen and unheard due to limited resources and nowhere near enough dedicated studies. Fleur is working with many women to make menopause a smoother transitional process, making it one of empowerment rather than being victims of their own bodies. Fleur’s life has always been about being in connection with nature, and animals and finding understanding, balance and coherence with the natural laws of life.

Over the years she has studied and gained much knowledge in many areas of health and wellness for both animals and people, where she integrates all aspects of Mind Body and Soul into the healing process of each individual.

She is a certified Low-Pressure Fitness instructor which opened up the doors to further research and a deeper interest in the Breath. (Low-Pressure Fitness is a comprehensive fitness discipline which deeply involves posture, breathwork, hipopressive & neurodynamic exercises)

Fleur has always felt there was a lack of consciousness and continuity regarding the breath throughout daily life and this is where Oxygen Advantage has filled that emptiness and has now provided her with the knowledge and tools she felt were lacking.

“If a person’s breath is out of balance, their whole being will be out of balance”

Fleur was featured in the book Well-Being for Children: A handbook for parents to support the emotional well-being of their children is officially available in Kindle & paperback.

Today's powerful conversation is with the founder and organiser of the Children's Mental Health Matters summit, Cassie Swift. Cassie is the founder of her children's life coaching company, True You, whereby the summit was born after receiving an overwhelming demand from practitioners to spread their knowledge. She now has over 50 speakers at the summit talking the topics of dealing with eating disorders, self-harm and anxiety in children and teens as well as menstrual cycle awareness for first-time teens, guided by myself, hypnotherapy, the power of affirmations, dealing with trauma, coping with tantrums, you name it, it's on there!

Tickets are only £7.00 to cover costs, with the wealth of knowledge involved it really is a no brainer so make sure you get your tickets using the link below:

https://childrensmentalhealthmatterssummit.co.uk

More on the summit below: 

"This event has been curated from our passion for children’s mental health and the need to grow awareness. We want to help people learn more so that we are more educated and able to help our children better. The concept was birthed through the idea of wanting to bring a few professionals together in order to share their insights and to help families who need and want support.

What has transpired is an event of 50 speakers sharing their expertise, which will enable you to learn, understand and help your family become connected and calmer. As a child myself, I experienced bullying throughout my entire school life and due to this, I obviously didn’t enjoy school. I wish that there had been a Children’s Life Coach I could have turned to because as a result over the years my mental health deteriorated. This is not something I wish for any child and no child deserves to feel this way or experience what I went through." - Cassie Swift

In today's powerful conversation i'll be chatting to Dr Crisitna Fraval about all things Osteopathy, orofacial myofunctional therapy (OMT) and of course, breathing! 

Christina's story is awe inspiring, I hope you really enjoy the conversation..

More about Christina:

"Through my work as an osteopath, I started to notice more and more breathing issues as part of the clinical picture in my patients. This gave me the impetus to further my knowledge and study OMT and Buteyko based breathing education. In the last 5 years I have worked with adults and children in resolving breathing dysfunction. I work collaboratively with various wholistic dentists with a focus in sleep medicine assisting patients with mouth breathing, teeth grinding, snoring, sleep apnoea, malocclusion, pre-orthodontics, jaw pain, craniofacial pain and tongue tie.

One of my children from a young age had issues with blocked ears, chronic congestion, mouth breathing, behavioural issues, bed wetting and dental crowding. Through my study and working with a wholisitic dentist I was able help my son overcome many of these issues by incorporating OMT and breathing exercises alongside the osteopathic treatment he received.

I believe we all have the ability to heal from within given the right environment. The body has a self healing mechanism which is constantly striving for optimum health."
