Today's guest is Jon Paul Crimi. Our conversation could have been centered all around his life as a former Celebrity Trainer and world-renowned Sober Coach because admittedly, that's some pretty cool stuff. Instead, we talk about alopecia and the impact it had on his life when it hit him in the middle of building an acting career, in the midst of drug addiction and excessive drinking, and led him down the road to recovery and to a self-discovery of his life's work to help those suffering from addiction, abuse, PTSD and other trauma.

*This episode is full of very mature and real world issues, which I love, but may not be appropriate for young listeners. 

Right now, in a world where our breath is confined behind masks and questioned as to how much risk is involved when it's released or taken in, leads to another frame of thought. Can our breath heal us from things like trauma & crippling emotional misery?  It's one that Jon Paul doesn't ever have to question. It's been said, that having one session of breathwork with JP can transform your life more than 20 years of therapy ever has. Let's hear how he does it in today's episode of Alopecia Life.

Thank you for listening to today's episode. You may be wondering if breathwork is for you. Throughout our lives, we seek ways to feel better, to process, to even forget and avoid. If you are looking for an introduction to breathwork, especially if you are struggling with either your own alopecia or a diagnosis for your child, Jon Paul has made it even easier to access a class with him. He has extended a coupon for us to take advantage of. When registering, please add the coupon code of ALOLIFE (all caps) to get $10.00 off. Last week, I registered and was unable to attend LIVE. So I watched the replay in a quiet space, free from distraction the next day. It was awesome, and I look forward to doing it again. Please make sure to follow his advice for teenagers. Try the class first to get a feel for it. It was physically and emotionally intense, and something to experience for yourself before introducing it to them. For ways to reach Jon Paul, please see the links in the show notes to find out more about him or register for a class.
