Welcome to the very first episode of my Summer of Beautiful Breath series.
If you’ve ever thought, “Breathwork sounds lovely… but I never actually remember to do it when life gets stressful,” then this episode is for you.
As a nervous system coach, I’ve seen time and again how just a few intentional breaths can completely change how we feel, think and respond. The challenge isn’t whether breathwork works. It’s remembering to use it in everyday life.
In this episode, I share a simple exercise to help you discover whether you’re naturally breathing into your chest or your belly, why this matters for your nervous system, and how you can begin retraining your breathing with just a few minutes of practice each day.
Throughout the summer I’ll be releasing a collection of short, practical breathing exercises and somatic tools designed to help you feel calmer, think more clearly, reduce stress and build a greater sense of safety within your body.
Whether you’re living with anxiety, burnout, overwhelm, or simply want to feel more grounded, these episodes are designed to become a peaceful few minutes in your day.
You’ll learn:
• The difference between chest breathing and diaphragmatic breathing
• How breath influences your nervous system
• Why the vagus nerve plays such an important role in stress regulation
• A breathing practice you can start today
• How tiny daily habits can create lasting change
