By now you probably know my story, about how I struggled with binge eating and hating my body for years. It wasn’t until I realized that fad diets were a load of surface-level BS and that I needed to go waaaay deeper to heal myself that I finally started to recover. You know that meditation was one of the ways I overcame my struggle, but so was breathwork. In fact, to this day, it is still the most healing modality I have ever experienced, which is why I wanna make it mainstream and teach the world to breathe, feel, and thrive 🙂

This is why you’ll turn to things like food or alcohol to “feel better instantly,” though fleetingly, again and again.
Breathwork can help you unclog the emotionality and trauma that has blocked you from real healing and transformation for so long. There are actually a ton of benefits when it comes to breathwork, here are a few:
I encourage you to try breathwork for yourself! I even made it super easy for you by creating a free breathwork audio (cause I’m cool like that 😉 You can get it here.
