8 Benefits Of Breathwork
Breathwork is a powerful practice that can have numerous benefits for our overall well-being. Here are some of the incredible advantages of incorporating breathwork into your daily routine:

1. Stress Relief: Deep breathing techniques used in breathwork activate the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting a relaxation response and reducing stress levels. It helps to calm the mind, release tension, and alleviate anxiety.

2. Enhanced Energy and Vitality: Conscious breathing techniques can effectively increase your oxygen intake, promoting better circulation and delivering more nutrients and energy to your cells. This can result in improved energy levels, mental clarity, and overall vitality throughout the day.

3. Emotional Healing: Breathwork can be a transformative tool in releasing emotional blockages and trauma stored in the body. By consciously breathing, you create space to explore and process emotions, promoting emotional healing and allowing for personal growth and transformation.

4. Improved Focus and Clarity: Breathwork techniques can help increase concentration and mental focus by bringing awareness to the present moment. It helps to quiet the mind, improve cognitive function, and enhance overall clarity of thoughts.

5. Boosted Immune System: Deep breathing stimulates the lymphatic system, which is responsible for removing toxins from the body. By practicing breathwork regularly, you can support your immune system, strengthen your body's natural defense mechanisms, and promote overall wellness.

6. Better Sleep: Breathwork before bedtime can help calm the mind, relax the body, and promote deep relaxation. By incorporating breathwork into your nighttime routine, you can improve the quality of your sleep, enhance relaxation, and wake up feeling more rejuvenated.

7. Emotional Regulation: Breathwork techniques enable you to tap into your body's natural ability to self-regulate emotions. By consciously breathing, you can bring yourself back to a state of balance, allowing you to respond to challenging situations with more calmness, patience, and emotional stability.

8. Increased Mindfulness: Breathwork is a form of mindfulness practice that cultivates present-moment awareness. By focusing on the breath, you can bring yourself into the present moment, reduce mental chatter, and experience a deeper sense of peace and equanimity.

Incorporating breathwork into your daily routine can unlock a wide range of physical, mental, and emotional benefits. It is a simple yet profound practice that can support your overall well-being and help you live a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Being a mum has been one of my greatest accomplishments. It has also been the most challenging! When you think about it, the responsibility and the challenges motherhood brings are highly underestimated. A lot of the focus when starting a family is on conception, pregnancy, labour and the first two years.

Believe me, it's after the first two years you start knowing you’re alive!

I was not prepared for the challenges that I was facing, but who is right? These little gems don’t come with a user’s manual. I did what most mums do, I muddled through and kept the family alive and well. I did what I had to and cared for everyone but myself. This continued for years, but when my children became teenagers the game plan had to change!

The years of neglecting my well-being in addition to the challenges I was facing raising teenagers finally pushed me to breaking point! I found myself with nothing left to give – the tank was empty!

In 2017, I had the opportunity to learn and apply Psychosomatic Therapy principles to my situation, which gave me a deeper understanding of what I needed to do to help put myself back together, focus on my well-being and build my capacity to be the parent and support my teenagers during this challenging time of their lives.

I now understand and honour that in order to be the best parent you can be, you need to take care of yourself too! As I have learnt more about myself and my teenagers, I have come to be more empathetic to the challenges they face as young people today, which in turn influences the strategies I use as their parent. My knowledge has helped me to be able to see through the fog and rejoice in the amazing humans they are, despite the stress and frustration that comes with teenagers.

My experiences have inspired me to reach out and help support mums using techniques and strategies that I have had success with. My goal is to build parental capacity through self-awareness and care, through understanding your child at a deeper level in order to provide the most supportive and nurturing environment, with the view to making the parenting journey as smooth as possible.

If you're curious about how I could help you, please don't hesitate to reach out and contact me.

To your health & happiness
