Breathe to Heal & Change Your Life with Amy Novotny
In this episode of Becoming Unapologetically Me, host Helen Norbury delves into Amy Novotny’s journey from a successful career as a physical therapist to traveling the world and eventually starting her own business. Amy discusses her innovative methods for relieving chronic pain through breathing techniques, her life-changing travel experiences in the Arctic and Antarctica, the lessons learned from enduring challenging environments, and her inspiring journey into motherhood via IVF. Additionally, Amy shares insights into ultra-marathon running and the importance of maintaining physical and mental health through proper nutrition and self-care practices. This episode is a deep dive into resilience, adaptability, and the pursuit of personal growth and authenticity.
Dr. Amy Novotny founded the PABR® Institute with the mission to provide pain, stress and anxiety relief to those who seek a naturalistic form of treatment when other treatment methods have fallen short. Her unique approach comes from her experience treating in a variety of settings and with a wide range of patient populations over the past 15 years. Her background in orthopedics, sports, geriatrics, balance disorders, nerve injuries, and most recently, chronic pain; and influences from coursework at the Postural Restoration Institute gave her the foundation to develop this treatment method to address a wide variety of painful and restrictive conditions. Her methods have helped countless people reduce and eliminate pain, stress, anxiety, orthopedic surgeries, sleep issues and the need for medications.
She co-authored two Amazon #1 Best-Selling books Don’t Quit: Stories of Persistence, Courage and Faith and Success Habits of Super Achievers, which share her journey on how and why she developed the PABR® Method. She also co-authored Wall Street Journal Best Seller, From WTF to OMG, With a Little LOL: Unpacking Entrepreneurs' Hidden Lessons.
Her ability to speak French and Spanish has allowed her to communicate with and help various clients from all around the world, including France, Mexico, Central America and South America. She has a variety of interests including running 40+ marathons, running 10 ultra marathons (including two 100 milers), completing an Ironman triathlon, photographing wildlife and landscapes all over the world that has led to several of her images being chosen as Photos of the Day, most notably National Geographic Your Shot World Top Photo of the Day.
