Can your breath heal trauma?
Growing up with Tourette’s, I spent much of my childhood feeling isolated, misunderstood, and disconnected from my body. Suppressed emotion, stored stress, and nervous system dysregulation became my norm.
Until I discovered breathwork.
In this powerful episode, I sit down with renowned breathwork teacher John Paul Crimi to explore how conscious breathing can release stored trauma, regulate the nervous system, elevate energy, and rebuild self-worth.
We dive deep into:
• How trauma gets stored in the body
• The science of breathwork and nervous system regulation
• Healing childhood wounds and emotional suppression
• Breathwork for anxiety, stress, and overwhelm
• Building confidence and setting healthy boundaries
• Using breath to shift energy and emotional state
• Integrating breathwork into daily life for lasting transformation
Breathwork is more than a trend — it’s a tool for emotional healing, trauma release, and nervous system repair.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in fight-or-flight mode, struggled with anxiety, or carried emotional weight from your past — this episode will open your eyes.
This Episode Is For You If:
– You struggle with anxiety or nervous system dysregulation
– You’ve experienced childhood trauma or emotional suppression
– You want to release stored emotional pain
– You’re interested in breathwork and somatic healing
– You feel disconnected from your body
– You want practical tools for inner peace and resilience
If you’re ready to reconnect with yourself — start with your breath.
What You’ll Learn
• Why trauma lives in the body
• How breathwork calms the nervous system
• The link between breath and emotional release
