A daily Breathwork practice is key to my mental and physical health and here are some of the reasons why I practice Breathwork daily.

• Breathwork strengthens my immune system which keeps me healthy

• It provides instant relief from any stress that I may encounter in my day

• Breathwork gives me energy! Did you know that 80% of our energy comes from our Breath?

• It brings me out of my head and into my body giving me a quieter mind and greater clarity of thinking

• Breathwork improves my sleep giving me a full nights undisturbed sleep

And these are just a few of the many benefits of this practice. Please do get in touch if you are interested in learning this powerful self-healing tool.

Hello everyone

I have had some new followers recently and I wanted to hello to you all and show my face.

For those of you who don’t know me I live in Hove with my 2 children and our dog called Bertie.

I came across Breathwork a few years ago and was blown away by what a powerful self-healing tool it is. I signed up to train as a facilitator pretty much straight away and I’m passionate about teaching people this technique so they can enjoy all the amazing physical and emotional benefits that Breathwork brings.

The type of Breathwork I teach is Conscious Connected Breathing and I trained with Alan Dolan .guru who is one of the pioneers of Breathwork in the UK.

Things that bring me joy are - walking my dog on the South Downs, being part of a community, wild swimming, my children and connection.

Please say hello in the comments and tell me what brings you joy – I would love to get to know you all.

Love Claire xx

Our vagus nerve is the largest nerve in the body and acts as a counterbalance to our fight or flight system. It is the main nerve of our parasympathetic nervous system - our rest and digest mode.

The name ā€œvagusā€ comes from the Latin term for ā€œwanderingā€ and this is because this nerve wanders from the brain into the organs in the neck, chest and abdomen. It allows the brain to monitor and receive information about our bodily function such as our heart rate, digestion and immune system.

By stimulating the vagus nerve you can send a message to your body that it’s time to relax and destress which leads to long-term improvements in mood, wellbeing and can also help overcome anxiety and depression.

Breathwork along with cold showers, yoga, meditation and humming are some of the ways you can stimulate the healthy function of the vagus nerve.

I’ve just spent a weekend surrounded by a group of wonderful women. When I took these women in it really struck me how different we all are and how beautiful we all are in our own way. We are constantly surrounded by images on social media of a specific body type and shape and actually women are way more interesting and diverse than that and we should be putting more diverse images out there for our daughters/sisters to see to normalise this rather than making them think they need to fit into one mould which is impossible.

I used to think that when I got triggered by someone it was everything to do with them and nothing to do with me. When I got triggered I would react immediately with anger or maybe frustration.

When I started my breathwork training my mentor gave me the understanding that when we feel triggered it is always about our stuff and nothing to do with any one else.

Triggers can be a great way to heal past conditionings that we have all picked up from our childhood and beyond. So now when I feel triggered by someone or a certain situation I try to pause and not play out my old patterns but listen in to where this is coming from. By doing this it enables me to react in a different way therefore breaking those patterns of learnt behaviour and reactions. Why not give it a go when you next feel triggered and see what insights you can gain from this.

I went to a grief tending ceremony at the weekend where a small group of people sat around a fire and told our stories and allowed our tears to flow. We held space for those sharing their stories, listening without judgement. We tended to the fire as we tended to our grief, nurturing it and giving it the attention it needed. It was such a profound deep healing experience and I feel so much lighter and brighter for it.

It made me think that we don’t really have a space in our community to tend to and express our grief. I have always tended to my grief on my own and with an element of shame attached to it. Grief felt uncomfortable and something I would shy away from.

I would never have thought that by feeling into my grief and expressing it I would be left feeling so much love and gratitude and clarity.

Meet Bertie, he is our beautiful miniature dachshund. He spends his day following the sun around the house and is a constant reminder of the benefits of ā€˜the sunshine vitamin’ vitamin D. He also motivates me to get out of the house every day for a walk no matter what the weather.

What motivates or inspires you to get out and feel the sun on your face?

We can all look back at our past with some regrets and thoughts of doing things differently but what really only matters is the here and how.

I have a client that I work with who suffers from anxiety and bringing them into the present moment and not worrying about the past or the future has been life-changing.

When you practise breathwork you are completely in the present moment and your thoughts are calm and centred. It brings you into your body and out of your head and it really is a magical experience.

Like anything the more you practice this the more this feeling becomes the norm.

Going through cookbooks to get inspiration….

What we put in our bodies is so important and has a direct correlation with how we feel. We really are what we eat.

I seem to get in a bit of a rut with cooking the same things at times and need an injection of inspiration. I ask friends to share their favourite recipes on WhatsApp which helps give me ideas.

How do you keep inspired by what you are eating?

A lovely testimonial from one of my clients.

I worked with Lisa on a zoom session while she was in the comfort of her own home. Zoom has been an amazing way of connecting with people from all over the world making distant no object.

I’m finally getting myself back into a routine after the Christmas and New Year holidays. I remember when my kids were young and how important a routine was for them and I’m realising this is equally important for adults.

Routines help us cope with change, create healthy habits, and can reduce stress.

I was away visiting friends and family over the holidays and it was sometimes difficult to keep to my daily routines and by the end of the 2 weeks I was definitely feeling a bit unsettled and out of sync with my body. After a few days of getting back on track with my daily breathwork practice and regular exercise I am feeling so much more settled and on top of my game.

What daily routines do you have that keep your mental health on track?
