The Hero Journey

If one breathe could have the biggest positive effect on your life, what would it be? It would be the Golden Breath, or the 4/6 breath. Why? Because this breath serves three important functions:

1. Maximum O2 per inhale and CO2 per exhale

2. Stimulates your parasympathetic nervous system

3. Optimum frequency for heart and brain coherence

Just give yourself 2 minutes, breathe in your nose for 4-seconds, and exhale for 6-seconds. Enjoy your day!

The magic isn’t in “doing” anything; it’s in being. Being is in the present, where life is actually occurring, and there is nothing you can “do” to add or take away from living. Remember this.

We are all born with three innate tools for our healing: breath, sound and movement. At THJ, we use the movement of boxing HIIT, combined with integrative breathwork, and restorative stretching, to facilitate personal transformation. Every breath, every sigh and every punch is one step closer to wholeness. This isn’t a workout; it’s an initiation.

Emotions are meant to move through you, not stay trapped within you.
Problems arise the moment you resist or suppress them. Maybe the feeling is uncomfortable. Maybe you’ve been taught it’s not appropriate. Maybe someone once told you that certain emotions make you “bad.” Whatever the reason, when you choose not to express what you feel, that energy doesn’t disappear—it lodges in your body, waiting to be seen and released.

You might think you’ve buried the emotion and moved on, but as Freud warned, “Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways.”

Behind the walls we build, and beneath the layers of “safety” that we hide beneath, lies our true Self: still, peaceful and present. Only those who are willing to go beyond the illusion know this truth.

Representing our new shirts in green! Why green? Green represents the heart. Our first cornerstone is courage and the root of this word means “heart”. To have courage literally means to “have heart”, and this is why we are representing the green with these shirts.

Be courageous!!

“Emotions can feel overwhelming, often lingering far longer than expected. A single frustrating conversation or a moment of embarrassment can replay in the mind for hours, shaping the rest of the day. However, in reality, the initial emotional reaction itself lasts only 90 seconds—anything beyond that is fueled by ongoing mental engagement.”

“A neuroscientist Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor, who discovered that when an emotional response is triggered, the brain releases a surge of neurochemicals that create physiological sensations such as a racing heart, tense muscles or a sinking feeling in the stomach. If we do nothing to feed the emotion, this chemical reaction naturally dissipates within 90 seconds. Any emotion that persists beyond this timeframe is sustained by repeated thoughts about the triggering event…” -Mark Travers
