Your breath is your autobiography.

The way you breathe right now is the story of everything you’ve been through. Shallow, held, controlled, every pattern has a reason.

The good news: you can write a new chapter. One breath at a time.

Lesson 9 of 50. Turning 50 this year.
50 things I know now that I wish I’d known sooner.

Ten years in the ice. Here’s what it’s actually taught me:

1. The sooner I surrender, the sooner my life gets better.
2. Fighting the cold makes it worse. Fighting anything does.
3. Fear of the ice is appropriate. I’m not interested in being fearless.
4. The ice doesn’t make me strong. It showed me that I don’t have to be
5. Sometimes I use the ice to release stuck emotions. My way: get out of the way!
6. Sometimes I use the ice as an oracle. When I’m dysregulated, I go in with a question. And often get out with the answer.
7. It is ok not to be ok. The ice bath starts when I get out. What I do in the minutes after, that’s the real practice.

Come find out what the cold has to teach you!

Joy is not a reward 🧐

It is your natural state, buried under layers of protection. I didn’t discover this until my late 40s. The joy was never gone. It was just underneath everything I’d built to stay safe.

🌿 **Monday Ritual — Breathwork & Authentic Relating**

This Monday, we breathe, slow down, reconnect, and come back to ourselves.

A few words from last week’s participants:

> “It felt so beautiful to be with you again and fully release with sound. I was reminded of how potent an online session can be.” 🤍 — Grace

> “This session allowed me to slow down, reconnect with myself and remember that presence is more powerful than intensity. I left feeling grounded, recharged and deeply connected.” — Angelo

If you feel called to join us, I’d love to breathe with you.

**Monday • 6–8pm Bali time**
Breathwork • Authentic Relating • Circling

Hi everyone,

After a month in Canada celebrating my 50th birthday, I'm back!

I spent two weeks off-grid in the wilderness, living in a van with no phone signal. On my birthday I got a flat tire over 100 km from the nearest decent road... somehow a fitting summary of my first 50 years!

I didn't get eaten by a bear, eventually got help, and even managed to have birthday cake.

More importantly, I feel something shifted during this trip. I came back feeling softer, more grounded, and I noticed a different quality in the way I facilitated while I was in Canada. I think I like this version of myself a little more.

I'm excited to be back facilitating our online Breathwork Ritual this Monday, 6–8 pm Bali time, and I'd love to breathe with you.

Looking forward to seeing some of you there.

Three weeks ago I sat with a man who told me he hadn't cried in twenty years. Not because nothing hurt — because he'd built a life optimized for not feeling. Halfway through his second breathwork session, something cracked open. He cried for forty minutes. Then he laughed. Then he said, "I forgot I was allowed to cry sometimes."

I've watched this happen close to hundreds of times now, in twenty-plus cohorts of the facilitator training here in Ubud. And every time, I'm reminded why I built this thing in the first place.

Here's the honest story:

I didn't come to breathwork because I was thriving. I came because I was depressed and out of ideas after the mother of my kids left me. The breath and the cold were the first things that got me back into my own body after years of living entirely in my head. I didn't set out to build a school. I just kept doing the work, kept getting asked to share it, and eventually realized: this is the thing. This is what I'm here to hand to other people.

Ten years and 7,000+ guided sessions later, I've trained close to 600 facilitators who are now doing this work in over 40 countries. I've learned how to create a space where people stop performing and start actually meeting themselves.

That's what the next 3 weeks in Bali are for.

August 9–28. Ubud.

This isn't a weekend workshop that leaves you inspired for a week and then fades. It's a full immersion — five modules taking you from your own healing, through the physiology and philosophy of breathwork, into trauma-informed facilitation, group dynamics, and finally into supervised practice where you actually facilitate sessions and get real feedback before you leave.

You'll walk out with:
→ A recognized facilitator certification
→ Hands-on experience facilitating both 1:1 and group sessions
→ A trauma-informed framework you can trust under pressure
→ A global community of graduates who've got your back
→ And — this is the part people don't expect — a completely different relationship with your own nervous system

Who this is for:

Maybe you're already a yoga teacher, coach, or therapist and you can feel that your clients need something your current toolkit doesn't give you.

Maybe you've done a breathwork session yourself and you already know, in your bones, that you're meant to be on the other side of this work — guiding, not just receiving.

Or maybe you're just tired of living small, and some part of you knows the fastest way through is to help someone else find their way through first.

Whichever door you're walking through — this room is built for you.

Practical stuff:

Only 2 early-bird spots remain at $3,480 USD (regular $3,980). If money is the only thing standing between you and this, reach out — I've never turned someone away from this work over finances, and I'm not about to start now. There's also a full scholarship spot for anyone actively working with refugees or in prison systems.

I built this training because someone once gave me a room like this when I needed it most. Now I get to be the one holding the door open.

If you've been circling this decision for weeks or months — this is your sign. Spots are limited.

A question for fellow breathworkers and practitioners...

At what point does a personal practice become something you're ready to share with others?

Over the years, I've met many people who have experienced profound shifts through breathwork — from reducing stress and anxiety, to emotional healing, deeper self-awareness, and a greater sense of connection.

Yet many hesitate when it comes to facilitating.

Not because they lack passion, but because they want to develop the confidence, skills, and understanding needed to guide others safely and effectively.

Questions like:

• How do I facilitate a powerful breathwork journey?
• How do I create a safe environment for people to explore?
• How do I work with strong emotions that may arise?
• How do I combine technique with presence, intuition, and genuine human connection?

These are some of the foundations I explore in my BreathingCold Breathwork Facilitator Training in Bali this August.

The training goes beyond breathing techniques. It combines breathwork science, nervous system regulation, trauma-informed facilitation, authentic relating, somatic practices, cold exposure, and ongoing mentorship.

My intention is not simply to teach people how to guide a breathing session, but to support them in becoming more grounded, connected, and confident facilitators.

Have you experienced the power of breathwork and felt the call to go deeper?

Not just to practice it for yourself, but to learn how to safely guide others through transformation?

This July in Bali, I'm facilitating an immersive Breathwork Facilitator Training for those who want to develop the skills, confidence, and presence required to facilitate powerful breathwork journeys.

You'll learn:
✨ The science and psychology behind Breathwork
✨ How to create safe and transformative spaces
✨ Trauma-aware facilitation principles
✨ The art of guiding emotional release and integration
✨ 1:1 and Group facilitation skills
✨ How breathwork can be combined with nervous system regulation and cold exposure
✨ The inner work required to become an authentic facilitator

If you're curious, send me a DM and I'll happily share the details.

Nasal breathing during exercise can be a game changer.

It helps improve oxygen efficiency, increases CO₂ tolerance, and activates the diaphragm for deeper, more effective breaths.

Breathing through your nose also helps keep you calmer, reduces over-breathing, and can improve endurance by training your body to use oxygen more efficiently.

Start simple: during your next walk, jog, or workout, try breathing only through your nose and notice what changes.

Your breath isn’t just fueling movement—it’s training your nervous system.

Have you tried nasal breathing while exercising?
