To the Coaches, Therapists, and Space Holders Who Feel Like Something’s Missing…
Jul 30, 2025
I've worked with hundreds ( maybe thousands at this point) of men and women through the body, the breath, and the nervous system. This is the letter I needed to write to the brilliant space holders who feel there's more.
When people ask me what I do.... I really have to pause. I struggle honestly to put to words what happens inside a breathwork session... It's like explaining with words what happens in a plant medicine experience.... you kind of CAN'T.
it's to be experienced to really grasp.... and even then one can be left with a " wowwwwhat just happened....."
The body is brilliant, let's just start there... the subconscious is a powerful tool that both keeps us safe and also keeps us stuck. Stuck in looped behaviours, patterns, stories, pains, beliefs.... and there is a while, sometimes a long while that we feel comfortable there. It's normal. it's "who we are, just how we are".... until it's not.
There comes a time in our life that we KNOW.... something needs to shift... we KNOW that the repeated issues, dramas, stories, experiences etc are in part due to US... yes YOU ..... ME... US not having yet tended too "healed" cleared the old story, the emotion of the pattern, the energy of the pattern that LITERALLY lives in your subconscious. AKA your body
Without Breathwork I'm not sure how long I would have gone just holding it all.... fighting it internally, feeling half myself at best, feeling like SOMETHING had to change but not knowing what...... it wasn't until I landed in a Conscious Connected Breathwork session that I felt FOR THE FIRST TIME the way my BODY was holding onto the emotions , the energy the grief, the fear, the abandonment, the rage.... all of it, very much alive within me, and had gone UN NAMED.
With CCB ( conscious connected breathwork ) we get to access the subconscious, the subtle spaces of the body, the spaces where all of our "sh!t" lives.... you know ... the good stuff ;) This is a type of access point that talk therapy simply can not access.
The emotions and energy we hold in our body don't often have WORDS, it doesn't have language AS WE KNOW language to be. It's a language of FELT SENSES, sound ( but not necessarily words) and often movement ( tremors, twitches, undulation, shaking etc). The immense amount of relief one can feel after experiencing such "language" such release is often shared as "I've never felt so free in my body" " I feel full, like head to toe, every cell feels like LOVE, I am love, it's all love" " I have everything I ever needed, It's all in ME" ...
I've heard more times than I can count "I have been in therapy for X amount of years and I feel more relief, more clarity, more freedom in one hour than in all of those years" I personally feel this EVERY SINGLE TIME I experience a practice.
The body holds so much wisdom that we simply MISS if we are constantly connecting to the mind, the thinking mind. The medicine we all need is within ourselves. It always has been. It's simply waiting patiently to support.......
For the space holders, the coaches, therapists, healers...... imagine for a moment what impact you could be making.... even MORE than you already are.... and perhaps sooner even, if you were offering CCB in your practices.
Imagine having the tools to hold your clients in a new way, with depth, and tenderness that offers space for the deepest parts of us to be seen, heard, healed.... sometimes JUSt with the presence of a loving other.
Imagine holding the space for the wisdom of THEIR body, their soul to move through what is truly ready, in it's own intelligent timeline.
The ripple effect will change the world ... Im sure of it xxx
