Description
In today’s episode, I am joined by Rob Rea, a breathwork practitioner and coach based in London. Rob delves into the ancient practice of breathwork, emphasizing its significance in modern life filled with stressors. He speaks to the science behind this ancient practice explaining how it can help shift our nervous system from a heightened state to a more relaxed state, providing a natural method for managing stress and enhancing overall well-being.Rob shares how breathwork can help manage stress by fostering mindfulness and awareness of one's breathing patterns, allowing for better control over the body's response to stress. He also speaks to different types of breathwork practices, like conscious connected breathing, which can induce altered states of consciousness and emotional release. While there are more simple breathing techniques, it’s quite impressive that the breath alone can help us in processing unresolved trauma under these more advanced techniques.We also discuss:Rob Rea's journey into breathwork and how its ancient origins link to yogaImpact of modern life stressors on the nervous system and how breathwork can helpImportance of building awareness of one's breath and recognizing stress patternsBenefits of nasal breathing and simple breathing exercisesAdvanced breathwork techniques for processing unresolved traumas and improving mental healthWhen breathwork is contraindicated and who should refrain from practicing itBut, ultimately, Rob underscores the transformative power of breathwork in improving both mental and physical health.CONNECT WITH OUR GUESTInstagram: @robrea__Website: www.robrea.co.ukFree Breathe Easy Playlist Other resources mentioned: ‘Rewire’ by Nicole Vignola | @nicolesneuroscience PARTNERSToday’s episode is brought to you by:OSEA Malibu: Enjoy 10% off site-wide with code ALYSONHALEY10 at checkoutCurrentBody: Enjoy 15% off on any product with code ALYSONHALEY at checkoutAre you a brand wanting to inquire about ad placement?
