It’s what we do with our stress that matters! In this episode, I interview Steven Jaggers, and we go deep on the mind-body connection. We discuss Somatic Breathwork as a powerful modality to regulate the nervous system from trauma, stress, and overwhelm. We discuss the ways that we as a human race have gotten away from our animalistic roots and have moved out of our bodies and into our minds. The purpose of Somatic Breathwork is to liberate people from the unprocessed parts of themselves and elevate their being to a more connected state.
