Today I just want to share with you three simple things that I want you to keep in mind this new year. Number one: Start small.

This Thanksgiving week, we're focusing on giving yourself permission to prioritize YOU. Over the last couple of weeks, we talked about the stories we tell ourselves and how they can hold us back from feeling less stressed, less pain, and more joy and fulfillment. If you missed those, go back and listen; they’re game-changers. Today, it’s all about permission. Permission to pause, reset, and recharge your system. As someone who thrives on helping others, I’ve learned (the hard way many times) that you can’t give from an empty cup. Whether you’re a celebrity, athlete, or just trying to...
info_outlineI’m thrilled to host Regina Lawrence, an expert in breathwork and sound healing. Regina's journey from a high-powered attorney to a transformative wellness practitioner is as fascinating as it is inspiring.
Regina, once a successful trial lawyer and law professor, experienced a pivotal moment in her career when she faced a severe panic attack in her office. This life-altering event led her to question her path and ultimately left her seeking a deeper, more fulfilling way of life.
Moving from Philadelphia to Arizona, Regina found herself in the heart of a healing community, where a friend introduced her to breathwork. This encounter was transformative, offering Regina clarity and a renewed sense of purpose.
Regina explains how breathwork and sound healing aren't just trends but powerful tools for deep personal and physical transformation. These practices can address stress, emotional blockages, and even physical pain. Regina highlights that breathwork can lead to profound shifts, from reducing anxiety to improving physical health.
We also chatted about why many people resist simple practices like breathing exercises. She suggests that our resistance often stems from a deep-seated belief that effective solutions must be complex or require substantial effort. Simple practices like mindful breathing can offer remarkable benefits if incorporated regularly.
Throughout the episode, Regina shares insights on what to expect during a breathwork session, including the potential for experiencing intense sensations and emotions as stored energy is released. She emphasizes the importance of finding a knowledgeable and trauma-informed practitioner to guide you through the process safely.
Join us as Regina Lawrence reveals how breathwork and sound healing can offer a pathway to deeper self-discovery, healing, and overall well-being.
Whether you're new to these practices or seeking to deepen your understanding, this episode is sure to inspire and inform.
