Interview with The Crystal Boutique
The Crystal Boutique interviewed me for their special Heal Series and I wanted to share a smidge of it with you!
Here's a little about Sara and her Breathwork approach so you know who you're learning from...
Sara Silverstein is an International Breathwork Guide that fled the hectic corporate world in New York City to expand her horizons to find a more fulfilling life in the wellness world. Her approach is scientific based with spirituality sprinkled on top so her take on the healing community is a breath of fresh air for those who aren't hippie-woo-woo.
So Sara....what actually IS Breathwork?
Breathwork is an active form of meditation that is designed to regulate your nervous system. By utilizing your lung capacity properly, you have the ability to destress and feel more centered so you can tackle everything that life throws you.
Is Breathwork something only super hippie or spiritual people do?
Hell no! I do not identify as a hippie or a highly spiritual person. I am an ex-New Yorker who has fallen in love with this breathing method because my decade in NYC caused me to constantly live in a state of low level panic. I suffered from anxiety attacks regularly, I was overworked and beyond stressed at my job, my commute was garbage and my home life was struggling. Someone suggested Breathwork to me when I was in the height of burnout and after some resistance - I gave in. I am so grateful I did because it shifted my entire life.
We are all born with the ability to breathe properly but as we go on throughout our lives we begin to breathe with our high chest thus stressing our entire body out. We don't give ourselves the ability to relax because we aren't cognizant of how poor breathing negatively impacts us immediately. I did one Breathwork session and felt the immense benefits from it immediately. From that moment on, I knew I needed to understand that I was in control of my body and it set me out on a scientific path to understand how to regulate my nervous system.
So Breathwork is for everyone who desires to live a happier and more fulfilled life.
