What if integrating just 5 minutes of breathwork a day could help your clients manage pain, reduce inflammation, boost performance, and regulate their nervous system?
Well it can, and here’s why you should be using it…
Breathwork facilitator and neuroscience nerd Ber breaks down the practical, grounded science behind breathwork, so you can use it with clients (or yourself) to clear resistance and finally move forward.
What We Cover
➡️ How Berenice went from skeptical non-spiritualist to full-blown breathwork expert
➡️ The physiological link between breath and pain, performance, and consistency
➡️ Two breathwork styles: the slow parasympathetic kind and the stress-purging kind
➡️ What most people get wrong about “being in their head” (and how breath resets this)
➡️ How to coach clients out of procrastination and into self-belief—without mindset coaching
What You’ll Learn
✅ How to know when breathwork is the missing link in a client’s results
✅ Exactly how long and how often to do breathwork for real change
✅ Why deep exhalation beats deep inspiration for nervous system regulation
✅ The performance benefits of hypoxic breath training
✅ A practical, anti-woo-woo way to use breath to move through resistance
The Science on Cortisol (from Ber, added in post-episode)
When people constantly release cortisol, it suppresses immune function—creating long-term health consequences.
But in short bursts, cortisol actually helps.
These temporary spikes mobilise energy stores and reduce inflammation, which can help the body return to homeostasis instead of staying in a state of chronic stress and dysfunction.
So no, cortisol isn’t “bad.” It just needs to be regulated like everything else.
