"The Breathing Pattern" with Danny Fang

My guest on the podcast this week is Danny Fang, a certified Breathing Mastery coach, Somatic Therapist, a Freediving instructor and a student at the University of Hong Kong studying Buddhism. Danny’s life purpose is to pass on his knowledge through therapeutic breathwork and coaching. He believes breathing and awareness are the most powerful combination to transform one’s life.

 In the podcast Danny shares his journey to Hong Kong. With good design skills he won design awards however he suffered with depression, long term depression, PTSD and double depression. He tried psychedelic therapy and saw many different therapists. He practiced “Free Diving” and he tells the story of his “mini awakening”. He thought that he should do something in with breathwork he met Dan Brule on line and flew to Mexico to study “Rebirthing Breathwork” a year-long study. From this and other trainings he has developed his coaching practice. 

 Danny shares a story in the podcast of a successful business woman who realized her career was not her path. Following coaching from Danny she connected back to her heart, she returned home and underwent a successful IVF program and had a child. “I am about waking people up” says Dani and one breath I teach to everyone is the “sigh” – it’s the homecoming breath, it can create a space between thoughts, a most healthy breath.
