Can changing the way you breathe help you release stored emotions, regulate your nervous system and experience less pain?
Breathing is something we do automatically, yet intentional breathwork may influence our physical, mental and emotional state in powerful ways.
In this episode of Beyond The Pain, Leigh speaks with breathwork instructor Jon Paul Crimi about his unexpected introduction to breathwork, the profound experience that changed the direction of his life and why he now describes the practice as an “emotional gym”.
Jon Paul explains that breathwork is an umbrella term covering many different techniques—from calming practices such as box breathing to more intense forms of conscious connected breathing. He also discusses how different techniques affect the nervous system and may help people access emotions and past experiences that have remained beneath their conscious awareness.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
• How Jon Paul went from sceptic to breathwork instructor
• What happened during his first transformative session
• The differences between common breathwork techniques
• How breathing can influence the nervous system
• Why unresolved emotions may contribute to physical tension and pain
• How breathwork may help people safely access and process stored emotions
• Why Jon Paul describes breathwork as an emotional gym
• How regular practice may build emotional resilience
• Simple ways to begin exploring conscious breathing
This conversation does not suggest that all chronic pain is emotional. Pain is influenced by many interconnected physical, biochemical, neurological and emotional factors. However, for some people, breathwork may provide another valuable way to calm the nervous system, explore unresolved emotions and create a greater sense of safety within the body.
If you are living with chronic or persistent pain—or feel that stress, anxiety or unresolved emotions may be affecting your health—this episode offers a fascinating introduction to the potential of conscious breathing.
