Can Breathwork Really Clear Trauma? Jon Paul Crimi on Circular Connected Breathing

If breathwork sounds like a lot of work to you, we’re in the same boat. I have tried it a couple of times, once in a room filled with others seeking transformation of some kind, once in a small room with five “regulars” at this particular studio. Neither time did I feel I was going it “right.” Is there a right way?

I asked JP if my resistance was just a matter of “this isn’t for everyone.” His answer surprised me.

According to JP, you've been breathing your whole life, you're probably doing it wrong — and it's costing you more than you think. Breathwork pioneer Jon Paul Crimi joins the show to explain why shallow breathing is emotional avoidance, how 30 minutes of circular connected breathing can clear what years of therapy haven't, and why the results are immediate and undeniable.
