Breathwork basics
What if we could harness something that we have to do stay alive, to help us live more fully and more productively?
Learning to breathe consciously is a quick way to feel calmer and less stressed, reducing the risk of burnout.
My breathwork sessions teach simple practical breath techniques in a down-to-earth way. They help develop greater awareness of habitual breath patterns, and ways to adjust the breathing pattern to effectively manage the emotions in difficult situations - invaluable in consciously choosing how to respond, rather than simply reacting in the moment to what is immediately in front of us.

Learned to manage her panic attacks

Found a way to process her grief
"I could not have asked for a better coach than Allison. I am deeply grateful for her dedication, patience and kindness in helping me face grief and trauma.
