EP266: Rewire Your Nervous System, One Breath at a Time

True Stride

Play Episode Listen Later Oct 30, 2025 16:12


Sometimes the smallest things create the biggest shift. Lately, I've been reminded how something as simple as breathing, something we do automatically, can completely change how we feel. It's easy to forget that breath is both instinct and invitation. When I guide a yoga class or begin a shamanic reiki session, I always start with three unifying breaths. Each one feels like a soft landing, a way to come home to myself before I do anything else. It's a quiet reminder that calm isn't something we chase; it's something we breathe into being. Let's take a moment to breathe together now: The first breath will be a nourishing breath. Inhale deeply, exhale, let it out. The second breath will be a cleansing breath. Inhale deeply, exhale, let it out. And the last breath will be a rejuvenating breath. Inhale deeply, exhale, let it out. Then, just settle back into the natural rhythm of your own breath. On this Wise Walk, we'll look at how intentional breathing can nourish and even rewire your nervous system. We'll pause long enough to notice when we hold our breath, especially in those moments when life feels a bit too fast or too heavy. And we'll experiment with simple ways to release that tension, like box breathing or the 4-7-8 rhythm, so the body can find its own natural balance again. So as you walk, breathe, and listen, see if you can feel how each inhale steadies you and each exhale clears space for a calmer, more connected you. Do you notice the natural rhythm of your breath, or do you sometimes catch yourself holding it without realizing? When stress or anticipation builds, can you sense the moment your breath becomes shallow or tight? How does it feel when you pause and guide your breath back to a slower, steadier rhythm? Can you sense the shifts in your body as your breath begins to calm your nervous system? What practices help you stay connected to your breath when life feels fast or heavy? When you feel tension rise, how can you use your breath to bring yourself back to balance? How can you create time and space in your day to practice deep, intentional breathing that nourishes and restores you? As you move through the rest of your day, notice the moments when you can come back to your breath. Let it steady you. Let it clear space for calm, connection, and whatever comes next. I hope this Wise Walk reminded you that your breath is both your anchor and your reset button. Until next Thursday, keep tuning in, breathing deeply, and honoring the rhythm that keeps you aligned with your heart and your True Stride. In this episode: [04:40] There have been times in my life where I certainly catch myself holding my breath. [05:37] What I love about the three unifying breaths is that three deep breaths resets the nervous system. [06:12] There is scientific backing that supports this. Deep breathing will rewire our nervous systems. [07:21] I also catch myself holding my breath during a deep tissue massage. Breathwork can help us breathe through stress and cleanse. [08:25] The box breath is on counts of four. You inhale for a count of four. Then you hold for a count of four. Exhale for a count of four. Hold for a count of four. Repeat. [09:18] Being intentional about rewiring our nervous system is a great skill for all of us to have. [10:34] Box breathing is a beautiful rhythmic structure that gives us focus. [11:59] Breath work is always a focus like when we exercise. [12:41] You could also try the 4-7-8 practice. Inhale for four breaths. Hold for seven. Exhale for eight. [15:20] Scan your body to see how these practices help you. Memorable Quotes: "Every time we take three deep breaths, we give our nervous system a chance to reset." - Mary Tess "When we hold our breath, we hold tension. When we breathe deeply, we create space for ease." - Mary Tess "Breathwork is a bridge between the body and the mind. It reconnects what stress tries to separate." - Mary Tess Links and Resources: Mary Tess Rooney Email Heart Value Facebook | LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram

Send Us a Message!What if six simple breaths could flip your system from scattered to centered and prime your body for real energetic change? Christine Renee explores how intentional breathing supports Shamanic Reiki—from using the exhale to help clients release stagnant energy to a full microcosmic orbit practice that “power washes” your chakras with focus and care. She then maps the microcosmic orbit: inhale up the back, exhale down the front, visualize a Reiki energy ball tracing the loop, and add gentle locks at the palate and root to concentrate flow. Layer in earth energy from below and source from above, and the circuit becomes a steady river rather than a trickle. Then bring in Tantra's three keys—breath, movement, and sound—to soften rigid form into living practice. Undulate the spine to recruit the fascia, voice the exhale to free the throat, and let intention lead. Whether you're working solo, with a client, or with a partner, this approach meets you where you are and moves what's ready to move.In this episode, we explore:• Six-breath centering for release and tuning• Matching breath with clients to invite participation• Throat center as primary exit pathway• Case study of hip pain and emotional release• Microcosmic orbit explained with energy ball focus• Adding movement and sound to deepen flow• Transitioning from structured form to fluid tantra• Masterclass details and free webinar invitationReady to take it deeper?

As I explore the significance of breath, I highlight it as a fundamental, yet often overlooked, tool for achieving a state of tranquility and balance within our bodies and minds. Drawing inspiration from James Nestor's enlightening book, "Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art," I emphasize how the way we breathe can dramatically influence our overall well-being.Throughout the discussion, I unpack the automatic nature of breathing and how our typical patterns can betray us, especially in moments of anxiety. When we are overwhelmed, it's common for our breathing to become shallow and rapid, sending distress signals to our brain and maintaining a state of hyperarousal. I reflect on my own journey of discovering the benefits of long, slow exhalations and conscious breathing, which not only transformed my personal anxiety management but also allowed me to assist others in making similar changes.I stress the importance of breathing through the nose, as highlighted by Nestor, reclaiming what he describes as the "lost art of breathing." I detail the physiological benefits of proper nasal breathing — it calms the nervous system and activates the parasympathetic response, ensuring that our bodies can transition to rest and digest mode. Practical exercises are woven throughout the episode, allowing listeners to engage with their breath in real time, guiding them away from stress and towards a newfound sense of safety.#AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #Breathwork, #AnxietyRelief, #NervousSystem, #MindBody, #JamesNestor, #BreathTheNewScienceOfALostArt, #NasalBreathing, #SlowBreathing, #Calm #Mindfulness, #RelaxationTechniques, #VagusNerve, #SelfCompassion, #HealthAndWellness, #StressManagement, #ConsciousBreathing, #RestAndDigest, #AnxietySucks, #BreathingExercises, #ReduceStress, #PodcastLife, #DailyPractice, #InhaleExhale, #InnerPeace, #EmotionalHealth, #MentalWellness, #NaturalCalm, #ResetButton #GinaRyan #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Key Takeaways Breathwork is simpler and more accessible than most people think. Conscious awareness of the breath deepens emotional regulation and clarity. Every breath is an opportunity to reconnect body, mind, and spirit. Integrating breathwork with fitness, prayer, or meditation multiplies results. Daily breath rituals improve sleep, recovery, and resilience under pressure. High performers use breath control to stay calm, focused, and intentional. Awareness of breath opens deeper heart connection and body intelligence. The science of breathing reveals how it impacts energy, hormones, and sleep. Living a "superhuman life" means using your breath to fuel passion, growth, and impact. Featured Guest Dan Brulé is a world-renowned expert in the art and science of breathwork. A former U.S. Navy diver and author of the international bestseller Just Breathe, Dan has trained more than 250,000 people in over 60 countries, including elite military units, Olympic athletes, and top executives.

Chronic stress and burnout are epidemic among entrepreneurs and high-achievers. In 2025, prioritizing nervous system regulation isn't just wellness - it's essential for sustainable business success and mental health. After experiencing the physical toll of chronic stress and high cortisol, I'm sharing my journey to healing and the practical steps that are transforming my health. I've made it my mission to regulate my nervous system. I want to feel better. I took the first step in this mission by scheduling an appointment with a naturopathic doctor. She did a deep dive into my bloodwork and, sure enough, red flags were everywhere. She asked me if I felt tired. My answer was yes, but I still continue to get everything done. Even thinking that makes me sad. It meant that I would make sure all the work and everyone else was taken care of before myself. I've operated like that for so long that it's going to take more than just a couple of months of intention to change. But that's okay, I'm committed to it. In this episode, I'm sharing my current journey to a regulated nervous system, why our nervous systems matter and some of the habits I've built to become more regulated. If you struggle with excess stress, high cortisol and unwanted anxiety, I hope my story encourages you to regulate your nervous system as well!   Nervous system regulation techniques you'll learn: Warning signs of chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation Why entrepreneurs are at higher risk for burnout and anxiety Practical breathing exercises for immediate stress relief How nature therapy reduces cortisol and improves mood Building sustainable self-care habits for long-term health The connection between physical health and business performance   High-achieving women and entrepreneurs often sacrifice their health for productivity. This episode bridges the gap between wellness and business success, showing how nervous system regulation actually enhances performance while preventing burnout. If you're tired but keep pushing through, prioritize everyone else before yourself, or feel like you're running on empty - this episode is your permission slip to prioritize your nervous system.   Here's a glance at this episode: [02:00] Health Wake-Up Call: Raya shares that things got so bad with her health that she ended up seeking out help from multiple professionals. [05:12] The Body's Warning System: If we do not take it upon ourselves to proactively regulate our nervous systems, our bodies will take over and force us. [05:52] Nervous System Basics: Your nervous system is the “command center” of your body. It does a lot to regulate your organs and emotions. [12:50] Breathwork for Stress Relief: Breathing exercises can be a great way to regulate the nervous system. Raya shares a few different examples of exercises to take on. [15:45] Nature Therapy Benefits: Raya has made it a point to always start her day in nature. It's a great way to elevate her mood and reduce stress.   Rate, Review, & Follow: Did you love this episode? Are you a fan of the City Girl Savings podcast?

If you're on Instagram, you may have come across Brian's work before. His grounded, relatable approach helps people deepen their relationship with themselves and others. He's developed a system called SIBS—Somatic Work, Inner Child Work, Breathwork, and Support—which has guided his clients through what might be the most challenging spiritual path there is: the yoga of relationships.While we don't use that term on the show, it kept coming to mind as I re-listened to Brian's story and insights. In traditional yoga, we unite body, breath, and mind to return to the Self. In the yoga of relationships, we do the same—but with other humans. Our partners become mirrors, and pretty much every emotion becomes an invitation to see where we're still attached, defended, or separate from love. In this way, our partners, friends, and family become our greatest teachers—not because they're perfect, but because they reveal the parts of us that are not yet free.It's confronting, profound work, and it's the path Brian has committed himself to and has helped countless others within. Highlights from this episode: - His transformative initiation with Iboga and the Bwiti tradition, and how working with plant medicine refined his understanding of healing- The breakup that became a breakthrough — how his wife, Hope, leaving deepened their love, marriage, and spiritual growth- Simple, powerful tools to regulate your nervous system and support the vagus nerve when conflict or triggers arise - A mysterious recurring illness that finally shifted when Brian faced his buried shame and let go of his “hero” complex within his coaching businessConnect with Brian: https://awakeningwithbrian.com/ https://www.instagram.com/awakeningwithbrian/ Related Episodes: Whispers of Letting Go of Who You Thought You Were with Hope YangWhispers of Owning Your Light (Language) with Hope YangWhispers of Breakups, Heartache, and the Greatest Love Story of All TimeWhispers of Gabon and My Initiation with the BwitiIf you'd like to connect with Stephanie, you can find her here:Instagram-@schoolofwhispers @__steef___ email-schoolofwhispers@gmail.com DISCLAIMER: This podcast is presented for educational and exploratory purposes only.

Their novel, The Orchid: The Secret Code of Modern Goddesses, isn't just a beautiful narrative; it's a field guide woven into story, where five women mirror our realities survival, perfectionism, hidden truth, anger, and longing and offer tools to move from pain to possibility.We unpack why Orchid became their symbol: resilient, diverse, unmistakably feminine yet rooted in a surprising masculine etymology, embodying the balance our culture craves. Rocío speaks to trauma, nervous system safety, and the long road from external approval to inner harmony. Angel shares the ego's impulse to interrupt, the discipline of awareness, and the power of choosing where attention goes in a noisy world. Together they model respectful communication, mindful pauses, and a love that holds space for growth without codependency.Expect practical takeaways: an accessible forgiveness framework, a two-minute mindful reset that actually works, mirror work to rebuild worth, and gratitude practices that shift focus from lack to sufficiency. We also explore how to navigate hard headlines without bypassing pain redirecting energy toward peace and intention while honoring reality.The heartbeat is simple and brave: when you love yourself deeply and completely, you stop living at the mercy of externals and become the force in your own life.

In this insightful podcast episode, I chat with Dr. Shahrzad Jalai, an accomplished clinical psychologist with a rich background in linguistics and a deep interest in holistic therapy approaches. Our conversation traverses her personal and professional journey, offering profound insights into the nuances of trauma, innovative therapy techniques, and the fascinating convergence of the body and the psyche. What You'll Learn: Integration of Linguistics in Psychology: Discover how Dr. Jalai transitioned from linguistics to psychology and how her background enriches her clinical practice. Understanding Soul Searching: Hear Dr. Jalai's personal story of transformation through therapy and her eventual foray into psychology. Current Trends in Psychological Health: Insights into the growing trend of emotional dysregulation and the quest for safety among clients. Psyche-Body Connection: Explore the role of the nervous system in mental health and Dr. Jalai's holistic approach to therapy. Jungian Psychology & Dreams: Learn about Jung's philosophies, the interplay of dreams and the unconscious, and how they shape therapeutic strategies. Psychoanalytic vs. Cognitive Therapies: A clear distinction between the objective, structured cognitive approaches and the depth-oriented psychoanalytic therapies. Spotlight on Complexes: Uncover the understated influence of complexes from childhood on our adult life, and the therapeutic exploration of these hidden forces. Somatic Approaches to Trauma: Dive into the methodologies like EMDR and Brainspotting used to integrate physiological responses in treating psychological traumas. Key Takeaways: Trauma is not only processed through the mind but is deeply stored within the body, necessitating a holistic treatment approach. Therapies focused on unity and compassion are vital in bridging human chaos and disconnect, offering pathways to greater personal and societal harmony. Exploring personal traumas and histories provides an opportunity not only for healing but also for uncovering the wisdom and strengths gained through adversity. Professionals must navigate transference carefully to maintain personal well-being and effective therapeutic outcomes. Acknowledging and addressing the interconnectedness of body and mind can significantly enhance the efficacy of psychological interventions.

Most people try to “heal” their brain with supplements, mindset, or meditation—but this episode reveals the deeper protocol to actually grow a new brain, reverse stress damage, activate 1,100 healing genes, and unlock higher human performance at any age. You'll learn how neuroplasticity, mitochondria repair, plant-based NRF2 activators, and energetic practices work together to rebuild the brain and extend longevity. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D.—medical anthropologist, neuroscientist, energy medicine pioneer, and founder of The Four Winds Society, the gold-standard school for modern shamans. He has spent 25+ years studying Amazonian and Andean healing traditions, led the Biological Self-Regulation Lab at San Francisco State University to explore psychosomatic medicine, and authored more than 25 bestselling books on neuroscience, functional medicine, and energy healing. Few people on earth bridge ancient biohacking and modern brain science at this level. He also reveals the forms of nicotine that are safest (spoiler: it's not vapes or cigarettes), how nicotine works at the receptor level, and what the science says about long-term health effects. This episode blends functional medicine, brain optimization, and biohacking into one powerful, myth-busting breakdown. You'll learn: • How to grow a new brain every 22 days using neuroplasticity and mitochondria support • Why plant medicines and NRF2 activators can turn on 1,100 healing genes in 24 hours • The surprising link between nootropics, psychedelics, serotonin, and endogenous DMT • How mindset, belief systems, and placebo/nocebo shape immune function and metabolism • Why RFK's chronic disease warning connects to viral evolution and immune collapse • The real reason carnivore diets work—and when they fail without gut repair • Peptides, GLP-1 agonists, and the future of functional medicine hacking • Why most people sabotage themselves and how to stop fighting your own biology This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, human performance, and longevity, and for those who want to understand how functional biology and mitochondrial science are redefining recovery, energy, and aging. Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind.
