People breathe in different ways, just as they walk differently. Many of us breathe in an unhealthy way. Every breath you take either benefits your health or compounds health issues. Unreleased tension and anger lead to physical pain. Effective breathwork releases old emotions and tension. Chest and belly breathers live their lives very differently. When you breathe with ease and grace you can live life with ease and grace. Most of the time breathing through your nose is best, but for sometimes you will have to breathe through your mouth. Breathworks is a legal way to experience the effects psychedelic drugs have. BEST MOMENTS: “Every breath we take is reinforcing habits of physical, emotional and spiritual health.” “Physical pain is often emotional in nature.” “How we breathe is how we live.” VALUABLE RESOURCES: www.breathflow.com https://www.instagram.com/r_christian__minson__breathes https://www.facebook.com/r.christian.minson https://www.linkedin.com/in/rchristianminson https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcw63-EeoPrQjwgQEdouM3A https://breathmarket.samcart.com/products/facilitation-seminar-level-1 GUEST BIO: Christian Minson, of Breathflow Wellness International, has been a coach, facilitator and trainer actively studying and applying the power of breathwork for the last 27 years, including 10 years as a meditating monk.

Breath is the foundation of life, the doorway to multidimensionality, and how you breath determines how you feel on this human journey. Betrayal leads to a loss of trust, a loss of control, and a loss of flow. Breathwork is a tool that can help you regulate and calm your nervous system, relax and accept the present moment, and feel better fast. The choice is yours: You can either stumble through the forest or can find a path that will lead you through more easily. Let Breathwork be that path! Top take-a-ways: Understanding why all emotions have value and how to learn to trust your breath so you can relax and recover after infidelity or other emotional trauma. Why every breath you take is either reinforcing negative emotional experiences or creating positive ones, and how to consciously repattern your life experience using breath. How to move through and process the emotional backlog of bitterness, pain, and resentment post-betrayal. The truth of Freud's saying, “Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways.” and the necessity of releasing the cellular memory of trauma if you want to heal. The secret reason we hold our breath, and how breath-holding is a suspension of life, a momentary death, where you don't want to move forward and face what's next. Remember, whatever posture you meet life with, is how life will meet you! And as Michael Blair says, “It's not about feeling better, it's about getting better at feeling.” But once you do, you will feel better! What kind of life do you want to create? R.

After years searching for deeper meaning of life in the Monastery, Christian now teaches and guides others to find meaning in their own personal and professional lives by delivering inspiration and practical real-world tools that result in higher levels of vibration, creation, alignment, fulfillment and performance.

This guy! I've known Christian for years, as a colleague and a friend and it was so nice catching up with him on today's episode! It was navigating the transition from living 10 years as a monk back into the "real world" that Christian began exploring breathwork as a means of integration and has devoted 15 years to his work as breathwork guide, facilitator, and student. In today's conversation we talk about his personal journey and the importance of taking responsibility for our lives in these very divisive and complicated times. We talk about the loss of connection with Spirit as the root of so many issues these days, and how to reconnect. He shares about his "theory of everything" and also shares many insights and inspiration form his time in the Monastary too! You can learn more about Christian's offerings and his online course on his website here. You can also connect with him on Facebook, Instagram, and Youtube. Episode Webpage. About R.

"Plant medicine and breath were the mandate to bring Rythmia into existence." Welcome to NION Radio! Today's episode is another part of my series on plant medicine and the wonderful people I've met through my journey with it. Our guest today is Christian Minson, the Director of Breathwork at Rythmia. The time he has spent with breathwork has made him an expert in the field and an invaluable asset at Rythmia, elevating people to higher states and aiding the work of the plant medicine through the breath. Since starting his work as a monk in the hills of West Los Angeles, Christian has always been looking for a higher purpose and an elevated state of consciousness. Soon after leaving his lifestyle as a monk, he started going deeply into breathwork and learned how much it can help you heal, and the simple but profound power of it moved him. Christian's work at Rythmia is a culmination of his years of practice and research, and through his work, he has impacted and accelerated the learning of every participant he has worked with there. Listen in to learn what breathwork is, how it is working with the brain and your consciousness, and how you can use it to elevate your creativity.

When you merge with plant medicine, you are making a soul contract. This is a deep level of transformation that returns you to your true essence, which has always been love. - Candice Marie-Fox Breathwork and plant medicine are tools that open the doors to higher consciousness. The difference is that breathwork opens the door gently and invites you in, while plant medicine opens the door, pulls you in, and won’t let go until it chooses. – Christian Minson   ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well.

Power Quotes From The Show "Plant medicine and breathwork are the top two methods that we use at Rythmia. The plant medicine is inherently the earth's way to usher in transformation and a new level of consciousness." - Christian Minson "Taking plant medicine is truly a soul contract. You are changing the neurological pathways in your brain. Yes, you can do that on a certain level by detoxing or attending motivational seminars and receive the essence of it but plant medicine is the deepest level of transformation and it sticks because you are rewiring your brain and making a soul contract. There is nothing else in the world that I have experienced, seen, or heard of that can do that." - Candice Marie-Fox "People have a concept of who they are in a labeled box. So, when they come to Rythmia and that box gets blow open and they finally have an awakening and see that they're so much more than that box they've put themselves in. The mastery is then going home and applying that awakening. However, once they go home, the real work starts as they have to apply that awakening to their thoughts, actions, and lifestyles in order to maintain and grow this realized awakening of who they are." - Christian Minson "Not every thought that comes into your head is necessarily yours. They could be guidance, intuition, or awareness for you to take the next step in your life." - Candice Marie-Fox "If you're dissatisfied with something in your life, it's because you're either thinking in the future or dwelling in the past. Breathwork will bring you back to the present because the only place where you can breathe is the present." - Christian Minson "We're all trying to get to a higher state of consciousness and getting involved in other people's energy will just lower our vibration. Don't take life too seriously; none of us get out of this alive and this is not the end. Our true home is that energy in heaven and it's so beautiful beyond belief. Sometimes we just get lost but once you drink the plant medicine, you're reminded to just be present, be a good person, and act from love. Literally let your thoughts, speech, and actions be in true alignment and the universe will act in your favor." - Candice Marie-Fox "Fear is the compass needle pointing north. Whatever you're the most afraid of, go in that direction. It's an uncomfortable sensation but it'll become easier to face that discomfort once you see the results.

At this point in my Rythmia journey, I’ve already received a tremendous gift – I found my true purpose – but we’re still not done yet. Because we have two more incredible healers to meet in this episode: R. Christian Minson, the resident Director of the Breathwork Program at Rythmia Life Advancement Center, and Dr. Jeff McNairy, the Chief Medical Officer at Rythmia. Christian practices Transformational Breath, a practice that harnesses the power of your own innate healing capacity through cutting edge breathing techniques that access deeper amounts of life force energy, helping you to connect with yourself emotionally, physically, and spiritually. With Christian as your guide, the breathing brings you on insightful journeys that open you up to life changing events and shifts in consciousness. ​The results are meditative states of deep peace, energized enthusiasm for life, and an opening to the mystical realms of consciousness. It’s hard to believe that something so transformational can come from breath until you experience it, but it’s impossible to forget once you do. Christian was originally called to be a healer because he experienced the power of breathwork first hand – and if you listened to part one of my Rythmia journey, you can probably tell that this is a common theme here at Rythmia; the healed become the healers. And this is, at its essence, what Rythmia offers visitors: the opportunity to discover the light worker or light warrior essence within. Because when your light shines a bit brighter, you’re able to go out in the world and be of greater service. But this probably wouldn’t be possible or safe if it weren’t for Jeff McNairy, who has been working in the healthcare field for 25 years. He’s seen, over and over again, people struggling to heal because the current Western system of healthcare is simply deficient. It is more concerned with managing symptoms and prescribing “medicine” than healing. However, through working with some of the most intense patient populations – including those who struggle with addiction and trauma, like Rythmia co-founder Gerard Powell – he has seen that the only real healing can come from within; you have to find the root cause of your unhappiness, health concern, and discontent, then resolve it. And in working with Gerry and everyone else who has visited Rythmia since it opened, Jeff has seen that one plant medicine session conducted in a safe, clinically appropriate environment can be as effective as 10 years of psychotherapy. Like breathwork, it’s hard to believe that plant medicines can be so transformational – and then you experience it under the right conditions. It’s ancient modalities meeting modern psychology, all in the jungles of Costa Rica, and I invite you to come join me for the rest of this wild, profound, and emotional ride.   Topics Discussed With Christian: What breathwork is & how it can help you in ways that yoga can’t Why Christian became a monk for a decade (and then made the transition back to being a worldly person) How the healers at Rythmia help visitors find the light warrior essence within them What separates Transformational Breath from the hundreds of other breathwork practices out there Rebirthing through breath Plant medicine and breathwork both open up the door to consciousness – but breathwork opens the door and gently beckons you in while plant medicine grabs you and shoves you through the doorway The benefits of integrating a natural habitat into your spiritual experiences How breathwork works with plant medicine to evolve your experience & help you claim it as your own   Topics Discussed With Jeff: How the staff at Rythmia ensures that the plant medicine experience is safe for everyone involved A lot of what we call mental illness is just people in pain without any way to process that pain Using a drug to get off drugs (AKA why plant medicine is so effective for treating addiction) How it it possible that I had a psychedelic experience and, now, feel even more committed to being sober? (Trust me, that would never happen after a bump of coke...) When Jeff first met Gerry, who was then a very different person than the person you met in the last episode, and their transformational entré into the world of plant medicines The difference between iboga and ayahuasca, experientially and physically A common thread of trauma that has rippled throughout my life, especially my romantic life How the plant medicine helps you work through your own trauma and start the healing process We can’t connect with other people until we get connected with ourselves Why Rythmia accepts people who are shunned or devalued in many Western medical facilities due to their particular mental illness What science is starting to learn about the pineal gland & DMT How a dog helped me find God The three intentions that will help you find everything you’re looking for at Rhythmia   More about this episode.

Most of us don't breathe correctly and actually many of us breathe at just 20% of our capacity. Oxygen is our number one energy source and it's what drives every cell. If we're not filling our bodies with the maximum amount of oxygen that it can use, then we're basically only giving our bodies enough oxygen to simply get by in the day. That's why people are chronically fatigued or feel like life is such a chore. They find everything so hard to do because we're leaving 80% of the potential energy that we could be running our lives with on the table. - Christian Minson JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST  20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE When was the last time you truly focused on your breath?   On Wellness Force Radio 187, International Speaker, Best-Selling Contributing Author, Trainer, Coach, Founder of Breathflow Wellness, and Leader of the Breathwork Program at the Rythmia, Christian Minson, shares what you'll experience once you focus on proper transformational breathwork, how breathing will help you with your biggest stress triggers, and why the relationship you have with yourself is more important than any other.

How breathwork can help you make a difficult decision and discover the relative truth to your authentic self. Power Quotes From The Show "The whole purpose of life is our own evolution and self-realization. The way to get there is by developing a direct relationship to our spirit and the way to do that is through techniques of meditation such as breath manipulation." - @BreathFlow http://bit.ly/wfpodcast "Breathing keeps us alive and that's a pretty fundamental reason for us to breathe. I think it's such an important reason to breathe, but that's where people stop and go, 'Okay, breath equals life. Breath is what keeps us alive so that's the purpose of our breathing.' But then we discount the idea that there's the possibility for any more reason other than that. However, if you really start working with the breath and working with oxygenating the body and actually bringing more lifeforce into your being, it's not only sustaining your life, but it elevates and evolves your life too." - Christian Minson "As monks, we were doing modified forms of breathing without really focusing on the breath. So one of the liabilities of that lifestyle was that we kind of discounted our physical being in pursuit of our spiritual dimension. What I love about breathwork is that not only does it reinforce that we are spiritual beings, but that we are actually physical beings too. Therefore, breath and movement work together in harmony. As spiritual beings having a physical experience, there's a route back to our spirit, but there has to be a physical gateway into that and that is the breath." - Christian Minson "Despite the fact that breath is a foundational tool to our whole evolution, still very few people actually know about it. So, people come to Rythmia primarily for the plant medicine and to have this experience. More people know or understand plant medicine much more than they know about breath. So to hold plant medicine and breath in such equal esteem and have people experience both, our guests get to experience and learn about the benefits of breathwork firsthand." - Christian Minson "Both breathwork and plant medicine are tools that open the doors of our consciousness. The difference is that the breath opens that door gently and invites you in. The plant medicine opens that door and pulls you in and won't let you out till it wants you out." - Christian Minson Links From Today's Show   Rythmia Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Christian Minson Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube LinkedIn Breathflow Wellness The Reality of Truth The 5 Habits of Highly Spiritual People Developing Your Intuition to Improve Your Life and Decision Making John Gray Good genes are nice, but joy is better Be Here Now by Ram Dass Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda Use Breathwork Techniques to Boost Your Mental State Breathwork for Clearing Trauma from the Body Breathwork - GoodTherapy.org WFR 137 Dr. Tim Brown WFR 149 Johnny Blackburn [spacer height="20px" id="2"] About Christian Minson Christian Minson is an International Speaker, Best-Selling Contributing Author, Trainer, Coach, and Founder of Breathflow Wellness, a transformational holistic health business. ​ A former Monk for 10 years, now he helps others achieve greater spiritual and emotional intelligence by integrating trauma, releasing limiting habits, managing emotions, and teaching others to find meaning in their own lives and work.

Aingeal Rose & Ahonu interview Christian Minson on his transformational breath business called BreathFlow. Why do you do what you do? At early age there was a spark inside me that there had to be more to life than what I was currently experiencing.Seeking deeper meaning consumed my focus, so I became a monk as a result. I focused on expanding consciousness in meditation. I realized that life is a special path, whether we know it or not. It is the evolution of consciousness. It is the true purpose of life. I believe that life is two forces, one that takes us apart, one that brings us together. After years of meditation, I was introduced to breathwork. Breathwork is a powerful tool for bringing together. It has the same effect as meditation, but accelerated and not as tough. The common element to meditation is the focus on breath. It took me down deep quickly. It is also accessible to more people without any religious overlay or dogma. It is a tool that helped me and it can help others, everyone in fact. I couldn't help but want to share it. You have an interesting background could you reveal a little for us? I am a military brat. I have a cosmopolitan attitude and a love of travel. I was a graphic designer for the sex toy industry but I was very discontent and unhappy, so I became a monk. After that I became an international breathworker and I now teach in Mexico, Cananda, all over the USA, in Moscow, Berlin and Bulgaria. Where did you learn your skills as a breathworker? Judith Kravitz is my mentor. She has the largest breath school on the planet. I learned in 2006 and since then I spent over 1000 hours working with her personally as her right hand man, in her semainrs as well as leading my own workshops as a senior trainer. My own Journey with breathwork and challenges commonly faced. Common challenges that were mine too: Feeling disconnected, desiring deep connection with spirit, facing huge crossroads decision, needing clarity, managing anxiety under extreme circumstances. What is your philosophy behind breathwork? It is an holistic approach to life. We are endowed with all the tools we need to thrive in this life, and breath is a tool/instrument and a map.  It is a map for assessment of our state. Life is a flow. Holding on dams that flow, while breathwork breaks the dam. As a tool: We are spiritual beings having a human experience. Our goal is evolution back to our spirit nature. There is an interface between physical and spiritual. A portal. That is the breath. As spiritual teacher P. Yogananda stated "Breath is the cord that ties the soul to the flesh." How do YOU facilitate a breath session, differently than others? Part coaching, part breath experience. Inherently spiritual bent. Tune in with needs of individual, focus directly on that. Read the breath. Grounded sense, hold down while storms of emotions pass, energetic exchange at end with feet. Come back, share the experience and what I saw in breath. What is so important about the breath? Eastern sages and mystics have known and used the power of the breath for centuries. It is the cord that ties the soul to flesh. Do we really need to learn how to breathe? We all walk but sometimes it needs correction. In the same way, 90% of us have some issues with our breathing. What is Transformational Breath® (TB)? It is a powerful, safe self-healing technique… physical, emotional, spiritual benefits. What makes TB better than other modalities out there for healing and personal growth? Mainly the time and efficacy. Takes much less time to reap greater results. Compare with psychotherapy, compare with meditation, used in conjunction with physical exercise will maximize your abilities and extend your breaking point. What have the results been for your clients? Relief from chronic pains, emotional issues, improved relationships, greater spiritual connection with less fear, improvement of finances. What can one expect from a TB session? Safety and trust. Opening like you have never experienced before. It is the quintessential experience. You become buddies for life - and it blows the lid off transformation.           Is there any scientific basis for the healing power of the breath? More and more it is emerging. Two devices are currently on the market for breathing to help lower blood pressure and reducing stress. Hyperbaric chambers, ozone therapy. Why have a device when TB can do the same thing? I have a device which helps athletes, asthmatics, and others exercise their respiratory muscles to maximize their breathing capacity. What different type of people is this good for? As emotional therapy: Children, people suffering from addictions of any sort, stressed out, chronic physical pains, chronic emotional conditions, especially anxiety, anyone feeling disconnected or lackluster about life, asthmatics. As technique for accession potential: Physical: Athletes wanting to improve their performance, Spiritual: people who want to experience a deeper connection with the source of their being. Success driven: people who just want to such the marrow out of life and have the most exciting and intense experiences that life has to offer. Who have you facilitated in TB? Rehab patients, children, athletes, business men under lots of stress and anxiety, mothers, people with lots of emotional baggage, cancer patients What services do you offer? Individual and group breath sessions, in person or remote, spirit-based action coaching, holistic wellness coaching with biz partner Dr. Olga Goldina, products that support the breathing process.
