I’m thrilled to host Regina Lawrence, an expert in breathwork and sound healing. Regina's journey from a high-powered attorney to a transformative wellness practitioner is as fascinating as it is inspiring.

Regina, once a successful trial lawyer and law professor, experienced a pivotal moment in her career when she faced a severe panic attack in her office. This life-altering event led her to question her path and ultimately left her seeking a deeper, more fulfilling way of life.

Moving from Philadelphia to Arizona, Regina found herself in the heart of a healing community, where a friend introduced her to breathwork. This encounter was transformative, offering Regina clarity and a renewed sense of purpose.

Regina explains how breathwork and sound healing aren't just trends but powerful tools for deep personal and physical transformation. These practices can address stress, emotional blockages, and even physical pain. Regina highlights that breathwork can lead to profound shifts, from reducing anxiety to improving physical health.

We also chatted about why many people resist simple practices like breathing exercises. She suggests that our resistance often stems from a deep-seated belief that effective solutions must be complex or require substantial effort. Simple practices like mindful breathing can offer remarkable benefits if incorporated regularly.

Throughout the episode, Regina shares insights on what to expect during a breathwork session, including the potential for experiencing intense sensations and emotions as stored energy is released. She emphasizes the importance of finding a knowledgeable and trauma-informed practitioner to guide you through the process safely.

Join us as Regina Lawrence reveals how breathwork and sound healing can offer a pathway to deeper self-discovery, healing, and overall well-being.

Whether you're new to these practices or seeking to deepen your understanding, this episode is sure to inspire and inform.

Have you ever wondered why Europeans are often considered healthier and live better lives? Well, I’m currently in Grindelwald, Switzerland, and I think I’ve cracked the code..

So, why are Europeans healthier?

It's all about stress management. They live less stressful lives and handle stress better. It's ingrained in their daily routines, culture, and even vacation habits.

For example, the food here is different. I’ve been eating bread without the usual brain fog and stomach issues. They don’t use the same food processing techniques as in the States, which makes a huge difference.

Yesterday, we took an amazing tour with a private guide, saw waterfalls, and just relaxed. It took me four days to truly unwind, which made me realize my routine back home needs a revamp. I wasn’t putting my well-being first, prioritizing work and emails over self-care.

Our guide mentioned that people here take three to six weeks off at a time, no big deal. In the States, that’s unheard of! Their daily routines prioritize relaxation: a big protein breakfast, a calm lunch, and a leisurely dinner.

No rush, just enjoying the moment.

So, my takeaway? We need to slow down and live more intentionally. Find that balance between working hard and truly relaxing. Call yourself out if you’re not making your well-being a priority.

Stress, pain, and injury are all connected, and managing stress is key to a healthier life.

Take a deep breath, relax, and live. You deserve it.

Hey, butthole breathers! I’ve been on the road with the show recently, and let me tell you, relaxing in a comfy robe and bed is where the magic happens. You know, stress is a sneaky culprit behind many illnesses. It’s well-known that stress contributes to pain and injuries, but did you know it can also make you sick?

When I felt a cold coming on, I did four things and woke up feeling almost normal. I am still a bit congested, but that's no big deal.

First off, I need to stress the importance of rest. It’s the best thing you can do for your body. My dog was super sick recently and just slept in the sun every day. We can learn a lot from dogs about listening to our bodies and giving ourselves time to heal.

Now, let’s dive into the four things I did to bounce back:

1. Vitamin C: Mega dose it! I use lypo spheric vitamin C, which is a thousand milligrams per packet. It doesn’t taste great, but it’s effective. I take three to four packets a day when I feel something coming on. It’s also great as daily immune support.

2. Vitamin D3 with K2: This is a game-changer. Most of us are deficient in vitamin D, which is crucial for many bodily functions. I take 40,000 to 50,000 IUs when I’m on the verge of getting sick. This combo is incredible, but always consult your doctor before taking high doses.

3. Electrolytes: I love LMNT electrolytes, especially the raspberry flavor. They’re sugar-free and help keep me hydrated. I drink three to four packets a day when I’m feeling under the weather.

4. Breathing: Stress reduces immunity, so managing stress is key. I practice nasal breathing, especially when I’m resting. I have some great podcast episodes on this, like episode 17 and a recent mini short one. They’re super helpful and make you feel better almost instantly.

So, to recap: vitamin C, vitamin D3 with K2, electrolytes, and breathing. Share this with anyone who might benefit, and let’s help each other stay healthy. Life’s too short to be down and out.
