337: Rewire Your Nervous System Out of Stressful Patterns Using Your Breath w/ Amanda Laine

If You Want To Use Breathwork Effectively, You Should: Be sure to nasal breathe on your day today Always focus on a slow, deep breath  Explore breathwork apps like Othership   Breathwork has been a powerful tool that has helped me reset my stress response patterns and create a greater sense of peace and transformation. Feeling stressed is the new normal for many women, but it doesn't have to be that way. If you can learn how to control your breath, you can rewire your brain and reset your stress response system using something you do every single day.   Creating Breakthrough Experiences with Amanda Laine Amanda Laine is the co-founder of Othership, the leading digital breathwork content creator. Othership was born out of the desire to help people do breathwork online or in-person to experience the transformative power of breathwork. Amanda combines breathwork, hypnosis, movement, and sound in innovative ways, which has led to thoughts of breakthrough experiences. She is passionate about helping others build resilience and transform their lives through the Othership app.   Don’t Take Your Breath for Granted One of the reasons many of us have become so bad at responding to stress is because of all of the comforts our lives contain, compared to the hunters and gatherers that came before us. Because we don't need to be running for food or being worried about getting eaten by a bear, our brain has been rewired to stress out about other things instead. Utilizing breathwork is one of the easiest ways to help calm your central nervous system in times of stress. Most of us take our breath for granted, but it is the key to resetting our body's stress response and bringing ourselves back to equilibrium.   The Best Way to Release Your Stress Even if you have tried breathwork in the past, you have probably never tried it the Othership way. In as little as 4 minutes, Othership can help you release in the comfort of your own home, which Amanda has found to lead to more intense and more fulfilling breathwork sessions.  Breathwork can help you rewire your state of consciousness, heal trauma, release stuck energy patterns and those thoughts that aren't serving you. The direct evidence of how breathwork, and stressors like sauna and cold-plunge therapy, can help you shift out of parasympathetic stress is undeniable.
