About Pause Breathwork

Our mission is to make emotional suffering optional by empowering people with science-backed breathwork and somatic techniques that unlock freedom, clarity, and personal power.

Here at Pause, we know that the body is the healer…

We envision a world where everyone has the awareness and knowledge to use their breath to clear anxiety and stress. It’s our big audacious goal to impact 1,000,000 people through the power of breathwork, embodiment and leadership!

We’ve developed our own breathwork and coaching techniques to maximize healing and transformation, so we can access deeper states of bliss, peace, and happiness.

There are many breathing practices that aim to just relax you, but with Pause Breathwork, relaxation is actually a side effect of the practice. Our breathwork and coaching techniques help you discover stuck energy inside of you that stops you from living in your highest alignment. When you release this energy, you can operate at a higher frequency with more ease.

We empower individuals through science-backed breathwork and somatic practices that heal at the root—beyond mindset—so they can finally feel safe, powerful, and whole in their bodies.

Our work is for:

Seekers at the beginning of their healing journey

Who know there’s more to life than stress, burnout, and emotional overwhelm—but don’t yet have the tools to access it.

Coaches, facilitators,
and leaders

Who are ready to go beyond talk-based methods and bring breathwork into their offerings to create deeper, lasting transformation for their clients.

Practitioners building their business

Who are looking to scale with soul—stepping into abundance, alignment, and a life of purpose through serving others with this work.

What is breathwork?

At Pause Breathwork, our signature method of somatic breathwork reconnects the power of the mind with the innate wisdom of the body, providing a deeply experiential and transformational pathway to growth and healing.

Grounded in neuroscience and rooted in trauma awareness, our approach integrates somatic breathwork, body-based techniques, and coaching to safely uncover and release suppressed emotions and physical tension stored within the body. With a compassionate understanding of how trauma impacts the nervous system, our method creates a safe and supportive environment for individuals to process and heal at their own pace.

Through the development of somatic awareness, participants gain clarity, emotional freedom, and authentic alignment, unlocking their full potential and reclaiming their inner power.

Meet The Founder

Hey, I’m Samantha — founder of Pause Breathwork.

I’m so glad you’re here.

Over the past 13+ years, breathwork has completely changed my life. It helped me get out of my head, heal emotional patterns I didn’t even know I was carrying, and feel alive again — like, truly alive.

I started Pause because I saw how many people were silently struggling, stuck in loops of anxiety, burnout, and never feeling “enough.” I knew there had to be a way out that didn’t just live in the mind — and breathwork was it.

Our vision?

To make breathwork as normal and everyday as brushing your teeth — because when you learn how to use your breath to regulate, release, and reconnect… everything shifts. Your energy. Your clarity. Your power.

Whether you’re here to heal, to grow, or to bring this work to others — welcome. You’re in the right place.

We train people like you to become world-class breathwork facilitators, to feel deeply aligned in your purpose, and to actually make a living doing work that changes lives. If you feel like you’re here for something more, you’re not imagining it. You are. And we’re here to walk that path with you.

Thanks for being here. Truly.

Let’s do something incredible together.
