About Pause Breathwork

We help people decrease suffering, unlock their infinite potential and change lives.

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.

The Pause Mission

Our mission is to make emotional suffering optional.

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.
