Today I talk with my friend and colleague Casey Hall, who is a sensuality coach, about the power of slowing down. Casey is both a sensuality coach and holistic wellness coach and has studied and worked in the wellness landscape for many years. She is the best person to talk to about this subject because not only is it the centre of her work but it is her life story also. She learned that slowing down was helped her heal and grow after many years of living a fast paced life.

In the podcast we discuss:

How Casey moved into corporate wellness and realised that 90% of the cases Doctors deal with are related to stress,
That sensuality is a key to helping us slow down and live a life with more presence,
That the emptiness and loneliness many of us feel is a disconnection from self and slowing down helps us to reconnect with ourselves,
How pleasure is a great tool to help us to slow down and be more present in our lives,
That many of us have internalised cultural belief systems around slowing down and pleasure that stop us from pursuing both and this lives largely in our unconscious so most of us are not aware of our blockages toward pursuing both,
Our bodies speak their own language and they are talking to us all the time, we just learned to ignore their messages,
Slowing down helps us to make better conscious choices and decisions in our life.

You can find Casey at her website www.sensualitycoach.com on instagram @sensuality_coaching. Casey does a podcast with her Business Partner Elizabeth Menzel called “Slow the F Down” you can find it on all major podcasting platforms.

People have been asking me to do a podcast on Breathwork for a long time. So finally here it is. Today I talk to my friends and colleagues Jackie Verinder and Timmy Noad who are both Breathwork teachers about Breathwork. Jackie and Timmy have a great story about their own journey to breathwork and how it has helped them release trauma from their body, connect with their emotions and feelings, grow into emotional adulthood and how it has improved their overall sense of wellbeing, self-acceptance and self-love.

Timmy and Jackie between them are trained in a number of different modes of breathwork including , Oxygen Advantage, SOMA breath, XPT Performance Breath and both are Zen Thai Shiatsu (level one) practitioners.

In the podcast we talk about:

Jackie and Timmy’s own story and how breathwork has helped them in their lives,
What is breathwork?
What are the different styles of breathwork and how do they help,
How you might go about picking a style that suits your needs and what questions to ask of your potential teachers,
What to expect in a group session and one on one sessions and how to determine what might suit you between the two delivery methods,
Questions you can ask potential teachers to work out if they are a good match for your needs,
How our current culture impacts on how we experience our emotional lives.

Jackie and Timmy are based on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia. They do individual and group sessions there, on the Gold Coast, Brisbane and Melbourne. You can find them at www.create-flow.com.au on instagram @createflowbreathwork and facebook at Create flow Breathwork
