So helpful for me on days when my hormones get the better of me and my mind is engulfed with a million things to do and I can't even begin to think where to start. 😐 Such a wonderful technique to get clarity and to feel present. 😊👍
Breathwork that can calm your mind and open your heart
Are you feeling stressed, isolated, or overwhelmed? Before we can talk about breathing, we need to talk about stopping. In this video, I share a personal revelation I had 15 years ago at 4 AM, and how it led me to discover the life-changing power of Box Breathing. Used by the military, police officers, and the NHS, this incredibly simple method can help you quickly lower your heart rate, reduce cortisol, and regain conscious control of your life. It is not about strict timing or holding your breath; it is about finding an attitude of letting go. "Take a moment. And in that gap between the stimulus and response, that's where your freedom lies."

Honestly James, this is the most incredible method to regain control... I use it every day, whether it is during a busy moment in my working day or in the middle of the night having woken up with the dreads and worries. It helps me put everything back into perspective... calmly and sensibly clears my mind and even helps me get straight back off to sleep. Just by stopping and breathing with this technique I have found it to be such a huge help. Thank you!!
The Alexander Technique & Breath: How to Stop Forcing Your Breathing
I am absolutely thrilled to share the very first sample from my new online breathwork course. This landscape version provides a more in-depth look at the principles we will be exploring together. I will let you in on a little secret: to get this footage, I had to move past some serious camera nerves. My work is usually one-to-one or with large groups, so the thought of speaking to a cold lens made me want to hold my breath and stay in bed. I had to put my own teaching into practice by stopping that immediate "fight or flight" response every time the camera and lights came on. During the filming process, I focused on finding my "up" and allowing my breath to happen rather than forcing it. This is the Alexander Technique in action; it is about finding genuine ease even when you feel a bit exposed. Creating a breathwork course has been a brilliant challenge, and I want to share what I have learned with as many people as possible. This snippet captures the heart of the course, which is dedicated to the process of unlearning old habits and rediscovering your natural poise. I am so grateful to everyone who has helped make this project so special. In this video, you will learn: How to identify the "fight or flight" response in your own body. The Alexander Technique principle of "finding your up." A first look at the sample lesson from the upcoming course.

Tip For Queues
James your session on the The Physiological Sigh has been so helpful. I am not one for a queue.. doesn't matter what type, just the whole standing in a line thing makes me anxious and so irritated as I know I could be doing something far more productive 🙄☺️ So I have started practising the Physiological Sigh when I am in any queue wherever it may be and guess what....... IT WORKS AMAZINGLY... of course it does! Truly, I cannot recommend it enough, watch James' session and try it out - I feel so much better for having to had to stop and just be present and breathe!! So a queue is now time for me to be kind to myself and breathe 😊
