E157: How Breath Work Saved Me - Interview with Aaron Deane

In this episode, Pete speaks to Aaron Deane a cyclist, coach, yoga teacher and traveller. It was when he was travelling he discovered the art of ‘breath work’ and this is what led him to studying the ‘Win Home Method’ and it’s three pillars. Today they talk about Aaron’s life of sport, his struggles with mental health and how he overcame many of his problems, both physical and emotional, through the power of breath work. KEY TAKEAWAYS Aaron had a difficult childhood but was always taught to just ‘get on with it’ so never tried to heal his trauma. He has struggled a lot of his life with aspects of loneliness and depression but it wasn’t until after he had got married had children and experienced the trauma of losing his brother that his mental health problems truly spiralled. Aaron recognises that he had a good life from the outside. He was lucky to have a lovely family and home but he couldn’t help but feel the way he did, he felt like a burden. Aaron discovered breathing exercises and it was this that completely transformed his life. It was the holy grail to him, he no longer needed antidepressants and it was something he was completely in control of. This lead to Aaron becoming invested in breath work and wanting to train to be a coach in it to help others. You can’t be happy every single day of your life, you then wouldn’t appreciate the good days. But Aaron now has the right tools that work for him to cope and deal with the bad days and he teaches this to other too.   BEST MOMENTS  “I didn’t know what trauma was I just thought, get on with it, so I did” “Every disease on this planet manifests from some kind of stress” “What I felt inside, that was the holy grail for me” “When you are having a bad day, acknowledge it and feel it and just say it’s only today” VALUABLE RESOURCES Subscribe to Fire In The Belly Podcast on Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/fire-in-the-belly/id1499375061) ABOUT THE GUEST Aaron Deane https://www.wimhofmethod.com/instructors/aarondeane ABOUT THE HOST The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire In The Belly’.  Pete is an Entrepreneur, Mentor, Coach, Property Investor, and father of 3 beautiful girls.
