Elevate Your Mindset and Master the 6-Minute Breath Hold | World Champion Free Diver Li Karlsen

Here’s my wonderful conversation with Li Karlsen, a freediver and former Swedish Army captain. She served for 20 years before discovering freediving at 35. Li has broken records, including a 200-metre dive on one breath, and a dive under Greenland's ice. Now she helps others face their fears. We talked about her change from military life to ocean depths, and Li shared how freediving helped her heal and find herself. She gives insights on mindset, self-compassion, and purpose that apply to daily life, and her 'Naked Island Test' might change how you see yourself and others. This talk made me want to push my limits and listen to my inner voice. Whether you're changing your life or want something new, Li's story could inspire you. Let me know if this makes you try something different - maybe not Arctic freediving, but who knows? Sarah Ann 💛 ***BON CHARGE | Science-backed beauty, wellness and recovery products.https://boncharge.com/LIVEWELL?rfsn=8119877.ae1cd73Use code LIVEWELL for 15% off.OptimallyMe | Personalised insights for optimal health.https://bit.ly/lwbw20Use code LWBW20 for 20% off.Squarespace |  A website makes it real.http://squarespace.com/LiveWellGet a free trial and use code LIVEWELL for 10% off your first website or domain purchase.***If you enjoyed this episode you might also like:Nicole Vignola: The 7-Step Process to Rewire Your Brainhttps://youtu.be/JHn8z3w6AFQ Mo Gawdat: How To Transform Stress Into Successhttps://youtu.be/5THJeXv5X7s?si=fkAX9baNqJ4isyC0Dr. Shefali: How To BREAK FREE From The Self-Awareness TRAPhttps://youtu.be/k_9oQBSE4uU?si=nWyy0dVEfYc8uu_E***Let’s be friends!📷 Instagram:  / sarahannmacklin📹 Subscribe:   / @livewellbewellsarah  🐦 Twitter:  / sarahannmacklin  📱 TikTok:  / sarahannnutrition  💌 Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3rUbHyS***Unlock Stress-Busting Recipes: Get My Top 5 Mood-Boosting Meals Now! 🍽️🧘‍♀️ | Click Here to Reduce Stress Deliciouslyhttp://bit.ly/3HDuVxj Fuel Your Mind Weekly: Subscribe to Our Free Mental Wellness Newsletter 🧠💪 | Join Now for Expert Tips, Inspiration, and Self-Care Strategieshttps://view.flodesk.com/pages/63da7b62ecc678190062732d***Highlights:Introduction: The Experience of a 200-Metre Dive (00:00)Mindset and Mental Preparation in Freediving (04:52)Military Background and Emotional Struggles (10:48)The Impact of PTSD and Getting Therapy (15:59)A Life-Changing Car Accident (22:34)Letting Go of the Past and Embracing Change (29:07)Dealing with Self-Criticism and Self-Love (33:44)The Mental Preparation and Challenges of Freediving (39:01)Powerful Tips for Preparing Your Mindset (45:05)How To Go Beyond Your Fears and Find Purpose (55:23)Future Aspirations and Final Thoughts (01:01:49)
