S4: E9 - Tapping into Breathwork with Niall O'Murchu

In this week’s episode, I chat with Niall Ó Murchú, a breathwork teacher, author and a certified level 3 Wim Hoff instructor. Niall is well known for breathwork and ice baths and is here to share with us today all elements of his work.  Niall shares with us his own difficult relationship with the breath both at birth and with a personal history of asthma. He opens up our understanding of why it is important to have awareness of our breathing and the improvements we can experience by taking the time out to slow down. We also explore ways that resistance to breathing can signify a subconscious resistance to change. Key takeaways: Our breath reflects our emotions at any moment Breathing practices help us to slow down and do nothing other than enjoy the sacred Breathwork can easily be done by children and teenagers and can have a powerful impact The cold water experience is all about practising the breath. Emotional health is often overlooked and we need to start to raise our awareness of it Awareness of our breath gives us space to see our reaction before we react Niall’s passion to bring awareness of breathwork to all ages is inspiring. His practices for children and teenagers and adults ensure that the breath is put at the forefront of our thinking at all stages of our life and his approach surely will make a profound difference.
