#9 - The Power of the Breath for Anxiety, Stress, and Healing with Valerie Scagliola, Certified Breathwork Coach

In this episode, Emily welcomes Valerie Scagliola, who is a Certified Breathwork Coach, to share with us how to use the breath to cope with anxiety, manage stress, and even heal emotional wounds. 

Valerie shares her expertise and sheds a light on how emotions are stored in the body and the importance of using somatic practices like breathwork to release them and heal. We also explore why our "fight or flight" response is not always the enemy, and how to strategically breathe to feel relief from anxiety and stress, sleep more deeply, or provide a boost of energy when feeling fatigued. 

She even shares her favorite go-to breathing techniques that will universally benefit both beginners and regular users of breathwork alike.
