Back To The Breath
"Back To The Breath" is a platform for discussing ideas related to self-mastery, healthy self expression, and forming a spiritual bond with ourselves and the world. You will mainly find discussions based around developing better mental health and in an effort to do that, we explore all sorts of modalities on this podcast such as spirituality, religion, the 12 steps, psychedelic therapy, meditation, breathwork, exercise, & different mental frameworks such as IFS, or the concept of an inner-child. Some of these modalities are based in scientific study and others are anecdotal and based in individual's subjective experience so, I always encourage people to do their own research as we are always learning.
Overall, I feel we're all capable of living fulfilling lives on our own terms and hope that this podcast can be a vessel for communicating that idea to the listener.

Mike Gonzalez is a 2nd degree black belt, former MMA Champion and creator of the Championship Mindset program, a program where Mike coaches individuals to better develop their focus. Mike is also one of the leaders of the Awakened Warriors Men's Group here in Austin, which is how we met.
In this episode, Mike and I discuss the importance of "administering your medicine" , expressing yourself, and stepping into discomfort in order to do so. We also talk about his focus program and some of the tools he implements to help people develop better mindsets and hone their focus, such as:
- Journaling
- Meditation
- The Art of Having Faith in Yourself
We also discuss Mike and Derek Gutierrez's upcoming father-son retreats which they are planning on hosting soon. We discuss what we can expect from the retreat's, why they are so beneficial for individuals and why we are both passionate about retreats.
