Think of me as that friendly local who lives in and loves the town you are visiting, and wants to share with you what they love about that special place. That special place for me is the hamlet of the breath. Instead of showing you the local haunts, I guide you to explore the inhales, exhales, and pauses in between, and how your body moves alongside the breath so you can emerge into your fullest expression of you.
