Most of us are doing it 20,000 times a day—and doing it wrong.
Breathing isn’t just automatic. It’s foundational.
And when your breath is off, your body and mind feel it: stress spikes, energy crashes, and your nervous system can’t find its footing.
In this episode of Alive & Well, I’m joined by integrative physiotherapist Campbell Will, who has spent years studying the breath across ICUs, neurosurgical wards, elite athletic settings, and private practice.
What he’s found is simple but profound: when you breathe well, you elevate your health, performance, and emotional balance. When you breathe poorly, you drive dysfunction.
We’re diving into:
✔️ How the breath directly impacts your ability to self-regulate and co-regulate
✔️ What dysfunctional breathing really is—and the surprising ways it shows up in daily life
✔️ How poor breathing patterns keep your body stuck in stress (and what to do instead)
If you’ve ever felt tired, tense, or like your body is stuck in “on” mode—this episode will help you reconnect with the most powerful (and accessible) tool you already have.
🎧 Press play to learn how to reclaim your breath as the foundation of nervous system regulation, energy, and freedom.
