EP. 189 In this episode of The Dr. Tyna Show, I’m joined by Aaron Alexander, a movement specialist, founder of the Align Method, and host of the Align Podcast. After being on Aaron’s podcast recently, I knew I had to bring him on mine. We dive deep into breathwork and its incredible power to transform your health, movement, and emotional state. Aaron shares his insights on how the mechanics of breathing can unlock a sense of calm and freedom—something I’ve been striving for as I continue to age and seek more peace in my life.

We explore everything from stress responses and overcoming fears to using breathwork as a tool for resilience. Whether you’re new to breath practices or a seasoned pro, this episode is packed with wisdom that will help you connect with your body and mind in a deeper way.

  • The power of breathwork in managing stress and emotions
  • How breath can impact your health and movement
  • Breathing techniques to achieve calm in reactive states
  • Overcoming panic through conscious breathing
  • Relaxation and grounding practices to release tension
