The Evolving Man Podcast #96 - Breath of Life: Breathwork For Addiction Recovery with Nick Terry
Nick TNT Terry is a certified life coach, breathwork practitioner, intervention consultant, and an author. He is the co-founder of Honu House Hawaii, a residential rehab facility in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, and the owner of Breath of Life Recovery, a wellness consulting practice offering breathwork, cold water therapy and wellness modalities.
Since getting sober in 2014, Nick has worked for more than eight years in the field of addiction and mental health treatment. Nick shares how he transformed from wayward addict to breathwork and recovery life coach, and offers his holistic, much-needed perspective on how others can do the same.
Here’s what we get into:
- Nick’s childhood in a tumultuous environment, with early access to alcohol and drugs.
- As Gabor Mate says, the roots of addiction are disconnection.
- Nick’s habit of dishonesty and criminal behavior as coping mechanisms.
- Pivotal moments in his recovery journey that led him to seek long-term sober living.
- Transformative experiences with breathwork as a healing tool for trauma and disconnection.
- For addicts in recovery: The importance of being present in the moment, even if it’s uncomfortable.
- Nick describes how breathwork has helped him cultivate a sense of presence and connection that long eluded him.
