*Warning - she might blow your mind about the contraction of the diaphragm and how it alters during the contraction itself!!!!!The first time we had Jill Miller (author of Body by Breath) on the podcast we were blown away by the response from the podcast listeners. I wasn’t surprised as I’d read Jill’s book and interviewed her for my own book (out in 2026), so I knew how much passion, knowledge and wisdom she has to share on all things breathing and the nervous system.The first episode flew by for me and Jill and as soon as we came off air the first time we said we need to do a part 2. But I’ve been on many podcast where we say that to each other at the end, and it never happens. But this was different, we share a passion for breathing, teaching and coaching it and the conversation needed to continue… with the response from the listeners we knew we need to make it happen fast… so here we are with Jill Miller back for more!Learn more about Jill Miller Events & Online Classes - https://www.tuneupfitness.com/jill-miller-scheduleJill Miller Online Immersion - https://www.tuneupfitness.com/shop/online-course/body-by-breathLinks mentioned:EASTER25 Offer: 25% off Pro Breathwork 3 Best Programmes - https://www.probreathwork.com/easter259-11th May 2025 Oxygen Advantage Certification Retreat - https://www.probreathwork.com/certification
