Our mission is simple but powerful: to make emotional suffering optional through breathwork and somatic healing.
We are the world leading academy training coaches and leaders in the most effective breathwork and somatic healing methods so they can facilitate deep transformation for their clients, and of course – themselves.
Because true change doesn’t happen in the mind alone—it happens in the body. And when you master these tools, you don’t just help people talk about transformation—you help them feel it, embody it, and live it.

At Pause Breathwork, our signature method of somatic breathwork reconnects the power of the mind with the innate wisdom of the body, providing a deeply experiential and transformational pathway to growth and healing.
Grounded in neuroscience and rooted in trauma awareness, our approach integrates somatic breathwork, body-based techniques, and coaching to safely uncover and release suppressed emotions and physical tension stored within the body. With a compassionate understanding of how trauma impacts the nervous system, our method creates a safe and supportive environment for individuals to process and heal at their own pace.
Through the development of somatic awareness, participants gain clarity, emotional freedom, and authentic alignment, unlocking their full potential and reclaiming their inner power.
“I am expanding my business, making way more money through teaching breathwork and having such incredible transformations with my clients in such a short amount of time because I no longer have to coach them out of their minds and into their bodies because breathwork does that for me.”
“I am writing this 3 months after graduating the Pause Breathwork Facilitator Program – since graduating, I’ve made $73,000 in sales from doing the thing that lights up my heart, I couldn’t be happier”
“Pause has taught me how to go within and learn who I truly am, and that ripples in my teachings so people gravitate towards me – I make more money and am more confident after taking this life changing training”
“The Pause Program was the most beautiful experience. I feel so empowered to take this work to the world and be a world changing coach. This is more than just a certification, this program was the most powerful personal development journey of my life.”
“I understand my personal energy WAY better than I did before, which helps me make decisions every day so I can stay resourced and rest when I need to. My ability to live life and work has grown as I know how to resource my personal energy “charge up” and align with what I want to truly be doing.”
