This is a fascinating conversation because we’re breathing all the time but we don’t think about how much our breath connects with the health of our mind and body.
Cindy T. De Bonis is a Postpartum & Breathwork Practitioner who helps overwhelmed pregnant and postpartum moms get out of their chaotic minds with simple mindfulness tools.
Let’s dive into how this incredible tool you always have at your disposal is a critical part of your health and well-being in motherhood.
Where to find Cindy DeBonis:
In this episode, we are sharing:
- The two types of breathwork (intentional practice and daily awareness) and how you can incorporate them into your routines.
- The importance of understanding the body’s states of being: rest and digest vs fight or flight and how your breath determines which state you’re in.
- Some techniques for diaphragm breathing for mental and physical postpartum recovery.The most important thing to take away from this conversation is that it’s not necessary to dive headfirst into an extensive breathwork practice. Rather, start where you are and focus on your breath a few times a day. During this conversation, Cindy will give you some practical and amazing tips for exactly how you can get started and the research to support exactly why you’ll want to.
