The Science of Breathwork—Rewiring Stress & Healing Trauma

There’s a power within you that’s working every moment of your life—quietly, constantly, and often unnoticed. Your breath.

In Episode 11 of Master Stress with Dr. S, I explore the profound science of breath work and how it can rewire your stress response and support healing from trauma. Despite still recovering from pharyngitis, I felt compelled to record this episode—because what I’ve experienced, and what the science supports, is too powerful not to share.

🎧 Listen to Episode 11: 

In this episode, I cover:

✔️ The emotional and physiological impact of how you breathe.

✔️ How breath work can alter brainwave patterns and shift your state.

✔️ What stress and trauma do to your natural breathing rhythm.

✔️ Practical steps to reconnect with your breath for calm, clarity, and healing.

This isn’t just about technique—it’s about transformation. When you change the way you breathe, you change the way you live.
