I wish that everyone could realize that we are all the guru and the healer. If we can just learn these various techniques to hack our system then we can heal ourselves. Whether it be through various breathing techniques, Micro-dosing magic mushrooms, yoga, Qi Gong, various meditations, Wim Hof method, cold showers/ice baths etc....i'm currently exploring all these methods and there's truth to them all. I'm feeling much healthier and pain free as well as much happier!
To whoever reads this, i wish you peace and joy and healing. I know you CAN heal yourself. Never ever give up on yourself because YOU CAN DO IT!😉💗✌🙏
With many experiencing trauma, especially during childhood - we often hold our breath. And many have had to suppress their emotions around these diverse experiences. And as Diana says we are disconnected from our body. Breathwork helps us reconnect to our body and feelings. It’s part of a healing process that some find very helpful.
I have been doing breath work for over 15 years. I do many versions but holotropic and wim hof are my two favorite. I put breath work right up there with meditation and exercise. I do breath work everyday. I have never been to holotropic work shop but I do 30 minute to an hour sessions two to four times per week. I can tell when I need a short break or shorter or longer session based on how I’m feeling that day. I recommend holotropic breath work to anyone. I would recommend going to a work shop first though to learn the proper technique and have a sitter because it can get very emotional. I know it is not recommended to do alone but I have done it alone literally hundreds of times with no issues or safety concerns. The only side effect is the release of emotions and a more happy and peaceful mind. Breath on!
Interesting great share. I learned a new word, instead of saying “triggered”say activated it stays neutral and in your power.
I am Mohan, from Malaysia and 64 yrs old, I have my own experiences, and to add these conversation to them is breathtaking,thank you.
I have experienced maybe a half dozen group holotropic breathing sessions during my workshops with Diederik Wolsak who runs Choose Again. There’s no word in the English language to describe just how powerful and transformative these sessions are.
How did they transform your life? Be really interesting to hear. Cheers
I did one last month and it was the most profound experience of my life. Next one in two weeks and I can’t wait as I now know what to expect and how to navigate it
can you give specific examples?
You two are absolutely brilliant , thank you so much.. I had two amazing sessions with mike’s take a deep breath today.
I appreciate all you do for Your exercises have been so helpful and...have made a difference. Your presentations are so motivating. Thank you...your making a difference
Holotropic is the king of breathworks clinically speaking
Mike & Diana, thank you for wonderful interview! Very much appreciated Fascinating topic 🥰❤
Mike- Your explorations have affected my life in such a positive way. Thank you for this program.
Love your enthusiasm and energy. Thank you 💗
Thank you Diana and Mike for this very helpful interview on the importance of our breath and trusting ourselves to grow and heal. I plan to look into a Holotropic Breathwork group online. Very interesting and timely for me. ☮️
Agradecido por su esfuerzo en traernos tan importante información.
Absolutely loved Diana! She is such a loving presence. ❤️
completely agree ❤️❤️
Thank you! You both are amazing!
This cleared the confusion for me. I feel more comfortable, and a feeling of "I'm into the session" comes to me when I inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth. I'll stick with that then!
This breathing exercise helped me with my migraine issues. Maybe there was a release of the torrent of emotions from my body (I felt a lot of energy released from my body in my second session, and my sessions are not that long 40-80 minutes or so).
This was really great. Thank you both.
Diana you are seriously the best
Love Love Love your Channel im absolutely drinking it up!
First time visiting the channel and wow! As an interviewer, you ask such great questions. Thank you! What an interview ! Liked and subbed :)
Such a great interview, perfect questions
Very beautiful interview! Thank you!! 🙏🕉
Thanks for everything my brother!
Much love to you=)
So good isn't it
Thank you so much
Haven’t listened to the interview yet- impressed with this channel though and grateful ❤I found it! I started doing holotropic breath work in 2012 - it can be amazing! I restarted a couple years ago and have been having a VERY hard time with it with my Trauma Response characterized as OCPD and OCD, amongst other personality “disorders”- I’ve been having a hard time with the breathing with my perfectionism, and surrendering to the practice and being willing to do it.
So if there’s others of you out there struggling with it- know you’re not alone and my practitioner has said it may not he for me unfortunately:(. My stubbornness is having a hard time with how much I’m struggling with it. I want to be able to do it as it seems it can be so helpful
Me!!!
i loved this! i think i will try it alone despite what she says, i only say this because i’m sure a lot of people would suggest to not take psychedelics alone but my experience has been very therapeutic doing them alone, as intense as it was
i did it alone few times but i think it's better with someone because i tend to stop breathing and fall into euphoric state after about 45min but one has to go further than that and having help with that is very useful..
I've done this alone. It takes time to reach the depths needed for a release of deep seated often unrealized tensions, heartaches and fears but you can get there just keep going. I've fallen asleep and woke up back up and continued breath work. So it does re we require persistence and effort.
I think if youve done psychedelics alone ur good to go. Its quite similar..
Just dont use force. Go with what feels good.
@@quizatzhaderach3046 That, based on what Diane said, is okay. I can say this as I also feel the same and would go to sleep. After semi-waking up I don't know I feel happy, just happy. When I think of the cause of my happiness, I don't know, nothing comes over me. I feel that's how my psyche is responding.
I’m with you, will try it alone. No doubt there’s plenty benefits to doing it in a group, but I don’t think it can be dangerous in any way... you just need to surrender. Good luck to you and best wishes 🙏🏻
I appreciate what you’re doing with this channel, such a great idea!
Glad you enjoy it!
This is a great interview with Diana (sp. Medina?) and appreciate your personal comments on Wim Hof, etc. and this is a Great channel!
This was so informative, you asked great questions, thank you!
Looking forward to this. Very interesting 😃👍
What an education. Loved this podcast. Thank you both for all your hard work.🙏🙏🙏
Totally agree JJ
Thanks both, lovely comments, hope you enjoy the interview
Thank you for your channel, I am sure it will grow tremendously in the future!
Thank you, very kind
Wonderful interview. So interesting.
I found this interview quite helpful in understanding holotropic breathwork. a lot of insights here, thank you a lot for your effort. I would like to know more about breathwork especially after reading "breath" by james nestor. hopefully you do more breath content :) thanks again
Awesome. And you're a good interviewer.
Thank You ❤
What a lovely lady Diana is, so knowledgeable and humble. I think what I understand from this is that Holotropic Breathwork is very much a facilitated healing modality, where as Wim Hof Method is very much a do-it-yourself empowerment pathway. Both great.
I’d really love to try Holotropic Breathwork, but it looks like it’s going to be a long time before sessions will be running again.
There's not 1 human that's more powerful than yourself.
Lovely!! THANKS to both of you! 🙏💕🙏
Thank you too!
I tried this on my own years ago and it was phenomenal physically, I stopped when my fingers started to claw up as I got frightened. My mother tried to abort me with whisky and a knitting needle so I'm not sure where I will find my happy place as I've had a traumatic childhood
❤ sending love
Sending more love
I'm so sorry that you experienced something horrible like that.😢 Sending you much love and acceptance.
Brave is not someone who has no fear but someone who pushes forward when afraid. I’m saying this as much for you as for myself. Be courageous, feel the love
@@alereavideoyfotodealtura8045THERE IS NO COURAGE WITHOUT FEAR ❤❤❤
Fantastic interview! True inspiration and reminder. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! thank you so much
Thanks to both of you that was wonderful!
Thank you too!
Thank you❤️
This is a great interview thank you
Very good one this. Went thr very difficult and stressful times lately
PS - going from a complete athiest, through breath work, into a genuine experience that opened up you, and your heart, including the glimpse of your Higher (eye-er) Self. Sounds to me like your repetitive dream of being with friends yet feeling a little excluded has to do with closing off to something Greater than yourself! Welcome back!
Maybe you'll not be having that dream again anytime soon!😊
Thanks Kathleen, its so weird for me that people comment on those things, I almost forget what I am talking about with the guests because its a very personal 1 on 1 conversation, then when someone comments like you it reminds me whats been shared, which is a little weird but really nice too. thanks for the lovely comments, we shall see about the dreams. thanks so much for watching and commenting, Mike :-)
I cant imagine my life without my dreams. They have lead me to such happiness. Ive had sequels but never reoccurring dreams. My mother had reoccurring dreams about a past trauma. She didn't tell me or anyone until close to her death. I wished my mother would have resolved her dream and allow the dream to ignite healing. However, I a grateful that she shared her dream with me. It was such a relief to finally understand our lifelong conflict.
The unconscious mind lives in a timeless dimension. If your unconscious mind keeps sending you the same message, the timeless dimension has a gift for you.....I'd love to find out what happens when you open the gift up!
@@mcnorv1833
Sounds like your mother opening up about her difficult dream allowed you both to love more. Love Heals. I strive every moment it seems to love more. Myself and all that is. This helps me most to carry on. Especially in the case of lots of loss I've only recently been able to connect the dots of my feelings too. Anywho, take good care✨🙌✨✌✨🙌
Yes what you say about Mouthbreathing - it dries out the mouth and then, it is well known, that mouthbreathers are less healthy than nose breathers (see mewing or buteyko method) Thus, switching to nose breathing is great and I will definitely do the nose breathing instead.
Great interview!
Amazing video
First time on this channel, good questions man!
Excellent Insight
I love kundalini yoga for its breath work .. I shall look into this branch
Thanks ❤
Such a good interview and great person to interview! Wim hof is also my background with breath, but this was very interesting and helpful!
Glad you enjoyed it! thanks so much for leaving a comment to
@@TAKEADEEPBREATH s So curious, whether you have used your breathwork to move to non-duality people like Rupert Spira or Adyashanti? I am finding my deep feeling after breathwork, lead me to "awareness" and the very essence of being.
Hi Joseph, I need to look into that, thanks so much for sharing
Stan is a giant in the field of experiential therapy
Great interview
Awesome 👍👍👍
I would love more guidance of when to use which type of breathwork
Holotropic breathing on ketamine were some of the most intense and profound times of my life. Absolutely beyond words. I miss the depth and extreme spirituality of the experience… Lucid flash imagery and visions beyond belief… Incredible kundalini awakening and lightning shockwave out of body experiences all whilst flowing in the comfort of pre birth sleep.
My ketamin experience was the worst drug experience of my life .my brain could not reboot it was like a shuffling deck of cards it scared the shit out of me .magic mushrooms are my go to. .
Awesome video. Seriously though I watched the whole thing in one sitting, while most times I have to come back and finish. I appreciate the work and effort that you put into getting information out there.
Oh wow, thank you so much, Diana is ace! I loved talking with her, she made it so easy, thank you James Thedog for leaving this comment
I realize I'm kind of off topic but does anyone know of a good place to stream new series online ?
@Lance Alexzander flixportal :D
@Tatum Raul thanks, I went there and it seems to work =) I really appreciate it !
@Lance Alexzander Glad I could help :D
Thank you
Looking forward to this, cus I have no idea what Holotropic Breathwork is, thank you
Hope you enjoy it!
Mike, the question I would like to ask concerns the variability of one being able to hold ones breath on different days and even at different times on the same day. What accounts for such wide variations? For instance, yesterday I was just about to be able to hold my breadth for one minute at a time, over a number of sessions, whereas today, two sessions, so far, I was able to hold my breadth more or less for 2 to 2.5 minutes. Note that I do have the same exercise regime every day, and I am not over-weight. I am 73 years of age; in good health. Out of everyone in this space, you are the one that comes up trumps for me, and the most exciting thing is following the meditation after the breathing exercise. If my memory serves me right, it was covered in this podcast by the lovely lady you were interviewing.
You can hold your breath for longer if you are relaxed, if you even thinking about some problems or stress then it is shorter. Watch what you thinking about or how you feel before the breath work.
Doing it on an empty stomach, for me, yields the most consistency.
thank you
You're welcome
thanks,🙏🙏🙏,how often can one do holotropic breathwork in a day?
Awesome
Thank You TAKE A DEEP BREATH, I'll follow you now on Instagram too 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Me to me too
You're very welcome
Great intro, channel and podcast. Breathwork is new to me, but better late than never, hey🍑
Welcome aboard! Breathwork is a wonderful rabbit hole to go down, please ask questions in the comments and myself and the community will do our best to answer them, best wishes, Mike
@@TAKEADEEPBREATH will do Mike😀
Nothing better than Jacque lacan French psychoanalysis. I'm surprised that English native speakers don't delve into it...
Thanks
Thank you Lester
Thank you, this was so interesting 🌸👋
Steve's book?? Which one is that?
Very interesting
Glad you think so!
🙏🏼🙏🏼
❤
Lol 😂 no need to smash! Great discussion.
💕💕❤️
Did circular breathing for 40minutes last night as hard as I could but eased off when dizzy. Felt light headed and dry mouth but no emotions or spiritual insights. Am I doing it wrong?
Keep doing
Hi, you should not doing it alone, you need a sitteer and a facilitator. It is not about breath hard. It needs music and best would be agroup. It cannot be done allone. Noone can breath hard for 3 hours. It is also not hyperventilation like some people write.
🙏🏻🙂🙏🏻
Please take a minute to correct the spelling of Ms Medina's name in the first sentence. Thank you1
What about past lives? Wouldn't those be included perhaps profoundly in this breath work experience? Thank you! Wonderful pod cast.✨🙌✨💙✨🙌✨
I have a guest coming up very soon who I think will be addressing this very point
@@TAKEADEEPBREATH
Oh good. Thank you!
Mike, I have a question to ask you?
Go for it
🎉
So annoying when an ad interrupts a speaker mid-sentence! IMHO, UA-cam immediately got worse when Google took over, but now it seems to be getting worse and worse by the day, with all the interruptions and pushiness by UA-cam/Google. It's gotten so bad, that now I avoid it … except for useful info like this.

It was so nice to listen to this newly discovered channel until i heard you speaking about Steve Jobs and Joe Rogan. Idk which one of those people did worse things to our society. I really hope they were only your links to the holotropic breathing. Good talk anywas!
transpersonal realm
I watched till 50 minutes. I didn't get any technical information about holographic breathing. If you google one can find much more information about this kind of breathing. I feel I just wasted 50 minutes. Disappointed 😢.
@3:22 still just talking garbage ! What is the point of making so much sound when it has no meaning?
I truly appreciate this share!!!
I instinctively have been sharing this work without actually knowing this label ⚛️👁🫶🏻
