Today Sammi is joined by expert breathwork coach and founder of The Breath Space, Jamie Clements (@jamieclements_).

Jamie has worked alongside top entrepreneurs, politicians, athletes and many more, to share the life changing potential of breathwork and altered states of consciousness. After discovering out first-hand just how impactful breathwork can be, through his own journey with anxiety and panic attacks, Jamie strongly believes that breathwork is the most universal and powerful tool that we all have access to change our minds and live healthier, happier lives.

In this conversation they break down what breathwork is, why it has surged into the mainstream, and how breathing can shift your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual state by acting as an accessible lever on the nervous system. Jamie explains a range of practices, how the industry evolved alongside the rise of figures like Wim Hof and James Nestor’s book Breath, and why modern life’s pace, stress, and disconnection have made understanding breathwork even more vital.

And make sure you stay right to the end... as a special bonus, Jamie delivers a 60-second guided practice.
