14. Improve Your Performance and Ability to Handle Stress Through Breathwork with Taylor Somerville

Amanda speaks with Taylor Somerville on the power and benefits of breathwork, as well as how to incorporate a breathwork practice into your life. They discuss how to better manage stress through breathing. They dive into how to calm yourself down in stressful situations, as well as ramp yourself up when you need to. Amanda embarked on a 4-week breath class journey with Taylor, followed by Cold and Heat Therapy. They speak about her experience and all that she gained from Taylor's teachings, wisdom and insights. Taylor talks about how the breath is one of the key components of changing your mental and physical health. They explore how so many times the negative narratives that we tell ourselves, are just that, and have no validity to them at all. Taylor shares the importance of going within ourselves with breathwork practices and breathwork exercises you can try at home.

Taylor Somerville, founder of Symmetry and breathwork coach, teaches individuals and groups, both in-person and virtually, on how to use the breath to combat stress. After working in the investment business for 15 years and going through a divorce in 2014, Taylor discovered breathwork as a way to deal with the stress and anxiety in his personal and professional life. Through breathwork, Taylor was able to learn how to respond to stressful situations in a productive manner rather than reacting. In 2017, after seeing the positive changes in himself, Taylor felt a calling to help others with improving their own stress management, anxiety, athletic performance and overall health and wellness. Taylor focuses on teaching you these tools to empower yourself.
