She started teaching breathwork in 2016 in Delray Beach, and began to see a dynamic relationship between the breath rhythm & the state of the nervous system. She trained with an Apache medicine man who was taught by Tibetan monks. Her studies of Arnold Ehret, music, beekeeping, & ground force reaction made her look at the breath as an equation. By deducing what she was witnessing to an equation she began to see a pattern that she calls the Brain & Breath Connection.
