Episode Synopsis

Can somatic healing and breathwork techniques unlock the emotions we've buried in our psyche? In this conversation about overcoming anxiety with meditation, Jon Orsini shares his transformative journey from experiencing debilitating panic attacks at age 18 to discovering mindfulness and breathwork for mental health. His personal story demonstrates the remarkable benefits of somatic breathwork when a seemingly simple breathing exercise unexpectedly revealed years of suppressed anger from his high school days – emotions he had unconsciously buried beneath the surface.The discussion sheds light on how unresolved trauma and unconscious tensions can manifest as physical and mental dis-ease, and how specific stress management through breathwork can help bring these hidden patterns to light. Jon's evolution from actor to practitioner showcases the profound impact of combining mindfulness for anxiety relief with somatic healing practices. His wisdom reminds us that "You can't want healing for someone more than they want it for themselves" – but when someone is ready to embrace change, could these powerful techniques be the gateway to lasting transformation?To connect with Jon:Website: JON ORSINI - WELCOMEInstagram:  @jonorsiniYouTube: Breathwork with Jon - YouTubeBook mentioned in the EpisodeRewilding by Micah MortaliRewilding: Meditations, Practices, and Skills for Awakening in Nature: Mortali, Micah, Cope, Stephen: 9781683643258: Amazon.com: BooksSydona’s Elimination Diet: https://sydona-tregoning.mykajabi.com/resources-pageTune in to learn more about how food can be used as a powerful tool to actually improve your health!
