Episode Synopsis

In this episode of The Mindful Educator podcast, Victoria is joined by breathwork facilitator, nervous system educator, mum, and founder of Breathing Space, Tash Forbes.Tash shares the deeply honest story of hitting burnout, ending up in hospital with a major panic attack, and realising that “just talking about it” wasn’t shifting anything. From there, she discovered breathwork, experienced a profound session that changed her whole state, and decided to train as a facilitator so she could bring this work to other women.Together, Victoria and Tash chat about the nervous system, why so many women are stuck in constant “go, go, go” mode, and how we can gently teach our bodies that it’s actually safe to slow down. They break down what breathwork really is (beyond “I’m breathing anyway!”), why so many of us have no idea how to truly take a deep, regulating breath, and how simple, tiny moments of intentional breathing can shift our entire day.This episode is especially powerful for mums, educators and women who feel wired, snappy, unable to relax, or who “can’t meditate” and think that means they’re broken. You’ll walk away with practical nervous system tools you can use today — and simple ways to bring calming breath into your children’s routines, too.Tash’s current offerings include: 1:1 breathwork sessions (online and in-person in Kununurra) A 6-week intensive women’s coaching container to help reset the nervous system Small group breathwork sessions in Kununurra, with plans to expand to online groupsConnect with Tash: Instagram: @tashforbes_ Business: Breathing Space – breathing-space.com.auConnect with Victoria:If this episode resonated with you, or you’re curious about mindfulness, coaching or nervous system support, you can connect with Victoria here: Instagram: @the.victoria.r Podcast: The Mindful Educator (follow & leave a review if you loved this chat!)
