Breathwork for Anxiety, Focus, & Parenting | Practical Tips | Heidi Tacktill

Ready to unlock your potential, manage anxiety/stress, and improve your focus?

In this illuminating episode of the Being the Best Version of Yourself podcast , Dr. Carey Heller sits down with integrative breathwork practitioner Heidi Tacktill to explore the transformative power of breathwork for both adults and children.

In this episode, you will learn:

What Breathwork Really Is: Understanding the three main types of breathwork: acute, daily, and therapeutic.

Breathwork for Focus and ADHD: Simple techniques, like the "breath of fire," that can help you or your children improve focus and get ready for the day.

The Science of Regulation: How breathing directly impacts the nervous system to move you into a calm, "rest and digest" state, essential for learning and emotional balance.

Navigating Executive Functioning Challenges: Heidi shares a powerful, simple starting point—bringing awareness to the breath to bring yourself back to the present moment and into your body. She also illustrates a great visual activity to do during a meditation activity for people who struggle with staying focused.

Parenting and Co-Regulation: Why working on your own nervous system first is the most crucial step in helping your children achieve calm and regulation, especially when dealing with anxiety.

Easy Ways to Get Started: Practical tips for incorporating breathwork into your daily routine—it doesn't have to be just sitting meditation; movement, music, and writing can also be mindful practices.

Therapeutic Breathwork: How circular breathing can help release deeply stored emotional patterns and trauma from the body.
