Day One of our Level One Breathwork Facilitator Training at with and .rodriguez.smith

Over the next 7 days, this group will be working with pranayama, somatics, meditation & self expression to step out into the world as certified breathwork facilitators.

After six years of our certification running online, this is our first ever in person certification and there is a magic in the air reminiscent to when we first opened our doors in June 2020. 🪄

So you want to lead another human on a deep exploration of their own inner world? 👇🏼

Have you also made sure to…

👉🏼 Take yourself as deep as you desire to take your clients?

👉🏼 Invest in education around the human psyche, nervous system and trauma

👉🏼 Devoted space to not just learning the techniques that facilitate transformation but EMBODYING and practicing it yourself?

Saying that you are a space holder or coach is one thing - but actually knowing how to hold someone in the midst of chaos or on the verge of a breakthrough is a science AND an art that very few have truly mastered.

That’s where we step in 🔥

To us, it’s not just about transferring knowledge - it’s about setting the foundation for our teachers to live with the highest integrity and awareness of the spectrum of human experience so that they can be a beacon of support, trust and safety for their clients.

Having this experience is what will remove the imposter syndrome you feel and skyrocket your confidence as a coach.

And don’t get us started on how that confidence will lead to you becoming the go-to coach in your space. 😮‍💨

Our why 💕👆🏼🥹

Over the last week, we’ve had over a dozen active students and alumni express their experience in our 12 Week Program was “lifechanging.”

When we say it changes lives, it might sometimes feel like just another adjective to describe a program - but to our community…

It’s so much bigger than that.

Because in truth…

Stepping into your power

Having the confidence to stand up and move through life in accordance with your souls path

Waking up excited to be of service instead of dragging yourself to get to a job you hate

Deepening in your relationships

Feeling more connected than ever to a spiritual source of love

💗 this changes everything for our people 💗

The ripple effect of this is beyond the 3 months we spend together - it’s life long. 😮‍💨

So yes, sure, you’re learning new skills to improve your business… but who you become in that process, THAT is what really changes your life.

Are you making this mistake as a coach? 👇🏼

*Dream client reaches out*

You: “OMG YES THIS IS WHY MY WORK IS THE BEST AND YOU’RE GOING TO LEARN ALL OF THIS AND IM GOING TO GIVE YOU ACCESS INTO ALL OF THESE THINGS AND HERES EVERYTHING WE ARE GOING TO DO TOGETHER!!!!”

*🦗🦗🦗🦗*

Information overload is not what your dream clients are coming to you for.

They want to know that you can get them results and that you understand where they are, where they want to be, and how to fill the gaps to get there.

When you focus on *experience over information* watch your clients results shift drastically.

When you lead with *experience over information* don’t be surprised if you start seeing more people inside your programs and more dream clients paying high ticket for your work.

😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

This is why embodiment practices and somatic techniques like breathwork are such a game changer for coaches.

YES you’re getting a tool that is sooo multi-faceted…

But it’s also a skillset that sells itself because the moment someone experiences a powerful breath session, they are SOLD on the method thanks to the instant shifts they feel.

Breath is the future of the personal development industry - now, we’re just waiting for you to jump on board with us. 😂

DM us BREATH! if you’re ready to learn more about our 12 Week Breathwork Certification. We’ve got 5 more spots available this month and one has your name on it. 😏

STRESS: It’s got a bad rep, but when you know how to work with your stress, you will be set up for exponential success in your career, relationships, and health. 💪🏼

As a leader, you are constantly putting yourself in new environments and one of the number one reasons people self sabotage is the resistant to the greater responsibility that comes from growing a bigger business.

That’s where breathwork comes in…

Success does not need to be paired with burnout.

Greater responsibility and impact with a tool like breathwork will allow you to show up powerfully for yourself and others because “stress” when you know how to expand your capacity for it, is simply a tool to help you SOAR. 🚀

When we invite teachers into our certification, we’re not only giving them the tools to help their clients grow, we enforce a “You are your most important client” mentality that sets our clients up to succeed so that they never shy away from stretching themselves again. 😮‍💨

Stress isn’t bad, you just need to know how to work with it to use it to your advantage. 🙏🏼

We might need to write a whole book on this one 😂

There are three main things to think about as it relates to the nervous system and your client’s success:

1️⃣ Their level of stress and physiological safety and how stress and lack of safety is interfering with their ability to grow and evolve into the person they desire to be.

2️⃣ Their tolerance for new experiences and how a low tolerance will likely create a pattern of yo-yoing in their results or burning out from overwhelm.

3️⃣ The reprogramming that comes from new thoughts, feelings and actions and how, when intentionally trained, they can become a new version of themselves by patterning a new way of being in.

If you’re working with the human psyche and in the coaching space, you are ALREADY working with the nervous system - most coaches don’t realize it!

So when you understand how to leverage the ways of the nervous system to your client’s advantage, you can expect to get your client’s better and more sustained results in their life.

Nervous system work might be growing in popularity, but there is good reason for it - book a call with our team today by DMing us BREATH and we’ll teach you exactly how we take our coaches through our 12 week program so that they can master the nervous system and uplevel their coaching client’s results.

And this is where traditional NLP, mindset coaching, spiritual laws, and many forms of talk therapy miss the mark…

Trauma is unprocessed stored emotion, sensation, and experiences of the past held in the body and tucked deep into the mind.

Some trauma (capital T) is regarded by society as more intense whereas other trauma (lowercase t) might be as simple as your friend’s parent scolding you as a child.

Regardless of the “intensity” of the trauma, we’ve all experienced it and the imprint it can leave on our psyche, behavior, interpersonal relationships and level of safety we feel operating in the world is universal.

As a coach/teacher/space holder, being aware of how trauma presents itself and knowing how to skillfully engage with your client when their trauma response arises is one of the most important responsibilities you have.

A single question.
A single prompt.
A single visualization exercise.

All can activate a memory, sensation, or emotion within the person that sits in front of you.

The human brain and body is brilliant and miraculous in how it protects us and when you understand its protector parts and how to work with them - THAT is when you’ve become masterful at your craft.

One of the biggest questions we get inside of our 12 Week Certification is: WHAT DO I CHARGE!!

(We created a Pricing Equation for exactly this inside our Business Coaching portal!)

It’s true… there is a coach at every price point BUT, just because you can charge whatever doesn’t mean that you believe you are worthy of receiving that high ticket price point.

Here’s what we suggest if you desire to raise your prices and BELIEVE that people will pay you:

1️⃣ Get the right education that builds confidence in your ability to help others and deliver results
2️⃣ Get as much experience as possible with a variety of clients - the more experience you have supporting people, the bigger your belief in self will be!
3️⃣ Get OBSESSED with getting your people results - the more results you see, the more valuable you’ll believe your work to be.

Inside of our 12 Week Certification, we support coaches train with the right education, get tons of experience practice teaching under their belt AND walk away with 5 testimonials that showcase the real results and life-changing benefits of their work. 👏🏼
