Introduction
It all begins with a single breath. Over the last 5 years Kevin O’Neill has researched, read and experienced the power of the breath and how cold water therapy and breathwork can fundamentally regulate our nervous system, making us more resilient and able to deal with life’s challenges.
Breathwork
Breathwork is a powerful practice that harnesses the innate power of conscious breathing to enhance physical, mental, and emotional well-being. By focusing on the breath, it helps reduce stress, increase mindfulness, and promote relaxation. Breathwork can improve oxygen flow, regulate the nervous system, and even release stored emotions or trauma.
Cold Water Therapy
Cold water therapy offers numerous benefits for both the body and mind. Exposure to cold water can reduce inflammation, boost circulation, and strengthen the immune system. It also stimulates the production of endorphins, improving mood and mental clarity and helps to enhance resilience to stress and increase energy levels
Nervous System Regulation
Nervous system regulation is essential for maintaining balance between the body’s stress response and its ability to rest and recover. Learning to shift the nervous system from a heightened state of fight-or-flight to a more relaxed, parasympathetic state, reduces stress, enhances emotional resilience, and supports overall mental and physical well-being.
