Spiritus Breathwork Changed My Life

Five years ago, I was at the height of my landscaping business. A team of 14, several million dollars in turnover, managing between 120 and 150 projects a year. On paper, it looked like success. In reality, I was barely surviving.

Stress was constant. I thought I was fit because of the work on site, but I wasn’t exercising intentionally. My nutrition was poor, living off coffee, eating on the run. My gut health was terrible, and my cortisol levels were sky-high. I wasn’t present at home for my family, and I wasn’t taking care of myself.

In November, during the height of pre Christmas pressure, everything collapsed. I found myself in the fetal position in my bedroom, unable to move forward, speak, or function. I had reached my absolute limit. I made the difficult choice to step away from the team, take the rest of the year off, and leave things in their hands. That was the start of my breathwork journey.

The Beginning of My Breathwork Journey

I reached out to a breathwork instructor I had met at a gym event. I knew I had to learn more. By January, I was enrolled in a Breathwork instructor training, a moment that would forever change the course of my life.

Up until that point, I would have told you I wasn’t stressed. But after my first breathwork session, I realized the truth: I had been living in a constant state of heightened stress for years. Breathwork showed me what it felt like to truly be present, calm, and home in my body.

It gave me space to just be, without needing to do. I could finally break free from the addictive cycle of cortisol and adrenaline that stress had created in my body.

Why Spiritus Breathwork Resonated

Spiritus Breathwork is unique. It is deeply healing, yet gentle, allowing the body and mind to release and process in a way that is safe, supportive, and transformative.

For me, it was about taking responsibility for my own healing. Too often, we outsource our challenges, seeing doctors, taking medications, or expecting external solutions. Breathwork gave me the power to change from within. I created the shift through my own breath, and that empowerment was life-changing.

The conscious, connected, cyclic breathing of Spiritus allowed me to truly sit with myself for the first time in years. Sometimes it brings things up that need to be felt, but never in a way that overwhelms or forces the process. It meets you where you are, gently, yet profoundly.

The Transformation

Spiritus Breathwork changed my life. It changed my family’s life. It changed the way I see the world.

It brought me home to myself, taught me presence, and gave me tools to navigate stress, fear, and overwhelm. It showed me that true healing comes from within, and that transformation is possible when we are willing to show up, breathe, and face ourselves honestly.

Now, sharing Spiritus Breathwork feels like a God-given gift. I want others to experience the same empowerment, to know that they can take responsibility for their wellbeing and create change from the inside out.

Reflective Question

If you are reading this, ask yourself:

Where are you outsourcing your healing?
What might change if you took responsibility, showed up for yourself, and breathed into your own transformation?

Spiritus Breathwork isn’t just a technique, it’s a pathway home to yourself. And for me, it has been nothing short of life-changing.
