In this deeply honest conversation, I sit down with breathwork facilitator, founder of Immersive Breathwork, and creator of The Remembered Self, Ashley Adelman, to explore what it truly means to come home to yourself.
From navigating divorce, depression, loneliness, and identity loss to discovering breathwork as a powerful tool for healing emotional trauma, Ashley shares his remarkable journey of transformation and why healing isn't about becoming someone new, it's about remembering who you've always been.
We also dive into the science of breathwork, nervous system regulation, emotional release, masculinity, vulnerability, and the courage it takes to strip away everything that no longer serves you.
