LIVE Step by Step Guidance
With Sam
Meditation, Breathing and Movement
Community and Support in "Atomic" Habit Building
I'm Samantha and I have been helping clients heal the past and shape their futures for over 20 years.
The one thing all my clients had in common?
the realization that the key is
Breath!
Do you breathe like a wounded animal? Or a well-fed lion?
This video explains the importance of my holistic approach to shifting anything from mood to sleep, from digestion to chronic pain and disease.
Wounded Animal v:s The Well Fed Lion Metphor 1
I have spent so many years and so much MORE money studying with renowned experts, searching for the key to my own suffering.
young me
Childhood trauma, grief, crippling anxiety, cyclical depression, IBS, and insomnia were my curriculum vitae.
If I'm honest, when I look back I was "powerlifting" all the spirituality, philosophy, psychology, mythology, gross and subtle anatomy, physiology, and techniques I could get my hands on.
It was largely an intellectual process, though I did sometimes get lost in the spiritual junk food and pop psychology.
I was looking for that one special formula that would lift me out of my darkness and enlighten me physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
Had I known then what I know now...
All the history, dogma, data, and techniques in the world could not help me if I was practicing without
compassion
curiosity
tolerance
and sincerity.

Now that you have crafted your exciting new life vision, it’s time to plot your journey out on a map. In this section we will delve into the strategic aspects of "atomic" habit formation, exploring the significance of attitude, planning, timing, environmental considerations, and more. This section also introduces practices for cultivating crucial qualities you’ll rely on as you explore your own mysterious and fascinating inner landscape - curiosity, compassion, and especially focus.
03
Follow the Path of Breath
“A journey of a thousand miles doesn’t begin with one step. It begins with an exhale.” ~ Me
In this section, you will perform a series of simple breath assessments to determine what type of breather you are. These handy little breathing tests are powerful tools you'll use for life. We'll also work this week on breath and movement practices that strengthen the body and how breathing can address your back pain.

Learn the Language
If you want to shift what is happening in your body and mind, you’ll want to learn to speak the language. Your anxiety or mind fog won’t go away just by talking to your brain. Your digestion and elimination won’t regulate because you tell it to (in English or whatever sie sprechen). The breath is the language your body and mind will respond to. This section offers key phrases you’ll want to know so you can get what you need as you travel your inner landscape.
