Breathwork for Life

I did Soma breathwork for three months straight and at some point, I just was over my chronic pain

Quick summary

After nearly two years of chronic pain from a car accident, Hayley committed to daily Soma breathwork sessions in her parking lot. Three months later, her pain vanished completely—along with irritability, sleep issues, and more.

My experience with Soma was amazing, I have been able to heal myself after a car accident, I was knocked out by the airbags, had cervical radiculopathy and impingement syndrome on my shoulder. I had been doing all the normal Western therapies, not getting better. My arm was asleep in pain. I could not raise it about 45 degrees by the end of the day. I was in pain so I was looking for anything at this point. I did Soma breathwork for three months straight, I would leave the office at lunchtime in between patients, go to the parking lot in a park, and do it. And at some point, I just was over the pain. I had all my pains gone. I felt like superwoman that I just was able to do this. And it had been almost two years of this chronic issue from being knocked out by the airbags. My list of what Soma's done: I'm happy. There are not many things that ever get me down anymore. The little things that used to irritate me, they're gone. I sleep better. I have more energy. My sexual drive has gone to the roof. I have to bring that up because that's the circulation flow that you're promoting into your body. My skin is clean. My hair grew. It's just a full body, physical, spiritual and emotional transformation. And I could talk about it for hours
