How can breathwork transform your life?

During a breathwork session, I will lead you through a deeper exploration of your body, energy and intuition through conscious circular breathing. This type of breathing unlocks an altered state of consciousness, which allows you to access the subconscious. This is where somatic healing and real change can take place. Some of the most common benefits of regularly practicing breathwork include...

- Clearing emotional blocks and stagnant energies stored deep within the body

- Releasing unresolved emotions and trauma

- Increasing circulation and oxygen levels through your body

- Activating different areas of the brain to create new neural pathways

- Developing a deeper sense of self-awareness and internal perception

Testimonials

Home: Testimonials

Alexa’s breathwork class was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. What I gained that day is priceless. At the end of the session, I felt trauma that had been trapped in my body leave, right out of my fingertips. It was an energetic shift that felt like years of therapy. I’ve never had an experience quite like that, and I cannot wait to take another class from Alexa. I’ve had the same career for 27 years, and it requires repetitive motion. After the breathwork, I felt less physical pain in my body than I have felt in years. Breathwork will be a part of my life moving forward, and I am so happy that Alexa is my teacher. - Jamie

From the moment Alex and I met, we both knew this love was different. But being together wasn’t easy at first. Our attachment styles, our timing, and our resistance to receiving this kind of love was unfamiliar. It brought up so much to work through. It took us both time, space, and a lot of individual healing to come back together in the way we have now. In a place of safety. Of wholeness. We came back together when we were finally ready to receive one another fully.

For me, the biggest part of that healing process was facing my fear of being alone. I knew I had to work through this fear head-on, so I committed to a year of celibacy. That time became one of the most challenging and healing seasons of my life.

I used it to nourish myself, to explore my joy but most importantly, I went deep within myself, within my body to figure out why I never fully felt safe in a romantic relationship. And once I did… once I was able to create that safety within myself… that’s when Alex returned to my life.

I have cultivated a unique process with the use of breathwork and somatic therapy to create that safety. Within yourself. So that safety can permeate into all of your relationships moving forward. So your nervous system can have the capacity to call in a secure and healthy relationship.

If you’d like to hear more about this process and you’re currently working on calling in more safety, security and deepening in your romantic relationships, comment SAFETY below and I’ll send you more details.

I wrote this song two years ago, just after Alex and I got back together. I had just been through my deeply ceremonial year of celibacy. The year I realized I didn’t actually love myself as much as I thought I did… It was a very uncomfortable realization but it blasted me open to the truth. That love can feel better. That love can feel safer. And in that safety, a deepening can occur. With yourself. With your romantic partners. You can only love somebody to the extent and capacity that you can love yourself. And realization of that truth is set me free.

For so long, I felt this pull to seek love and validation outside of myself, as if I needed someone else to tell me I was worthy, lovable, or “enough.” I thought I needed a relationship to fill that space inside, and I didn’t realize the real work was in healing the parts of me that felt empty without it.

Taking this time to heal and have that time alone was life-changing. I faced the old beliefs, the patterns and the wounds that had been running the show for so long. Gradually, I learned to love the sacredness that came with being with myself. To feel safe in the love that was already there, within me. This work is what allowed me to eventually show up in a relationship feeling whole, safe, and truly connected.

If you’re ready to let go of anxious attachment and create a love that feels safe and secure, I would love to lead you through the unique process that I’ve birthed in the last couple of years. From my own experience. Both personally and as a somatic breathwork practitioner. We will venture into the body to create safety. We’ll dive deep to build the kind of love that starts with you.

If you’d like to learn more about my 3 month container starting in December, comment LOVE below.

I’ll send you a link to book a no pressure call. We will get clarity on where you’re at on your journey. I would love to support you on your journey to create safety, presence and security in your romantic relationships. Talk soon. 🤍

Here are 5 ways setting boundaries with your family members can improve your love life and heal your anxious attachment style.

1️⃣ Setting boundaries creates safety in your nervous system and begins the process of self trust. Telling your body, I’ve got you. I can keep you safe. You’re reprogramming your somatic system with the people closest to you, the people who contributed to that dysregulation in the first place. This is how we get to the root issue. ❤️

2️⃣ Setting boundaries with family helps you find out who you are as an individual and what your needs actually are, especially if you grew up in a codependent or enmeshed household.

3️⃣ Setting boundaries and taking care of your needs helps you feel seen, heard and understood. Building that self worth and self trust within yourself to call in a safe and secure partner.

4️⃣ It builds your trust muscle when it comes to discernment. Discernment to know what you actually need or want from a relationship and the will power to walk away if it is not a full yes in your body.

5️⃣ This is great practice in speaking up for yourself in a way that feels regulated, healthy and safe.

Disclaimer: this is for boundary setting with family members who are not toxic or narcissistic in nature. I will post another video on how to approach boundaries in these situations.

If you’d like to learn more tools to call in a partnership that feels safe and secure, join my free masterclass this Friday, October 25th at 11am CST.

Inside this masterclass training you are going to learn:

✅ How to better identify your needs so you can set boundaries with confidence, getting crystal clear clarity on what kind of partnership you actually want.

✅ How to regulate your nervous system during times of discomfort so you can have a greater capacity for secure, healthy love.

✅ How to identify the blocks that perpetuate a cycle of calling in relationships that aren’t reciprocal

#love #healthyboundaries #conflictresolution #holidayseason #family #anxiousattachmentstyle #secureattachment #avoidantattachment

I was deep in an embodiment practice this weekend led by the magical @iamalorarose and a deep grief took over me. I started to sob and just kept repeating to myself “I’m so sorry” over and over again. I was saying sorry to myself. For being that critical parent that felt so visceral and so familiar in my body. That parent that made me feel like I had to perform in order to receive love.

I’ve gotten a lot better with this performing aspect of myself that my body once deemed “safe” and now use it as a guide, a gift… To show up. To hold myself accountable. But sometimes that little girl needs to be reminded that no matter what, she is safe. She is loveable.

She is loveable when she needs to rest, when she needs to set boundaries and even when she “fails.”

Here’s the thing, you can’t shame yourself into submission, healing or loveability. Healing your nervous system means letting the past teach you, not define you. You’re not broken, you’re just conditioned by the experiences that taught your body to protect itself at the time and it is possible to shift from survival mode to a place of safety.

Every trigger is information. It’s an opportunity. To set boundaries. To go into the body. To soften. By learning to regulate your nervous system, you can release old patterns and open yourself to love that feels safe and calm. Even if it may not feel familiar.

Remember, you are worthy of love and it is possible to soften into the body. To create safety. To create secure love.

If you’d like to learn more about rewiring your nervous system to receive safe and a secure love, join my free masterclass, Love Rewired on October 25th at 11am CST.

I’ll be going over the methodology I used to heal my nervous system to attract in safe and secure love. I’ll also be sharing 5 tools you can take home with you and start implementing TODAY.

The healthiest romantic relationship I’ve ever had.

In order to regulate your nervous system, practice healthy boundary setting and nonviolent conflict resolution tactics. The holidays have been a perfect time to challenge myself to go within and regulate. These are tools that I’ve treasured and taken with me to call in my partner and heal my anxious attachment style.

It’s my birthday today and as I take my 33rd trip around the sun, I’m here just reflecting on so much. How grateful I am for the beautiful parts, the painful parts, the parts that call for my immense patience.

33.

PATIENCE.

One of the most prominent themes that have come up for me as I’ve reflected on the past year.

I’m in a time in my life where I’m calling in more patience, more grounded energy. Spaciousness to dance, to be in nature, to explore, to play and to be patient as I build everything I’m working on. To not guilt myself. Great things take time. I am right on time and I grateful to you all as we traverse on this crazy journey that is life.

There has been so much incredible change that has happened in my life recently and it’s continuing to shift and change in the best possible way. (Stay tuned) I am so grateful for my tools and my capacity to hold all of this change in my nervous system but oooofff…. Does it require some patience as it all integrates into place.

33… I have a feeling there are some more epic adventures coming soon. 😂

Let’s rock n roll. 🤪

Breathwork is more than a healing modality, it’s a tool, a gateway to greater transformation for your clients. This is something I really want to emphasize, in my business and in the way you approach your business. How do you provide your magic? Your gifts?

You’re providing more than a modality. You’re providing transformation! What medicine do you have to share with your clients and how can you interweave breathwork into that magic that already exists within you, within your business. Maybe you’re still trying to birth that business into creation.

My breathwork facilitator training is about way more than teaching breathwork. In this container, you will learn the modality of breathwork BUT more importantly, you will be given the tools to succeed as an entrepreneur. As a healer. So you can create a business that is sustainable. That takes care of you so you can take care of others.

The more you hone in on your gifts and the specific transformation that you want to provide, that’s when crystal clear clarity comes in. A sense of ease, play and passion that will permeate throughout your business and attract the clients that you’re meant to serve. And that benefits everybody!

I’ve added an additional 3 month mastermind after our 6 weeks together in this training so you’ll have more time, more support to integrate, interweave breathwork into your business. Into your retreats. Into your life.

The training starts on Monday, September 16th. If you’d like to join, enrollment ends on Friday! Comment TRANSFORMATION below and we can hop on a no pressure call to discuss if this training is right for you and where you’re at in your business.

Can’t wait and sending y’all so much love today.

Let’s talk about integration.

I spent so much of my life working harder, doing as much as I could. I was so in my masculine energy that I would feel guilty if I took a break to rest. If I just took time to be. It wasn’t healthy. I’ve had this nasty habit of being hard on myself no matter what I pursued or put my mind to. It’s what has motivated me to succeed. To achieve.

So in 2020, when I realized all of this, I started going ham on my healing journey. Ayahuasca, shadow work, ego death level mushroom journeys, intense breathwork on the daily. AND while I was moving through some very deep trauma, I was forcing myself to stay in a positive mindset. It was a lot…

But I was determined to really heal. That determination is all I knew and got me to where I wanted to go in the past right?

WRONG.

I was using the same trauma response with my healing that got me into this mess. I was trying to strong arm myself to feel better. To find balance. It was the opposite of what I was trying to achieve.

EASE.
FLOW.
ACCEPTANCE.

So as I’ve moved through this world of healing, I’ve discovered just how important integration is. When we do deep healing work, the true healing comes after. How do you integrate the lessons you learn from these experiences into your life? Into your relationships? Into the quiet moments when you’re with yourself?

There is a certain maturity and patience that I’ve learned and continue to learn on the journey and integration is the most important part.

Breathwork is a powerful tool. POWERFUL. But if you don’t take time to integrate your experience, it’s not productive. You get stuck in a healing loop. Of doing more. Being more. Perpetually climbing up that hill.

This is the most important lesson I’ve learned on this journey and continue to learn. This is a huge part of what we will go over in my Breathwork Facilitator Training starting September 16th.

One of the greatest gifts breathwork ever gave me was the clarity to realize I was seeking external validation... from EVERYTHING. My relationships, my career, my appearance... the rabbit hole goes deep.

This clarity was the catalyst that incentivized me to leave acting. I realized how much of my happiness and self worth I was putting in my career. Especially in a career that was all about external validation. Acting was feeding a void… but that void was not good for me. It was not true. It was not authentic. At least not anymore. So… I left. I left a dream that I had spent half a lifetime pursuing. It was scary. It was empowering. But mostly importantly, it was true. It was authentic. I needed to remove myself.

I had a similar experience when I decided to take a year of celibacy. Yes, this was all at the same time. 😂 Breathwork really wanted to shake things up for me. This year of celibacy was intentional. I had to learn to give myself love and validation. Without the external forces I had clung to for most of my adult life. This was in my career and my love life.

And let me tell you… it was the most intense year of my life BUT immensely healing and I’ve never felt more powerful. I tell you my story to show you how healing and transformational breathwork can be. It’s truly life changing. It changed my life.

This is why I teach this modality as passionately as I do. This was the key to true healing for me.

If you’d like to hear more about how breathwork has changed my life and the life of my clients, you can watch the replay of my free masterclass in my bio.

Breathwork allows you to hold a greater capacity of discomfort.

This is where the magic lies. For real change. For real growth. Why? Because life can be very uncomfortable and changing deeply rooted patterns and beliefs isn’t easy… it’s UNCOMFORTABLE.

When you’re moving through emotions that feel unfamiliar or you’re in the process of calling things into your life that you’ve never had such as financial stability or a secure partnership, your body can confuse these things with not feeling safe.

If you grew up in dysfunction or financial scarcity, what may feel uncomfortable could actually be very healthy, stable and grounding for you. This is the partner who feels “boring” because there isn’t “passion” or they’re too emotionally available. Or the job opportunity that presents itself but you don’t want to mess it up and don’t feel deserving of it, so you sabotage it before it even begins.

Breathwork helps you feel through the trauma, the grief and discomfort that may be blocking you from creating space for what you truly desire. In your heart. In your soul.

It gives you a greater capacity to hold this discomfort so you can pass through the storm with more grace, more trust, more clarity. AND that is when the magic can reveal itself on the other side.

If you’re curious about walking this path and embracing discomfort instead of running away from it to radically transform your life, I’ll be leading a free masterclass this Thursday at 11am CST.

Two years with my Boopie in Sedona. This was such a magical trip to celebrate our anniversary. Sedona sure is special.

During this trip, Alex was able to finish his personal journal that he started two years ago, just before we reconnected. He dubbed this journal his last Georgia chapter.

While he finished scribbling some of the last pages, he was gracious enough to read me a few from when we first got back together in 2022. And ooffff… did I shed a couple tears. We were able to unpack so much. We were able to heal so much in these last couple years and we just sat on the bed in deep gratitude for our relationship. It really was a miracle that we found our way back to each other.

I’ve never felt more secure or more solid in this partnership. We have our issues, just like anybody but I’ve never been so proud of the way we’ve navigated the hard stuff. The financial stress, the emotional ups and downs. Learning to relate in a deeply intimate and radically honest manner.

You are the love of my life and my greatest teacher. I love you honey.

If you’d like to learn more about our journey together and the tools I’ve used to get to a place of security in romantic relationships, you can join my free masterclass this Thursday at 11am CST. We will be discussing how breathwork has transformed my life and the life of my clients.

I can’t emphasize enough how important it is to niche your offering and to be unapologetically yourself as you do it.

With anything you do in life, the more authentic you are, the more unapologetically yourself that YOU ARE. It attracts a certain magnetism that is palpable and it will draw your people to you.

I’ve seen it time and time again, with myself, with my clients. You can tell when somebody’s heart and soul is in it. You can also tell when something feels off, phony, or lacks substance, direction…

Further niching your offering, whether your incorporating breathwork, sound healing, or any other modality is always going to narrow in on who your people are.

So ask yourself these questions:

What medicine do you have to share?

What is your story and how do you desire being held in these spaces?

These are SUPER important questions and they are questions we will dive deeper into during our 6 weeks together in my breathwork facilitator training starting this September. Yes, you will learn about breathwork and how to incorporate it into your existing offering BUT you will also learn how to integrate it in a way that feels authentic to you. So you can sell out your offerings, so you can have longevity in this space AND do it in a way that feels good. That feels authentic.

Facilitating breathwork has been a deep and triggering journey into self-discovery and empowerment but it has granted me a greater capacity to hold discomfort. And in holding that discomfort, so many beautiful things have been able to manifest in my life and in my business.

Some other unexpected outcomes that have unfolded along the way:

1️⃣ Embracing my Authentic Voice:
Becoming a facilitator has not only strengthened my ability to guide breathwork but has given me the confidence to find and express myself in ways that feel authentically true to me.

2️⃣ Trusting my Intuition:
The practice of holding space has honed my intuition and heightened my ability to sense energy in a way that… well… it’s changed my life. Leaning full force into my intuition has been a game-changer in both my personal and professional relationships. I move through the world with more trust. More ease.

3️⃣ Mastering the Art of Boundaries:
My journey as a breathwork facilitator has taught me not only to hold space for others but, more importantly, MYSELF. Learning to establish and maintain healthy boundaries has been transformative, fostering a healthier relationship with both others and myself.

4️⃣ Navigating Conflict with Clarity:
Clear communication and conflict resolution have become second nature. The skills acquired in guiding breathwork sessions have translated seamlessly into my personal life, making the navigation of conflicts smoother and more constructive.

5️⃣ Reclaiming my Power and Stepping Into New Spaces: Through this journey, I’ve identified areas where I was unknowingly giving away my power. Becoming a breathwork facilitator has been a powerful tool in reclaiming that power and discovering new spaces where I can confidently step into my authentic self.

If you’re curious about walking this path, I’ll be leading my next Breathwork Facilitator Training this September. For more info, comment JOURNEY below.

At the end of 2020, I took a year off of dating. I was celibate for a little over one year and it was one of the most beautiful, ceremonial, visceral experiences of my life.

I was so tired of attracting the same relationship into my life. Men who couldn’t meet me, who were avoidant, who had a glass ceiling for intimacy. BUT the thing is… they were just mirroring my own limitations.

I didn’t know how to meet my own needs and I was looking to a relationship to fill a void… so I took a radical approach.

I told myself: Alexa, you will not date until you are completely OK and content if you never find a partner. Your life will be so rich, so amazing that it won’t even matter if partnership doesn’t come together. You’ll know how to nourish yourself, to love yourself. Filling that love with friends, community, hobbies, passions, LIFE.

AND guess what… at the end of that year, the love of my life came in… I (unintentionally) called in a partner and it was SECURE and SAFE because I felt secure and safe within myself.

During that year, I used breathwork to find the clarity and strength I needed to go down this path. I used it to hold me as I went through the deep process of learning how to truly love myself, reparent myself and hold myself through the survival patterns I developed growing up.

I’ll be diving deeper into this journey with breathwork and the miraculous things it’s brought into my life and the life of my clients on August 28th at 11am CST.

This will be a free masterclass.

If you’d like to tune in, comment with the word PARTNER.
