Can you truly increase your performance, relieve your pain, and/or avoid surgery just by changing the way you breathe? My guest this week, Dr. Amy Novotny, physical therapist and founder of the PABR institute, teaches us the power of our breathing. She even walks us through a breathing exercise in the episode!

Here is some of what you will hear in this episode:
-Stress causes our muscles to tighten and contract
-Breathing is a skill you can learn to help yourself
-Pain is a signal from our body to the brain that something is out of position
-Our bodies hold on to emotions. It is important to work in conjunction with a mental health professional
-Experience a 4-step breathing exercise (29:00)
-Celebrate your whole womanhood by finding some quiet time
