In this episode, Natalie Calzadilla interviews Kathy Rivera, an expert on breathwork. They discuss the difference between pranayama and breathwork healing, the safety concerns and resistance that can arise during breathwork sessions, and the transformative power of breathwork in promoting self-love.

In this conversation, Kathy Rivera discusses the dangers of spiritual bypassing and the importance of trauma-informed practices. She explains what it means to be trauma-informed and emphasizes the need for consent and safety in trauma-informed spaces. Kathy also explores the use of breathwork to address generational trauma and reclaim heritage. She highlights the importance of redefining beauty standards and shares advice for those interested in getting started with breathwork. Kathy addresses skeptics and critics and offers guidance for individuals who want to become breathwork practitioners.
