Welcome to this week’s episode! We are learning about using breathwork as a tool to move through creative blocks. I am joined by Stephanie Pereira-Lima, an Intuitive Healer, Soulful Leader, Breathwork Guide, and Reiki Master. She works intimately with spiritual women & emerging lightworkers in awakening their soul purpose so they can create a life that is led by their soul and rooted in freedom, abundance and joyful service.

What’s in This Episode:
Steph first gives us her definition of creativity, which she believes is, “the physical manifestation of someone's soul essence.” I ask her to explain to us deeper about what she means. “I see us as not just human, but I see every individual as a soul as well, meaning the part of us that is very much all knowing, all loving… it's really that light that they have. It's that sense of joy, that sense of love.”
Steph shares her creative process and how she drops into flow to find her center which may include: Stretching, movement like ecstatic dance, changing up her environment, and using time blocking in order to create a container to create. She dives into what it means to integrate masculine and feminine energies (all human have both) in the creative process to create containers in order to create flow and structure.
Steph talks about how transformational breathwork is. She defines it, “Breathwork is an active meditation practice. We are dynamically engaging our breath in a rhythmic pattern. And I specifically guide, it's called a three part breath. You breathe through the mouth the entire time… a lot of people describe it as 10 years of talk therapy in one session, and just that process of hyper oxygenating the body, we're tapping into the subconscious mind.”
