Of flashy trees and fires.
Add Breath, April
The first quarter of 2024 is already in the rearview mirror! Can you believe it? Maybe it feels like it flew by in a blur, or perhaps it stretched on forever.
Either way, take a moment to acknowledge yourself. You made it through!
The Poui trees are showing us how to be art - a thousand thousand tiny flowers, barely any green, the most improbable flourishing beauty.
A couple of weeks ago in the peak of a hot dry spell, just as the poui were bursting into colour, a bushfire came down the hill from the main road into my 92-year-old Great-Uncle-Neighbour's property.
Fire Services never turned up - despite repeated calls about a large fire that threatened the electrical lines along a main road.
I found myself jumping into firefighter mode - once upon a time, I went to fire school. (Shout-out to the folks at Disaster City, Texas A&M, College Station Texas.)
These days I prefer to keep the fire metaphorical.
Here at Mindset Breath, we're dedicated to helping driven, successful, mid-career professionals like you ignite, powerfully navigate the realities and burn through challenges that arise in the pursuit of mastery - including anxiety, burnout, and grief.
“Big breath!†as a teacher of mine would say. Let's exhale and breathe into the next part of the year with renewed energy and intention.

I’ve been thinking, teaching and writing about:
- The power of breathwork for fostering balance, health, joy, and ease.?
- Why 478 breathing is a terrible idea if you manage anxiety and What to do instead.
- Hurkle-Durkling (It’s a thing, thank me later).
I have a (very) few spots left for one-on-one coaching this quarter. Book here.
This month’s free group online breath session is on April 29, 7 pm AST.?
April’s session is about Breathing For Sleeping. I look forward to you joining us.
Let’s get rested and ready to breathe life into the possibilities that lie ahead.
With Breath and Fire…
