Breathwork for Energy, Clarity, and Calm – The Practice That Changed My Life
If someone told me a few years ago that simply breathing could transform my energy, I probably would have laughed. But I’ve learned that sometimes the most impactful tools are the simplest. Breathwork became a lifeline for me during one of the hardest seasons of my life, and I want to share why it might just be the tool you need, too.

What Is Breathwork, Really?

At its core, breathwork is the practice of consciously controlling your breathing to influence your physical, emotional, and mental state. Unlike shallow, unconscious breaths—which often dominate when we’re stressed or overwhelmed—breathwork invites us to slow down, breathe deeply, and recalibrate.

The beauty of breathwork is that it’s accessible to everyone. It doesn’t require equipment, experience, or hours of time. And the effects can be felt almost immediately.

How Breathwork Showed Me the Path to Calm

I remember one particularly difficult morning. I woke up feeling irritable and emotionally drained, with a to-do list that felt endless. Instead of pushing through like always, I decided to try something new. I sat down on my mat, closed my eyes, and started a simple breathing pattern I had recently learned. Slowly, I inhaled for a count of four, held my breath for four counts, and exhaled slowly for six counts.

By the end of that short session, something had shifted. The tension in my shoulders had softened. My mind, once racing, felt quieter. It didn’t fix all my problems, but it gave me the clarity and energy to move forward with my day.

Quick Breathwork Exercise You Can Try

This exercise is one I recommend to anyone who’s feeling drained or overwhelmed:
  1. Find a quiet space where you can sit comfortably. Close your eyes and relax your shoulders.
  2. Place one hand on your belly and one hand on your chest.
  3. Breathe in deeply through your nose for a count of 4, letting your belly expand.
  4. Hold the breath for 4 counts.
  5. Slowly exhale through your mouth for a count of 6, feeling your body relax.
Repeat this cycle for 5-10 minutes. Notice how your shoulders feel lighter, your mind less cluttered. Breathwork allows you to reset, re-center, and reconnect, no matter what’s happening around you.

The Shift Breathwork Can Create

Practicing breathwork isn’t about perfection. It’s a gentle invitation to pause, reconnect, and reset. Whether it’s your morning ritual, a mid-day pick-me-up, or an evening wind-down, your breath is always available to guide you back to calm. If you’re curious to deepen your practice, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

Meet Brenda Di Bari

 
Hi, I’m Brenda, and I’m so glad you’re here.

My story is one of transformation, resilience, and rediscovery. Life as I knew it shifted dramatically in 2011 when I lost my husband of 21 years. Overnight, the roles that defined me—wife, mom, and business co-owner—were rewritten. Suddenly, I found myself navigating life as a solo parent, rebuilding my identity from the ground up, and asking the difficult question, "Who am I now?"

That chapter was one of my hardest, but it became the foundation for the work I do today. My turning point came when I began working with a business coach. I wasn’t looking for a career; I was looking for clarity, direction, and a way to rediscover myself. That experience didn’t just guide me through, it transformed how I saw myself, my purpose, and my future. It lit a spark in me. I realized I wanted to help others experience the same kind of breakthrough—to uncover their potential and reignite their passions.

By 2019, I answered that calling, becoming a Core Energy  life coach. Earning multiple accreditations, including being a board-certified Master Health Coach, I began guiding clients toward profound transformation. Along the way, I discovered the incredible power of 9D Breathwork—work that not only heals but uncovers the deep possibilities within us. This practice, alongside other holistic methods, has become a key element of my coaching today.

My approach is rooted in the understanding that true transformation requires looking at every part of who you are. Together, we examine all aspects of your existence—what you eat, how you move your body, the kind of self-talk that runs through your mind, and the energy you bring into the world. I help you uncover limiting beliefs, many of which are hidden shackles acquired over years of conditioning, and we overwrite those narratives. By freeing you from these constraints, we build a strong foundation for lasting change—one that transforms you at every level of being.

This isn’t a surface-level process. Through tools like 9D Breathwork and Core Energy Coaching, I help you dig deep into the patterns that shape how you think, feel, and act. Together, we explore how your thoughts, emotions, and habits interact, rewiring your brain to lay new neural pathways for permanent, life-changing results. This kind of transformation isn’t just about achieving goals—it’s about uncovering who you truly are and stepping into a life that aligns completely with your values, purpose, and vision.
What sets my work apart is my belief in radical, holistic transformation. This isn’t a quick fix or temporary solution—it’s a full realignment of mind, body, and energy. Whether we’re addressing the stories that hold you back, your relationship with yourself, or how you nourish and move your body, every piece connects to create the life you’ve dreamed of but weren’t sure was possible.

Of course, my path hasn’t been without challenges. Balancing life as a solo parent while building my business came with its share of sleepless nights and moments of doubt. But those experiences taught me resilience, resourcefulness, and the importance of unwavering purpose—lessons I carry into every coaching session. They’ve also shaped my mission to meet you exactly where you are, guiding you to reclaim the extraordinary life you’re meant to live.
The most powerful lesson I’ve learned—in my own life and through my work with clients—is that transformation begins with awareness and clarity. When you’re clear on what you truly want and connect deeply with your “why,” the possibilities are limitless. By examining every layer of your life, we’re able to dream boldly, rewrite your inner script, and create a vision of the future that is truly free of limits.

If you’re feeling stuck, searching for meaning, or simply wondering what’s next, I want you to know there is a path forward. A life aligned with your purpose, values, and true essence is within reach. I know this because I’ve walked that path, and now it’s my mission to help others find theirs.

The life you’ve been imagining is closer than you think. It starts with one brave decision—to say yes to yourself.

Thank you for stopping by and getting to know a little about me. I’d love to connect and hear your story. 

Together, we can chart the next chapter of your extraordinary life.
