ABOUT JAMES

My personal health journey

My work has always reflected my own healing—the challenges I’ve faced, my journey of recovery, and observations and the insights I’ve gleaned along the way.

In my late teens and early 20s, I struggled with a range of chronic health issues that most commonly manifested in the form of chronic pain and chronic fatigue. At the age of 18, I was dealing with persistent headaches, brain fog, and fatigue, that at times left me all but bed-bound.

After years of searching for solutions, a physiotherapist introduced me to the mind-body connection, and through meditation, my chronic pain disappeared, and my physical health massively improved too.

This led me on a journey of deep exploration—first seeking, then training, and eventually teaching. From breathwork to nervous system health—and increasingly some Jungian psychology too.

Along the way, I have launched my own breathwork app, run various courses and supported many 1:1 clients.
