In our fast-paced world, it’s easy to overlook one of the most accessible tools we all have: our breath. On the latest episode of the Elevated Conversations Podcast, we sit down with wellness pioneer Rebecca Kordecki, whose mission has been to help individuals become the “boss of their own happy” through the power of breathwork. Drawing from decades of experience in fitness, wellness and life coaching, Rebecca sheds light on how harnessing breath can open pathways to healing and deeper self-connection.
Why Breathwork, and Why Now?
Rebecca begins by reminding us that breath isn’t just a biological necessity—it’s a bridge between body, mind and spirit. When we tune into our breathing patterns, we can become more aware of hidden tensions, unprocessed emotions, or mental story-loops that keep us stuck. By bringing attention to the breath, we activate our body’s innate ability to self-regulate and heal.
A Unique Approach to Breathwork
One standout theme of the conversation is Rebecca’s “conscious circle of breath” technique (featured in her previous work) which involves a three-part pattern of inhale, hold or subtle pause, and exhale—crafted to help us cycle through conscious awareness and release. (In other interviews she’s described this pattern, and contrasted it with more familiar methods like the Wim Hof Method.Apple Podcasts+1)
She also breaks down four distinct breathwork modalities (each with different benefits): for grounding, for clearing emotional charge, for energizing, and for restoration. Understanding that variety helps you pick the style that matches your current state, rather than rigidly following one approach.
Healing Beyond the Physical
The conversation ventures beyond physical wellness to touch on emotional healing, mental clarity, and spiritual alignment. Rebecca discusses how breathwork has helped her—and her clients—release old narratives and reconnect with a deeper sense of self-worth. For example, when we feel “out of breath” metaphorically (anxiety, overwhelm), the breath becomes a tool to bring us back to center. Supporting this, breathwork is widely described in wellness literature as a way to tap into intuitive insight and inner calm.Facebook+1
Begin with just 5–10 minutes of focused breathing: inhale slowly, pause gently, exhale fully.
Notice what comes up during the breath cycle: emotion, physical tightness, mental chatter.
Choose the modality that fits your need: grounding if you’re anxious; restorative if you’re drained; clearing if you’re carrying emotional weight.
Make it consistent. Rebecca emphasises that even short, regular sessions offer cumulative transformation.
After the session, journal or reflect briefly: What shifted? What surfaced? How do I feel now?
This episode is a powerful reminder that healing doesn’t always require grand gestures or external interventions. Sometimes, the most profound shifts begin with simply breathing differently. Rebecca Kordecki’s insights make breathwork feel accessible, credible and deeply human. Whether you’re new to the world of conscious breathing or already have a practice, this conversation offers practical, compassionate guidance to deepen your journey.
Take a moment today—pause, breathe, and let this podcast invite you back into your own body, your own rhythm, your own healing.
