Nicole Carpenter is a certified instructor at Buteyko Clinic International

Nicole Carpenter is a breathwork educator, breathing coach, and movement instructor. Nicole works with people who have a range of breathing goals such as improving personal fitness and sleep or reducing chronic pain, breathlessness, asthma symptoms, or anxiety.

Nicole enjoys helping others access their breathing, understand how their breathing pattern differs from the optimal “functional breathing pattern”, and ways they can slowly shift their breathing habits overtime. The more efficient your breathing pattern is, the easier it is to breathe and perform your best.

Nicole can also help you identify self-regulation tools to better understand your body so that you can be your best self. Your breath is a connection between your unconscious and conscious self. By increasing your awareness of your breath, you can better understand what’s happening in your body. By intentionally controlling or altering your breath, you can help your unconscious-self become more in line with your conscious-self intentions. Through movement and action, you can help direct your body and settle your mind.

Our breathing patterns need to be able to return to a relaxed and calm state so that your body can heal, recover, rest, and rejuvenate. We want to be able to ride the emotional roller coaster of life with grace and ease. Sometimes due to life, our breathing gets stuck in a less relaxed state. In order to relax, we need to help our body figure out how to relax. Relaxation comes from the body, not the mind.
