A short YouTube #Shorts conversation where two people recount a first-time breathwork experience. They describe discovering personal barriers (filtering, discomfort in crowds), arriving at a session where Rachel greets attendees with hugs, and a transformative, 'soul-to-soul' connection felt during a hug.
I had never experienced breathwork before and the only thing I can equate it to is when I signed up for jiu jitsu thinking it was taekwondo. And I get in and I'm like, woo, this is not the same. And I knew that there was like a hitch in my voice and that I was filtering, but I didn't realize how much it.
Actually was impacting like my whole life. And I'm very uncomfortable in big people, like around a lot of people.
And I walked.
In that first day.
And Rachel was at the door giving hugs and I'm like, these people are huggers. Like, I don't want to be a hug. And I.
Didn'T realize that's because like I was separating myself.
I'm never gonna.
Forget the moment you hugged me. It was like the first time in my whole life I've experienced like that soul to soul connection with somebody that.
