Healing the Nervous System Through Breathwork w/ April Wyett
In this episode of Real Chat with Kat, I sit down with April Wyett for a powerful conversation about coming back to self and learning how to be present in a fast-paced, constantly “on” world. We explore how the body holds trauma—and how it can also release it through Biodynamic Breathwork & Trauma Release. April breaks down how breath, movement, sound, and emotional expression support nervous system regulation and emotional intelligence. We also talk about “pendulation,” a practice that helps the nervous system safely move between stress and safety so real healing can occur without re-traumatization. This episode is a reminder that even small pauses can shift everything.
