- Step-by-step appendix: cyclical sighing and the Breath of Life exercise
The book Nick wishes he'd had
For the person who's done enough work to know it's not finished.
Nick TNT grew up bouncing through 13 schools, expelled by 10th grade, addicted by his teens. Multiple attempts at sobriety. Four years sober, and then a wall.
Breathwork was the missing piece. Modeled on the Big Book of AA, Breath of Life draws on twelve-step teachings, ancient spiritual wisdom, modern science, and lived experience.
A genre-defying, holistic recovery handbook that synthesizes every paradigm into one.
"A must-read for anyone struggling with the cycles of addiction."Dr. Nicholas Kardaras, bestselling author of Glow Kids
