In today’s episode, Ryann takes you into the real heart of mindfulness — not the tidy, think-your-way-to-calm version — but the embodied, lived-in, messy human version. This episode is a grounding breath for anyone who feels stretched thin, rushed, overwhelmed, or stuck in their head.

This episode covers:

• Mindfulness is helpful, but mental awareness alone won’t ground you — true presence requires somatic awareness too.
• Most overwhelm isn’t a mindset problem; it’s a nervous system one — especially for women conditioned to live in their minds.
• A yoga teaching reframed everything: it’s not about “ascending” spiritually, but descending fully into your body.
• Your childhood wiring (ages 0–7) influences today’s rushing, reacting, and difficulty staying present.
• A simple hand-on-heart + belly breath practice can expand your sense of time and help you drop back into your body in seconds.
• A reminder that healing isn’t about being perfect — it’s about being present.

In this powerful live conversation from the Rise & Flourish event, guest host Danielle Neufeld sits down with Brooke Musial, founder of Musical Breathwork, to explore how our bodies are instruments of intuition — and how sound, breath, and play can help us move through fear, find flow, and reconnect to joy.

Brooke shares her philosophy of embodied intuition, explaining how the body’s electromagnetic field, breath rhythm, and vagal tone shape the way we experience life. She reminds us that something as simple as singing while doing the dishes can regulate the nervous system, boost mood, and bring us back to presence.

This episode is a soulful reminder that healing doesn’t have to be heavy — it can sound like laughter, movement, and song.

✨ Topics we cover:
-The body as an instrument of intuition
-How fear creates stagnation (in body and life)

-Vagal nerve stimulation through sound
