Tools and Resources I Recommend
As a somatic practitioner, yoga teacher, and bodyworker, I often integrate supportive tools and resources into my sessions to enhance nervous system regulation, breath health, mobility, and overall well-being. Below are trusted items and media I personally use and recommend.
​
LifePro Vibration Plate
This is a versatile tool I use in-office and at home to support:
-
Nervous system regulation
-
Lymphatic circulation
-
Bone density and muscular engagement
​
Vibration platforms offer gentle, effective stimulation for the whole body and are especially useful when fatigue, low energy, or chronic conditions limit other forms of movement.
Explore the LifePro Vibration Plate.
​
Breathwork Resources
Breath is a gateway to nervous system balance. These tools support better breathing habits and awareness:
​
-
Advanced Buteyko Breathing App — This app supports breath retraining using science-backed
techniques to build COâ‚‚ tolerance, reduce anxiety, and improve energy and focus. I recommend
3 sessions per day using the app over the course of a month to experience the benefits and
establishing better breath practices.
​
Available for iOS and Android.
​
-
Othership YouTube Channel — Offers a wide variety of guided breath sessions to help with focus, release, energy, or calm.
Visit Othership on YouTube.​ Some of my favorites to start with:
​
-
Restoring Prana by Robin Rothenberg — A groundbreaking book that bridges yogic tradition with modern breath science. Rothenberg challenges common myths about deep breathing and over-breathing, and offers a clear, therapeutic framework rooted in Buteyko principles and yoga philosophy.
​​
Highly recommended for yoga practitioners, teachers, and anyone looking to understand the
science of breath on a deeper level.
