“Jim Morningstar was one of the first therapists in America to understand and explore the connection between mind, body, breath, and emotions. His approach, called Therapeutic Breathwork, has proven to be extremely effective in the field of trauma recovery, especially in cases where prescription medications and talk therapy have failed. His model of the six major breathing patterns and their link to basic body themes is truly unique and nothing short of brilliant. This chapter alone makes his newest book Break Through with Breathwork a must-read for every breathworker...

...Both professionals and nonprofessionals alike will be struck by Jim Morningstar’s clarity, involvement, and attention to detail, which is such an integral part of healing. A must-read! I highly recommend it.”
