When you think of sleep apnea. . . what comes to mind?

  • CPAP machines.

  • Stopped breathing during sleep.

  • Abrupt awakenings accompanied by gasping.

  • Awakening with a dry mouth or sore throat.

  • Excessive daytime sleepiness.

  • Snoring.

  • Morning headaches

  • Difficulty concentrating during the day.

How about grinding teeth while you sleep?

Oftentimes it is the intense gnashing sound of the upper and lower teeth, or intense jaw gripping.

Most people (including your clients) don't understand how their body impacts their breathing

There is often an assumption that a client doesn’t want to do the work needed to make the change.

As a result, most people get a diagnosis and the conversation stops.

A CPAP machine or a mouthpiece is provided.

And while both are effective and supportive (there is truly nothing wrong with either), so much change can occur if we can also address the body and how the body breathes.

It is possible to move beyond the belief that “this is just my body.”

Your body can change.

Your breathing can change.

You can rest deeply and fully again.  

Your breathing is impacted by your body’s mobility and stability.

When you inhale air into your body, your rib cage is supposed to expand, and your diaphragm and pelvic floor are meant to move downward.

On exhale the opposite is meant to happen.

However, if the muscles or connective tissue around your ribs, neck, abdomen or pelvis are limited, so will the mechanics of your breathing.

You won’t breathe as well as you could.

Not only can this impact the position of your airway, and in turn impact night time teeth grinding and sleep apnea, it can also can limit your ability to digest food, and feel calm or resilient.

The practice is simple and straightforward

There are 3 key things to learn:

  • Understand the Anatomy of your Body as It Relates to Breathing: Knowledge is power. Plain and simple. Learn from me, a biomechanics expert, along with my dentist who has decades of experience helping people with airway issues.
  • Practice: Intervene with specific exercises and techniques. Become familiar with how you breathe and how you can implement change.
  • Evaluation: See what changes you experience how they change

How I Help

I am Susi Hately. I have 25+ years helping health professionals and entrepreneurs reduce and eradicate physical pain. My very effective approach combines my BSc. Kinesiology with therapeutic applications of biomechanics and yoga, breath and yoga nidra. I have both skills and tools to support people who want change through a kind, compassionate, gentle yet direct approach.

Two of my programs have been studied at the University level, and my ability to bridge the gaps between Western Medicine and Eastern Practices has enabled me to be a trusted resource for professionals and clients seeking an integrative approach to healing and recovery.

I run an IAYT 800 hour accredited yoga therapy certification for health professionals who want an evidence based but also integrative approach to healing – and my grads are awesome with the results their clients experience.

  • I see what works and doesn’t

  • I continually evolve to help bring about better and better results

  • I teach my graduates how to grow yoga businesses they love

I want to help you grow your skill and ability to help others harness the simple power of their breath.

Meet my Co-Instructors

Dr. Larry Stanleigh

Dr. Larry Stanleigh is my dentist. Not only is he brilliant at helping people with jaw, head, neck tension, he is a very funny man who is also highly skilled at teaching.

His primary focus in dentistry today is the examination, diagnosis and treatment of orofacial pain and TMJ dysfunction primarily from trauma, but general practice dentistry is still the foundation upon which he is am able to do everything else.

Dr. Mona Warner

Dr. Mona is in the business of helping people grow in the direction of their health and purpose and the approach she uses is personalized to the individual she is working with, geared towards self-empowerment. Dr. Mona's mission is to make the world a better place by helping people get healthier and happier - using timeless methods that are perfect for modern life.

Dr. Linda Bluestein

Dr. Linda Bluestein has been practicing medicine for over 20 years. As a physician anesthesiologist, she has a deep understanding of the airway and the implications of sleep apnea on cardiopulmonary function.

Dr. Linda has dedicated her life to treating those afflicted with hypermobility disorders, founded and host the podcast “Bendy Bodies with Hypermobility MD, and is the former co-host of the podcast “Hypermobility Happy Hour”.

Jeannie Di Bon

Jeannie Di Bon is a Movement Therapist based in London specializing in working with people with hypermobility, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and chronic pain. She has hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and rehabbed her body and mind from chronic pain.

She is originally trained in Pilates, and over the past decade, her research and study have gone on to encompass biomechanics, anatomy, neuroscience and pain management.

What others say about Susi

"Susi is an exceptional coach. If you want to work with one of the best, if you want to work with someone who really wants you to succeed, if you want to work with someone who truly walks the walk and talks the talk, work with Susi. She really knows what she is doing."
Loreen
"I was one of those teachers who thought pain was normal. After learning from Susi, I felt different - almost weird - because I had no pain."
Collette
"I’ve been practicing all the principles + after doing a 60-90 minute practices all week + moving w/ease + breath, I feel like I’ve just been moving + breathing, I don’t feel like I’ve “practiced.” Prior to this course usually something is hurting, strained, overused, but I’ve interpreted it as “I’ve worked out.” It’s just so strange to go thru my day + night “pain free” …..that I feel like I haven’t “done” anything….so my brain is catching up with the novelty that I can do a strong practice + not feel pain. AND I am making progress in areas where I was weak /tight/both or lacked mobility.”

What you will learn:

  • How to improve your breathing.
  • The relationship of your breathing, TMJ issues, Airway, Sleep Apnea, and Teeth Grinding.
  • The impact of hypermobility issues on TMJ issues, Airway, Sleep Apnea, and Teeth Grinding.
  • How digestion impacts the size of your tongue, which impacts how it sits in your mouth and can interfere with airway, and how to change it.
  • The relationship between breathing and better sleep.
  • The relationship between your breathing, pelvic floor function and your jaw/skull.
  • How to integrate the principles into any rehabilitation and/or medical process.

This training is for you if:

  • You want to help yourself of your clients with breathing and you want to be able to get back to your practice with strength, fluidity, and ease. You are looking for a way that works.
  • You want less fluff and more therapeutic benefit, so you can recover and get on with living.
  • You are ready for some usable techniques and tools to change, harness, and channel your strengths.

This training is NOT for you if:

  • You don't think change is possible.
  • You only follow science-based evidence. Clinical studies are fascinating as they shed light and ask good questions. I see them as the start of a conversation, not the end.
  • Your schedule is packed from morning to night. If you’re already struggling to find the time to attend to your daily responsibilities, this may not be the right fit at this moment.
