In this episode of The Pilates Lounge podcast, host Katie Crane chats with breathwork coach Jenny Cheifetz about the transformative power of breathwork and life coaching in fostering personal growth and healing. Jenny shares her unexpected journey into the world of breathwork, highlighting its benefits for managing stress, building emotional resilience, and creating balance in life. Together, Katie and Jenny explore the emotional and physical benefits of different breathwork techniques, the importance of letting go of limiting labels, and the empowering role of breath in self-regulation. Listeners are encouraged to embrace breathwork as a tool for healing, gaining clarity, and discovering themselves. About Jenny Cheifetz: Jenny Cheifetz is a life and breathwork coach at Jentle Coaching. She lives in New Hampshire with her husband, two teenage children, and two dogs. She energises busy, no-bullsh*t women to take back their power, reignite their passions, and step off the sidelines so that they can feel calm, confident, free, and excited about life. Jenny helps them learn strategies for managing stress and creating balance to avoid getting buried in work or family and actually having time for themselves. In addition to coaching and facilitating workshops, Jenny leads a community on Facebook, and she is the host of the Sideline Sisters podcast that showcases stories of badass, yet relatable women doing really cool stuff in the world. Key Takeaways: Breathwork helps busy women regain a sense of control and personal power. The pandemic has inspired many to focus on personal growth and change. Life coaching is about honouring each person’s unique journey without judgement. Breathwork allows for emotional release without needing to talk things through. Different breathing patterns can serve specific purposes and goals. Practising breathwork can enhance clarity, creativity, and emotional resilience. Physical responses to breathwork might include temperature changes or tingling sensations. Emotional responses to breathwork are deeply personal and can vary from person to person. Adding breathwork to your daily routine can lift your mood and improve overall well-being. A safe, supportive environment is crucial for effective breathwork practice. Journaling after breathwork can reveal valuable insights and hidden wisdom. Breathwork can improve sleep, digestion, and emotional health while deepening relationships and self-awareness. Everyone carries unprocessed experiences and trauma, and breathwork provides a gentle way to release them. Letting go of labels and identities can unlock greater potential and growth. Practical Tips for Integrating Breathwork: Start with simple techniques like box breathing or diaphragmatic breathing. Set aside a few minutes each day for focused breathing exercises. Approach each session with an open mind and no expectations. Use a journal to record any insights or experiences from your breathwork sessions. Explore resources or guided sessions to deepen your practice.

In this episode of The Pilates Lounge Podcast, Katie Crane sits down with mindset coach Julie Dempsey to dive into the importance of a positive growth mindset, especially in times of burnout— a challenge for both Pilates instructors and clients. They discuss powerful tools to shift self-belief, manage negative thoughts, and use visualisation and positive self-talk to drive personal and professional success. Julie shares her perspective on how essential it is for instructors to recognise their own growth, build a supportive environment, and embrace self-care without guilt. Katie and Julie also touch on the myth that busyness equals success, explaining why prioritising self-care and breaking down tasks can lead to healthier, more sustainable growth. Key Takeaways A positive growth mindset is a foundation for both personal and professional fulfilment. Most of us have a significant amount of negative thoughts each day, but we can train our brains to focus on the positive. Our upbringing influences our belief systems, but these can be reshaped with practice. Visualisation techniques and positive self-talk can enhance performance and improve outcomes. Recognizing and addressing physical signs of stress or negativity is the first step toward change. Reframing our thoughts can give us a brighter outlook on life. Continuous learning is crucial for personal growth and resilience. Creating a supportive environment uplifts both instructors and clients. Being “busy” doesn’t mean you’re successful; self-care is essential for true productivity.

In this episode of The Pilates Lounge Podcast, host Katie Crane explores the multifaceted topic of the pelvic floor, emphasizing its critical role in Pilates practice. She addresses common misconceptions about pelvic floor strength, discusses the impact of stress on pelvic floor dysfunction, and underscores the importance of ongoing education for Pilates professionals. Katie also shares practical strategies for helping clients relax their pelvic floor using breathing techniques and movement and introduces a new mentoring program for Pilates instructors.

In this episode of the Pilates Lounge podcast, I explore the limitations of the "belly button to spine" cue for core activation. While this cue has been popular, I discuss why it may only resonate with some and how it can restrict our understanding of core engagement. Key Insights: The Complexity of the Core: I break down the core as a multifaceted system, highlighting the roles of the pelvic floor, diaphragm, multifidi, and transverse abdominals. The Role of Self-Practice: I emphasise the significance of self-practice and self-awareness for both instructors and clients. Understanding our own bodies is crucial for effectively teaching core activation. Effective Cues and Imagery: I share practical cues and imagery techniques designed to help clients connect more deeply with their core muscles during Pilates exercises. Rethinking Traditional Cues: I challenge Pilates professionals to reconsider conventional cues and terminology. By focusing on functional movement and proper joint alignment, we can enhance our teaching and our clients' experiences. Takeaways: The "belly button to spine" cue is limited and may not be effective for everyone. Self-practice and self-awareness are vital for grasping and teaching core activation. The core comprises several interconnected systems, not just the abdominal muscles. Creative cues and imagery can foster a stronger connection to core engagement. It’s important to question traditional cues and prioritise functional movement and joint alignment. Join me for an enlightening discussion that encourages us to deepen our understanding of core engagement and refine our teaching practices! Take Advantage of our Special Offers!
