About Us

​Breathing for Better Health

There is no more simple and powerful daily practise to improve your physical and mental health and wellbeing than correcting your breathing. ​If we had to give just one tip on healthier living, it would simply be to learn how to breathe correctly.
​
Our breathing is intimately linked with our nervous system. Our nervous system has a powerful influence on all our other body systems including our hormones and immune system. Therefore how we breathe determines our health. Improper breathing is a common cause of illness. ​

breathing to heal from asthma

​It is well documented in research that a child or adult with asthma habitually breathes more air than a person without asthma. This can be recognised by the bad habits of mouth breathing, upper chest breathing, audible breathing and noticeable breathing at rest. The habit of over-breathing causes a disturbance of blood gases, as well as cooling and drying of the airways resulting in symptoms such as coughing, wheezing and breathlessness. We can help you to restore functional breathing and heal from asthma. Learn more about Breathing to Heal from asthma.

RECENT TESTIMONIALs

"I tell my friends that seeing you is like going on a retreat, but having an all in one place for body, mind and  emotional healing. You always intuitively know what I need when I come through the door. Even with all the stress I’ve been through lately from the cyclone during our session today I felt completely relaxed like I was levitating."
Brenna, Auckland
"Danika is the best practitioner who I have ever worked with. I was diagnosed with glioblastoma almost a year and a half ago and had an awake brain surgery and radiotherapy and chemotherapy. My whole central nervous system needed gentle work even for the most simple movements. Danika is very careful that I fill my movements with tenderness and understanding as time is key to healing myself. Part of what really helps in this journey is a guided meditation which makes me feel very secure and part of the presence. This was difficult in the past, because I did different only aerobic yoga but didn’t understand the importance of the being in the present. After working with Danika I feel physically and emotionally stronger. Our sessions are such a lovely time of my week. Many thanks to Danika and I would recommend her to anyone."
​
Sandra, Ireland, UK
"Finding Danika has been a real gift. I was new to yoga when I searched for a place to start and now I feel what I get from our sessions is invaluable. Each practice is healing and empowering in an environment that's professional, empathetic and caring. She seems to be able to effortlessly tune in to what I need, be it movement, stillness, focus or calm. I am very grateful to have met her and to be able to benefit from her vast experience and learning. Danika is one of those wonderful people that makes a difference. 🙏🧘‍♀️"
Sue, Auckland 
Working with you has been a game-changer for me! My asthma is totally gone, and I don't even need inhalers anymore! My sleep apnea and snoring are also way better. Plus, I've noticed other health improvements, and I think it's all because we changed the way I breathe. It's pretty amazing!
