If you have completed the Foundation IBT (Part A) program, it is time to consider certification (Part B). This will give you what you need to become certified and start your own private practice.

Leadership 2026. An amazing group of IBT students gathered at Stony Point Center for the annual meeting. The meeting was titled The Pathway to Transformation: Breath, Body, Believing, and Belonging. Ray Wooten, Pat Roach, George Beals, and Jackie Klosner gave presentations, and Mei Chou updated the group on the research project on IBT and Brainwaves. Participants came from Spain, Canada, and the US. It was dynamic on every level. I am privileged to be surrounded by such incredible professionals.

IBT is in an exciting time, as new teachers bring their passion for the work to new venues. Kate Shipp and her staff just completed their first Part A Level One Training on the Oregon coast. This program was residential, and the venue was close to the beach. Congratulations on a beautiful training.

May the lives lost on September 11 never be forgotten.
May the love of those who mourn remain in our hearts. May those who sacrificed be honored by the way we live.

And may we remember that even after the darkest night,
there is always the possibility of healing, hope, and renewal.

May we remember.
May we heal.
May we love.
May we never forget.

What an exciting journey began this week. The Integral Breath Therapy Master's class took place in Oracle, Arizona. Here, 24 advanced students and 3 talented assistants embarked on a powerful journey comprising 3 modules over a one-year period.

The focus of this training is divided among increasing skill levels as a practitioner working with individuals and issues; “Self”-care and commitment; advanced forms and techniques of Integral Breath Therapy; the power of breath as an energy therapy; and Psycho-Spiritual or soul work.

There were tears, laughter, and moments of meaningful silence. Presence, listening with compassion, and holding a place of unconditional love for each person. It takes courage to confront the past, challenge the present, and step into an authentic and fulfilling future. This is an amazing group of professionals who are dedicated to changing themselves and bringing that change to their professional offerings.

It is a great honor to bring healing to the healers, awaken the wisdom within, and send them into the world as living expressions of compassion, presence, and transformation. As each healer becomes more whole, the healing they offer extends far beyond themselves—touching families, communities, and generations to come.

To all my Canadian friends, students, and family, I wish a Happy Canada Day. Blessings to all.

We often think of freedom as something we must find, when in truth it often comes from what we are willing to release. Old worries, limiting beliefs, resentment, fear, and self-doubt can become heavy burdens that keep us grounded. Each breath offers an opportunity to let go of what no longer serves us and create space for lightness, possibility, and growth.

Breathing Exercise
Sit quietly and allow your body to relax. Gently, connect the inhale and exhale without pausing. On the inhale, silently say to yourself: "I breathe in light and love." With each exhale, silently say: "I release all that concerns me."
As you continue breathing, imagine every exhale carrying away a burden—worry, fear, tension, or an old story you no longer need. Feel yourself becoming lighter with each breath. Continue for several moments until you experience a sense of spaciousness, ease, and inner freedom.
When you are ready, imagine yourself soaring effortlessly, supported by the strength of your own spirit, carrying only what helps you rise.
