Ep.17 | How to Use Breathwork to Tap into Intuition and Ease Decision Making in Business with Breathwork Facilitator, Amy Kuretsky

This episode is JAM-PACKED with wisdom and eye-opening insights.

Amy is a creative genius and she’s been able to create a business that combines all of the different tools and things she loves under one umbrella.

One of the most beloved tools in her toolbelt is breathwork, and in this episode, we dive deep into what breathwork is, the different styles of it, being trauma-informed, and we even got Amy to walk us through her most powerful breathwork ritual for decision making and gaining clarity as a business owner.

Even if you’ve tried breathwork in the past and maybe didn’t “love it” still tune into this, because the reframes and perspectives shifts that Amy walks us through can provide some “ah-ha” moments (just like it did for me (Mariah) live on the interview lol).

We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did!

About Amy Kuretsky:

Amy Kuretsky (she/her) is a breathwork facilitator and wellness coach for mind, body, and business working on occupied and unceded Dakota and Anishinaabe territory. Her work is focused on helping radical business owners thrive in the liminal space between work and life. She believes that the health of our physical and emotional bodies are inextricably tied to the health of our businesses and that when we work in this overlap we can build businesses that are heart-centered and healing for both the individual and the collective.

She uses the breath as a tool for healing in both private business coaching and public group healing sessions and has led in-person breathwork groups all over the US. She completed her breathwork training in 2017 and in 2020 organized for more anti-oppression and trauma-informed training as part of the Breathwork for the People collective. Along with her coaching business, she also has a background in acupuncture and Chinese medicine and co-owns Constellation Acupuncture and Healing Arts based out of downtown Minneapolis.

When she’s not supporting others, she’s hiking in the woods with her pup, playing nerdy board games, or pulling tarot cards.
