226: Campbell Will, Integrative Physiotherapist & Breathwork Educator: Why Your Breath Might Be the Hidden Cause of Your Insomnia

MP3•Episode home

Campbell looks at health from a 'nervous system' first approach, teaching the importance of movement and breathing as it relates to the nervous system. He combines his background in physiotherapy with a specialisation in breathwork that focuses not on the experience, but on the restoration of optimal breathing. His outlook focuses on systems over symptoms and people over problems.

SHOWNOTES:

😴 How does your breathing during the day influence your ability to fall asleep at night?

😴 What’s the difference between “offline” tools: daytime breath practices, and “online” tools: in-the-moment fixes at 3am?

😴 How can slow, intentional breathing (SIB) switch your nervous system into recovery mode?

😴 Why is remembering moments of relaxation as important as the breath itself?

😴 Can short, 2–3 minute practices throughout the day actually improve sleep more than long sessions at night?

😴 What role does self-awareness play in breaking the cycle of stress and insomnia?

😴 How do unconscious habits like “email apnea” silently disrupt your physiology?

😴 Why is training your “breathing autopilot” the secret to long-term resilience?

😴 What does outcome-based breath work mean, and how can it reshape your health strategy?

😴 Can breath work really support those with sleep apnea or disordered breathing?

😴 How does the nervous system’s plasticity mean it’s never too late to change, even after decades of poor patterns?

😴 Why is recovery just as crucial as performance, and how can breath work bridge the two?

😴 What’s the most powerful daily shift: waiting until bedtime to relax, or sprinkling “mini off-switch” moments across your day?

😴 What has been the biggest personal aha moment about breath and sleep from our guest?

😴 And so much more!
