Hi, I’m MJ.
I’m the founder of The Being Method — a somatic breathwork educator, best selling author, and mentor for people who are ready to heal deeply and live fully.

My work lives at the intersection of science and spirituality. I teach breathwork not as a trend or a tool, but as a profound doorway into the nervous system, emotional release, and long-term transformation.

My path into this work began long before I ever taught my first session. I studied philosophy, drawn to the deeper questions of meaning, consciousness, and what it truly means to be human. That curiosity later led me into osteopathy, where I learned to understand the body not as a collection of parts, but as an intelligent, interconnected system capable of profound self-healing.

In 2012, I became certified in breathwork, and everything I had been searching for — intellectually, physically, and spiritually — finally came together. Breath became the bridge between mind, body, and soul.

But I didn’t come to this work through education alone.
I came to it through my own body.

For years, I lived disconnected from myself — carrying trauma, chronic stress, and deep emotional suppression that showed up in my health, my relationships, and my sense of worth. I tried everything that was “supposed” to help. Nothing truly changed until I learned how to breathe in a way that allowed my body to finally feel safe enough to release.

Breathwork didn’t just help me heal.
It gave me my life back.

Today, I train coaches, therapists, and leaders around the world to guide others through this same kind of embodied healing. Through The Being Method Certification, the Inner Circle, and our breathwork library, I’ve supported thousands of people in reconnecting with their bodies, regulating their nervous systems, and building lives that feel aligned — not just successful.

I believe healing doesn’t need to be harsh, rushed, or forceful.
I believe in gentleness that is powerful.
In science that honors the soul.
In building lives that feel safe, spacious, and true.

When I’m not teaching or writing, you’ll find me with my family, in nature, dreaming up new ways to help people come home to themselves — one breath at a time.
