  • From Addiction to Sobriety: How Breathwork Helped Jon Paul Crimi Heal

    From Addiction to Sobriety: How Breathwork Helped Jon Paul Crimi Heal
    Apr 9 2026
    Have you ever used something — alcohol, substances, scrolling, shopping — not because you wanted to, but because you didn't know how else to cope? This episode is for anyone who has ever reached for a quick fix to quiet what's happening inside.Sana sits down with breathwork facilitator and sobriety advocate Jon Paul Crimi for an honest, grounded conversation about addiction, recovery, and the unexpected tool that transformed his life. From the window of opportunity that opens in a rock-bottom moment, to the emotional weight that surfaces when the substances finally go away, Jon Paul shares what healing actually looks like when you stop running. He also demystifies breathwork — not as a miracle cure, but as a powerful, practical tool for processing what we've buried for years.About the Guest:Jon Paul Crimi is a breathwork facilitator, sobriety coach, and teacher trainer based in Oregon. Over the past 15 years, he has worked with elite athletes, executives, and individuals from all walks of life, helping them use conscious connected breathing to release stored emotions and reconnect with themselves. He is the founder of Breathe With JP and leads breathwork classes and teacher training programs both in-person and online.Key Takeaways:Addiction is rarely the story's beginning. It often develops as a coping mechanism for unprocessed emotions, trauma, or pain — the substances become the solution to how we feel inside, until they create a problem of their own.Recovery creates a flood, not a finish line. When you get sober, years of unfelt emotions can come rushing forward. Writing, therapy, and breathwork are powerful tools for processing what's been buried in the nervous system.Breathwork is not a magic pill. Jon Paul is clear that breathwork complements structured recovery programs; it doesn't replace them. For him, the foundation of sobriety came first through 12-step recovery.Overreacting is often old pain speaking. When our reactions feel disproportionate to a situation, that's usually unprocessed trauma stored in the body. Breathwork helps clear that backlog so our responses become measured and present.You don't need to be in crisis to begin. Breathwork offers an immediate, experiential shift for anyone feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or emotionally stuck, not just those in recovery.Be discerning about who you practice with. As breathwork becomes more mainstream, not all facilitators have genuine training and experience. Choose someone with real depth and proper grounding in the work.Connect With Jon Paul Crimi:Website: https://breathewithjp.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonpaulcrimi/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/breathewithjp/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jon-paul-crimi-967b80208/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoo2rpt8qhu_-U1jj76BVDAX / Twitter: https://x.com/jonpaulcrimiEpisode Chapters:[00:00] Introduction — The quiet moments when something stops working [05:27] The Recording Begins — Jon Paul's story: from addiction to sobriety [09:05] Not Born an Addict — Why addiction is never the beginning of the story [13:42] Rock Bottom and the Window — What happens when the cycle finally breaks [17:33] Life After Sobriety — When the substances leave and the emotions arrive [22:27] Discovering Breathwork — How a gift from Matthew Perry changed everything [26:49] Skeptics Welcome — Why Jon Paul says: don't believe him, just try it🎙️ Want to Be a Guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?Send me a direct message on PodMatch.👉 DM Me Here: https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik🌱 About Healthy Mind By Avik™️Healthy Mind By Avik™️ Global Mental Wellness Podcast Network - focused, credible, no more identity clutter.👉 Subscribe and be part of this healing journey.Refer a GuestKnow someone who would be a great fit for one of our podcast shows?

  • Daryl Dittmer on What It Really Means to Show Up: Body, Mind, Heart, and Soul

    Daryl Dittmer on What It Really Means to Show Up: Body, Mind, Heart, and Soul
    Apr 8 2026
    You wake up. You go through the motions. You tick the boxes. But somewhere underneath all of that doing, a quieter question lingers: am I actually showing up for my life? This episode is for anyone who has ever looked successful on the outside while feeling disconnected on the inside.Sana sits down with author, entrepreneur, and mentor Daryl Dittmer, who has spent decades learning the difference between lowercase showing up and the real thing. From blue-collar beginnings and a recovery journey that began at 19, Daryl brings a grounded, lived-in wisdom to what it means to tend to your body, strengthen your mind, protect your heart, and anchor your soul through daily practice, not perfection.About the Guest:Daryl Dittmer is an author, entrepreneur, and mentor based in North Georgia, USA. Having worn many hats across his life including farmhand, carpenter, sales professional, business owner, landlord, investor, and consultant, Daryl now focuses on helping others stop drifting and start living with intention. He is the author of When I Stop Fighting and When You Stop Fighting, and brings nearly four decades of personal recovery and self-development to his work.Key Takeaways:There are two ways to show up: lowercase (physically present but disengaged) and uppercase (intentional, aware, and aligned). The difference is everything.Showing up fully means attending to four areas consistently: your body, your mind, your heart, and your soul. Ignoring any one area creates a quiet imbalance that eventually shows up somewhere.Gratitude and humility (the kind that keeps you teachable) are not soft extras. They are the foundation of a life that actually grows.Discipline does not have to mean rigidity. Building in grace, rest, and conscious breaks is what makes healthy habits sustainable over years, not just weeks.Success is not a destination you reach. For Daryl, it became something far simpler: waking up in the morning with a smile on his face, knowing his body, mind, heart, and soul are all being tended to.Change does not have to happen all at once. Start with one thing. Practice it consistently. Then add the next. Overwhelming yourself is the fastest way back to where you started.Connect With Daryl Dittmer:Website: https://www.daryldittmer.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/whenistopfighting/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daryl-dittmer-734205294/Episode Chapters:[00:00] The Question We All Carry — What does it mean to truly show up for your own life?

  • From Head Trash to Stage Time: How Entrepreneurs Build Real Confidence with Armando Leduc

    From Head Trash to Stage Time: How Entrepreneurs Build Real Confidence with Armando Leduc
    Apr 8 2026
    Entrepreneurship looks confident from the outside. But behind most businesses, there's a quieter conversation happening — one full of doubt, self-questioning, and the fear of not being ready. In this episode of The Mindful Living, host Sana sits down with Hollywood actor turned business strategist Armando Leduc to explore what actually blocks entrepreneurs from showing up with confidence, and what it takes to move past it.Armando draws on decades of acting training and entrepreneurial experience to connect storytelling, mindset, and visibility in a way that feels both practical and deeply human. If you've ever wondered whether you're good enough to be in the room, this conversation is for you.About the Guest:Armando Leduc is an award-winning actor, filmmaker, and entrepreneur based in New Orleans. Known for his work in Prison Break, Green Lantern, Queen of the South, and other film and television productions, he is also the founder and CEO of Leduc Entertainment, a content marketing and brand strategy company. He hosts the Spaghetti on the Wall podcast and helps entrepreneurs turn content into clients and relationships into revenue.Key Takeaways:Confidence isn't the starting point — clarity and mindset come first. When you understand what you do, who you serve, and why it matters, confidence follows naturally."Stage time" is the antidote to imposter syndrome. Getting in front of audiences through podcasts, content, and speaking builds the experience and identity that self-belief needs to rest on.Many entrepreneurs carry early-life feelings of not being enough directly into their businesses. Recognizing that pattern is the first step to separating personal worth from business performance.Storytelling is the universal language of connection. Whether you're on a film set or a sales call, the structure is the same: a starting point, a conflict, an obstacle overcome, and a transformation.Imposter syndrome often signals a gap in lived experience, not a flaw in character. The scars from failing and trying again are exactly what build the sense of having earned your place.Stop waiting for the perfect moment to start. Making a decision and moving, even if it's wrong, teaches you more than endless deliberation ever will.Connect With Armando Leduc:Website: https://meetarmando.com/Podcast: Spaghetti on the Wall (available on all major platforms)LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/armandoleduc/Instagram: @armandoleduc X / Twitter: https://x.com/armandoleducSECTION 6 — Episode Chapters[00:00] Opening Reflection — The quiet doubt behind entrepreneurial confidence (approx.)
