Let us guide you

The problem with conventional solutions

They’re a shot in the dark

Stress is how we interpret the craziness in our life. It’s a catch-all term used to put all the challenging emotions into one bottle.

Ever been treated for stress symptoms without really understanding the problem? That was me. It’s like fixing a leak without knowing where it’s coming from — frustrating and pointless. So many solutions, so little clarity. It’s like a never-ending buffet — you end up stuffed but still hungry for real results.

Freedom from stress, overwhelm and anxiety comes through mindfulness and emotional intelligence but the concepts can be abstract and the techniques unrealistic in the down and dirty of everyday life. Yoga mats and incense? They are great to unwind but don't reduce reactivity in the moment! They don't reprogram your brain like we do.

At Pause Breathe Proceed we are all stepping into freedom by demystifying stress. Understanding your stress gives you power over your life.

What makes

Pause Breathe Proceed different?

It really works! And here's why . . .

We make freedom from stress feel like second nature

In a world where every second counts, fitting in those zen moments can seem impossible. We get it — between work, family and Netflix, who's got time to meditate for hours?

That’s where Pause Breathe Proceed comes in. We’re not here to add to your to-do list. Our simple, no-fuss approach slips seamlessly into your day. No complicated yoga poses, just real-life solutions.

Navigating through the chaos: Keeping it simple

Pause Breathe Proceed is like GPS for your life. Once you know the power of the pause, you can’t un-know it. You don’t just close our book and go back to the same old life.

With our friendly reminders, weekly pauses, emails and private Facebook group, we’ll guide you on your journey to your much-needed peace of mind.

Say goodbye to the overwhelm and hello to a happier and balanced life.

A solution as comfortable as your favorite sweatpants

Pause Breathe Proceed isn’t just another solution to be tossed up to “I tried”. It’s like your favorite sweatpants — comfy, easy, and perfect for everyday wear.

The more you practice, the better it gets. As you begin to understand yourself, you will unleash your FREE WILL and live your life FREE with peace, power and purpose!

"The "Pause Breathe Proceed " technique started being effective after only 2 days. I didn't think it was possible to see a positive change in my level of stress so fast. With the constant reminder system created by simple accessories like bracelets and stickers, I feel my reactivity decrease by every hour. I already equipped everyone in my family with a bracelet :)" - Aleksandra Zuraw
