Rethinking ADHD: A Sustainable Path to Healing Through Breathwork, Yin Yoga, and Heart Science

ADHD is often treated as a disorder of attention, but what if it’s more than that? What if the behaviors we label as ADHD—difficulty focusing, impulsivity, emotional dysregulation—are rooted not in a neurological disorder, but in trauma and nervous system dysregulation?

At BreathWorks Studio, we’ve seen this firsthand. Many individuals with ADHD-like symptoms find that unresolved trauma, stored in their bodies and nervous systems, is the driving force behind their struggles. With a holistic approach that integrates yin yoga, breathwork, heart science, somatic breathwork therapy, and one-on-one coaching, we’re empowering individuals to move beyond symptom management and embrace true healing.

For many, this 30-day journey transforms their lives in ways medication alone never could—offering sustainable health, emotional resilience, and profound clarity.

ADHD or Trauma Response?

ADHD and trauma often overlap in surprising ways. Trauma, especially from childhood, rewires the brain and body, leaving individuals stuck in survival states:

  • Fight-or-flight: Heightened alertness, impulsivity, and hyperactivity.
  • Freeze: Zoning out, trouble focusing, and low motivation.

These survival responses can mimic ADHD, but they stem from a nervous system overwhelmed by unresolved experiences—not necessarily from a neurological condition.

Unfortunately, most ADHD diagnoses do not consider a person’s trauma history or nervous system state. Medications are often prescribed without exploring these root causes, masking symptoms instead of addressing the underlying dysregulation.

 

The BreathWorks 30-60-90 Day Program: A Holistic Alternative

At BreathWorks Studio, we’ve developed a 30-60-90 day program designed to help individuals regulate their nervous systems, process trauma, and restore balance. This unique program combines ancient practices like yoga and breathwork with cutting-edge heart science and individualized coaching.

 

What Makes This Program Different?

  1. Yin Yoga
    At the heart of the program is our specialized yin yoga, a transformative practice designed to stimulate and regulate the nervous system and release stress in the fascia. Each 60-minute session moves participants through a journey:

    • Beginning with higher-paced movement and rhythmic music to release excess energy and tension.
    • Gradually transitioning to complete stillness in savasana, accompanied by sound healing to deeply relax and calm the mind.
    • This dynamic-to-stillness approach engages the brain and body in new, healing ways. It helps regulate emotions, sharpen focus, and create a sense of safety and balance within the nervous system.
  2. Body Therapy and Breathwork
    Weekly body therapy or breathwork classes provide additional layers of healing. Breathwork activates the parasympathetic nervous system, downregulating stress and fostering calm. These sessions are vital for helping individuals release stored trauma and reconnect with their inner clarity.

  3. Daily Heart Coherence Meditation
    Participants learn and practice a daily heart coherence meditation, a powerful tool for aligning the heart, brain, and nervous system. This evidence-based practice reduces stress, enhances emotional regulation, and builds long-term resilience.

  4. Weekly 30-Minute Coaching Sessions
    One-on-one coaching is a cornerstone of the program. These sessions provide personalized support for goal-setting, accountability, and creating actionable strategies for lasting change. Clients gain clarity on their priorities and learn how to navigate challenges effectively.

 

Transformative Benefits

This 30-60-90 day Program addresses the root causes of ADHD-like symptoms, offering results that medication alone often cannot achieve. Participants consistently report:

  • Improved sleep: Falling asleep easily and waking up refreshed.
  • Emotional regulation: A newfound ability to manage emotions with calm and clarity.
  • Enhanced mental clarity: Sharper focus, improved productivity, and reduced mental fog.
  • Relief from physical pain: Releasing tension and trauma stored in the body.
  • Increased motivation and energy: A return of drive and ambition as the body moves out of survival mode.
  • Healthier habits: A natural inclination to eat well, exercise, and practice self-care.
  • Better relationships: Emotional balance fosters deeper, more meaningful connections with others.

One client shared:

“For years, I thought ADHD medication was my only solution. But this program gave me so much more.  The program helped me channel my energy, the yin and sound healing with the breathwork brought peace I hadn’t felt in years, and the coaching gave me direction. I’m now sleeping better, focusing more, and feeling like myself again. This is healing I never thought possible.” 

 

The Cost of True Change

The full program costs $795/mo—a price comparable to a few months of ADHD medication and a handful of talk therapy sessions. But unlike medication, which only manages symptoms, and talk therapy that only works with the story lines, and day to day practices, this program creates lasting transformation from a cellular, holistic level.

With $795 monthly, participants gain:

  • Four Yin Yoga sessions designed to support the nervous system and bring peace to the body and mind.
  • Four somatic body therapy breathwork classes to address trauma and stress stored in the body.
  • A personalized daily meditation practice to build resilience and coherence.
  • Four individual coaching sessions to set goals, create strategies, and stay on track.

Why Doctors Should Refer to Trauma-Informed Programs

Doctors and healthcare providers have the power to transform the way ADHD is treated. By recognizing the profound connection between trauma and ADHD symptoms, they can offer patients a path to true healing—rather than temporary symptom relief.

 

Steps Toward a New Paradigm

  1. Screen for Trauma: Ask about past stressors and trauma when assessing ADHD symptoms.
  2. Refer to Holistic Programs: Recommend a 30-day trial of nervous system regulation before prescribing medication.
  3. Collaborate with Practitioners: Partner with trauma-informed experts to create integrated care plans.

 

A Sustainable Path Forward

At BreathWorks Studio, we believe healing begins with the body, breath, and heart. ADHD-like symptoms often signal a deeper need for nervous system regulation and trauma healing. Through our program, we empower individuals to find balance, focus, and peace from within.

For individuals seeking sustainable change—or for doctors looking to offer their patients a more comprehensive approach—this program provides the tools, support, and guidance to create lasting transformation.
