Elza Kosmicki: How Small Daily Practices Create Major Transformations

Author: Abel James May 6, 2022 Duration: 1:01:38

It's easy to keep your cool during meditation, but real life isn't always quite so serene.

So what do you do when someone cuts you off in traffic?

Simple daily practices like meditation, breathwork, Qigong, and especially martial arts can teach us how to keep our composure and flow in the face of life's many challenges, even if someone's throwing a punch at you.

So today, I'm thrilled that joining me on the show is my friend, Elzabieta Kosmicki, a Martial Arts teacher, entrepreneur, Qigong instructor, host of the Reasons & Season podcast, and a mother of 2.

With over 20+ years of experience in energy healing modalities and martial arts, Elza has professional credentials in BodyTalk, Classical Chinese Medicine, Structural Integration, Somatic Therapy, Women’s and Children’s Health, Eastern and Western Herbalism, Qigong, and Martial Arts, including Enshin Karate.

She has some powerful words on training to build resilience and confidence while breaking through emotional limitations.

I hope you enjoy today's show. We’re chatting about:

• How small daily practices can lead to major transformations • The benefits of breathwork, Qigong and energy medicine • How to keep your composure when someone cuts you off in traffic • Martial arts training to build resilience and confidence • The link between your breath and your mental, physical and emotional well-being • Working through emotions and limitations through bodywork • And tons more…
