My name is Helen Ryan, and I am a dedicated Health and Wellness Practitioner with a deep passion for helping people reconnect with their bodies, release stored tension, and transform their wellbeing from the inside out. My journey into breathwork was a natural and powerful next step- one that allowed me to move beyond treating symptoms and begin
addressing the true root causes of pain. As a breathwork facilitator, I bring a calm,  compassionate, and intuitive presence. I believe healing happens when we feel safe, seen, and supported, and this belief shapes every session I guide. My approach blends evidence-informed
practice with a deeply human understanding of how stress, trauma, and emotional patterns can shape our physical
experience.

I focus on leading Breathwork sessions for mental clarity, nervous system regulation, and stress management. Whether guiding a group or practicing my own rituals, I am fully committed to the belief that the breath can guide us. My approach blends mindful rituals, downregulating breathwork practices, and grounding meditations to soothe the nervous system. I hold space with ease, ready to guide those through the breath to discover whatever it is that comes to the surface.

I was inspired to become a BPM Breath and Ice Instructor after discovering Becca’s approach, which blends science-based methods with her real-world experience working with athletes.

I connected deeply with this balance of evidence, embodiment, and performance, and it aligned perfectly with my own commitment to understanding the body at its roots - not just treating symptoms.
I chose BPM because it simply felt right. Other courses focused heavily on technique or philosophy, but BPM brought
together everything I value - science, safety, embodiment, and a supportive community. The way the training integrated
breathwork with cold therapy and nervous system education gave me tools to help people on a deeper, more
transformative level.
