About Gail and indigo breath and wellness
I am Gail Sonnesyn, the founder of Indigo Breath and Wellness, Inc. My motto is “Show up for Life” because I believe we were put on Earth to fully embrace our physical selves and to live life to our fullest capacity.
After many years of personal breathwork with a practitioner, I decided to leave my job as an educator of twenty years to become trained as a breathwork practitioner. Ultimately, I launched Indigo Breath and Wellness so that I can help people unlock the power held within themselves. I know this power firsthand. At the age of nineteen, I was diagnosed with aplastic anemia and was given a 1% chance of survival. While western medicine successfully kept me alive for several years, I was not ALIVE, and I was not being healed. I was deeply depressed. At that point, my mother introduced me to the benefits of biofeedback and visualization, and I embraced them fully. That knowledge moved me from a place of existence to a place of power as I used those tools to support my healing journey. Years later, discovering breathwork and experiencing how it can loosen trauma and promote wholeness and connectedness, reignited my desire to share my knowledge and gifts with others.
Along with supporting clients, my greatest joy is being the mother of twin daughters who have taught me so much about life and living. They are grown now, and the journey just keeps getting better and better. I also spend as much time as possible being physically active in nature.
