Deborah Maddison
Deborah Maddison found TRE and Breathwork after a long search, following medical retirement from the Navy in her late 20s. Anxiety, depression, complex PTSD had swamped her, but through TRE and Breathwork she steadily found herself becoming more grounded, more embodied, and more alive. She still uses these practices daily to come home to herself, as they support nervous system regulation, release from tension and a deeper connection to herself and life.
She loves to share TRE and Breathwork with others and offers this work with love, kindness, and compassion to all those who are drawn.

Alison Waring
Alison Waring first became interested in alternative medicine from her late Grandfather, an osteopath and naturopath, age eight.
Training in Osteopathy, Naturopathy, and Hypnotherapy, all helped to uncover the patterns of tension associated with the allergic asthma she suffered.
After discovering how to correct chronic hidden hyperventilation she recovered from an asthma attack in 3 minutes using a technique she blended from yogic breathing and the Buteyko method which inspired the creation of Dynamic Breath Release and authored Breathe with Ease.
She now teaches Buteyko and Rebirthing . She is a lifelong student and teacher of natural living and Breathwork.
