In this episode of the "INTOCHANGE" podcast, Michael "Crusher" Crush shares his intense journey from an adrenaline-filled life in extreme sports to a more introspective approach towards life.
He discusses how a near-death experience in his childhood, coupled with a cyclone encounter in Samoa, profoundly shaped his views on life and death. Crusher's story takes a turn with the tragic death of his mentor in a wingsuit jump, which leads him to reevaluate his life choices.
Crusher then delves into his past addiction to extreme sports, driven by a constant need to challenge death. He recounts experiences of fainting and seizures as a child, which he later understands could be linked to Pallid Breath-Holding Syndrome. This revelation paves the way for his interest in breathwork facilitation.
Transitioning from a life of extreme sports, Crusher finds solace in yoga and meditation. He elaborates on the Buteyko method, a breathing technique beneficial for health and mindfulness. The conversation also covers various breathing techniques and their physiological effects on the body, particularly on the nervous system.
Throughout the podcast, Crusher's reflections reveal a man who has journeyed through the thrills of extreme sports to a path of personal growth and understanding. His story highlights the transformative power of introspection and the importance of understanding our bodies and minds.
