Wyld Roots –
Evidence-Based Breathwork for Young People

Wyld Roots delivers engaging, evidence-informed breathwork sessions that support young people experiencing anxiety, exam pressure, low confidence, school refusal and emotional dysregulation.

With over 20 years’ experience working with children and young people, alongside a background in social work practice and a degree in education, sessions are trauma-aware, developmentally informed and aligned with education and wellbeing frameworks.

As a certified breathwork instructor, I teach practical, science-backed breathing techniques that support emotional regulation and nervous system balance. Breathwork activates the parasympathetic nervous system, helping students move out of fight-or-flight states and into calmer, more focused states that support learning and wellbeing.

Sessions are accessible, inclusive and enjoyable, using specially designed Soma Breath music to create an immersive experience. Students leave with techniques they can use independently at school and at home.

​

Through simple breathwork, movement, and guided visualisation, young people learn practical tools to calm their nervous system, improve focus, and reduce anxiety before and during exams. Alongside this, Wyldroots creates space for students to visualise the future they want to move towards — not as pressure or perfection, but as a sense of direction, self-belief, and possibility. By supporting both nervous system regulation and positive future thinking, young people are better equipped to approach exams with clarity, steadiness, and trust in themselves.
