My Story

My name is Eddie, founder of Breathwork Junkie, it was born from my own journey of recovery, healing, and transformation.

For 27 years, I struggled with drug addiction. Like many people battling addiction, I spent years searching for something outside of myself to fill the void, numb the pain, and help me cope with life. On 18th February 2018, I made the decision to get clean and started the graft to rebuild a life.

About a year into my recovery, I discovered breathwork.

What started as curiosity quickly became a life-changing practice. Through the power of the breath, I found a way to manage stress, process emotions, reconnect with myself, release old beliefs, heal myself from my own mind and experience a level of peace and clarity I never thought possible.

The impact was so profound and deep, that I decided to train as a breathwork facilitator. My goal was simple: make breathwork accessible to as many people as possible, especially those struggling with addiction, recovery, mental health challenges, and life's difficulties.

I began offering breathwork sessions at recovery events, wellbeing festivals, community gatherings, and workshops, sharing the same tools that had helped transform my own life and started my own retreat in Wales which takes place every year on the August bank holiday, and we heal together by using many different practices and modalities.

As the community grew, people started asking about merchandise that reflected the message behind the movement. They wanted something that represented conscious living, recovery, freedom, and the power of the breath.

That's when Breathwork Junkie became more than a practice—it became a brand.

Today, Breathwork Junkie combines breathwork, recovery, wellbeing, community, and organic apparel to inspire people to breathe deeper, live freer, and realise that change is possible no matter where they are starting from.

This isn't just a clothing brand, its  a way of living free from a head that says your no good, what's the point, my life's shit, etc, etc.

It's a reminder that every breath is a new opportunity to begin again.

Welcome to the movement.
