Vanessa Thompson

Vanessa is a breathwork coach with a passion for incorporating breathwork, the ocean and counselling into one unique practise. A love for all things oceanic has inspired Vanessa to pursue the understanding of how breathing can be used to calm us in all situations from hold downs in the ocean to a stressful day in the office.

Vanessa has over 25 years’ experience surfing, surf lifesaving and a yoga teaching qualification combined with a Psychology degree and a Counselling Diploma to provide a unique perspective on how breathing can positively affect every part of our lives. Vanessa provides one on one sessions either in person in and around Byron Bay or online via Zoom. Sessions can be focused on using Oxygen Advantage to increase breath holds in the ocean for ocean confidence or to manage stressful situations on the land, home or office!
