Hosted by Anna Al Qasimi-Roberts—somatic CBT coach, nervous system educator, and breath + movement facilitator—this space is where science meets softness. Where fascia meets emotion. And where clarity doesn’t come from pushing harder… but from feeling safer in your skin.

    Breathwork That Brings You Home

    Discover Sanctuary Somatic Breathwork—a softer, nervous-system friendly practice for women who’ve felt overwhelmed by intense breathwork. Join “The Way In” series with Constanze. In this episode, somatic coach and The Achievher Studio co‑founder Constanze unveils a gentler approach to breathwork that supports nervous system repair rather than activation. She shares her personal journey through intense healing modalities, the science behind parasympathetic regulation, and why traditional breathwork might not be for everyone—especially those with dysregulated systems. The Problem with Intense Breathwork: Many high‑octane techniques can overwhelm the nervous system instead of healing it. Somatic Regulation: True transformation lives in the parasympathetic space—where the body feels safe enough to heal. Gentle vs. Forceful: Feminine nervous systems often require more oxytocin, care, and soft receptivity—not adrenaline. Embodied Safety: Constanze’s experience—from Reiki to yoga—showcases the need for grounded, body-first practices. Healing in Community: Shared breathwork circles foster blossoming through collective tenderness and presence. Women feeling disconnected or overwhelmed by intense healing practices Anyone curious about nervous system regulation through breath Folks seeking a grounded, somatic path toward emotional wellness Explore The Way In, our 5‑week online Sanctuary Somatic Breathwork journey: Soft invitations to your breathDeep nervous-system careGentle community spacesHealing rooted in safety—not intensity 🔗 [Join “The Way In” here] Follow on Instagram: @TheAchievherStudio @achievher (Behind‑the‑scenes + breath practices)

In a wellness culture obsessed with quick fixes and aesthetic healing, Anna offers a grounded, science-rooted, and deeply embodied alternative.

    Emotional Constipation: Why You’re Not Broken, Just Backed Up

    This week, Anna explores the hidden reason so many high-functioning women feel stuck, reactive, and disconnected: emotional constipation. It’s the silent build-up of unprocessed feelings, unsaid truths, and tension we’ve normalized as “fine.” In this voice-note-style episode, Anna unpacks how our biology, not just mindset, keeps us in survival loops—and how nervous system literacy, fascia work, and somatic practices help us finally release. This is a must-listen if you feel like your glow, clarity, or spark has gone missing. (Hint: it’s not gone. It’s trapped.) In this episode: What emotional constipation is—and how it shows up in the body Why women in Dubai feel this more acutely The nervous system responses keeping you in survival Somatic tools to soften, release, and reconnect How breath, fascia, and lymphatic movement support real emotional detox Why “saying no” is a biological act of self-trust—not just a mindset shift
