Warning: Breath Dancing is Addictive and You may become a Flow Addict!
Breath Dancers choose to flow their breath to the beat and music of their hearts all day long. They are Heart and Mind Flow addicts, addicted to flowing their breath and body with healing postures connecting them to their core and internal dancing spinal breath.
Breath Dancers Dance their Breath and Breathe their Dance for most of the day because they enjoy Flowing with the Dance of Life. When Breath becomes Flow instead of Work, it becomes your best friend and is available 24/7.
The flow of dancing with your breath is a flow that builds the core spinal muscles that hold you up, centers and grounds you, and creates a space for the lungs to expand and contract which is extremely pleasurable.
Dr. Migdal has been a professional ballroom and hustle dancer and Spinal and Breath Doctor for over 40 years. Her Forgiveness Breath Dancing Workshops, which includes Chakra (Energy) Forgiveness & Healing is a magical combination of all three of her expertise that allows one to increase healing on all levels.
Breathing Shouldn’t be Work… It Should Flow…
Dr. Migdal has been a certified Therapeutic Breath Work instructor, coach and breath and Nerve flow Doctor of Chiropractic for over 40 years. She has successfully helped thousands of clients on a journey of releasing negative patterns that have been preventing them from increasing their levels of health in their bodies, at home and in the workplace with Breath Work.
Breathwork can be done in private or in a group and requires supervision for the first 10 – to 20 sessions.
Holistic Breath Flow is when you allow your breathing to flow freely and fully with all emotions, postures and meals. All of your breathing and spinal muscles are engaged and create healthy neuro chemistry for your whole body.
During breathwork therapy, you are usually lying down and are trained/coached into breathing into your full lung space in a circular and completely connected flow.
The training sessions are usually 1.5 to 2 hours and create an environment where your body’s cells are nourished, energized, and strengthened as they are detoxified. The healthy nourishment of oxygen leaves one feeling clearer, happier, balanced and more peaceful.

Canadians are asking for more breast cancer data.Will you help us this October?
Greetings! October is fast approaching. As we look ahead to breast cancer awareness month. Have you started to think about how you can support the progress being made? Breast Cancer Canada researchers are working to advance our understanding of breast cancer. How to prevent it. Detect it. Treat it. With your support, more research will deliver results. Real, measurable, Canada-wide results for breast cancer patients.
Today, Breast Cancer Canada released new data that highlights Canadian perspectives on breast cancer screening and the need for diverse, lived experiences in research. The survey, conducted among members of the Angus Reid Forum, found that there is a significant national demand for earlier routine breast cancer screening. Also identified is a need for more race-based data and a willingness among Canadians to share their experiences to improve patient outcomes. Lowering the Age for Routine Breast Cancer Screening – 89 per cent of Canadians believe routine breast cancer screening should begin before the age of 50. Gathering Race-Based Data – Canada does not routinely track race-based data around breast cancer screening rates, however studies in the U.S. have found black people have clear, poorer outcomes when it comes to breast cancer, especially young black women. BCC’s study found that 79 per cent of Canadians believe that Canada should prioritize gathering race-based data on cancer screening rates to address a lack of information on racial disparities. Canadians’ Desire to Help Future Patients – Four-in-five Canadians (80 per cent) wish their experiences with health challenges could inform research on improving health outcomes for others. You can read the full details here.
There is a clear need to address the lack of information available. And, Breast Cancer Canada is addressing this head on.
PROgress Tracker Breast Cancer Registry Amidst this new report highlighting the need for more patient data, we are proud to announce the launch of PROgress Tracker. This national, first-of-its-kind knowledge registry will collect experiences over the next 10 years from people with breast cancer. BCC is now accepting participants who have or have had any stage of breast cancer, at any time during their journey, to register in PROgress Tracker and share their experiences by completing surveys that will provide missing data needed to advance progress in breast cancer management. PROgress Tracker empowers people with breast cancer to self-report diagnosis, treatment and long-term impacts. This information is segmented based on their breast cancer type, age, ethnicity and geographic location. Researchers can then use this data to identify gaps with the goal of improving breast cancer care. Get started today!progresstracker.ca
Kim MacDonald was the FIRST patient to register in PROgress Tracker.
