Ric Jorge
Ric from Deerfield Beach, Florida, USA, was a fireman for many years and now teaches the uniformed services what it takes to stay mentally healthy when you face the worst.
Ric Jorge experienced first hand what it means to break down and stop functioning. For 25 years he saw burnt people, parents losing their children in burning buildings, and cut off limbs in accidents. I don’t even want to imagine what! And the smell and atmosphere that comes with it! It is something no-one talks about. When you get back to the station, you say: “I am alright.” You don’t want to be the soft c#%$, right?
But it is not how we function as humans! If there is one thing Ric regrets, it’s that he discovered breathing as a tool only late in his life. And now he is out there making sure you learn how to use it!
Make sure you learn from Ric. He knows exactly what it is like to work in your job. He experienced the camaraderie and knows how drug abuse finds its way into the stations with all the stress. He broke down and got back up! He knows how! Work with him and follow his lead!
Even If you are badly traumatised, you can help your body heal yourself with Holotropic Breathwork, Transformational Breath or at home by yourself with Neurodynamic Breathwork. And much more efficiently than with speech therapy. Switch your conscious brain off and let the unconscious brain do the healing undisturbed.

Just do it! Just start to use breathing. No matter where you work.
Denise Cady Arbeau has helped her students immensely with just very little. Helping someone to control their breathing can changes their life! What is stopping you from learning and sharing?
And Tanya Bentley stumbled over the “breathing stuff”. She knew nothing about it. But she quit her job to start researching it with a foundation she founded, because it matters so much to spread the knowledge and skill.
If you are in the uniformed services feeling a little trapped because breathing isn’t a sexy thing to practice, consider working with Anthony Ball. There is no reason why you should be only half a man focused purely on hardware while neglecting your software.
Nicola Moses can help you prepare your ribcage to move better for diaphragmatic breathing. The system she teaches is used by the special forces.
