Why I'm in the Venus Network
Initially it was to grow my network of individuals whom I may not otherwise have met - I was new to the area I now live and work in so this was super-helpful.Over time I have continued to be a member having learnt how supportive it is to be part of a proactive network managed by highly capable women offering a range of great business advice and courses. I not only learn a lot but also feel both appreciated and able to contribute and have found that over the couple of years involved in Venus. the trust and respect has grown even more.
Being a member during the lock downs was also a life line and helped Breathe Free Clinic to keep moving and focus on business when it would sometimes have been easy to let go.

Testimonials
‘I have recently completed the 6 week Breathe Free Clinic Course with Felicity Campbell to relearn to nose breathe.As a result the indigestion and reflux problems I experienced for over 40 years completely disappeared within a week or so of beginning the course and I am told that I no longer experience sleep Apnoea or snore much to my wife's delight. Certainly “Gobo”, the anti-snoring device I have put up with for many years is in the bin!
The focus on nose breathing has been an educationally enlightening enriching experience that I did not anticipate and I continue to discover the benefits of.
I found the course intense requiring real commitment, however Felicity's warm professional encouragement has ensured a life changing result.’
- David Stewart (70 years), Te Awamutu
‘I thought I knew how to breathe (well), and yet I really didn’t know much at all about breathing until I worked with Felicity.
Felicity’s comprehensive program has been incredibly life changing and very likely life extending.
I saw Felicity after suffering from years of chronic insomnia and PTSD and I was shocked and delighted at how quickly my symptoms improved.
Her extensive knowledge and support helped me embody the changes I needed to make and has given me invaluable tools that I know I’ll used forever!’
- Sarah Ashill (49 years), Wellington
"I had periodic mild to severe episodes of asthma in addition to colds or flu that would regularly become bronchial infections. The worst of these ... prompted me to begin breathing retraining. In the more than a year since I have been engaged in the training, I have had no more episodes of asthma, no colds or flu, and no episodes of bronchial or lung infection.
I no longer need a bronchodilator and am in the process of eliminating a daily corticosteroid (which Leslie has since done) ...I highly recommend the Breathe Free Clinic's breathing retraining to others.
It has been a great pleasure working with Felicity. Our written and video (online) communications were always prompt, well planned, and well executed. Felicity was very knowledgeable and well organised. Thank you."

My point of difference
We not only educate along with assessment and teaching 'self-health control' but also help individuals to change their baseline breathing patterns.Many programmes alter breathing only during the time they are being practiced, using 'special effects techniques' which may seem fun and helpful in the moment however they don't usually last much beyond the time they are practiced.
We teach a habit-breaking method that helps to improve breathing more permanently with the consequent health benefits to go with it.
Personally, Felicity assesses breathing and teaches this particular method because it was the only one she found in 45 years which was able to help her overcome asthma which she had had all her life previously. As a result she now no longer need to use any medication (after 35 years of prior use).
