Fitness & Health Enthusiast

As the owner of a Pilates studio and a long-time Pilates practitioner, we focus intently on breath work
because it is so important in facilitating correct muscle activation and ensuring the safety of the
exercises. In addition, it helps clients practice mindfulness; staying in the moment as they focus on their
breath helps decrease stress, improves focus, and creates a mind-body connection.
I believe deeply in Elizabeth’s online breath work course, FUEL, as a method to help clients with stress
reduction, improved sleep, and alleviation of pain.
Cardiovascular/Blood Pressure
Ann W, Ph.D.
“By learning and practicing the Breathing Techniques, I was able to lower my Blood Pressure by 30 points!!! This program really works!!!”
Orthopedic Pain
Beth B.
“With Elizabeth's classes I benefited from reduced orthopedic pain (the result of an accident). With the results of the classes I have been able to choose not to have surgery and can get along with pre-injury status.”
Pregnancy/Motherhood
Maria W.
“Being reborn into a mother has been amazing, challenging and absolutely beautiful. I am beyond grateful to get to experience this journey. Through the great bouts of laughter and joy, and the lonely tear-filled nights, I have been comforted by connecting to my breath. Although breathing is an innate function of our existence, learning how to intentionally breathe is a whole different story. As a 180-pound pregnant woman, I used my breath to combat pelvic floor pain while giving birth unmedicated to my son. I used breathing to bring him lower in my birth canal and alleviate the awesome rushes of contractions. And as a new mom, I have used intentional breathing to ground myself during a challenging moment. By learning how to intentionally breathe, I have been able to be a better mother, partner and friend.”
Nursing & Multiple Health Issues
Lee-Anne Godfrey, President, RN Case Management
I have known Elizabeth for many years, both professional and personally. She never
ceases to amaze me with her enthusiasm, creativeness, expertise and depth of
knowledge.
Joining her for breathwork has been a profound experience. Along with doing the
breathing exercises, I am also learning about how the breath actually works with the
various systems of the body and with the mind. This is information and experience I can
use both for myself and for our clients. Nurses are teachers, as is Elizabeth, and I pass
on her knowledge to others so they can benefit as well. Most of our clients have multiple
physical and psychological challenges. Learning to breathe consciously and with
intention has helped our clients decrease BP and heart rates, expand lungs that are
often compromised and under expanded, all while calming their worrying minds. What a
gift!
Elizabeth provides tools along with the education. These are tools I, or our clients, can
pull out to use whenever we want. From rising in the morning to last thing when I close
my eyes, breathwork helps me to reduce stress, decrease pain and literally stand taller
with feelings of confidence and wellbeing.

Sleep
Barbara K
“I have taken classes with Elizabeth Logue for many years. Her teaching me the 4-7-8 breathing technique is something I use every bedtime. It has been invaluable during stressful times as well. Learning to breathe properly with Elizabeth’s direction is something I will always be grateful for.”
Emotional Health
Molly L.
“Your breath work classes are great source of self- care that I can use anytime I’m needing peace and relaxation. I have trouble just relaxing and being “still”. Your Meditative breath coaching is easy to follow. Your classes create a small, quiet and calming space. I feel “at peace” after class and who doesn’t need some daily peace! I’m definitely addicted in a good way.
You are a blessing to so many and I am thankful you share your gifts with us.”
Covid: Stress and Emotions
Howard P
“During this time of Covid, I found the Breathing Exercises caused me to relieve stress and learn to breathe. My mood also benefited by slowing me down.”
Lymphoma/Pleural Effusion
Darlene F.
“I have been diagnosed with Waldenstrom’s Lymphoma and Pleural Effusion in my left lung. I have a Pleurex catheter installed which allows me to drain 300 ml of fluid from my left lung every other day. Elizabeth’s Breath ATX Yoga classes have helped my breathing and reduced my stress. I try to do her class 5 times a week.”
Asthma
Leslie R.
“My asthma improves after the breathing exercises. If I am stressed, the breathing exercises definitely calm me down. I am able to do physical exercise for a longer duration if I do the breathing exercises simultaneously. My quality of life has improved immensely from the breathing exercises!”
