James Millen

Whilst searching for ways to quieten unhelpful inner chatter and live more fully in the present, James discovered the answer literally right under his nose. One breathwork session sparked amazement, which grew into fascination and passion. This journey led him to graduate from Breathing Space’s 800-hour Breathwork Teacher Training, certify as an Oxygen Advantage Advanced Breathing Instructor, and gain accreditation with the Global Professional Breathwork Alliance. James shares how breathing can be a secret superpower—giving us far more influence over ourselves than we often realise. Even subtle changes in how we breathe, in real time and in any moment, can shift our body, our nervous system, and our state of mind. Drawing on his lived experience—from endurance sport, public performance, and corporate environments to the everyday challenges of being a partner, father, and fallible human—James deeply understands how our bodies and minds can sometimes feel sub-optimal, even against us. His mission is to teach simple, research-supported, and accessible practices that create immediate and long-term benefits through something we do around 1,000 times every hour: breathe. James' teaching ranges from building healthy functional breathing foundations to specialised work in stress and anxiety management, health, sports performance, and self-development. He teaches individuals and groups in Perth and Margaret River, Western Australia, and offers online sessions worldwide.
