Justin Caffrey learnt from a young age that understanding fear, building a resilient mindset and pushing past boundaries, brought material wealth and success. He built and sold businesses after a successful career in banking in London. He was known as shrewd dealmaker in private equity circles and a very tough negotiator. Always pushing through fear, being the 1% of the 1%.
Then his son died.
Everything that Justin felt he understood and could influence fell away. A new darkness engulfed his world. Post traumatic stress and grief consumed him and he initially struggled with these demons.
He needed some new tools, he trained with ancient monks in the East, masters within mindfulness, Buddhism and inner-work. He traveled the world, sought out the best of the best, but also started to realise much of what was needed was already within him.
He faced down his demons, built his practices to cope with his anxiety and grief, and now he teaches others how to overcome their challenges.
This is a 1-hour deep dive where Justin shares his approach to Self Discipline with some invited guests. (you can apply to join the panel each week at 7pm UK & Irish Time).
Now you can listen in!
Justin is one of the few Westerners to have completed Yamabushi Master Training in remote and sacred mountains of Shonai, in Japan.

![Stop Panic Attacks NOW! (Vagus Nerve)
Welcome to our session today where well walk you through an efficient approach to STOP Panic Attacks. Our method primarily emphasizes three minutes of nasal breathing while subtly placing your hands over your mouth and nose. Accessing Vagus Nerve.
Lets dive in:
1️⃣ Find a tranquil, peaceful spot and sit at ease.
2️⃣ Position your hands gently over your mouth and nose.
3️⃣ Inhale and exhale slowly and peacefully through your nose for a duration of 3 minutes.
Count in for 4 seconds on the inhale and out for 6 seconds on the exhale.
Imagine a piece of tissue paper is in front of your nose. Keep trying to breathe super softly so as NOT TO MOVE the tissue paper on the inhale or exhale using the above count. Keep going for 3 minutes.
Gradually soften the intake and outtake of breath, thereby drawing less air in through your nose.
This practice triggers the production of nitric oxide. This molecule, which is the product of nasal breathing, facilitates the delivery of oxygen to your tissues, lowers blood pressure, and is integral to the functioning of your nervous system.
Significantly, nitric oxide can activate the vagus nerve, the longest nerve within the autonomic nervous system. This activation assists in shutting down the fight or flight response prevalent during panic attacks.
We endorse this technique as a part of a comprehensive strategy for panic attack management. To boost the potency of this method, we offer daily breathing exercises on our YouTube channel:
