About our guest:
Niraj Naik, the Renegade Pharmacist, is a certified UK pharmacist turned holistic wellness, brain-training, and breathwork expert, and one of the world’s most sought-after spiritual ceremony facilitators.

His journey started in the midst of a “burnout” in his corporate career, when he found himself in a painful chronic illness that had him bed-ridden for a year. Healing himself a year later using Breathwork practices and dietary adjustments, he felt motivated to share his knowledge with others.

Today, Niraj runs a global breathwork community and trains hundreds of breathwork experts through his SOMA breath framework – which is also taught at many wellness centers across the world with training centers in Europe, USA and Asia.
