Co-Director of the Global Professional Breathwork Alliance
Jim Morningstar, PhD
Learn how breathwork can be used as a daily tool to relieve stress, heal, emotional resilience, and unlock the wisdom within your heart — while improving your breathing, sleep, digestion, and mobility — to create a life that truly inspires you.
Experience intentional breathing exercises to align with love and receive intuitive guidance.
Imagine living each day with an open, radiant heart...
... a heart so attuned to the essence of universal love that it guides your every step, infuses your relationships with compassion and unwavering acceptance, and aligns your life with your soul’s deepest purpose.
And what if love isn’t just an emotion you feel for someone else, but the very force that shapes your existence?
According to Jim Morningstar, pioneer in transformational psychology and breathwork, love is the essence that holds the universe together.
It’s accessible, not through the physical organ that beats in your body, but through the “sacred heart,” a magnetic vortex through which you can receive and absorb the blessings and wisdom of Source — and of life itself.
Through the power of intentional breathwork and the wisdom of the sacred heart, you can access, awaken, and cultivate the seven layers of the heart’s intelligence — unity, love, life, respect, honesty, justice, and kindness (as modeled after the writing of Glenda Green in her book Love Without End) — each one a practical tool for revolutionizing how you live, work, and love.
Plus, there are potent breathing practices that will help you align with each.
In Jim’s new 7-week live video course, he’ll take you on a journey into the essence of love, as well as a hands-on, practical path to unlock the heart’s intelligence — using Therapeutic Breathwork™ techniques drawn from a variety of sources that Jim acknowledges with great respect.
Jim’s far-ranging background uniquely qualifies him to guide you through the physical, psychological, and transcendent aspects of breathwork and its profound power to influence emotional and spiritual wellbeing.
In other words, you won’t be just breathing — you’ll be communing with your higher self.
Through the seven layers of the heart’s intelligence, you can embody a way of being that brings inner harmony, emotional resilience, and a profound connection to Source — the infinite wellspring of love and guidance that’s always been within you.
Jim’s goal in this course is to help you peel back the layers of illusion that keep you from living as your most radiant self — love.
During this transformative breathwork journey, you’ll learn to:
- Build a breathwork toolkit to continually deepen your understanding of priorities, develop a more aligned sense of purpose, and own the courage to pursue your calling
- Connect intuitively with Source through breathing practices, trusting your inner wisdom to guide you
- Reclaim your breath’s natural rhythm, easing tension and enhancing digestion, mobility, and restful sleep
- Cultivate a timeless sanctuary within, stepping out of survival mode into a space of peace and presence
- Harness “holy vision” daily, cutting through fear-based illusions to live with unshakable inner certitude
- Deepen self-awareness, understanding your triggers and patterns with compassion and practical solutions
- Experience universal synchronicity, noticing how life aligns when you lead with heart intelligence
- Strengthen your parasympathetic calm and master maintenance breathing for a grounded, balanced nervous system
- Inspire others effortlessly, embodying kindness and love as a magnetic force in your community
- Prioritize with soul-led clarity, letting go of distractions to focus on what truly matters to you
- Dance with abundance, drawing the universe’s beneficence through a heart tuned to compassion and generosity
- Andmuch more...
Using his unique breathwork exercises, Jim will first guide you to locate your spiritual heart, where you’ll ground yourself in safety, feeling the love you are. This is the intelligence of unity.
You’ll then tap into the intelligence of love and gain tools to weave your deepest aspirations into daily life.
Moving into the intelligence of life, you’ll release past wounds and boost vitality. The intelligence of respect will solidify your sacred covenant with Source and help you clear your energy, shed judgments, and embrace your unique worth.
The intelligence of honesty can bring with it the joy of authenticity, while the intelligence of justice will guide you to identify and correct imbalances so you give and receive with fairness, restoring harmony.
The intelligence of kindness is good will in action. It’s a highly transformative power that boosts abundance.
This is your invitation to stop searching and start living the love you were born to embody — all while radiating the beneficence of universal love.
If you’re ready to walk this sustainably transformative path, you’ll be guided by one of the most compassionate teachers in the field, inspired by timeless wisdom, and grounded in practical application. You’ll unlock a life of clarity, passion, and compassion — which is your soul’s true knowing.

Module 1: Finding Your Spiritual Heart & the Intelligence of Unity to Connect Directly With Source for Guidance (2025-04-17 5:00:00 pm)
Understand the profound distinction between love as a fleeting, sentimental emotion and love as the powerful essence of all of existence — from material to spiritual.
Explore the first of seven dimensions of the heart’s intelligence — unity — which allows you to integrate knowledge, establish clear priorities, and develop wisdom.
Without clear priorities, focus and values become elusive, leading to conflict between your human desires and your purpose as a direct reflection of Source.
Through guided reflection and breathwork, begin to harmonize the competing forces in your psyche, setting the foundation for deep spiritual alignment and clarity.
Learn how to locate the “sacred heart” in your own body and feel the love that you are.

- Learn steps to reprioritize your life goals
Module 2: The Intelligence of Love - Unlocking Purpose, Meaning, Fulfillment & Pleasure (2025-04-24 5:00:00 pm)
Love is the power of the universe within you. It’s beyond just a feeling or an orientation. It’s a dimension of intelligence and purposeful living.
A person who lives with a commitment to purpose has higher intelligence than one who doesn’t.
Explore how love — when honored and protected — heightens your instinct to nourish, enhance, and apply your purpose, while guiding you toward deeper alignment with your soul’s path.
Gain insight into love as a catalyst for learning, growth, and transformation.
Through meditative and breathing exercises, activate the pleasure and purpose love brings to your life, reinforcing its role as a driving force behind passion, meaning, and fulfillment.

Module 3: The Intelligence of Life - Allowing the Dynamic Unfolding of Life From Moment to Moment (2025-05-01 5:00:00 pm)
Life is love in action, constantly renewing itself in the present moment. We all hope to have meaningful experiences, happiness, fulfillment, and continuity.
Jim will help you shift from dwelling on past mistakes to embracing the unfolding possibilities ahead.
Through powerful exercises, learn to cultivate a mindset of innocent perception, activating the innate intelligence of how life works and how the love that you are can foster better engagement with it.
By understanding that life is neither a history nor a memory, allow yourself to see life’s gifts with fresh eyes — birthing the new before your eyes with every breath.
As you deepen your awareness of life’s intelligence, learn to move beyond limiting knowledge and beliefs, and past stagnant patterns based on formulas and moral structure.
Jim will guide you through a breathing technique to help you awaken a dynamic connection to the flow of life, increasing your energy and deepening your sense of purpose.
In this module, you’ll:

Module 4: The Intelligence of Respect - Honoring Your Divine Covenant to Experience the Joy of a Mutually Supportive World (2025-05-08 5:00:00 pm)
Respect is the foundation of trust — both with yourself and with the Divine.
Explore how acknowledging your sacred covenant with Source opens pathways to confidence, peace, and alignment.
Though we are all one in spirit, each person is irreplaceable. What you don’t bring to the earth, no one else will. We’re all unique in love, purpose, and life.
By honoring and respecting everyone’s individual qualities — including your own — you endow yourself and others with abilities, freedoms, and responsibilities.
When you see people through the eyes of love, you’ll be guided toward the most efficient use of your life.
In this module, you’ll:
- Identify and honor your sacred covenant with Source

Module 5: The Intelligence of Honesty - Opening to New Opportunities (2025-05-15 5:00:00 pm)
The practice of honesty reveals the power of innocent perception. Honesty brings solutions to every problem of life and to science, law, and social management.
Innocent perception requires nothing more than being alert, with eyes wide open, like a child watching a caterpillar. With innocent perception, we come into the presence of Source.
Using honesty as the foundation of clarity and transformation, explore how self-deception blocks growth and why fearless honesty is essential for higher intelligence.
Through powerful exercises, identify fears that compromise your ability to see yourself and your life with clarity. Contemplations of honesty will joyfully open chambers of your heart and opportunities in life which have been hidden from you.

Module 6: The Intelligence of Justice - Restoring Balance & Harmony in Every Area of Your Life (2025-05-22 5:00:00 pm)
Justice is the intelligence of exchange and balance, occurring among the most elemental particles to the most complex human situations. When balance is maintained, health prevails —for a person and a planet.
Exchange that’s created only for your own profit will weaken the intelligence of your heart. Justice is the principle of fairness. You’re not here to over- or under-give. As you give with the true fullness of your heart, so does the universe return to you in kind.
By practicing balance and fair exchange, you cultivate harmony in relationships and with life. Refrain from undervaluing your own worth, so you can open doors to the wealth you’re here to share with others.
Through contemplative exercises and breath retention techniques, strengthen your ability to restore balance in your personal and collective interactions, resetting your “response-ability” vs. your reactivity.
In this module, you’ll:
- Restore justice and balance in key areas of your life and learn to monitor your sense of fairness in daily life
- Identify where you have been unjust to yourself or others
- Learn breath retention techniques — and when it’s appropriate to practice them
- Strengthen your ability to recognize and correct imbalances in relationships
- Differentiate punitive justice from restorative justice
Module 7: The Intelligence of Kindness - Mastering Good Will in Action (2025-05-29 5:00:00 pm)
Kindness is the consummating dimension of the heart’s intelligence. Kindness is the right use of will. Kindness is good will — expressed as caring, helping, refraining from hurtful actions, sharing, and consideration for others. Kindness is strength in action.
Explore how kindness is not just a virtue but also a transformative power. It’s the heart of living and what makes life bearable, meaningful, and delicious.
To develop the intelligence of kindness, discover the joy of truly giving and forgiving — no strings attached. Learn how to be kind to yourself. The confidence that comes from showing kindness is a masterful influence over any situation.
Through acts of kindness, your own abundance increases. By cultivating true generosity and learning to extend kindness to yourself, unlock new levels of influence, fulfillment, and joy.
Jim will guide you through exercises to help you own the strength of your own kindness and release your fears of it. Create a personal kindness agenda for the year ahead, reinforcing this intelligence as an integral part of your daily life.
