Lisa McNett is a trauma-informed breathwork therapist, somatic practitioner, and the founder of One Breath Institute.

She is the originator of Introspective Breathwork® Therapy, a client-led modality developed through years of clinical practice and lived experience. This work informed the evolution of The One Breath Method™, now taught globally.

She also developed The One Breath Coaching Method™, a complementary framework designed to deepen facilitator competency and expand the application of this work within professional settings.

Lisa’s path began long before she trained others.

She grew up in a volatile home marked by instability and chronic stress. Learning to disconnect was once necessary for survival. Her healing required the opposite — returning to the body, restoring regulation, and reclaiming inner authority.

In 2007, while studying yoga and Ayurveda in India, she experienced a profound meditative initiation in a cave once inhabited by Sri Ramana Maharshi. That experience did not remove her from the world — it rooted her more deeply in embodied presence.

Today, Lisa integrates contemplative depth with clinical rigor — grounded in nervous system science, consent, and relational presence.

Her clinical practice, Lisa McNett Introspective Breathwork® & Somatic Therapy, is based in Ocala, Florida, where she offers in-person sessions integrating Introspective Breathwork® Therapy and Craniosacral Therapy (Upledger-trained).

Beyond her clinical work, Lisa teaches, speaks, and trains internationally on trauma-informed facilitation, therapeutic presence, and the systemic impact of embodied healing.

Her work continues to shape the evolving standards of trauma-informed breathwork education and professional practice.

She is committed to cultivating a world in which individuals reclaim their innate intelligence and communities are organized around presence, sovereignty, and relational depth.

Her work is not about fixing.
It is about restoring what has always been there.
