Reconnect and Remember
not just who you are -
but all that you are.
Out of the head and mind, back into the Heart and Soul.
The Work
A simple, natural way back to balance and wellbeing.
The Vortex Centre opened in the spring of 2016 with one simple intention - to help as many people as possible find their way back to natural balance, and to navigate the fields of personal and spiritual development as simply and effectively as possible.
All the tools and techniques here are in alignment with the Laws of Nature. Inspiration is the fuel of choice. This work should feel easy to those seeking change - and it should always feel good, so you know you are moving in the right direction.
The Intentional Breath
Switch off stress and anxiety and reconnect to a state of peace using Jim's original breath system.
Cold & Heat Exposure
Learn to thrive in adversity. Lift your mood, build resilience and feel everything get better - safely and simply.
Intentional Living
The Power of Awareness, Intention and Alignment - a few simple principles for the mastery of the Self.
The Way
Wherever you are, there is a next step.
Most people meet this work for the first time at a free event, and find their own pace from there. Start where it feels right.

Your Guide
Jim McFadyen
For almost three decades, Jim has been on a devotional journey of self-discovery and mastery - beginning, in 1997, with the simple intention to discover who he really was.
One of the first certified breathwork and cold exposure experts in the world, he has shared his work with over 20,000 people. His workshops are renowned for their safe, nurturing atmosphere, where transformative experiences are not just possible, but expected.
There is simply nothing like it.
I had the pleasure of sharing an absolutely beautiful day with Jim, the Vortex team and a hundred or so strangers - connected now as one. It was a release I didn't even know I needed.
