What is Breathwork?

The type of Breathwork I offer is a conscious, connected breath where the inhales are emphasized over the exhales and the breath is done continuously, without pause. The specific style I offer is called “Body-Connected Breathwork” and is one of the many breath technique that stems from the lineage of Holotropic Breathwork.

The breathing portion always begins lying down with eyes closed. Practioners are invited to bring eye masks, blankets, pillows, or anything that will make them more comfortable while lying down. Please note that I play loud music during the class which is intended to be a big part of the experience. If you are not ok with loud music please bring your own ear plugs and set up your mat further away from the speakers.

I usually begin every journey with a grounding meditation and an invitation into the felt sensations of the body. The first part of the Breathwork journey is intended to be ACTIVATING. We are intentionally and safely taking our bodies into a state similar to the state we are in when we experience stress or even trauma. We are activating our sympathetic nervous system. We are allowing any unprocessed information or emotions from the body to be felt, expressed, and (if ready) released. During this time, practitioners are encouraged to make any noises that feel intuitive to them; to let tears or laughter or yawning or coughing or sneezing happen if it wants to; to sit up or stand up or shake or dance around on their mat. Anything goes as long as they stay on the confines of their own mat. I usually also includes a few breath HOLDS upon which I invite practitioners to scream or shout or roar as they exhale.

The second half, or the finishing piece of the journey is to integrate and invite in SPACE, EXPANSION, LOVE, GRATITUDE, or whatever may resonate for the practitioner in that moment. We then shift to a slow, deep breath with longer exhales to drop back into the para-sympathetic nervous system. This is a time for grounding, settling, and recieving. During this time, I often have a sound practitioner providing live sound (drums, singing, handpan, etc.) or I will be playing my crystal sound bowls and percussion tools.

I want to be clear — every journey is different for every person every time. It is SOMATIC WORK and it is a 100% experiential practice. You are welcome to come with INTENTIONS, but try to leave your EXPECTATIONS at home :) In my humble opinion, if you can allow the breath to do what it’s innately intended to do, it is the guide to bring you exactly what you need for your greatest healing and the next layer of your own awakening. The breath is a mirror to help you REMEMBER who you truly are.

Some common benefits experienced from Breathwork include:

-The gentle release of trauma

-More self-love

-A reduction of stress and anxiety

-Inner child healing

-Finding forgiveness of self and others

-Breakthrough insights

-An opening of the heart

-The release of stuck emotions that are stored in our body and cause dis-ease

-Transcendental or 'Mystical' experiences which completely transform ones consciousness and the way one experiences life (this is reported in about 10% of breathers)

-Meetings with deceased loved ones

-Healing and letting go of painful relationships

-Physical healing

-Relief of some psychosomatic symptoms

-A reset for the nervous system

-Decreased inflammation in the body

-More mental clarity

-More confidence and a higher happiness set-point

What this type of Breathwork is NOT

This is not Pranayama exercises. This is not a workshop where we learn and practice different breath techniques. This is intended to be 100% experiential. The focus is less on the actual breath technique and more about your journey inward; it is more about where the breath takes you.

Below is the description for each of my in-person Breathwork offerings:

Frequency

Frequency, put simply, is the movement of energy. In this experience, we explore moving energy through the body using different modalities including - breathwork and sound.
The type of breathing offered is called Body-Connected Breathwork. The main segment of breathwork is usually done lying down, eyes closed, with music playing. We breathe for an extended period of time(40-60 minutes). This continuous stretch of breathing causes a shift in consciousness, taking one on a deep inner journey. The experience can be different for every person every time. The breath is the guide to bringing exactly what one needs for their healing and awakening!
Each month the details will vary slightly, but the overall experience will always be the same: a somatic exploration of the movement of energy... vibration...FREQUENCY.
The intentions and themes will change with the shifting of the moon, months, and seasons... but you can almost always expect a long segment of conscious BREATHWORK as well as a segment of SOUND THERAPY.

Embodiment

This offering is a combination of yoga, breathwork, and sound and is designed to take you OUT of your mind, and deep IN to your body!

A typical EMBODIMENT class would look something like this:

Yoga for the first 40 minute

Breathwork for around 30 minutes

Soundbath for the last 20 minutes

The style of yoga is an intuitive flow. Instruction is given, but practitioners are also encouraged to move intuitively on their own at times. The yoga portion is active and some previous yoga experience is helpful but not necessary.

After the movement, we then lay down and settle in for about 30 minutes of conscious, connected Breathwork which can be deeply therapeutic and resetting for the nervous system. The breath takes the practitioner into an altered state of consciousness where they are able to feel and express any energy or emotions flowing through the body.

Last but not least, the sound bath will be a time for the practitioner to relax, settle, and integrate as the vibrations of the sound bowls flow through your being.

This offering is a beautiful and unique experience for your felt senses.
