This is an open space to set an intention and breathe life into it. We start by welcoming everyone into the space, setting your intention, going over what to expect and learning the pattern. This call is based around your body and its needs and is suitable for new and experienced breathers - basically anyone who feels called to come back to themselves.
What is Breathwork?
Breathwork is an active meditation. We use the breath to connect more deeply with our physical, mental and spiritual bodies. During a breathwork journey we use the breath to move stuck energy so we can heal and transform.
Breathwork is a form of bottom-up healing – healing from the body rather than the mind. It is a holistic practice using conscious and connected breath to eliminate emotional and physical blocks, stimulate energy and improve your self-connection while also bringing a sense of presence, relaxation and mental clarity.
Why Breathe?
Use your breath to process, integrate, connect, heal and release – find what it is you need. Breathwork allows us to work with the nervous system. Through consciously altering our breath we can activate and regulate the nervous system which allows us to build tolerance for stress in our life.
Benefits of Breathwork:
There are many benefits to a regular breathwork practice, some of them include:
Reduce stress and help with the emotions associated with anxiety and depression
Improve digestion, sleep, and lung capacity
Reduce chronic pain
Promote creativity, inspiration and potentially insights or “downloads”
Reconnect with your intuition
Prolong focus and concentration
Increase energy levels and reduce fatigue
Awareness of emotions
Nervous system regulation
Breathwork also provides us with a safe space to practice what we need in life - whether that is taking up space, using our voice, or listening to and responding to the needs and cues of your body. Breathwork allows us to integrate and explore without judgement.
You are always in control. Let your body lead the way, there’s no knowing exactly what will arise in a breathwork session, but you can be guaranteed that it will be whatever serves you best in this moment.
Setting up your space:
Find a private place where you feel comfortable to move, make sounds and are not in water or operating heavy machines etc.
You’ll want to be laying down so a bed, couch or a yoga mat on the floor is perfect. It would be beneficial to have a journal or notebook nearby to use during integration at the end of a session.
You may want to make your space more comfortable with lip balm, essential oils, crystals, candles, an eye mask, blankets (you may experience changes in temperature).
Ensure you have a stable internet connection (if a virtual session) with adequate charging on your device or plugged in.
What to wear:
Loose clothing is recommended, dress comfortably
Before a session:
Refrain from eating at least an hour before the session & minimize water intake
Please check the health waiver and note the counterindications of breathwork. You will need to sign the health waiver before the session either online or in person at the studio.
