Why Breathwork?

 
 

Are you curious to befriend your inner landscape?

What is Breathwork?

Breathwork refers to different breathing techniques and exercises. These exercises focus on the conscious awareness of your inhales and exhales through deep, focused breathing that lasts a specific amount of time.

What is Conscious Connected Breathwork?

The International Breathwork Foundation states “Conscious Connected Breathwork is an experiential field of study and practice that uses conscious connected breathing and body-mind techniques to support the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels of being.”

Conscious Connected Breathwork is a breathing technique where the breather intentionally connects the inhale with the exhale without any pauses.

Conscious Connected Breathwork creates a shift in our physiology and allows for exploration of altered states of consciousness.

Here are a few reasons why folks practice Conscious Connected Breathwork:

  • nervous system regulation

  • quiet mental chatter and gain clarity

  • process and release grief and trauma

  • ancestral healing

  • somatic release

  • release conscious and unconscious limiting beliefs

  • reconnect to something larger than themselves

Why Breathwork?

Breathwork has the potential to heal issues at the root level. The work happens as we surrender to the breath and after the session you get to reemerge with this experience to integrate into your daily life.
