Breath for Life

Join us on this transformative Breathwork Journey

Breathwork is a type of therapy that utilizes specific breathing patterns to improve mental, physical, and spiritual wellness. The breathwork that will be used during our journey is called the Conscious Connected Breath. Using full deep breaths, we breathe in and out continuously, through the mouth. We do not hold our breath at any point. The pace of the breathing changes, increasing and decreasing in pace, throughout the journey. Our journey is accompanied by music.

This type of breathing is designed to tone down our thinking mind and put us in touch with our wisdom mind. It also drops us into our bodies – where emotions and feelings are stored. With our thinking mind toned down and our wisdom mind and our bodies more front and center, we can start to release the energies of anxiety and stress, depression, insomnia, poor digestion, and trauma. Our state of being and our perspective on life and the world we live in also starts to improve as we do this healing work. We can even receive messages about how we’re living our lives or a path forward.
