Breathe and Release: Conscious Connected Breathwork – Macclesfield

Join me for a special 2-hour breathwork session at The Wellbeing Space in Macclesfield on Tuesday, 28th October.
This is the perfect opportunity to reconnect with yourself, reduce stress, and experience a profound sense of clarity and calm – all through the power of your breath – in a beautiful, relaxing environment.

Breathwork is more than just breathing – it’s a deeply therapeutic practice that uses your breath as a tool for healing, self-discovery, and transformation. By consciously connecting with your breath, you can:

✨ Release stored tension and stress from your body and mind.

✨ Boost your energy levels and improve your sleep.

✨ Gain clarity and insight into your life and emotions.

✨ Create mental space, increase awareness and connect with inner guidance.

✨ Feel more grounded, present and embodied.

✨ Release emotional blocks and stuck feelings, process trauma and past experiences.

✨ Access altered states of consciousness, deep peace, joy, relaxation and wellbeing.

Whether you’re seeking relaxation, clarity, or a powerful personal shift, this session can help you move from stress and tension to a state of flow, calm, and focus. No prior experience is necessary – just come with an open mind and a willingness to explore the power of your breath.

I'm a certified and trauma-informed breathwork facilitator and transformational coach with 25+ years of experience in the wellbeing arena – Reiki Master, energy work, EFT & NLP practitioner – creating safe, supportive spaces for healing and empowered life changes and transitions.

This 2-hour session combines breathwork techniques with a curated music soundtrack to guide you through an experience that is grounding, relaxing, healing and uplifting.

My calm, gentle and intuitive approach will ensure that you’ll feel comfortable, whether it’s your first time trying breathwork or you’re returning to deepen your practice.

Whether your aim is to reduce stress, gain clarity, or simply feel more grounded, this session is designed to meet you where you are and connect with the innate wisdom of your breath and body to guide you.

We'll begin with a welcome and introduction to the practice, and an invitation to set your intentions which will guide your journey.

The guided breathing practice will help you connect with your inner being to release tension and resistance and open up to new possibilities, while helping you relax and find inner calm.

There will be time at the end to share your experience with the group (if you’d like to), which can help deepen your connection to the practice and integrate your experience.

• Wear loose, comfortable clothing.
• Avoid eating heavily 1.5–2 hours before the session.
• Yoga mats and blankets are provided, but you may want to bring an extra mat to lie on for added comfort.
• An extra blanket for warmth – breathwork can cause fluctuations in body temperature.
• A thin pillow to support your head, but which allows you to breathe freely.
• A water bottle.
• An eye mask (optional)
  

Spaces are limited to 14, so secure your spot today!

While breathwork is safe and accessible to most, it’s essential to take precautions if you have certain health conditions, and please note that this practice is not a substitute for medical advice. If you experience any of the following contraindicated conditions such as, but not limited to: epilepsy or seizures, recent major surgery, glaucoma/detached retina, delicate pregnancy, high blood pressure (not controlled with Medic*tion), low blood pressure with fainting history, cardiovascular disease, COPD, untreated/severe PTSD, severe osteoparosis, epilepsy or seizures, pre-existing lung disease, or prior diagnosis of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia or previous psychiatric condition, then you must inform me before the start of the session.

It will still be possible to breathe with us with a modified practice, and I will guide you appropriately.

This can be a dynamic practice, so it’s important that you agree to take personal responsibility for your process and your well-being by listening to your body and respecting these guidelines.

By proceeding with the session, you confirm your understanding and acceptance of the terms and guidelines above.

"Thanks again so much for yesterday, it was a wonderful experience and I really feel my body released so much weight it has been carrying. I feel so much freer, more grounded and light today."
"I wasn't sure what to expect, but found the whole time spent in the studio, safe, caring and extremely encouraging for me. I felt so much more relaxed when I left than when I arrived.
