Breathwork & Longevity Workshop

Most of us live with a nervous system stuck in low-grade alarm — wired-but-tired, restless sleep, tight chest, scattered focus. This workshop teaches you how to consciously shift that. Two hours on Vagus Nerve stimulation: the breath patterns and physiological levers that activate your body's natural off-switch for stress. Pranayama from yoga's older tradition, paired with the science of what each technique does to your heart rate, your gut, and your sleep — taught in plain language, with options at every step. You leave with a 5–10 minute protocol you can drop into your day.

What We'll Do

01

Why your nervous system holds the answer

We start with a clear, beginner-friendly look at the physiology: what the Vagus Nerve actually does, why so many of us live stuck in fight-or-flight, and what longevity research says about chronic stress.

02

The practice

Guided breathwork through several techniques — settling breaths, then more activating patterns, then deeper Vagus Nerve work. Options at every stage so you choose your intensity.

03

Grounding and your take-home plan

We close with grounding, Q&A, and a personal 5–10 minute daily protocol. You leave with something you can keep, not just remember.

How It May Feel

• Calmer in your body, steadier in your head
• Less spiraling thought, more inner space
• Lighter digestion as you shift into rest-and-digest
• Slower drift into sleep — and longer stretches before waking
• Sharper focus from rebalanced blood chemistry
• A 5–10 minute daily routine you can actually keep

What to Bring

• —Comfortable clothes you can sit and breathe in
• —A water bottle
• —A notebook (optional, for your take-home protocol)

Good to Know

Breathwork can be powerful. If you have a cardiovascular, respiratory or neurological condition, or are pregnant, please consult your doctor and let Neha know in advance — gentler variations are always available.
