Breathwork Circle & Community Fundraiser for Nederland Fire Victims

Join Bonnie Coberly of Boulder Breathwork for a nourishing guided breathwork circle at Ember & Ice Boulder. This event will support the victims of the recent fire in Nederland that devastated the business community and their employees. 100% of proceeds will go to the small business owners in Nederland to rebuild from the fire. More details and a GoFundMe to support the community can also be found here.
We will begin with group connection, reflection and intention setting for what you’re ready to release as we transition into the fall and winter seasons. Then Bonnie will guide you in a 60-minute pranayama breathing practice where you will connect with your breath to feel your intentions, release stuck emotion, nourish your nervous system and immune system, and deeply connect with your own energy and wisdom. We’ll complete our community circle with sharing and integration of what emerged in your experience. For those who want to, you can experience the healing of the sauna and cold plunge afterward!

Two ticket options are available so you can choose what works best with your budget: one for the breathwork circle and one to add the cold plunge/sauna.

WHAT IS BREATHWORK?

Breathwork is an active meditation fueled by a consistent, conscious breathing technique. It is a powerful tool to help you quiet your mind, connect with your body and heart, release stuck energy and emotion, dissolve stress and anxiety, and experience deeper levels of spiritual connection.

Similar to meditation, science shows that breathwork is extremely effective at quieting the default mode network in the brain, in addition to balancing the stress response in the body, reducing anxiety, helping to heal trauma, reducing inflammation and supporting the immune system.

WHAT YOU WILL EXPERIENCE:

The breath is the most basic and profound doorway to access your life force energy and consciousness. The simple and profound practice of actively using breath to fill yourself with oxygen and move stuck energy out of your body feels like a highly focused meditation, combined with the rejuvenation of a great nap and the deep emotional release of a good cry. It has this unexpected power to melt away what's no longer yours to keep and reconnect you squarely with the essence of who you are.

We'll begin by claiming our intentions for our practice. Then you will lie down and get comfy to begin a 45-minute breathwork journey, guided by a two-part pranayama breath, essential oils and music. You will use the fullness and healing power of each breath to feel your intentions, move through your limitations, nourish your nervous system, and deeply connect with your own energy and wisdom.

No previous experience is required, just a willingness to explore the process. While the breathing practice is different for everyone and each journey is unique, some benefits and experiences may include:

- emotional release and healing

- letting go of old stories, trauma, energy and experiences that no longer serve you

- a deeper connection to Self and Spirit

- tapping into to your intuition and strength

- reduced stress and anxiety

- improved sleep and ability to relax/rest

- feeling lighter, clearer and more joyful

WHAT YOU'LL NEED TO BRING:

- a yoga mat, blanket, and small pillow

- an eye mask (if you want to block out light)

- a water bottle

- a journal if you want to write about your experience

- an open mind and heart

- Please note: breathwork is most comfortable and effective when your stomach is not full. Please refrain from eating a heavy meal prior to the workshop.

Parking:
Free parking is available on Arapahoe right by the foot of the mountain hotel.
