Conscious Connected Breathwork for Stress Relief

We are really excited to be hosting a regular lunchtime Breathwork session at Intra-Bristol, Willway Yard which is nestled in evolving and vibrant Bedminister in Bristol.

What is Conscious Connected Breathwork?

It is a specific style of breathwork using a deep, circular pattern with retentions. We use music throughout the session to really allow you to immerse yourself in this deep Breathwork practise and shut out the outside world.

One of our wonderful Certified Breathwork Facilitators will guide you through the whole session; you stay consciously engaged with each inhale and exhale which will lead to a powerful and insightful experience.

What are the benefits?

As we all know modern life is busy and often overwhelming.

Breathwork offers a chance to pause, reconnect with your body, and release tension, stored emotions, or stagnant energy, leaving you feeling physically and emotionally lighter. It can help you feel more resilient, with greater capacity, clarity, focus, and calm both at work and at home.

Over time, it also supports a deeper connection with yourself and strengthens your sense of self trust and self-leadership, we therefore encourage you to come along to more than one session to truly feel its benefits.

What do I need for the session?

Intra-Bristol is a lovely, well stocked studio and have yoga mats, eye pillows and blankets however if you would like to bring your own - you are most welcome to do so. You’ll need to lie down so please wear comfy, non-restrictive clothing. Have some water on hand and come with an open mind.

What is the structure of the session?

The session begins with a brief introduction to Conscious Connected Breathing, a demo of the pattern and time to answer any questions that may arise. You’ll then get comfortable lying down with eyes closed, followed by a short grounding exercise. We’ll move into 2–3 rounds of breathing to music, with optional guided breath retentions, then finish with a guided visualisation and reading while you relax deeply to music.

What to expect during a session:

As Conscious Connected Breathwork is a deep and powerful modality, it may therefore affect you phyiscally, emotionally and mentally. For further information please refer to our website.
