Come join us for Embodied Breath + Movement - a guided journey that combines the power of breathwork with the freedom of movement. In this session we will unlock the spine and allow energy to flow through the body from the core to its edges. This in-person gathering will help you connect with your body, release tension, and tap into your inner strength.

Conscious Connected Breathwork is a type of breathing method that removes the pause between the inhale and exhale, gently increasing oxygen in the body and the brain. Through a diaphragmatic, nose-inhale breath cycle we are able to engage with our parasympathetic nervous system, the rest & restore state. While in this restorative state, we are able to experience longer journeying, heal more deeply, and ultimately receive the benefits of rest. In this workshop, we encourage free-form, uninhibited breathwork within a nourishing space that includes post-breath processing and integration. It is important to note that with Conscious Connected Circular Breathwork and the increase of oxygen, we are entering into an expanded (or non-ordinary) state of consciousness which allows us to shift the brainwave pattern.
