HOLOTROPIC BREATHWORK 2 nights retreat @ ORR Hot Springs, Ukiah 9 spots

Holotropic Breathwork is a highly experiential work recommended for those interested in their personal and spiritual growth through deep inner exploration. Stan Grof's basic concept is that the wisdom of our 'inner healer' will direct us and bring to our consciousness what is best and most healing for us at any given moment.

This retreat also offers the opportunity to practice the 'role of the sitter' according to the requirements of the Holotropic Breathwork training and, possibly, other psychedelic-assisted therapy trainings.
