Regulate your nervous system with a guided Somatic Breathwork Journey

Thank you for signing up for a one hour Somatic Breathwork™ session.

Please read the below waiver to prepare for you session:

Somatic Breathwork™ is a full embodiment experience designed to help you release stress, trauma, emotions and pent up energy from the body. It is a modality that utilizes your own breath to help shed the layers of yourself that no longer serve.

Somatic Breathwork™ uses a circular diaphragmatic breath to tap into your body's innate inner intelligence to find the areas that need clearing. Coupling the breath with immersive music may result in different forms of cathartic emotional releases such as laughing, moving, crying, yelling, and shaking. All forms of expression are encouraged because it allows the body to move any stuck energy and create space for the second half of the breathwork session.

A gentler breathing technique is used in the second half of the session to help you connect with who you truly are. Together we can use the breath to call in how you want to show up in the world, the changes you want to embody, and allow you to see clearly what it would be like to live your best life.

Please allow 2 hours for the following:

• 15-30 minutes for Intake and overview of the Somatic Breathwork™ session
• 60 minutes for Somatic Breathwork™ session
• 15-30 minutes for Integration and sharing
• Optional 15 minute follow up call 3-5 days after session

YOU WILL NEED -> Water, a journal if that's something you find helpful, and try not to eat 1-2 hours before. Wear something breathable and comfy. I encourage you to create some space in your day after the session ends for a deeper integration!
