Somatic Breathwork & Nervous System Regulation Certification

Somatic Breathwork & Nervous System Regulation Certification
Instructor: Dr. Rachael Muster
Duration: 8.5 Hours (9:00 AM – 5:30 PM)
What if the missing piece isn't mindset...
...it's your nervous system?
Most people know what they should do.
Slow down.
Breathe.
Stay present.
But when the nervous system is dysregulated, knowing isn't enough.
This certification teaches practitioners how to use breath intentionally to support nervous system regulation—for themselves and for the people they serve.
Breath is one of the most precise tools we have for influencing the nervous system. When facilitated with skill, awareness, and attunement, breath becomes a powerful pathway for regulation, clarity, resilience, and embodied presence.
This certification qualifies for Yoga Alliance Continuing Education credits and is approved by the Ohio Counselor, Social Worker and Marriage and Family Therapist Board for continuing education. CE Broker Provider #20-1350446.

Description
The Somatic Breathwork & Nervous System Regulation Certification is designed to help practitioners confidently facilitate breathwork through the lens of nervous system regulation.
You will learn how to guide breath intentionally—understanding when, why, and how specific breathing patterns influence physiological, emotional, and energetic states.
Rather than emphasizing breath as an intensity-based or cathartic practice, this training focuses on precision, adaptability, and facilitation skill.
You'll learn how to:
• Use breath as both a regulator and an activator
• Read the body's responses in real time
• Guide individuals and groups through safe, effective, and sustainable breath experiences
• Adapt your approach to different nervous system states
While trauma-informed principles are woven throughout the training, this is not a trauma-specialization. Instead, you'll develop the awareness and practical skills needed to facilitate breathwork responsibly across a wide range of clients and settings.
