WHAT DO WE DO IN THE WORKSHOPS?

I share from my experience of travelling the world studying the breath, working with numerous teachers, doctors and practitioners and what I have discovered through my own daily practice of over 23 years.

It has lead me to experience the simplicity and power of the breath and how to work with it in a meditative way.

We explore the subtleties of the breath to see where there might be energetic blocks from trauma and unprocessed, unpleasant past experiences, which may affect you physically, mentally and emotionally.

I will share some subtle movements of the body that can help to free up the breath. We will do a shortened, cleansing breath Kriya as well as some different Pranayama (breath) practices, with which you can build your own regular practice for increased health and well-being.

One to One sessions are also available to help support this work.

TOGETHER IN THE PRACTICE WE WILL…

  • Learn how to undo some of the tensions you may be holding by working with the breath.
  • Connect with natural states of peace, health, and well-being through the breath.
  • Experience a deeper connection and basic understanding of functional breathing.
  • Access a powerful, natural healing tool of the breath.
  • Explore the subtle power and potency of the breath, working with the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system.
  • Experience the importance of diaphragmatic breathing and the effects of working with the pelvis, and spine on the breath.
  • Practice restoring the natural rhythm of the breath to allow the life force to flow freely.

PLUS EXPLORE THE DIFFERENT ENERGIES OF THE IN AND OUT BREATH TO SUPPORT A HEALTHY BALANCED NERVOUS SYSTEM

The workshops provide an opportunity for us to delve deeper into the relationship of the breath with the nervous system. Both with subtle movement exploring the connection of the breath with the body. We also share some simple breath exercises that be used in a daily self practice.

In the group breath work sessions you can go beyond the conscious mind to explore old unconscious patterns using the breath to help let go of past pain and conditioning that keeps us separate and restricted.

The process of rhythmic breathing in a breath kriya can result in a deep experience. Practitioners are advised to feel ready for these kind of practices that can unlock and release suppressed memories, emotions and feelings. Participants often report a profound sense of peace and contentment from practicing.
