Breathwork is a mindful practice that uses specific breathing techniques to influence your physical, mental, and emotional state. By consciously changing your breath patterns, breathwork helps release tension, reduce stress, increase energy, and promote healing. It works by activating the body’s natural relaxation response and balancing the nervous system, allowing you to connect more deeply with yourself.

To get the most from your breathwork session, wear comfortable clothing (online: find a quiet, safe space where you won’t be disturbed). It’s best to avoid heavy meals and caffeine for a few hours beforehand. Do not consume alcohol or drugs 24h before.

During your breathwork session, the facilitator will first explain the specific breathing technique you’ll be using and guide you through the practice. You’ll then be supported to breathe consciously and safely, allowing your body and mind to relax or energize depending on the style. After the breathwork, there’s time for journaling and optional sharing to help process and integrate what arose during the session.
