What is Breathwork?

Breathwork is a highly personal, experiential process that uses breathing techniques to clear out physical, mental, and emotional blocks. The origin of most human behavioral difficulties is in very early childhood experiences. Early in life we learn to suppress our emotions physically by tensing muscles and restricting the breath. Over time, this protective process becomes chronic and automatic, and we lose the capacity to experience and express emotions. This repression can reduce our vitality and rob us of the ability to experience the positive feelings of love, joy, and pleasure.

Breathwork has been found to be a precise key to the body’s natural healing resources. It triggers a natural process of integration, cleansing, and purifying in the body, mind, and spirit. As the meeting ground between the conscious and the unconscious, it is useful in healing the split between these aspects of the psyche.

 

Workshop Agenda:

After group introductions, we will conduct two breathing sessions to music of approximately 80 minutes, each participant having a chance to experience the Breathwork as well as to hold space for a partner.  We will end with group sharing of any material that arose during the day.
