What is the invitation to breathe? 

My invitation to breathe is a 45 minute breathwork journey where you will be lying down and breathing an open-mouthed circular breath pattern as I guide you, 1:1 or group, through the music.  

What is breathwork? 

Breathwork is a term that refers generally to the various practices of controlled, conscious breathing for mental, physical, and spiritual evolving.  There are many different types of breathing patterns and breath practices in modern breathwork offerings.  Some breathwork patterns can be self-guided (e.g. box-breathing) and some require a facilitator to guide you (e.g. Holotropic breathwork).  Conscious breath practice has its roots in ancient cultures and religions going back thousands of years, like the yogic practices, Tibetan Buddhist meditation, traditional Eastern shamanism, and martial arts practices.  

Why breathwork? 

The benefits of conscious breathwork practice affect our mind/body, mental/emotional, energetic/spiritual well-being. I offer breathwork journeys to my community because I believe in its power to help us evolve to our most whole selves.  The journey is inward and sacred - you are trusting your body to bring to the surface what is ready to be seen and integrated. With each journey, you open up more to expansion, self-inquiry, creativity, acceptance, equanimity.  With the breath, you help clear the fog and find your clarity, which in the end is having a clear view of your own Light.

For myself, building a relationship with my breath has resulted in paradigm shifts on multiple levels - physically, mentally, spiritually.  Spending time in conscious breath practice is how I anchor during a wave of triggered emotions and how I re-orient around what matters most to me, which is to experience this life as authentically as I am capable. It is also how I was able to manage extreme physical pain pre-and post-hysterectomy. Spiritually, conscious breath practice invites spaciousness within and the more spacious I am, the more I am able to identify the constructs that hold me back from connection and love. Conscious breathwork practices help me integrate parts of me that I have hidden, suppressed, forgotten.  And what I am discovering is that the more I am able to integrate, the more I am present in this moment, in this experience, in this relationship.   May you also find peace on this journey with your Breath.
