What is Breathwork?

Breathwork is a guided breathing practice that helps you access altered states of awareness, release emotional tension, and reconnect with your body, mind, and spirit.Through intentional breathing, it becomes possible to tap into the body's natural ability to heal and reset.

What Happens in a Breathwork Session?

A typical session involves lying down, closing your eyes, and being guided through specific breathing patterns-often set to music. You may experience a range of sensations: from tingling in the body, to emotional release, to deep states of calm or clarity. Each journey is unique, and there's no "right" way to experience it.

Is It Safe?

Yes, breathwork is generally safe for most people. However, if you have health concerns like heart issues, epilepsy, or are in the midst of acute mental health challenges, speak with your doctor or facilitator before joining a session. Always share any relevant info beforehand so the space can support you fully.

Do I Need Experience?

None at all. Breathwork is for everyone. Whether you're brand new or have explored other healing modalities, breathwork meets you where you're at.

Will I Lose Control?

No. You're in control the whole time. Unlike substances or plant medicine, breathwork is entirely natural and self-directed. Emotions may rise-but so does your capacity to move through them.

What Might I Feel?

Some common experiences include:
• Tingling or energy moving through your body
• Emotions surfacing (like tears, laughter, or joy)
• Insights, visuals, or vivid memories
• A sense of peace, stillness, or spaciousness

It's all welcome, and it's all part of the process.

How Should I Prepare?

Wear comfy clothes, bring water, a journal, and maybe a blanket or eye mask. Create a space where you can relax, let go, and feel safe to explore.

Can Breathwork Help with Anxiety or Trauma?

Yes. Breathwork helps regulate the nervous system and move stuck emotional energy. Many people have found it a profound support for anxiety, burnout, grief, and unprocessed trauma.

How Will I Feel After?

After a session, people often feel clear, grounded, and lighter. Some feel emotional or tired-this is totally normal. Be kind to yourself, rest if needed, and journal about what came up. Integration is part of the magic.

How Often Should I Do Breathwork?

That depends on your intention. Some people practice breathwork weekly, while others attend a session every month or seasonally. Trust your own rhythm. You'll know when it's time to breathe again.

Curious to try it for yourself?

Whether you're seeking clarity, release, or reconnection, breathwork is a beautiful tool to meet yourself in a whole new way-one breath at a time.
