Workshop Description

Breathwork

Breathwork is a mind-body exercise that helps make us more aware of our breath and provides a grounding effect, helping to release tension and stress. It also promotes clarity, emotional regulation, and restores equilibrium to the body, supporting recovery from physical and mental stressors. People have used breathwork to improve their immune system, analyze their thoughts and emotions, heal emotional trauma, and gain new perspectives and life skills. Some types of breathwork are: Shamanic, vivation, transformative, and holotropic. Breathwork is often found to encourage profound relaxation or to leave one feeling rejuvenated. Although breathwork therapy has numerous advantages, it does affect the physiology, so before starting any breathwork practice, check with your physician, especially if you are pregnant or nursing, have any medical condition, or if you take medication that might be impacted by the technique. Then keep track of how you respond to any breathwork techniques, and stop using them if you notice any negative effects. There are various breathwork techniques: you might want to experiment with a few different approaches to decide which method speaks to you and brings a positive outcome.
