Therapeutic Breathwork, or Conscious Connected Breathing is a practice developed to bring about deep change. By facilitating movement through the different kinds of repression that limit our ability to fully experience life; breathwork works to identify and integrate both the physical and psychic parts of ourselves. Modern trauma research confirms that repression lives in the body, on a deep level, sometimes hard to find; even in the most dedicated efforts to diagnose and treat.​

This style of Breathwork is akin to holotropic breathing; holotropic meaning “moving towards wholeness”. It is an active meditation, with the breath, that brings us into an expanded state of consciousness. In a cyclic, slightly-faster-than-normal-paced breathing pattern, we breathe to a set of curated musical accompaniment that supports and augments the experience.Therapeutic Breathwork is an effective and powerful tool for exploring ourselves; traversing the emotional, physical, and energetic bodies. This conscious practice allows what may be buried in the psyche, or embedded within the structure of the body, to arise and be processed in a safe and supportive container. It allows us to be in our bodies; held in a space of radical presence and Self-nurturing.

Oftentimes we are left feeling lighter, spacious, grounded and aligned after the session. Breathwork is a powerful and accessible tool for those of us who struggle with anxiety, stress, depression, substance use, pain, grief, trauma, insomnia, and more. It is also a great tool for encountering the Self, ever-more intimately, while building self-love, agency, and empowerment. I’ve experienced Breathwork transform many lives, as it has my own.
