What is breathwork and why do we do it?!
Breathwork helps to calm stress and bring your body back into balance. It's different from meditation because we are breathing more consciously/ focusing on specific breathing patterns.
Breathwork is trendy right now, but it’s not new. People have been practicing breathwork for thousands of years as it has roots in yoga practice. The basic idea of breathwork is to release toxins and stress when you breathe out and nourish your mind and body when you breathe in.
Some of the long-term physical and mental benefits of consistent breathwork are:
- Reduced stress, overwhelm, and anxiety because you're releasing stress hormones and stuck emotions from your body
- Heightened energy
- Lowers inflammation in the body & balances blood pressure
- Improved sleep
- Strengthened immune system functionality
- Promotes weight loss and increases exercise tolerance
And SO much more!
These sessions are designed for and will be beneficial to anyone from beginner, aka someone who has never tried breathwork, to advanced, aka someone who frequently practices breathwork. Also, this is open to women AND men!!
How it works
Here’s an overview of what you can expect from our first breathwork experience together:
- An in-depth explanation of the benefits of breathwork, how the session will flow, and safety precautions
- 22-28 minutes of breathwork including; a visualization meditation to ease you into the experience, along with 2 or 3 rounds of rhythmic breathing with extended breath holding on the bottom and top (I will explain more what this all means in the session)
- An opportunity for reflection and sharing towards the end, so bring your notebooks and pens for this!
