Breathwork is the term used to refer to any type of breathing exercises or techniques. Breathwork is performed to improve mental health, physical health, and spiritual well-being by intentionally changing your breathing pattern.

Think of breathwork as a remote control that can instantly change the state of your nervous system. In this example, the state of your nervous system relates to your state of being. In other words, breathwork can instantly change the state of your being giving you a direct response on how your body feels. 

There are several benefits of breathwork which makes these breathing exercises an important technique you should master. Breathwork can:

•         help with finding calmness and peace in phases of high stress 
•         boost your immunity
•         help you process emotions, heal emotional pain and trauma
•         develop or increase self-awareness
•         improve relationships
•         increase confidence, self-image, and self-esteem
•         increase joy and happiness
•         overcome addictions
•         reduce stress and anxiety levels
•         release negative thoughts

Consider breathwork as being a massage for the soul. It’s a natural process allowing your mind and body to detox. The experience is very different for everyone but people compare it to either an immense emotional release, offering insights to major questions or also a drug-like experience of happiness (getting high on your own supply in a healthy way) and union with everything around them.

Please wear comfortable clothes (yoga-style clothing is perfect). For maximum benefit from each session, practice breathwork laying down, don’t practice while driving or in water. Please make sure you are in an undisturbed place, you have your yoga mat or somewhere cosy to lay or sit, a blanket (if needed) and good headphones available. It is also important to not have a heavy meal before the session.
