Learn The Technique

A powerful self-help and self-healing breathing practice that helps people access deeper levels of the body and mind to consciously influence their physical, mental and emotional well-being.

The breathing is primarily open-mouthed, full breaths that rise up from the abdomen into the chest and head in a wave-like motion. There are also holds, or suspensions of the breath. The breathing process focuses on directing energy to flow up through the body and energetic chakra system to the crown of the head. This process helps to restore the natural energetic flow patterns of the body and emotions, and can even help to resolve traumas. It cleanses, detoxifies, increases mental clarity, increases the feel good hormones (endorphins, oxytocin, serotonin, dopamine) to create feelings of well-being on a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual level.

Many people report some great benefits after attending just one session of the weekly free class. The benefits increase over time as people improve their command of the technique and practice regularly.

There are a variety of breathing techniques, modern and ancient. Breathwork practices are used to help to establish a deeper self-awareness and connection to the body, emotions and spirit. They are known to enhance physical, mental and emotional  health, healing and spiritual well-being.

Breathwork is a powerful self-help tool that is used to awaken a greater self-awareness and a sense of self-empowerment. Research indicates that 20 to 60 minutes of breathing can significantly help diminish anxiety, improve sleep, reduce inflammation, induce relaxation and meditative states, and strengthen the immune system.

Breathwork has a direct and immediate impact on our health and well-being, and it is accessible to everyone. There are many scientific findings that illustrate the benefits of breathwork to diminish anxiety, improve sleep, and even strengthen the immune system. It’s also an effective way to access Alpha and Theta brain wave states where deep relaxation and meditative states are experienced.

There are many resources to learn about how to do breathwork practices, particularly online. Some techniques are simple and easy to learn on your own at home, while other methods require qualified guidance from a breathing instructor.

There are many breathwork techniques for manipulating the breath to get some desired result. Some are easy to learn on your own at home, and others require guidance from a trained breathworker. A simple daily practice of about 20 minutes of slow, rhythmical deep breathing in and out of your abdomen is one effective way to relax the body and mind and create a healthy pattern of breathing. Listening to soothing music can enhance the experience.

There are many benefits of breathwork, but some of the most impressive benefits of about 20 – 30 minutes of sustained, rhythmical breathing 1) alkalizes the blood ph, 2) increases muscle tone by artificially creating low blood calcium and increasing motor and sensory neuronal activity, and 3) reduces inflammation by causing an increase in adrenaline in the blood to activate the innate immune system to increase anti-inflammatory activity. It has also been shown to 4) reduce stress, 5) elevate your mood and improve hormonal function.

Generally speaking, breathing is good for everyone, and there are many benefits of a regular breathing practice. But individuals can have specific needs and limitations on the types of breathwork they can do based on their health. So if you have any health issues or concerns, such as a history of cardiovascular issues, such as high blood pressure, or are currently taking medications, please consult with your doctor or health professional before starting a breathwork practice.

A regular and daily habit of about 20 or more minutes of conscious breathwork is safe for most people. While there are many forms of breathwork practices, conscious breathwork is recognized for having many benefits when practiced consistently. It can increase self-awareness of the body and mind and empower the breather by experiencing the power of their own breath to improve physical, mental and spiritual well-being. If you have any health concerns or questions, consult with your doctor and a breathing instructor for guidance.
