Breath is the essence of life.

Private and group sessions last around one hour and thirty minutes to two hours depending on the breathwork pattern. The first part is an open discussion to help frame our work together, set any intentions, and learn the breathwork pattern. During the second part, you will lay down as I guide you through the active breathwork practice for 25 minutes. During this time, music will be playing, and I will be utilizing oils, incense, and touch (upon consent). We will close our time together with a little conversation and reflection.

Each Breathwork session is unique, and experiences can be different for each individual or from one Breathwork session to the next. Common experiences include tingling, vibrating, temperature changes, weightiness and/ or a floating sensation, and emotional release.

Afterwards you might feel energized, clear, calm, and connected. This practice is one of my very favorites for physical, emotional, spiritual, and energetic release, expansion, and deeper sense of embodiment and presence.

Breathwork is for everyone! You needn’t believe any specific beliefs or have any background in these modalities, I will teach you everything you need to know during the session.

If you are pregnant, have experienced a traumatic brain injury and/or seizes, are epileptic, are on antipsychotic medication or have any other concerns, please consult your doctor before booking a session.

This work may be for you if:

You feel stuck or unhappy.

You want to cultivate self-love.

You feel drawn, but aren’t sure why.

You are working on something specific.

You are in search of your inner child.

You feel like you could benefit from a release.

You want to get more in touch with your emotions.

You feel disconnected or ungrounded and you want a shift.

You want to let go of anxiety, depression, grief, stress or anger.

You want to move through embodied traumatic experiences.

In Yoga tradition, practitioners have been aware of the power of breath for thousands of years. Richard P. Brown and Patricia L. Gerbarg published in Yoga Breathing, Meditation, and Longetivity.

Psychiatrists and neurologists at Boston University, University of South Carolina, and other Universities are researching and noticing the profound effects of breathwork with clinically diagnosed individuals with depression and anxiety. 

Andrew Huberman, Ph.D. a Stanford neuroscientist, studies breathing and its relationship to stress response. Other performance coaches, such as Jason Amoroso, are sharing it with professional athletes. 

Wim Hof featured in Discover magazine, who practices a different type of Breathwork, showed in a 2014 scientific study, that when injected with an inflammatory agent, Breathwork patients experienced lower levels of inflammation that would normally accompany receiving the injection. 

According to Gay Hendricks, PhD, a Dutch Study compared two groups of heart attack patients. The first group was taught simple diaphragmatic breathing, while the second group was given no training in breathing. The breathing group had no further heart attacks, while 7 of the 12 members of the second group had second heart attacks over the next two years. 

Jack Shield, MD conducted a study on the effects of breathing on the lymphatic system. Using cameras inside the body, he found that deep diaphragmatic breathing stimulated the cleansing of the lymph system by creating a vacuum effect, which sucked the lymph through the bloodstream. This increased the rate of toxic elimination by as much as 15 times the normal pace.

Neuroscientists are studying how different ways of breathing are engaging different parts of the brain, change the brain and improve performance, especially in stressful situations.

Dr. Arthur C. Guyton, Dr. Dean Ornish, Dr. Andrew Weil and Dr. Deepak Chopra have shared about the benefits of active breathing on public level.

I have been practicing breathwork since 2018. The first time I practiced this two-part pranayama technique, I released years of trauma out of my body. I knew if I continued this practice and then eventually shared it with clients, I could put myself out of a job. Which gave me even more reason to continue this practice, because as much as I love working with my clients, my deepest desire is for them to feel as empowered as possible when working with me. I want my clients to truly feel and know what it’s like to “heal” and transform themselves. My job is to hold the space for this transformation. 

I have completed trainings under David Elliot and Sara Silverstein. I have also attended a few trainings studying Neurodynamic Breathwork under Michael Stone.

Breathwork groups are a wonderful way to connect and be in community with this deeply transformative healing work. We open our circle with a brief check-in. The group breathes together as I lead the active breath. I guide the group as a whole, and am always nearby for any concerns or needs that arise. Essential oils and other tools are used to help ground, release and clear energy.

We finish with a restorative rest period, allowing for a deeper experience that infuses the transformative healing of our session into your body. You will leave feeling the love, interconnectedness and light of healing in a group setting.
