About the class

Breathwork is a magical portal to transform how we feel.

We exist in a society that is designed keep us in an anxious state, with our sympathetic nervous system chronically switched on, and the organs of the body contracted. This state makes it near impossible to be present, grounded and landed in our reality.

Through changing and manipulating the breath we can regulate our emotions, manage stress, and reduce anxiety by naturally releasing different hormones. It is a pathway to dive deep into the nervous system, reset our state of being, and land back into the present moment.

B R E A T H E offers an introductory exploration of breathwork and the neuroscience behind it. We begin with a guided practice of high oxygen and low oxygen breath techniques as a way to access stillness. Then we will dive into the neuroscience, learning how the breath affects the nervous system, the physiology of respiration, and how the hormones released change our state of being after breathwork.

There will be plenty of time for questions so you can leave with a new understanding and awareness of the power of your breath. After the workshop you will receive a recorded breathwork practice and hand out of the science covered so you can come back to the breath whenever you need.

This workshop is offered with inclusivity and accessibility in mind and is open to all.
