Breathwork for Wellbeing - Stress Reduction and Anxiety Management

In our hectic lives and busy careers, we often experience stress, anxiety, feel tense and even overwhelmed. We instinctively know that taking a deep breath will help us to calm down. But there is more to breathing than meets the eye.

We breathe up to 25,000 times a day and it is the key bridge linking mind and body.

Breathing is scientifically proven to be the most important neuro-hacking tool, capable of helping us to manage and alleviate stress and anxiety, to create a calm and clear mind, to improve all aspects of physical health and even to boost cognitive performance such as concentration and memory.

In this experiential workshop, Melike will share the science behind breathing practices and their proven benefits on your wellbeing and mental health.

She will also share science-backed breathing practices designed to help you feel energised, grounded and centred. Through these practices you will be able to gain a sense of deep connection to your body and calm and declutter your busy mind - delivering immediately noticeable results within minutes.

About The Coach

Melike Hussein is a certified mindfulness teacher and conscious breathwork coach with a medical background as a qualified nurse.

She is the founder of BreathZone, serving bespoke mental health, wellbeing, performance management tools and coaching to individuals, groups, businesses and corporations.

She uniquely combines her holistic health expertise with science and medicine.

Melike’s holistic health journey started following 15 years of successful career as a finance director. A stress-induced burnout left her temporarily paralysed with loss of her speech and movement.

Astounded by the complete transformation in her body and mind within a short space of time thanks to conscious breathing and mindfulness practices; Melike was inspired to train in these natural modalities and share them with others.

This workshop will take place during a drawing exhibition - Art From Within by Esra Kizir Gokcen.

Esra started a one year challenge; drawing daily and sharing on social media as an invitation for all to enjoy the process of drawing and to share wellbeing through art. Now it's on display for you to enjoy and get inspired by.
