FREE: Somatic Breathwork Introductory session - Online

This online session is for you who are new to my work, or if you want to strengthen your confidence with the techniques. As well as if you are keen to do the work but are not in a position to invest financially at present.

Please only reserve your place if you are going to attend. If you book and can't make it for any reason please cancel your booking so it's available for someone else.

This is an experiential session and is available to you in the comfort of your own home. Please have a clear space free of distractions and please allow at least half an hour of free time after the session for integration and reflection. This is an important part of getting the most out of the experience and allowing it to be integrated in a good way, so it can be genuinely useful for you.

About the techniques we will be using:

The primary breathwork technique we will be using is called conscious connected breathing from Rebirthing Breathwork. It is the same core technique used in all transformational healing breathwork modalities and although many breathwork practices can be done alone it is strongly advised that this technique is practiced with support in the beginning as it can bring up a lot of emotions and energy stored in the body. It is a simple yet powerful way to move out of the linear mind, release limiting beliefs and emotions, and free up the life force energy that was being used to hold them in place.

The Somatic practices used are a blend of Mindfulness, Yoga Nidra, and Shamanic practices. This way of working builds a powerful bridge between your breath, your body, and your awareness, which as well as being fundamental to the process is also useful in daily life.

Building this bridge between these deep inner experiences and your daily life, where you spend most of your time, is the core intention of the practice so that it is genuinely useful and not just a one-off experience.

The fundamental premise of this work is that you have access to a vast wisdom that is the intelligence of life itself. The practices we will be using are to support you to connect with that innate intelligence within, reconnecting to your soul nature as part of nature. This is immensely healing, aligning, and empowering, and is the intention embedded in this session and all my offerings.

There are the 3 core principles that are the foundation of the practice:

RESOURCE:

Bring awareness into your body and connect to the innate healing capacity within you that knows exactly what's ready to heal.

RELEASE:

Anything that limits you and is ready to move from the mental, physical, energetic, and emotional levels of your being.

RENEW:

Your connection to potent life force energy, insight, creativity, and power that is available to you in every moment, in every breath.

Flow of the Session:

We begin with an opening circle where you will be introduced to the techniques and we will then move into the Breathwork. The techniques are simple yet profound and you will have the opportunity to ask any questions to make sure you are clear on how to use them.

The conscious connected breathing is then done sitting or lying down and you are supported verbally, physically, and energetically, as well as with music. You are guided through the process and encouraged to move, shake, sound, and allow anything to be released that is no longer serving you. This then opens the possibility for healing, transformation, and insights to arise. It is also an opportunity to send prayers and good energy to others and the world.

During the Session, you will naturally connect to the innate wisdom within as the different parts of the brain light up the familiar linear frontal cortex becomes less active. To benefit most from the experience you will be encouraged to let go of all thoughts, feelings, emotions, and sensations, and give them back to this inner intelligence through the breath and body.

The final and most important part of the experience is the integration. This is where your system is allowed to settle and any spaces that have been created from anything that’s been released can be filled with clear, fresh, life-force energy to nourish and renew you from the inside out.

To complete there will be a brief sharing circle to gather everyone back together and reconnect with words before closing the session.
