Psychedelic Expansive Breathwork

Expanding consciousness for growth and healing, through conscious, connected breathwork.

“Truly transformational. I had no expectations or any idea of what to expect. The whole experience really blew me away” – M

What are the potential benefits of Psychedelic Expansive Breathwork?

• Release - accessing and letting go of emotions or trauma
• Deep rest - stress relief and relaxation
• Healing - gently releasing trauma or letting go of blocks
• Health - improved immunity
• Mind - increased cognitive flexibility
• Insights - clarity and insights on personal process
• Expanded states of consciousness - connection to the mystical and beyond
• Community - share with other people interested in expanded states of consciousness

In this 3-hour immersive workshop you will be safely guided and supported by two qualified Psychedelic-Assisted Therapists into a deeply embodied conscious, connected breathwork session.

Through activating breathing to loud, curated music you can access different physical and emotional states. This workshop can also be a helpful opening if you are preparing for a psychedelic retreat or as a safe, accessible alternative.

Using the breath to reach expanded states of consciousness is not a new concept, many ancient cultures see the breath as a connection to spirit, god or life energy. The breath is with us every moment of our lives and most of the time we do not place our attention on it, yet when we harness its power through intentional use it can have a powerful and profound effect.

Breathwork is seeing a revival due to its transformational potential, safety, and simplicity. In Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy we understand that the 'set & setting' is an essential part of the therapeutic nature of expanded states. In this workshop you will be given preparation practices plus ongoing free online integration circles.

Please note: This is a breathwork workshop, we will not be working with psychedelic substances. The word 'psychedelic' translates as 'soul revealing' and this is what we are exploring.

Safety: You will need to complete a short health questionnaire to attend this event. Please read your confirmation email.

But what kind of breathwork is this?

The resurgence of breathwork in the west started with Stan Grof, a psychiatrist who held over 4500 therapeutic LSD sessions with patients in clinical research settings, and his wife Christina. They developed Holotropic Breathwork as a response to the ban of psychedlic substances and all research in the 1970's as a way to reach expanded states of consciousness, without the substances. Since then many breathwork modalities have taken the world by storm.

In this session we will be engaging with a popular method called Conscious, Connected Breathwork (CCB). A simple technique that helps us to focus on the breath and body and allow our thinking minds to take a break. We breathe through an open mouth generally, unless there are health reasons to adapt the breath, music will be used as a carrier wave through the session and you will be encouraged to listen to your body.

These workshops are greatly informed by some incredible experiences with various breathwork modalities including Holotropic Breathwork and my training and work as a Integrative Breathwork Facilitator and a Psychedelic-Asssited Therapist.
