Breathwork Series

Unlock the Power of Breathwork

Facilitator: Sara N.

In the Breathwork Series of workshops, participants will learn a range of breathing techniques designed to aid in regulating their parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems by controlling different stages of the breath. These practices are particularly beneficial for managing stress, regulating emotion and inducing the relaxation response.

The Breathwork Series of workshops are designed to be progressive. Starting with fundamental techniques which cover elementary breath control and enable participants to observe and explore its effect on their mind, mood and body. When participants are comfortable with foundational practices, they can explore more rigorous techniques taught in the advanced workshops, which draw largely upon Pranayama (Yogic Breathing) and mindfulness systems. These exercises, passed down for millennia, are powerful tools which can be used to manage stress, improve mental clarity and increase vitality.

This step-by-step progression ensures that each participant builds a solid foundation before exploring more sophisticated breathing methods, allowing for a more comprehensive understanding of how breathwork can be used and incorporated into their wellness routines.
