What is Breathwork?
One of the earliest forms of breathwork can be traced back thousands of years to the Ancient Indian practice of Pranayama - meaning controlling life force and breath for spiritual growth.
Breathwork can be defined as the use of breath awareness and conscious breathing for the transformation of the mind, the body, and the spirit. It’s a self healing method that can help us reconnect to the body, awaken our hearts, calm the mind, regulate the nervous system, develop our intuitive sense, expand our consciousness, and learn more about ourselves. It can help us increase our resilience to stress, release emotions and trauma that our body is holding onto, increase energy, focus, and performance. It can help us to others on deeper level as it’s a vehicle for personal and spiritual growth and evolution… and so much more.
