Breathwork

 

“It seemed as if circumstances in all areas of life exploded in the days following the breathwork session. It may have “uncorked” something that previously left my life in a state of inertia.”

Naomi T.

The Breathwork practice I facilitate is a 2 stage Pranayama style breath meditation created by David Elliott.

In 1:1 sessions and groups, I hold space for you and guide you through a releasing and opening process.

This practice supports you in coming home to yourself and witnessing internal states looking for attention.

Our lived experiences, the history of our ancestral lineages and our soul's memory is embedded in our cells and can trap us in old habits and limiting beliefs until we bring awareness to them.

If at any point in life we did not feel safe or supported to move through our emotions they became imprinted in the body.

Much like the brain retains memories so too does the body.

When we don’t have the proper room to feel our emotions and let them move through us, they become stuck and stagnant in our body. This can lead to a host of imbalances and symptoms.

This dynamic breathing meditation is an active healing process that supports you to transform energies, emotions and beliefs that are ready to evolve.

This breathwork practice creates space in the body by clearing stuck emotional energy and states of charge.

It opens a direct line to clarity, intuition and creative instincts.

This breathwork style reminds the body how to rebuild from the center and ultimately find freedom. When we hold space for ourselves to witness our breath, our emotion, our fear, our physical pain, our stress patterns – alchemy happens.

  • + Muscles and fascia holding on to trauma from physical injuries
    + Stress patterns
    + Emotional trauma (and we’ve all experienced emotional trauma on some level: loss, fear of being seen, being let down etc)
    + A backlog of years of grief taking up precious space in your energy field and body
    + Beliefs and habits no longer in your highest good

  • + Getting you out of your head and into your heart
    + Becoming more clear on creative ideas as you tune into your intuition
    + Moving through blocks and stuck energy
    + Balancing your nervous system
    + Finding your boundaries
    + Showing you how it feels to be in your home frequency and embody your core essence
    + Grounding your soul/spirit/essence in your body
    + Healing your womb center from sexual trauma and support fertility

  • “When I began the session, I was so tense my back hardly made contact with the floor. After a while I started experiencing what felt like muscle spasms in my left chest. I had a revelation about how hard the left side of my body was working to uphold the right, for which I was then recovering from a serious orthopedic injury, and how hard my heart had been working in the face of the severity.

    Sometimes the best thing for the overburdened is to simply give permission to release the tension, attachments, and habits that led to the experience of pain and illness in the body- a statement easy to make but often so difficult to achieve.

    I reached inner conclusions of how imbalances in my life led to the outer manifestation of my injury. In synchronistic timing I witnessed my own energy re-entering my body the moment before Lindsay instructed me to open my eyes. By this time, in contrast to the beginning of the session, my body had relaxed so much it was glued down. I did not expect to achieve such insight. It helped me understand perspectives of how I’ve been handling things versus how I’d like to start handling them.

    It seemed as if circumstances in all areas of life exploded in the days following the session. It may have “uncorked” something that previously left my life in a state of inertia. The most significant of these was that new and old associations began approaching me at the same time to ask me for help and guidance; the kind of help I am most effective at giving. To be able to give back has been my most rewarding experience following the session, and this phenomenon seems to be continuing and growing. I look forward to what this may bring, which so far has been a brand new level of trust and community.” – Naomi T.

  • There is a deep power and beauty hidden in grief. There is also sadness and anger that often covers grief. Grief is multi-dimensional. Grief confronts us with our humanity. Making room for our grief changes us. Irrevocably. It cracks our heart open. Facing it provides us with resource. And it shows us part of our soul through our willingness to be vulnerable to life.

    This breathwork is really good with helping clear out the cobwebs and make space to be with grief that is both ancient and current.

 

“I did a similar breathwork practice at a yoga festival once, I did not have nearly as profound an experience. You reeeaaaalllly know how to create a container! Your framing helped ground the practice IN my body…so easy for these practices to take people out. And the timing of your cues/reminders was perfect in aiding me into just the right amount of release. I caught a glimpse of my eyes in the mirror and whoa - they look so much brighter/clearer.”
