A DAY OF HEALING THROUGH INTEGRATIVE BREATHWORK

Once again our tribe of wonderful like minded people get together to do this amazing inner work. Finally, after several difficult years, Shawna, Duff, and I are very excited to be in your presence again on Saturday June 3rd 2023.
Ever wonder why our busy mind does not permit us to slow down and let go of all those emotions that have been building up deep inside of us? It is because we have learned to live with so much external stimulation that we have created an intellect to protect our internal vulnerabilities and emotions.
You and I have probably at one time or another talked about integrative breathwork. This is a very exciting and powerful psycho-spiritual therapeutic method developed by Jacquelyn Small LMSW in which a guided meditative journey of evocative music and deep breathing removes us from our ordinary state of consciousness, where we are anchored by how we see, breathe and hear. By altering these factors, our intellect "recedes" to allow us to open to reminders of being our greater self, and to heal cellular memories that have been repressed, carrying us into a state of wholeness.
For beginning "Breathers" and for regulars who "Breathe" often (yes...we know...we all breathe!) "Breathwork" often becomes a treasured time and place to process...to connect with ourself...for ourself only. To get clear about who we are...right now. And potentially grasp insight and clarity about our next right step in this change-y unpredictable world...especially if we're in a stage of transition. And who isn't right now!
Each *Breathwork Process" - deep breathing in the beginning to reach a meditative state, evocative music to carry you along on an inner journey, artwork and group sharing - opens our creative imagination to glimpses of the future, as well as healing aspects of the past that could keep us from living true to ourself...a filled- up human being with much to give to the world and those we love. Not only does this work enlarge any therapeutic process. It is enormously effective in the healing of addictions and is widely used in addiction treatment facilities to effectively remove and heal the source of addictive behavior.
Many people ask how the work is done. So please note: Unlike other "breathwork" processes that you may have heard of or experienced (like rebirthing or integral breathwork), Integrative Breathwork is NOT about deep breathing constantly throughout the process! We deep breathe only in the beginning to carry ourselves into a meditative trance state.
Here's how it rolls: You will want to bring a yoga mat or similar cushioning pad, quilts, blankets, pillows and your personal journal. Please wear comfortable yoga-type clothes. And eat a light meal on the morning of the workshop and during the day.
Tea and snacks will be provided. There will be a one-hour break for lunch and restaurants within easy driving distance. Our setting is extraordinarily tranquil and beautiful, both inside and within the 5-acre walking paths, with many secluded benches on the grounds. In order to take advantage of the expansive space, we recommend that you consider bringing your own lunch. There is a kitchen available for our use.
Cost for full day is $200.00. You can make a Paypal or Zelle payment to [email protected] or [email protected]. Checks can be made out to Path of Direct Experience (PODE) or Dirk Magdahl and mailed to Dirk Magdahl Ph.D at South Texas Behavioral Medicine, 12050 Vance Jackson, Suite 201, San Antonio Texas 78230. We need to have secure numbers 2 WEEKS BEFORE THE WORKSHOP so we can hire another facilitator if necessary.
