About this Event

A Return to Self — A Breathwork & Live-Looping Journey

with Victoria & Paul


A Return to Self is a transformational live experience where conscious connected breathwork and intuitive live looping blend into a single, living journey of presence, release, and inner remembrance.

This isn’t just a session; it’s a deep dive into the landscape within you.



About the Breathwork

Conscious connected breathwork is a powerful somatic practice that gently guides you into non-ordinary states of consciousness —a space where the thinking mind softens and the deeper layers of your being become accessible. Through circular, continuous breathing, the body begins to speak. Emotions that once felt stuck find room to move. Old tension unravels. New clarity rises to the surface.

It’s a journey of soft surrender, trusting that each breath holds the power to loosen what’s heavy and create space for what’s true.

This is a space where you’re safe to feel, safe to express, safe to witness yourself more deeply than the day-to-day allows.


Through somatic activation, continuous breath, and real-time intuitive sound, you’ll be invited to:

  • Release what’s been held inside - Let the breath gently reveal and soften old patterns stored in the body.
  • Be carried by intuitive, channeled sound - Paul’s live looping meets your inner landscape moment by moment, creating music that feels alive—responsive, emotional, grounding.
  • Reconnect with yourself - The quiet, clear place within you that never disappears—only waits to be remembered.
  • Access your intuitive knowing - As breath opens the body and sound opens the heart, innate wisdom emerges naturally, guiding you from within.


This experience is designed with deep care and nervous system awareness, offering support and spaciousness for whatever arises. You’re invited to move at your own pace, to feel only what feels true, and to meet yourself with gentleness throughout the journey.

Whether you’re new to breathwork or experienced, this fusion of breath and live sound invites something deeply personal—a moment of returning, reconnecting, remembering.
