We invite you to join us for this unique experience of breathing and feeling and letting go! We will work with a specific type of connected breathing that will give us the opportunity to process and integrate stuck emotions.
When we experience trauma in our lives, whether big or small, they are either processed or stored in the body. One way we limit feeling big feelings is to shut down areas of our breath. For example- holding your breath when you are upset. When we breathe fully, we touch in to the areas where we've stored emotions, so to not feel, we limit our breath. In this way, we avoid the pain, but we also limit our energy and experience of life. This breathing method gives us an opportunity to revisit those sore spots and feel the feelings so that we can move forward lighter and have more access to our full breathing capacity. We will breathe, cry and feel together in a safe and supportive environment.
Working with the breath has been a part of the Eastern tradition of yoga for a long time. The yogis understood that there is a direct connection between our breathing and our emotional/mental/physical well-being.
The breath session will be about an hour. The other 30 minutes includes an introduction to the session and time at the end for everyone to get grounded for the drive home and to share if that's in their personality.
Please bring a pillow, blanket, water. You'll be lying down the entire time, so wear clothes you are comfortable in. This is not a yoga class so there will be no movement required.
This group session is not recommended for people who have heart problems, asthma or severe mental disorders. These special conditions would require a 1 on 1 environment with an experienced leader.
