Holotropic Breathwork & Optional Integration

You can attend just the breathwork on Saturday only or, attend Saturday and the Integration half day on Sunday, from 1:00 to 5 pm. (Highly recommended ! )

Grof Holotropic Breathwork is a method that uses the power of the breath, evocative music and focused release bodywork to facilitate personal and spiritual growth, healing, and self-discovery. It was developed by Dr. Stanislav Grof and Christina Grof, pioneers in the Transpersonal Psychology & Consciousness field.

This method offers an opportunity to journey into expanded states of consciousness, where participants can explore the depths of their inner world and psyche for healing, self inquiry, personal and collective transformation.

Holotropic Breathwork provides a means of self-exploration that can lead to lasting positive change in one's life.

In the words of a previous participant: "Mireya masterfully creates a loving and supportive container for Holotropic Breathwork. I've attended her weekends multiple times, and each has been a profound experience. What makes her work so special is the emphasis on integration, which starts right after the session and continues the next day. This extra time was invaluable for me, helping me process my experience and bring the insights from my journey into my everyday life. I'm so grateful for the care Mireya puts into these transformative weekends."

Financial Contribution with Integration : $405

Cal Parrott . Cal began his interest and studies of human consciousness in 1974, after a near death experience that forced a change in his perspective of the world. In 1976 he was initiated into the Transcendental Meditation technique and for the next 2 years completed several advanced courses that culminated in a certification as Citizen Siddha. After an amicable divorce and the desire to work with the mother of his children to co-parent his son in a harmonious and beneficial way, he entered psychotherapy with the family counseling group Natural Learning Rhythms. NLR is a method of therapy that involves and includes the whole family.

Cal worked with NLR as a counselor for several years at their outdoor weeklong family camps. For the next 20 years he had the good fortune to practice the Taoist Mindful Meditation practice at his place of work as a self-employed master tofu maker. In the winter of 2008, after returning from a 3-month wandering retreat in India he found Holotropic Breathwork and the teachings of Stan Grof. In 2011, he was certified as a HB facilitator. Cal has been co-facilitating HB workshops and training modules in the U.S. and Mexico since that time. He is now semi-retired and lives in Mendocino County attempting gardening and foraging wild mushrooms.
