About this Event

Somatic Breathwork: Returning to Center

Returning to Center is a nervous-system-first somatic breathwork workshop designed to support winter resilience, helping you come home to your body, soften protective tension, and build a steadier baseline through the colder months.

“Returning to center” is the practice of reorienting to breath and body when stress pulls you outward - so you can meet winter with more warmth, clarity, and capacity.

Plus - there’s an amazing plant-based dinner & dessert after the event. All included in your ticket!

This workshop is perfect for:

  • High-functioning people running on tightness, adrenaline, or overthinking
  • Those feeling wired and tired, emotionally flat, or easily overwhelmed
  • Those living with chronic tension, persistent pain, or recurring symptoms that feel hard to explain (alongside appropriate medical support)
  • Anyone craving a gentler way to release without forcing catharsis
  • People wanting steadiness, boundaries, and self-trust in the body
  • Beginners looking for a welcoming space to explore somatic breathwork

Pre-class prep
  • Mats, blankets and pillows will be provided but bring anything extra to support your comfort
  • Eat a light meal 2 hours before class.
  • Hydrate well throughout the day.
  • Avoid alcohol and recreational substances for 24 hours.
  • Limit caffeine 4 hours prior.
  • Arrive 10 minutes early for intake.
  • If you have health conditions, please check with your provider.
  • Feel free to email Lynn at [email protected] if there’s anything you’d like to share before the session.

Contraindications and safety

Somatic breathwork may not be suitable for pregnancy; serious cardiovascular conditions; uncontrolled blood pressure; glaucoma or retinal detachment; epilepsy or seizure history; recent surgery or concussion; or severe psychiatric conditions/active psychosis.

Aftercare

After the session, remember to:

  • Drink plenty of water
  • Eat nourishing food
  • Engage in simple movement or a short walk
  • Journal your insights
  • Get an early bedtime

Emotional waves may continue for 24 to 48 hours, so reach out if you need support.

Meet Lynn, your host

Lynn Tiang is an Integrative Somatic Coach, breathwork facilitator, and Reiki practitioner. Lynn supports people who are high-functioning on the outside but chronically tense, exhausted, or “stuck” on the inside—often after seasons of corporate burnout, chronic stress, or prolonged over-responsibility.

Lynn’s work blends three pillars:

  • Somatic breathwork to help regulate the nervous system, soften protective patterns, and restore a steadier baseline in the body
  • Reiki to support energetic clearing, heart coherence, and deep rest (in a gentle, consent-based way)
  • Life coaching to translate insight into grounded change—so what opens in ceremony becomes real in relationships, work, boundaries, and daily choices

Lynn’s approach is trauma-aware, practical, and spiritually spacious. The focus isn’t on forcing catharsis—it’s on creating enough safety for your system to unwind, receive support, and remember your natural capacity for calm, clarity, and connection.
