HOW IT WORKS

"Breathplay" also known as breathwork is an umbrella term used to describe a variety of conscious breathing practices. It provides a meeting place for science and spirituality to come together.

What is the first thing that changes when you are feeling stressed, challenged or upset?

It's the breath.

There is a strong relationship between your Breath, Heart and Nervous System. Your body knows how to process stress and regulates through the Nervous System.

Breathplay may also have a positive impact on your central nervous system. When you feel stressed, your breath tends to become fast and shallow. This limits the oxygen entering your bloodstream. Your brain tells your body that there is a threat and your body responds in fight or flight.

Physical health benefits of breathplay may include:

Balanced blood pressure
More time in deep sleep
Reduction of PTSD and feelings of trauma
Stronger respiratory function
Better immune system
Release of stress hormones from your body
Energize the body

Emotional benefits may include:

Fewer feelings of depression and anxiety
Better mental focus
Decrease in addictive behaviors
Allowing emotional scars to heal
Better outlook on life
Contentment and joy

What happens to us when we are unable to release stress or hang onto unresolved life experience?

As your body keeps the score, tension becomes stored in the body. It can build up and influences our beliefs, thoughts, actions and behaviors.

What if this accumulating tension was like an iceberg impacting on your life? What if this also influenced your interactions with your environment and future generations?

The conventional approach usually involves talking about, unpacking and revisiting emotions and memories. This is like thawing out the iceberg in the sun. The top of the iceberg melts, then more ice floats to the surface and the cycle continues.

What if you had a sledge hammer to smash this iceberg into a million pieces? What if you could breathe in a way to engage the Body, Brain and Nervous System to stimulate a release? Invite in a sense of harmony, peace and lasting relief? Leaving you feeling uplifted, inspired and aware of the healing power within you

Hostinformation

Sjoerd Coenders

Sjoerd is a breath coach who empowers people to achieve the best version of themselves by optimizing their health with the superpower of breath. He believes that the power of the breath can improve your health, enhance performance and ability to deal with stress, increase energy, better concentration & enrich the quality of life.
He is passionate about delivering the importance of breathing to people’s day-to-day lives. He is also purposeful in sharing the healing powers of breakthrough breathing that assists in overcoming traumas.
Healthy breathing changed his life when he was in a time of his life to find his purpose. He loves to give people a great time and make them feel happy. Working in hospitality fulfilled this need and he wanted to give and serve at a level with a higher purpose. During a breathing experience, he felt a connection with his little brother "Lucky" Luuk, who only lived for 8 days when Sjoerd was 4 years old. This experience pushed him towards his destiny to serve people with the power of the breath.
As a child and teenager, he had challenges in keeping up with the rest of his football team because he was out of breath. In his adult life, this issue returned when he started playing other sports, especially in triathlon. Using optimal breathing he no longer suffers from being out of breath and can perform at his best.
Sjoerd holds a master instructor breathwork certification and has taken several breathwork courses through Breathless Expeditions, founded by Johannes Egberts. Sjoerd also holds a bachelor's degree in Business Administration (Hotel Management) from Maastricht Hotel Management School (The Netherlands)
When Sjoerd is not empowering people to become the best version of themselves by coaching the power of breath, Sjoerd can be found in the water freediving. Swimming, Cycling & Running with his triathlon buddies, or enjoying a great hike in nature. Sharing food and drinks with friends is something that he is always up for.
