A bit more about Shamanic Breathwork; We are incredibly lucky to have Kathy Guidi coming to our house to facilitate this session for us. She will be holding further events with us fortnightly on Saturdays, alternating with intro sessions and master classes.

Kathy is Aotearoa's only certified Shamanic Breathwork facilitator.

Shamanic Breathwork utilizes a dynamic breathing process called conscious connected breathing, along with chakra attuned music, bodywork, and an art integration & sharing process. You are guided on a journey where you can drop deep and tune in to your inner wisdom and achieve an altered state of consciousness, by-passing the ego-mind, and tapping into what’s underneath the surface thereby leading you to experience whatever is needed for your highest growth and healing.

During a breathwork session, you can experience any number of states of being from anger & grief, to utter bliss and connection to the cosmos; you can have a womb memory experience (rebirth), you might uncover childhood memories, or you may experience downloads or a deep Knowing. The full spectrum of humanness is available and no two breathwork journeys are the same.

Shamanic Breathwork is a healing modality where YOU are your own healer, YOU are your own shaman, and YOU contain all the information you need for inner transformation and healing.

"I endeavor to create a very safe container for YOU to undergo your process of transformation. Whatever needs to come up for you that day can come up to be seen, understood, and healed. It is imperative during these phenomenal times we are living through that all emotions are expressed and moved out of the body."
~ Kathy Guidi.
