Breathwork Ceremony by Loren Honey

Breathwork is exploding the last few years - with good reason!! It's a profound modality to help clear stored emotions, heal the past, let shit go and tap into infinite creative ideas, solutions and deep intuition!!

This breathwork ceremony is designed to meet you where you are at and to empower with your own BREATH! 

Our breath is our life force, we breathe in oxygen created by plants and trees in the ngāhere which helps to fuel us every day without us having to think about it. Our breath is an indication of our overall health and wellbeing. How deeply do we breathe or is our breath more shallow? Breathwork is a modality that can be used to support our health, mauri, and emotional self.

In this breathwork ceremony, the space will be held in a way that is full of ritual and incredibly safe space by an internationally renowned and qualified breathwork facilitator - Loren Honey. She brings a wealth of knowledge and weaves together many modalities to create a breathwork experience like no other. During this 3 hour ceremony, you'll be guided through some pranayama exercises, a full 60min conscious connected breathwork journey with space for sharing about your experience at the end if you want to share. You'll leave with more tools to support you in your day to day life and a profound expereince.
