This is your invitation to feel

To go within

To release your pain

To be with your vulnerability

To dive into your suppressed emotions

To integrate your shadows

To know yourself a little more

To find forgiveness for your past

To be held

To be loved

To be still

To EMBODY the truth of who you are

This EmbodiMAN Mens Breathwork session will focus on the PELVIS!

The pelvis

Our base

Our roots to the earth

The seat of our soul

Our basic primal needs of love, connection, safety, authenticity and acceptance.

Our pelvis stores the fight or flight reflex through our psoas and surrounding musculature. Trapping vast amounts of this survival energy, keeping us stuck in the fight or flight response and preventing the free flow of life force and creative energies through our body.

We will utilise the 6 elements of Biodynamic Breathwork to begin releasing tension from the pelvis. Specifically focusing on movement and touch to access the deeper muscles and tendons.

Typical emotional expressions that may be stored in the pelvis include anger, sadness, rage, anxiety, terror, sexual feelings / arousal and pleasure.

About Breathwork:

Breathwork involves conscious connected breathing (without pause) for approximately 60minutes. By breathing in this way, we begin to access the Limbic (emotional) part of the brain. With the influx of oxygen, we wake up the dormant parts of the body, where our trauma is stored. This process may bring up any unresolved or suppressed emotions such as anger, shame, sadness, fear, grief, love or joy. This powerful work exposes core wounds and traumas, gently guiding them to be safely resolved and integrated within the nervous system. The breath will open up long held blockages, allowing vital energy to flow freely through the body, supporting the breakthrough of old patterns and beliefs and stepping into a new version of oneself.

During this 3hr men's breathwork session you can expect:

A safe, sacred space to explore the deepest and most vulnerable parts of yourself
Movement and awareness exercises to illuminate long-held muscle tension and the suppressed emotion stored in our bodies
Strengthening the connection with your body and coming into presence
Gentle therapeutic bodywork and touch, a key element in releasing muscle tension and body armouring
Deep relaxation and stillness

What to bring:

Yourself! Come with an open mind and curiosity to explore
Loose fitting comfortable clothes, something you can move and sweat in
A plastic water bottle
A journal and a pen
Anything else you feel may support you
