Shamanic Breathwork® at Greenstone Retreat

An afternoon of ceremony, conscious connected breathing, music & healing for a small intimate group with limited spaces.

Breathwork is one of the most powerful and accessible tools for healing available to us. Using a conscious connected breathing technique combined with ceremony for protection, evocative, chakra-attuned music and gentle bodywork, you are guided on a journey inward to the unconscious. Bypassing the thinking mind and tapping into the body's own innate wisdom and capacity to heal.

No experience is necessary. You are your own healer. This process simply creates the conditions for that healing to unfold.

What you might experience:
Regulation of your nervous system,
Release of stored stress, tension, and emotion
Increased energy and a boost to your immune system
Reduced anxiety and a deeper sense of calm
Improved sleep and mental clarity
A somatic release of held trauma and fear
Greater self-awareness, presence, and joy
A felt sense of connection — to yourself, to others, to something greater

Shamanic Breathwork is a powerful and deeply personal process, you may access altered states, strong emotions, or vivid inner experiences — this is a natural part of the journey, and you’ll be held safely throughout.

What to expect on the day:
We'll open with a welcome circle and a gentle introduction to the breathwork process. You'll then be guided through a one-hour+ breathing journey to specially selected music, with hands-on support available throughout. We close with an art process, sharing circle and quiet integration time.What to bring: eye mask, water bottle, journal and pen. Wear comfortable clothing with layers as your temperature can change during the process.
