SHAMANIC BREATHWORK

FULL DAY CO-JOURNEYER IMMERSION

I am excited to facilitate and hold space for a full day of Shamanic Breathwork. We will have two rounds of breathwork sessions, and within each, we will break into pairs, with one person breathing while the other holds space (called the co-journeyer). There is deep beauty in being a co-journeyer, to sit in complete presence to another, and often the co-journeyer receives benefits in unexpected ways.

Bring your partner, bring a friend, or just come solo trusting you will be partnered with the right person for you that day!

About Shamanic Breathwork:

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 tap 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. Coming into a session with no expectations and full acceptance of all that arises is recommended to get the most out of your experience.

Upon the closure of the Breathwork journey and your return to the physical world, you will be invited to partake in the art integration aspect of the ceremony. This is where you are given time to draw or express your experience, and then share with the group if you feel called to do so.

Please bring:

Please bring the following items with you to support your journey experience: yoga mat, pillow, blanket, water bottle, journal, pen, and eye mask (optional).

Note1:
