Yin + Conscious Connected Breathwork | Mount Maunganui

Experience the magic of your BREATH! Waves, just like our emotions, are energy in perpetual motion.

As humans, none of us are immune to the full spectrum of human emotion.

In a world where we are often taught to suppress & repress our emotions, we often stealthily prevent ourselves from truly experiencing our full emotions, causing them to become stored in the body. This causes stagnation in our energy which manifests in various undesirable forms. 


In order to heal from past pain, we must allow ourselves to fully feel all that we feel. It is through our accepting, releasing, and even loving such emotions that we are able to rise above the turbulent ocean of our emotions and ride the waves. 

In deeply connecting with our emotions, we inherently connect deeply with our intuition.

Although the releasing of emotion is a common experience in breathwork, this is just one experience. Many also experience deep relaxation, euphoria, insight, guidance, connection to our higher self, past lives, our path, purpose, & more. Let the waves of your breath be your guide. You will always experience exactly what is needed in that moment.

This is an event here to help you up-level, clear your subconscious of what's holding you back and help you tap into your intuition to receive the insights you're ready to hear.

During this 2 hour ceremony, you'll connect with like minded people, learn how to do the conscious connected breathwork technique, ways to support and resource yourself throughout, yin yoga to drop into your body and a full breathwork journey along with a little space for integration and sharing about your experience at the end (if this feels good to you at the time). All while being held by two breathwork facilitators and a reiki/energy worker.

Contraindications:

Like most types of therapy, Breathwork isn't appropriate for everyone. It is also important to note that a contraindication for some types of Breathwork may not be one for another. For example, types of breathwork that use rapid breathing may be very risky for someone with certain health conditions, such as high blood pressure, cardiovascular issues, a recent surgery, or osteoporosis. However, a type of Breathwork that utilizes a more gentle and relaxed form of breathing may be perfectly safe, and even beneficial. It's recommended that you consult with your healthcare provider (including any mental health provider) and consult with the Breathwork practitioner before participating in any form of Breathwork.

Following is a list of some of the most common contraindications for Breathwork:

• Cardiovascular problems
• High or abnormal blood pressure
• History of aneurysms
• Epilepsy or history of seizures
• Anyone on heavy medication
• Severe psychiatric symptoms, particularly psychosis or paranoia
• Bipolar depression
• Osteoporosis
• Recent surgery
• Glaucoma
• Pregnancy
• An active addiction
• An person with mental illness who isn't in treatment or lacks adequate support
  
  

Breathwork can result in intense physical and emotional release. Therefore, it is not advised for persons with a history of cardiovascular disease, including angina or heart attack, high blood pressure, glaucoma, retinal detachment, osteoporosis, any significant recent physical injuries or surgeries. Breathwork is not advised for persons with severe mental illness or seizure disorders or for persons using major medications. It is also unsuitable for anyone with a personal or family history of aneurysms. Pregnant women are advised against practicing Breathwork without first consulting and getting approval from their primary care physician. Persons with asthma should bring their inhaler and consult with their primary care physician and the Breathwork facilitator before their first session.
