Alchemize Your Life Breathwork
Breathwork is a means of inducing an altered state of consciousness through full, connected breathing often accompanied with breath holds. We teach a breathing technique similar to the Wim Hof method as well as SOMA breathwork to draw you inward.
The benefits of breathwork include:
- Reduced stress and anxiety
- Improves mood and self-esteem
- Helps heal from trauma and manage PTSD
- Improves sleep
- Helps to overcome addictions
- Focusing on the present
- Increases self-awareness
- Increases patience and tolerance
- Increases energy and boosts immunity
- Improves focus
- Increases creativity and imagination
- Helps with pain management
Before you Breath
Make sure you haven't had food or caffeine for atleast 2-3 hours before you breath. When you have an empty stomach you are able to breath deeper.
Make sure you have reviewed the how to breathwork video on youtube before you attend your first session. We will go over breathwork mechanics in the orientation, but its always better to have practiced a bit beforehand.
For virtual sessions, make sure that you have built a space that is comfortable. Often this includes a yoga blanket to lay on, an eye cover to shield the eyes, a bolster or pillow for under the knees, and last a blanket to cover your body while you breathe. Make this space your own. Do your best to pick a space that will have minimal distractions. (see store at the top of the page to purchase these items)
