Quite often people say to me - Ahh I need some of that...! Realising that their breathing is oh so shallow... tightly held in the top of their chest, restricting their bodies, all tensed up, painful and rigid.
Some even come along saying - Oh it's not so much the healing part that I need -- It's just the breathing I need help with.
Well what if I was to tell you breathwork is more about teaching you how to feel, not to breathe and that the 2 are inextricably linked.
By holding our breath and breathing in the shallows we are holding ourselves away from our feelings. By surpressing our feelings and disconnecting from whats deep inside we are not only creating tension, dis-ease and disconnection inside of the body...., We are also missing so much of the richness of life.
Feelings should not be feared -- They are what gives life its meaning.
The deep love and loss.... that shows how much they meant to us.
The fear and shame helps teach us and shape us and grow us into beautiful humans....
The rage is the fuel we need for change and motivation.
When we are disconnected and numb, life can lack meaning. We can end up chasing a bottle or even questioning whats the point when we feel flat and are lacking connection in even the busiest of rooms.
Without feeling we lose our passion, our creativity, our energy, our magic.
Breathwork moves us into our bodies.. To allow us to feel through the complexity of human emotion.
Breathwork teaches us to allow feelings to move, to be expressed and let go of... Passing through us like clouds in the sky, rather than stuck inside of us like heavy rocks on a sinking ship.
Working through our feelings builds emotional maturity, resiliance and often reignites a spark long lost inside reminding us of how beautiful it is to FEEL ALIVE.
So its not just a breathing technique that I teach.... more lessons & a road map, turning inwards....
That allows you to find your way back home.
Breath Ceremony taking a pause from the 5th of January as I shall be embarking on a trip to India & South East Asia...... watch this space for updates !!
Online breathing space & breathwork sessions will resume on the 18th January...DM me for more info or to book via my website.
FOR YOUR FREEDOM.
We have to feel it to heal it..... And once we do, you can be reborn again and again feeling the magic of life once more, as we peel back the layers that block us from being the love that we truly are at a soul level.
In person sessions in Bali/Chiang Mai - February into March.... Mid March onwards back in UK ~ Get in touch if you want to work with me.
