Breathwork
What is Breathwork?
Breathwork is a practice that involves using different breathing techniques to channel your body and mind. Using these techniques can help bring you out of flight or fight responses or bring calmness to your mind. Some benefits that can occur when breathwork is practiced are: lowering stress levels, lowering blood pressure, and helping prevent headaches and body aches. It can have an anti-inflammatory effect on the body and can also help improve your mood, amongst other potential benefits.
Types of Breathwork:
Somatic Breathwork:
SomatIQ Breathwork™ is a full embodiment experience designed to help you release stress, trauma, emotions and pent up energy from the body. It is a modality that utilizes your own breath to help shed the layers of yourself that no longer serve.
SomatIQ Breathwork™ uses a circular connected breath pattern to tap into your body's innate inner intelligence and find the areas that need clearing. Coupling the breath with immersive music may result in different forms of cathartic emotional releases such as laughing, moving, crying, yelling, and shaking. All forms of expression are encouraged because it allows the body to move any stuck energy and create space for the second half of the breathwork session.
A gentler breathing technique is used in the second half of the session to help you connect with who you truly are. Together we can use the breath to call in how you want to show up in the world, the changes you want to embody, and allow you to see clearly what it would be like to live your best life.
