• Memories surfacing from different stages of life

• A sense of relaxation, peace, or bliss afterwards

Often, insights and realisations follow, helping you better understand patterns in your life and creating the space for change.

Breathwork can release physical and emotional tension, bring unconscious patterns into awareness, and create space for personal growth. For many, it becomes a powerful tool for long-term change and wellbeing.

It seems that if you have been drawn to investigate this technique then it will be of benefit to you. Anyone who is prepared to take personal responsibility for their lives can use the technique and gain benefit from it. Breathwork is based on the concept ‘Thought is creative’. In simple terms this means that your life is a reflection of what you think and believe. If you want different results, then you must change your thinking. Identifying the beliefs and patterns which run in your life can help you make the change.

It is recommended that you take the time to find the Breathworker who suits you and with whom you feel comfortable.
