What is transpersonal breathwork?
Transpersonal breathwork is an advanced breathing technique called conscious connected breathing. This technique bypasses the thinking mind and activates subconscious memories, thoughts, feelings and emotions held in the body. These experiences are explored, amplified and/or released. Breathwork is a down-up and experiential therapeutic practice that is guided by sensations and experiences within the body, rather than the mind.
What is breathwork useful for?
Breathwork therapy assists with a broad range of presenting issues. Such as:
feelings and experiences associated with anxiety and depression;
trauma (including early childhood and inter-generational);
behavioural issues (for example shyness, low-self esteem, procrastination, disassociation and addictive behaviours);
stress and pain relief;
body concerns (including eating disorders);
sex and sexuality (including matters relating to the LGBTQI community);
relational material (such as relationships at work, in the family, between friends and your partner(s));
spiritual questions and spiritual experiences;
further exploring material from plant medicine experiences;
interest in altered-state therapies;
life purpose and mindfulness questions; and
those with a curiosity about breathwork and wanting to improve general wellbeing.
Health and wellbeing considerations (contraindicators):
Breathwork uses a rhythmic/dynamic breathing pattern for an extended period of time, giving you access to an altered-state of consciousness. Whilst this breathing practice is safe, there are certain mental and physical conditions that may prevent you from participating in this workshop. These may include people with cardiovascular problems, pregnancy, some psychiatric conditions, psychosis, recent surgery or fractures, acute infectious illness or epilepsy, severe hypertension, glaucoma, or active spiritual emergency.
