Breath Medicine is a therapeutic, science-based approach to healing and integration of trauma and stress.  It is an embodiment path to access and awaken our inner gifts to meet life balanced, happy, inspired and at peace. Supported by ancient wisdom and practices of the Tao to align body, mind and soul; this modality is the result of 28 years of practicing Connected Breathwork, such as Rebirthing Transformational Breathwork and BioDynamic Breathwork & Trauma Release, married with 26 years experience in various forms of therapeutic bodywork, specialising in Chi Nei Tsang (Chinese belly massage) and 5 Element / somatic dance practices and work as a nutritional and herbal practitioner. 

Although BM uses many breath patterns including pranayama, the foundational practice of the school is Connected Breathwork; a continuous breath without pause unifying the inhale with the exhale. When this is applied through an open mouth, the sympathetic nervous system is activated giving us access to past traumas and unfulfilled flight, fight, freeze and please responses that get locked in the body. If anxiety or other overwhelming responses are already active, then we use the Connected Breath or holding breath paterns through the nose to access and stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system.

When we can meet all of ourself, our sensations, emotions and feelings with love, welcome and curiosity; we have an opportunity for a healthy release of blocked and stagnated energy and an awakening of powerful inner resources and creative life-force energy. The increased movement and oxygenation of the blood is incredibly detoxifying and healing on all levels. Many feel like a huge weight has been lifted from their bodies and mind, experiencing optimism and positivity, claiming to have clear insights as to where life wants to take them, feel pain free and find peace with what has been previously challenging.

Breath Medicine is a wholistic system including various breath practices, trauma/stress release techniques, somatic movement and dance, ritual and ceremony and herbal/nutritional support.  

Each day is connected to harmonising one element starting with the ground up. First we explore our foundations, the Earth: to ground and connect. We then move through the elements of Water: our ability to surrender, soften and let go. Fire: our ability to take action, transform and illuminate. Air: our ability to expand, connect and allow change.  Ether: a deep listening of the subtle forces, an allowing of our inner wisdoms to guide us, the integration and celebration.

We share group and one on one assisted and connected Breath Medicine sessions, dance, explore somatic movement and various partner exercises, Qi Gong  and meditations suitable to each element.  You will learn many take home tools including grounding, clearing and protecting techniques, nervous system care and 5-Element massage; a non verbal language of touch.

Experience and learn assisted breath and somatic sensing sessions. Although this practice is simple it has been one of my most used practices as a holistic embodiment coach for over 20 years. It is an extraordinary gift to feel, sense and connect with the voice within and beyond your flesh and bones. Listen in for the whispering, your inner being is always communicating.

As you experience what it means to hold safe space for your self and each other.  This retreat gives you a chance to witness the power and beauty of Breath, experience first hand how energy and emotions move, and support the return of a healthy balanced nervous system. Also as a receiver you have a loving presence to hold and support you through your journey. How many times have you felt alone and wanted to be held, seen and heard. Here is your chance to receive this.

Changes happen in such short spaces of time you may hardly recognise your self or others between sessions. The structural and emotional alignment and growth that happens with this work is such a gift to feel and witness.  

​

As a certified Breath Medicine practitioner you will cultivate your confidence as a Breathwork facilitator with embodied knowledge and intellectual understanding of the human mental, emotional and physical bodies. Hone your skills as a hands-on practitioner. You have the opportunity to assist and hold space for others and practice your ability to read and respond to all that arises within group sessions.

Fully qualified Breath Medicine practitioners can leave empowered and embodied to use deep and effective body and various breathwork practices, diagnose physical and emotional signatures of trauma with body mapping and apply suitable sessions to meet the person as an individual for long-term restoration and inhabitation of emotional, physical and spiritual bodies.
