The heart is the most powerful source of electromagnetic energy in the human body, producing the largest rhythmic electromagnetic field of any of the body’s organs. The heart’s electrical field is about 60 times greater in amplitude than the electrical activity generated by the brain. This field, measured in the form of an electrocardiogram (ECG), can be detected anywhere on the surface of the body. Furthermore, the magnetic field produced by the heart is more than 100 times greater in strength than the field generated by the brain and can be detected up to 3 feet away from the body, in all directions.
Join us in the sacred ceremony between body and breath. Where we will gather to tap into the intelligence of the heart and bring our intention into this space for deep listening and receiving.
Breathwork is an active meditation technique that facilitates emotional release in a safe and supportive environment. Through full rhythmic breathing, the conscious mind softens, allowing us to tune into our body wisdom to heal current stress, past wounds, and traumas.
The workshop begins with a guided meditation and sharing exercise to help participants identify what needs to shift/heal in their lives and their intentions for the session. You will then find a comfortable position lying down and I will guide you through the Breathwork for 35-40 minutes, all set to a cosmic soundtrack, and ending with deep relaxation. During the final phase of the workshop, we gather together in a circle and share our experience, if we feel called to, and I will answer any questions you may have about Breathwork.
Breathwork has the power to change emotional default settings and lifetime patterns of depression, anxiety and addiction by feeling and clearing with the breath. This innovative therapy aims to connect you to your intuition, creativity and self-worth. Above all, this practice nourishes the heart; helping you to align with feelings of deep appreciation and self-love.
