Please note this event is limited to a capacity of 15 participants

Discover the power of your breath in a guided safe space.

Through conscious, connected breathwork, we can transform restricted breathing patterns into deep life-affirming breaths, resulting in profound effects on the mind, body and spirit. Join us to learn this beautiful technique and how to integrate it into your daily practice.

This workshop draws on wisdom from Yogic Pranayama, Sufi breathing, Wim Hof, and BreathWave techniques. 

SAFAR, translates as 'Journey' in Farsi and offers experiences that take us on the voyage back to our authentic essence.

The facilitator, Sima, is praised for her intuitive, grounded, and gentle approach, creating a safe and supportive environment for the participants. Many express gratitude for the opportunity to learn and practice breathwork techniques, and they look forward to attending future sessions. The only practical suggestions are to ensure the space is warm enough and to consider the use of music and other props during the sessions.

24 hours after the session I am still in awe and trying to process what I experienced. Sima was beautifully supportive, grounded and gentle. I was a little nervous but quickly realised I was in incredibly safe hands. I didn't know how much I was holding onto and but much of that was released in the session. A transformative experience and I cannot wait for the next one. Thank you for facilitating and holding the space so empathetically!

This was a beautiful session. This is a great space to experience if you want to learn about different breath work techniques. I attended the session with no expectations and was gifted a beautiful gift- the recognition of how powerful our breath can be (in so many ways)! Sima has a wonderful presence and is a great teacher. High recommend attending!

A really lovely session. Sima created a really lovely container and was very supportive throughout the session. I especially enjoyed all the preparatory activity - it really set me up for a lovely journey. Thanks Sima!
