Breathwork for self compassion

BREATHWORK

Join our  Conscious Connected Breathwork group and explore the breath as a vehicle for the journey from the busy-ness of the head to the wisdom and connection of heart and body.

This guided  journey involves (optional) acupressure, and is set to a curated playlist. The invitation is to get out of your head, connect to your emotional inner world, release energetic blockages in the body and find peace in the present moment.

Preparing For Your Session

To ensure comfort during the session, participants are advised to avoid eating for at least 2 hours beforehand. Stay well-hydrated, and drink plenty of water throughout the day beforehand.

I suggest participants wear loose comfortable clothing with no tightness or restriction around the abdomen. 

Please bring a yoga mat, blanket and a pillow or cushion. An eye mask is also good, but not essential.

Health Considerations

While breathwork can benefit many individuals, there are certain conditions where caution or avoidance may be necessary. Please be aware that the following conditions are contraindicated for Conscious Connected Breathing:

1. History of seizures or epilepsy
2. First Trimester of Pregnancy, and when trying to conceive 
3. Detached retina or any eye condition which can be adversely affected by changes in internal pressure.
4. Psychotic episodes.

By signing up for breathwork sessions, participants confirm they do not have any of the conditions mentioned above and release me from any liability related to your participation. 

My clients safety and well-being are my top priorities and if there are any concerns or questions, please feel free to contact me in advance, or talk to me on the day.
