Why breathe?

7/30/2018

Well, aside from the obvious, I’d like to share my experience with Breathwork and why I’ve dedicated myself to learning this practice to the point of being able to lead it. 

I wanted to learn breathwork because of it’s ability to help those with PTSD, trauma and addiction. It is powerful!

Breathwork has been used for centuries to maximize performance in martial arts and yogic practices; it truly is the difference in one’s ability to control execution. It became more of a spiritual practice in the 70s with holotropic breath, and has made a comeback in today’s culture with leaders in the work such as Dr. Ela Manga, Wim Hof and Dan Brule. 

I was fortunate enough to find breathwork in early 2017, and as soon as I tried the practice, I was hooked! My work began intensively, breathing twice a month for a period of 3 months. The transformation that occurred during this time was like time-warp speed, and I realize I was catching up from years of not acting from a place of personal well-being. 

The goal of this blog was to share with you the unbelievable experience of the work, but it is so difficult to put into words. In summary, Breathwork leads us to experience our souls. Through the work, we uncover more and more about our true selves, and how we’re meant to be living this life. 

It is sometimes painful. It creates an incredible high. It clears away the walls we’ve built over a lifetime of pain and suffering, to allow us to reach the depths of our being. It is the most transformational and profound healing work I’ve ever experienced. 

This work is not for those looking for a zen and relaxing experience, that’s what the Cave is for, and I highly recommend building in time for reflection around your breath experience. Breathwork is for those that are fed up. 

I was so tired of my own bullshit by the time I found it. This work called me on it. I also chose to work with a coach to help me navigate the intense emotions it stirs up. Journaling, meditating and energy movement practices assist me in the intensity of the weekend trainings.

I’m so grateful to be a part of building awareness around this work and look forward to breathing with you at the Cave.
