Everything I teach – and I mean EVERYTHING – has always been because I need it. In everything I do, I go first!

Because of childood trauma I dissociated from my body and so, when I found yoga at 13 years old, I knew that it was the practice to bring my body and mind back together again. 

But, even though I’d been practicing yoga since I was a teenager, I didn’t realise I was holding my breath, losing my centre, until over 20 years later. I figured it out when I read A Life Worth Breathing, by Max Strom. It inspired me so much, I tracked him down and took his advanced teacher training. Then I ran with it…

I have now spent over a decade exploring the breath and that is why I created the Breathwork Facilitator Training for people just like me who have always put others first, whether in their work, or homelife, or both!

This is the last time to join the 4-month CIMSPA-endorsed and IPHM-accredited Breathwork Facilitator Training before we extend it to a 6-month course. Click below to check it out and if you have any questions just email me back.

We cover:

  • The anatomy of the lungs; gaseous exchange; the breath-brain connection and the physical and mental benefits of breathwork.
  • How the breath impacts the vagus nerve and its connection to the parasympathetic nervous system.
  • The content of a breathwork session with an in-depth study of 6 unique breathwork exercises.
  • How to hold space for breathwork; creating a trauma-informed space and basic facilitation skills.
  • The structure of a breathwork session and how to build momentum with music and motivational cueing (i.e. what to say and what to play) and how to plan for emotional and physical reactions.
  • The Business of Breathwork and how to modify for different audiences/special populations.
