Breath work is very trendy on social media. A quick search on TicToc revealed 170k breathwork video views, and while some creators can successfully present a breathwork video, oftentimes the viewer is left confused and oftentimes misled.

As a systematic healing practitioner and Yoga Teacher Trainer, Ellie doesn't share much breath work content on social media. In her experience, when people attempt the practice on their own using online instruction found on social media, that doesn't provide appropriate context and framing. This can result in an unexpectedly high-pressure or negative experience.

This can turn people away from the true power of transformation found in the practice of breath work. My breathwork immersions dive deep into the practice of breath work systematically. This is a trauma informed approach to promote healing from within. Learn valuable tools such as how to use the breath as a gateway for peace and healing. Learn and grow in a safe environment with one on one feedback and support from an experienced trainer. This immersion gives you the tools, space, and time to learn and incorporate these tools with support from a trained breath practitioner.

So what is breathwork? It’s simple, breathwork is the conscious shifting of your breath pattern.

Breathwork is thought to influence the vagus nerve, which stretches from the brain to the gut and makes up the majority of what's known as the parasympathetic nervous system. This web of nerves promotes a relaxed state, shifting the body away from a “fight or flight” stress response and into a state of “rest and digest.”

So why am I hosting this Breath Immersion?

As it turns out, experts say learning breathwork as a beginner is harder than most understand. That's partly because many people are accustomed to drawing short breaths from their chest, rather than inhaling deeply from their abdomen. Altering this pattern can be challenging, as it requires an awareness that many people don't possess, through no fault of their own. The body's reflexes are powerful; it's easy to take breathing for granted.

This breath Immersion will, over the span of 2 hours, help bring that awareness back to the breath, consciously being aware of the breath while controlling the flow of breath in your body by you.

Along with conscious continual diaphragmatic breath awareness, you will also learn 3 other breath techniques to help you relieve stress, sleep better, heighten you mood, increase energy, and much more. We will close our session with a 20 minute breath practice that promotes deep release in safe space.

I’ve jam packed information into this immersion so that you can not only learn these breath practices, but incorporate them into your daily life!
