Before you sign up, let us explain a little more about what breathwork is!

The Essence of Breathwork 🧘🏽‍♀️

This is so much more than inhaling and exhaling; it’s a journey of self-awareness and healing. There are many types of breathwork but the specific type of that we’ll be diving into today is circular breathwork. Circular breathwork (or connected breathing) is the act of inhaling through the mouth in a circular pattern.

This type is all about connecting the mind to the body.. During a breathwork session, your parasympathetic nervous system is activated, allowing your body and mind to enter into a state of relaxation and calmness. This allows you to de-stress and decompress.

Here are some feelings that you can expect to experience during circular breathwork:

  • Tingling sensation in the hands & feet
  • Dizziness or lightheadedness 
  • Muscle tightness
  • Intense emotional release

However, don’t panic! All of these feelings are normal and harmless! 

So, why should you consider starting, and what can it bring to your life? Let’s explore just three of the endless possibilities

Anxiety, Stress & Depression Relief: It calms the nervous system, reduces the “fight or flight” response in anxiety, and quietens racing thoughts. For stress, it regulates stress hormone production, relaxes tense muscles, and enhances mental clarity. In the case of depression, utilizing this breathing technique elevates mood, stimulates “feel-good” neurotransmitters, and fosters emotional release, increasing energy levels and promoting self-awareness. 

Increases Circulation, Energy, and Immune Function: Breathwork increases circulation by delivering more oxygen to the bloodstream, leading to improved circulation through vasodilation and enhancing overall vitality. It elevates energy levels by optimizing oxygen transport for efficient cellular respiration, releasing endorphins, and reducing stress, combating fatigue. Moreover, it bolsters immune function by stimulating the lymphatic system, reducing stress, and fostering a mind-body connection, contributing to a healthier, more resilient immune system.

Eliminates Chronic Pain: It triggers the relaxation response, reducing muscle tension and the perceived intensity of pain; it prompts the release of endorphins, natural pain relievers; it manages stress, reducing emotional aspects of pain and enhancing pain tolerance; it optimizes oxygen flow to muscles and tissues, preventing painful tension and aiding in healing; it fosters a mind-body connection that improves pain understanding and coping; and it indirectly addresses secondary symptoms of pain.
