Seattle Events

 

Breathing is our connection to the source of life, and breath is a bridge that connects body and mind, conscious and subconscious, and the individual self and universal soul.

Breathwork is an accessible way to transcend ordinary states of mind and explore more deeply within, and to reconnect with the profound wisdom, beauty, and regenerative capacity within.  

In these 2.5-hour sessions, you will be guided in a journey of conscious connected breathwork, a practice that involves a circular flow of breathing combined with music to gently catalyze expanded states of awareness and embodied, somatic experience. Like a therapy session without words or a light psychedelic experience, breathwork can help you see from new perspective, release physical and psychological tension, and reconnect to your authentic Self.

Breathwork in community is one of the most powerful ways to experience this work, as the amplified collective energy serves as a powerful resource of healing, encouragement, and support. For those seeking to know themselves more deeply, please join us for a transformational journey of breath.

WHAT TO BRING:

To support your comfort during the breathwork journey, please bring:

  • Yoga mat or camping pad. You will be reclined for approximately 75-80 minutes, so please bring a thick yoga mat or camping pad/cushion.

  • Thin pillow and 1-2 blankets. Please bring a thin pillow and 1-2 blankets. Body temperature can fluctuate, so it’s best to ensure you stay warm and comfortable.

  • Water bottle. Hydrate well before and after the session, and bring a water bottle should you need to coat your throat during the breathwork.

  • Layered, comfortable clothing. Wear relatively loose and comfortable clothes (avoid tight waist/bra bands, which can inhibit the deep breathing).

  • (Optional) Eye pillow/mask. Many people prefer to wear an eye mask to block ambient light and support the inward journey.

  • (Optional) Journal and pen. You might like to capture insights that arise, or draw/journal following the session.

  • (Optional) A snack! It’s common to work up an appetite, so consider bringing a protein-rich snack to eat after the journey and to help ground your energy.

AND WHAT NOT TO BRING:

  • Scented body products/perfumes. Please refrain from wearing perfume or any heavily scented body products.

  • Drugs/alcohol. The only substance we’ll be using is the breath; please do not come under the influence of any drugs or alcohol.

  • Colds or Covid. We will be a large group open-mouth breathing for an hour. As an inherently high-risk activity, please DO NOT attend if you feel ANY symptom of illness, or have someone sick at home.


CONTRAINDICATIONS & CONSIDERATIONS:

While active breathwork is of value to anyone interested in healing, personal growth and self-realization, it's best suited for those who have some background in therapeutic and/or spiritual work, as this supports one's capacity to remain in a state of witnessing awareness through potentially strong states of physical, emotional, and psychological experience.

Due to the physiological shifts during breathwork and expanded states of consciousness, the following physical and psychological conditions are contraindicated for this type of breathwork:

  • pregnancy

  • high blood pressure or history of cardiovascular disease or stroke

  • epilepsy or history of seizure

  • personal or family history of aneurysms

  • glaucoma or detached retina

  • bipolar disorder or history of manic episode

  • schizophrenia and/or history of psychosis

  • recent major surgeries or infectious disease

  • PTSD*

  • history of significant trauma (acute or complex)*

  • asthma (please bring your inhaler and consult with a primary care physician prior)

*For those with histories of PTSD or trauma, we strongly advise a private, 1:1 session where a facilitator can support the highest outcome possible for your experience.

If you have any question as to whether this type of breathwork is appropriate for you, please contact Tai to request information that you can review with your licensed medical care provider.

In registering for a breathwork event, you confirm that you have read and agree to the terms of the release and waiver of liability:
