Shamanic Breathwork is an ancient, natural and safe practice to connect you with your subconscious mind, body and higher self. Native tribes used various practices of Shamanic Breathwork for different purposes. For self healing and improvement, Shamanic Breathwork can be used to release yourself from past traumas and break self destructive behavioural patterns.

Emotionally challenging situations experienced from birth, childhood, through to adulthood can reside in the body as emotional dis-ease, manifesting as mental health issues, personality problems and as physical disease.

The emotional reactions to the situations we find ourselves in our lives are a direct result of our experiences, social conditioning, traumas, and how we have dealt with them on both a conscious and subconscious level. If we find ourselves at a point in our lives where we are not truly happy, feeling stuck or insecure, Shamanic Breathwork gives us the tools we need to effect real change, reconnect with our higher selves and our true purpose. These practices enable us to delve into our subconscious mind & body to reconcile these trapped emotions, physically releasing them from the body, allowing us to live our lives in the light of the present moment, without being overshadowed by our past.

What happens during Shamanic Breathwork Ceremony and what can I expect during my first practice?

Prior to your first Shamanic Breathwork Ceremony you will be asked to set an intention – what do you want to achieve by taking part? Setting and holding an intention is a very important part of ceremony and self healing. For private one-to-one ceremonies you will be given a consultation, for your intention and needs to be best met and the appropriate Shamanic Breathwork Ceremony to be given. Certain medicine songs may be sung and incense burnt.

You will then be given a specific way to breath, that will allow you to access deeper parts of your mind and body. You will be guided throughout the whole ceremony, during which specially selected music will be played to help guide you on your journey. From start to finish, a Shamanic Breathwork Ceremony will last between 90 and 120 minutes, depending on the individual.

For many people, taking part in a Shamanic Breathwork Ceremony will be one of the most profound experiences of their life and as such, participants must be fully aware that this can affect significant positive change in their life.
