"Voyage of the Heart" A Breathwork Journey of self-love, compassion and strength.

Join us to breathe in the POWER of LOVE. Our heart is our centre of intuition, spiritual/mystical connection and our emotions. In many traditions, the heart is seen as a bridge between the physical and spiritual realms. Balancing the heart chakra (energy centre) brings more self-love, love of others, love of life, more forgiveness, and more compassion. 

Research by the HeartMath Institute suggests that the heart's electromagnetic field emits vibrations that can influence others and the collective consciousness. And in the field of neuro-cardiology the heart's ability to process, learn and remember also highlights it's role in intuition and emotional intelligence.

I will guide you on a journey of exploration as you breathe and connect to your mind and body. At this event we will explore the heart, what self love means to you, what heart felt intuition you follow, or ignore, and why. Opening up to what is possible for you when you release anything blocking your heart. Can you follow your heart, love yourself more deeply and change the world as a result?

Please bring a notepad and pen if you would like to journal about your experience during/after the session.

Wellness practices you'll try in this session

1. Pranayama: Breathing techniques to strengthen the connection between your body and mind.

2. Conscious Connected Breathwork: A circular breathing technique where the inhales are immediately followed by exhales without pause. When maintained for 40 minutes this practice brings on non-ordinary states of consciousness and can lead to profound experiences of healing.

3. Breath Holds: Great for lung health, boosts the cardiovascular system.

4. Affirmations: Positive thinking can rewire your brain, changing the way you feel about things. Affirmations work because of neuroplasticity, the brains ability to adapt to new situations and ways of thinking/feeling.

5. Visualisations: Helps cultivate relaxation and self awareness, leading to improved mental health and a greater sense of wellbeing.

This session will help you to calm the mind and body by connecting deeply to your breath. The aim is to come fully into harmony with yourself and increase the flow of energy through your body. Often we spend too much time in our heads, overstimulated and overwhelmed by life's challenges and experiences. It can be hard to work out what is real and what is a result of 'thinking about it' too much.

At the start of the session I will help you check in with how you are feeling in the moment. Using the breath as a guide, it'll be a time for inner reflection, non judgment, acceptance of yourself and your life. Then I will guide you on a Conscious Connected Breathwork journey to connect deeply with the energy centres in your body that help bring you into a peaceful state.

What does this mean? An example could be that you know you're not feeling very grounded in life. When you are doing the breathwork, you may notice this in the root chakra at the base of the spine. So then during the session, when you consciously breathe and focus on your root energy, use inner affirmations and visualisations, you tune in to any blocks and allow them to clear. After clearing your energy in this way, you may get insights and inspiration, you may feel lighter and more grounded in your body.

There are so many proven benefits to this type of breathwork experience, all the systems of your body, especially the nervous system get reset. The mind relaxes and let's go and this in turn helps your whole body feel more aligned and balanced. You feel more connected to yourself and your life.

We breathe together in a group and that makes an additional special energy in the room. Many people come on their own because the space is a welcoming, calm sanctuary for everyone.
