Description

We will begin the workshop with an opening circle, which will include introductions

and the opportunity to begin connecting as a community, followed by a Q & A session.

We will then take a break, providing time for participants to choose their

breathing partner for the day. There will be two breathwork sessions, one in the

morning and one in the afternoon. One person will “breathe” in the morning

session, while the other will “sit” for them. They’ll reverse roles in the afternoon.

In simple terms the breather lies on a mat with eyes closed and engages in a

more accelerated, circular breath, while listening to evocative music. The sitter

ensures the breather’s basic, comfort needs are attended to (without interfering

in or interrupting the process), by assisting them to the restroom if necessary or

by offering water, tissues, etc., but only as solicited by the breather. There is a

10 minute relaxation before each breathwork session, led by a facilitator that will

end with a brief instruction about the breath and then the music, and session,

will begin.

After each breathwork session time is provided for those who breathed to

engage in an integrative practice, such as journaling or drawing a mandala.

We will provide art supplies and an art space for this purpose. Please bring

you lunch with you to eat between the morning and afternoon sessions. There

will be tea, coffee, water, and snacks throughout the workshop.

The afternoon breathwork session begins immediately after lunch. The

workshop day will conclude with a closing circle and opportunity for participants

to share their experience. We’ll also talk about integration, as we prepare to

leave the close community we’ve created, re-enter the day-to-day world and

begin to integrate our experience into our everyday lives.
