Are you struggling with life?
The idea that if we bury emotions they ‘go away’ is a myth. They don’t. Banished emotions become stored in our bodies, deep in our hearts, hidden in the shadows, guarded with armour and a burden on the soul.
Ultimately our bodies do not forget, and it is the disowned parts of us, longing to be processed that find other ways to be felt. Repressed trauma, experiences and emotions reveal themselves in unfavourable ways - chronic illness, burnout, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, relationship difficulties, shyness, lack of self-esteem, lack of confidence, social phobia, addiction, self-harm, not knowing who you are, suicidal ideation, loneliness, abuse, never feeling like you belong or fit in.
For me personally, Breathwork changed my life and led me on the most profound healing pathway.
I was a very depressed teenager, full of shame, hurt and anger, and fighting to understand the meaning of life. Back in the 80s this was not something that was spoken openly about, and I spent much of my time feeling alone, masking, and full of rage. It was through my spiritual journey, deep personal inquiry, writing and research that I connected with my own embodied trauma, pre-menstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), and more recently, to ADHD.
Breathwork took me beyond the limited beliefs I had about myself and elevated me to a place of unbounded trust and surrender. I felt hope in every cell of my body and knew with undeniable certainty that this had come into my life as a gift; the switch was turned on and the light never dimmed.
My path led me to offer this life changing practice to others.
My intention is to support you to understand your thoughts, feelings, and life experiences as valid responses to your previous and current experience, so that you can feel empowered and begin to heal.

Breathe in (receive). Life force, chi, prana, spirit, harmony.
Breathe out (release). Dissolve fear, shed shame, trust.

What is Conscious Connected Breathwork?
The approach we are going to be using is Conscious Connected Breathing – This way of breathing comes from the original Rebirthing tradition taught by Leonard Orr but there are now many Breathwork schools around the world which use the same process, each with their own particular approach.
Conscious Connected Breathing is the bridge between the conscious and the unconscious, where you can choose to purposefully meet and embrace previously unresolved issues, dissolve trapped emotions and heal whatever is getting in the way of your potential, your wellness, and your peace. It combines counselling and insight as well as a somatic experiential process where you find a deep level of awareness, release emotional baggage, unconsciously held beliefs (personal lies), and actually feel the patterns shifting and transforming at a deep cellular level.
As we fully connect with our breath, we begin to trust and attune to the messages within our body. We develop a capacity and courage to face and own our sadness, anger, fear, and shame and fully connect to life.
