A Taste of SomaBreathe

somabreathe

Tell Me More…

Learn to expand your breathing potential, and increase your energy and vitality through a somatic approach to breathing.
These particular SomaBreathe (somatic breathing) exploration are based on the structure of 4 phases of breathing: inhale / pause / exhale / pause.  Each session will explore a different aspect of the breath and also begin to introduce you to a somatic approach.
Alongside the awareness of breathing, we will guide you in to a deeper sense of yourself using proprioception (where you are in space) and interoception (how you sense yourself from the inside). In this way, each lesson is like an embodied meditation that also gives you the opportunity to sense more of you, and make changes that enhance and improve your breathing capacity.
Each of these SomaBreathe sessions is designed to build up progressively to the final lesson, where you get to creatively explore changing your own breathing patterns.
We’ve also included a longer 50+ min  Class as a Bonus to experience a longer immersive experience to enjoy.

I love how this work has been built from the bottom up, as it were, stacked layer on layer. As ever, the subtlest adjustments can make such a huge difference. Thank you for all the detailed, exquisite guidance and check ins. I’ll be releasing from the centre, going out …

New learnings are indeed taking place, and it’s nice to notice how the practice helps me grow in body/soma awareness, and how that informs more comfort and ease in movement.
