Overview of Breathwork: “Breathwork - a particular breathing technique to activate and integrate unprocessed emotions. When we fully feel our emotions they dissipate and leave us feeling more connected, alive, balanced, happy and free.” --excerpt from Heart Centered Living
“There are two Central Ideas in Breath Therapy. The first is this: In the average person, the breathing mechanism is functioning at only a fraction of its potential. The "normal" breathing system has been damaged, inhibited, due to a number of conditions and events, beginning at birth, and including family and cultural influences, as well as every physical and emotional trauma you have survived. Your breathing system needs to be "healed," brought back up to the level that nature intended. The second idea is this: When full free breathing is restored, every system in the body begins to work better. We find that the breath itself naturally heals and renews the body, mind and spirit. "Conscious Breathing" becomes a very powerful self-directed healing process. The breath reveals itself to be an untapped natural resource, a therapeutic tool, for health, growth and change.” --excerpt from The Teaching of Dan Brule
