Breathing exercises have a positive effect on our health by reducing Acute stress, stimulating the production of ‘happiness hormones’ and can release stuck Chronic stress.
In the breathing sessions, we mainly use the Connected Breathing Method. During this technique, you breathe deeply in and out in a relaxed manner, for a longer period of time. Due to the increased amount of oxygen in your bloodstream and focusing your attention on rhythmic breathing, after some time you enter a state of expanded awareness.
A special meditative ZEN experience
Emotions, thoughts and breathing are closely linked. When you get angry, you breathe differently than when you are sad. A breathing session makes it much easier to get in touch with your feelings, emotions and your inner compass. This can give powerful insights about what you have to do and help you make any choices.
In the active part of the breath session - because of activation exercises & connected breath work - you enable yourself to sink into a deep meditation, in this phase you learn how to let go of emotions - the release phase. From this state, you know exactly which step you have to take or when you have to wait a while.
We have mainly learned to use our head, our mind. It can therefore sometimes be quite a challenge to be in touch with our gut feeling. That part in yourself where your intuitive abilities reside plus a clear knowing. That is exactly what these sessions achieve, you get back in touch with your deeper being and gut feeling.
