We take our first breath within ten seconds of coming into the world. For every moment after we continue to breathe life into our bodies and yet, most of us don’t use the proper techniques to optimize this natural bodily function. Give your body a true deep breath with the tools and practice of breathwork therapy. Breathwork meditation encompasses a range of exercises designed to enhance your breath through proper form, posture, inhalation, and exhalation.

Using focused intentional breathing, breathwork therapy improves overall wellness, from mental health to cellular function. With full, satiating breaths in and out, breathwork increases oxygen flow and teaches us how to fully expel stale air from our lungs, disciplining the overactive brain and clearing out stuck energy. This conscious control of the rate, rhythm, and depth of our breath, is a relaxation and meditative technique used to reduce psychological stress, control anxiety and emotion, focus thoughts, and balance the nervous system.

When we think about our breathing, our mind slows down and focuses on the present moment, increasing our concentration and calmness. Breathwork therapy aids in improving health problems associated with chronic stress, greatly reduces blood pressure, and can assist in addiction recovery and the trauma related to it.
