Relieve Stress and Clear the Heart and Mind

Ancient shamanic sages and masters realized that we can activate a wide array of internal healing resources simply by modifying the pace and depth of the breath. It is easy and quite profound—an amazing, yet neglected, gift to humanity! During these hectic and unpredictable times, it’s more important than ever to know how to access the “breath medicine” that is inherent within—anytime and anywhere.  

Join physician, author, and master qigong teacher Dr. Roger Jahnke for a comprehensive retreat that will empower you with “The 5 Primary Breath Methods”. Dr Jahnke distilled these five methods from the traditional breath practice systems of all the ancient, indigenous societies. They are very accessible and easily repeatable—and you can implement them anywhere, anytime:  

  • The Conscious Breath  
  • The Maximum Breath
  • The Elixir Breath
  • The Ultra Breath
  • The Breath Symphony  

The Breath Medicine System is a treasure that you can keep, use, and share for the rest of your life.

In this program, you will:

  • Learn, practice, and expand embody the Four Core Breath Medicine Methods.  
  • Orchestrate extended breath practice combinations called Breath Symphonies.  
  • Relieve stress and clear the heart and mind.  
  • Deepen your meditation for clarity and inner peace.  
  • Activate the medicine within—your body's inherent self-healing capacities—for all chronic health challenges.  
  • Cultivate transcendental states.
  • Create an approach that is accessible and can continue for a lifetime.

Research shows that breath modification can positively impact our vagal tone, autonomic nervous system, and heart rate while activating immunity, reducing inflammation, and more. Amazingly, breath practice is very simple and can be done anywhere. It will be easy to use the tools you learn in this retreat for the rest of your life! Return home with a deeper understanding of how and why people have been using these simple, accessible breath practices for more than 100,000 years.

NOTE: Participants will receive access to The Breath Medicine Video Library (a $225 value) as a free gift.
