EXPLORE BREATHWORK, NATURE, SOUND, AND EXPRESSIVE MOVEMENT

Join Dr. Laurane McGlynn, Dr. Tom Francescott, and Jeffrey Warren and experience the remarkable healing potential and therapeutic benefits of Holotropic Breathwork®.

Holotropic Breathwork® is a powerful breathwork practice that allows for self-exploration and healing. With the eyes closed and lying on a mat, each person uses their own breath and the music in the room to enter an expanded state of consciousness. This state activates the natural inner healing potential of the breather—or "inner healer"—which guides the experience. The New York Times described holotropic breathwork as an effective way to heal yourself and improve mood (source). The therapeutic benefits of holotropic breathwork can include releasing and healing trauma, improving anxiety and depression, higher insights of spiritual understanding, increased connection to self and others, and opening to compassion and love. 

In this double breathwork workshop, you will experience:

  • Four Holotropic Breathwork® sessions (two as a breather/two as a sitter) 
  • A sound healing session
  • Nature-based practices
  • Mask making
  • Movie yoga
  • Expressive movement
  • creating art altars in nature
  • An evening community fire gathering.  

Whether you are new to holotropic breathwork or highly experienced, this program can help you reconnect with your own inner healing wisdom. It is open to new or experienced breathers or anyone interested in learning more about this type of breathwork. It is also approved by Grof Transpersonal Training and Grof Legacy Training to meet the breathwork requirements of your training. For anyone in a psychedelic-assisted therapy training program, this workshop may fulfill your requirement for sitting for others in expanded states of consciousness.
