Sessions last between 75 and 90minutes, with 21-35 minutes of active breathing. The breath is all done through the mouth while lying down on a massage table. It begins with a short inhale into the lower belly, and a second inhalation into the upper chest, and then an easy exhale. This active meditation stills the mind and brings your attention and awareness into your body. 

Your body may feel tight or uncomfortable in places that the breath and energy is encountering some resistance. Continued practice with the breath will eventually help you to release this tension and any emotional or energetic blocks! The conscious mind tries to stay in control during the first few minutes of the breath and as you meet new thresholds of depth in the work. It does this by thinking resistant thoughts, trying to distract you with any and everything possible, or causing you to yawn. The increased oxygen alkalizes the body by reducing the acidity in the blood. As the oxygen reaches the brain, it stimulates the hypothalamus gland causing it to release endorphins, which in turn activate the other ductless glands in the body. When endorphins begin to flow, the brain begins to relax and the body begins to emotionally release. 

Any places in your body that you are stuck or holding onto anger, fear, or sadness will come to the surface. As awareness is brought into stuck energy, it can begin to move. The breath is the fuel to moving energy in your body. As it continues to bump up against any blockages, eventually causing a cathartic release as it pushes through. Once this happens, you may experience a flood of clarity, joy, love, or forgiveness!
