learn to breathe underwater
Everything feels compressed. A weight has settled on your chest and somehow, your lungs don’t quite seem to fill up anymore. Your breath feels tight, constricted, shallow. Like you’ve been holding it for so long, you don’t quite know how to let it flow freely again.
When loss ruptures the very earth that held our roots, it’s like we’re shoved off the deep end. We suck in one final breath — then hold it until we feel we have surfaced again. But the truth is that in order to surface, we need to learn to breathe underwater.
Breathwork is one of the most simple yet supportive resources we have on this messy journey. It helps you hold yourself and your grief, find refuge from the storms, and stay connected to yourself and to life.
Grieving is a bit like trying to breathe underwater.
A 2-hour gentle breath journey designed to help you find your breath again.
This will not be a intensive, peak-experience, go hard or go home type of journey. Your system has been shocked enough. Instead, I’ll guide you to a gentle practice, help you reconnect with your breath and find the places that feel constricted.
Every journey is a little bit different and you will find the intention for each journey listed next to the date.

FAQ

In its simplest form: breathwork is breathing intentionally, consciously and strategically. There are many different forms of breathwork, each of which has its own effects and benefits. We focus primarily on stacked breathing, coherent breathing and connected breathing as we find these to lend themselves best to this online group setting and offer the most benefits during grief.

The type of breathwork will vary and is listed for every specific date. In general, the emphasis will be on gentle connected breathing, stacked breathing and diaphragmatic breathing.

In essence: yes. We need to breathe to live and so working with the breath is available to everyone. However, there are health conditions that make certain types of breathwork unsafe. These are listed in the registration form.

No. Breathwork can support you and help you regulate your nervous system during grief, however it is not a substitute for therapy. If you feel you need further support, please consider reaching out to us about the options for 1-to-1 support. Breathwork can then still very much be part of your journey.
