About this offering
Conscious connective breathwork is a "three-part breath" technique that taps into the natural healing capacity of your body to liberate stagnant energy to cultivate harmony and resiliency in your life.
​
This practice intentionally activates the sympathetic nervous system to help discharge accumulated tension, stress and even trauma stored in your body. You may experience the release through movement, sounding or emotions such as laughter or tears. It is all welcome here!
​
We are trauma-informed and committed to providing unconditional care that may include energetic cleansing or consensual touch.​
