    What is SPIRITUS Breathwork?

    Updated: Apr 27


    SPIRITUS Breathwork is a form of conscious-connected breathwork blended with Somatics and Shamanic energy to assist the body to enter into altered states for healing and transformation.

    SPIRITUS Breathwork uses the breath to help activate the Sympathetic Nervous System to help complete interrupted Nervous System cycles which may be frozen or stuck due to past trauma’s, experiences and/or chronic levels of stress. Through the breath we get to explore our body, stored emotions, and parts of ourselves we have previously exiled, suppressed or repressed, so that we can allow release, acceptance and healing.


    SPIRITUS Breathwork uses breath, sound and movement to guide the body back to its innate wisdom, its ability to heal itself.


    In SPIRITUS Breathwork, our breath becomes the medicine.


    What to Expect?

    You can expect a range of physical, emotional, spiritual and mental effects in a SPIRITUS Breathwork session. It is also important to note that every SPIRITUS Breathwork experience will be different from one session to another.  Let go of your expectations, and work with what arises. Allow the breath to guide you to exactly where you need to be each time. The sessions are 90 minutes in length.

     

    What makes SPIRITUS Breathwork unique?

    The uniqueness of this breathwork is the creation of Ceremonial space. In Ceremonial Breathwork, we are not just using our breath - our breath becomes the bridge between the worlds. We are creating a ceremonial space that acknowledges the sacred, the presence of our guides and our ancestors, those that bear witness to our transformation and healing. We are utilizing the unseen presence to create healing and transformation.

    If SPIRITUS Breathwork resonates with you or is calling you, schedule a discovery appointment with me (15-20 minutes & it's free!), and read the received document (2 docs - Liability & Waiver, Intake Assessment Form). During this call, I will get to know you, understand your purpose in working with your breath and you will be able to ask any questions that you may have. Once I review the completed forms, I will determine the possibility of scheduling a SPIRITUS Breathwork ceremony.
