Releasing Trauma From the Body Through Breathwork
Ever wonder how sometimes it feels like there's this unseen weight holding you back……..
Influencing your thoughts and actions in ways you can't quite put your finger on.
It's like carrying around a heavy burden without even realizing it.
How was this handled by our wise ancestors?
Throughout history, many cultures have turned to rituals as a way to release this weight and cleanse the soul.
……………Rituals that science is just now beginning to understand the healing power of.
Common across dozens of cultures is the powerful practice of breath work.
Breathwork is a practice that has been used for centuries by people seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their experiences.
When we experience trauma, whether big or small, it leaves its mark on us………..
especially if we don't integrate it as it happens…… which is common.
We can suppress our response in the moment because our minds may perceive it as too much to handle in the moment
…….or we might not feel it socially acceptable to express the sounds, the words, the physical movements that feel right to make in those moments.
This is a mental mechanism designed to help us. But can be tricky to integrate.
It becomes this weight we carry, shaping our lives in ways we might not fully grasp.
We can get locked up… Develop different automatic thought patterns and behaviors that we may not notice.
How do we unlock?
When in a powerful breathwork session, as we shift the chemistry of the body, we can become more sensitive to lingering tensions and energies in the body. Increased sensitivity to these energetics can help us to really feel the lingering residue of the past and encourage us to act out those sounds and movements that were suppressed during the original “lock up.”
This is how a somatic therapy works.
But with breathwork, the purpose is not to relive those painful moments.
Instead, we're exploring them, integrating our understanding of how they've shaped us.
Through techniques like Wim Hof's breathing method, holotropic breathwork sessions, and the INNER ALCHEMY Nervous System Reset and Breath Portal Sessions ———we're learning to shift and disperse that weight, releasing the hold it has on us and opening ourselves up to new possibilities.
We owe it to ourselves to take off what is dulling our true authentic resonance!
Tap into your breath, tap into your life.
