Breath Essentials

Breathwork is the practice of consciously engaging with and modifying your breathing patterns, altering the pace and depth, to have a targeted impact on your mental, emotional, and physical well-being.

There are many varied breathing techniques available, most of which are rooted in ancient traditions. 

The Breathwork techniques I teach are mostly derived from ancient practices like Pranayama. Their effectiveness is well-supported by numerous scientific studies.

Breathwork has a direct physiological effect on your body, mind and your nervous system. Scientists have measured it and most importantly you can feel it.

Maybe Breathwork is the missing piece in your wellness routine?

Why is Breathwork the perfect companion for our busy, chaotic lives? It takes you out of your head and into your body. When most of us are running through our day-to-day, Breathwork helps us to slow down, regulate ourselves, and connect with ourselves. Isn't this the foundation for everything?

I see Breathwork as a tool for every day: accessible, simple, and effective.

In my approach to Breathwork, I combine traditional techniques with the principles of functional breathing – ancient wisdom, scientifically validated.

Whether you’re seeking inner peace, stress relief, emotional balance, or more energy – a regular Breathwork practice offers the key to all these benefits and more.

Depending on the effect you're looking for, you should choose the appropriate breathing technique or a combination of techniques. Breath Essentials offers you the ideal, accessible foundation for your daily needs. 

What is it that you are looking for?

Generally yes. 

The great thing about Breathwork is that we already possess the only tool we need: our breath.

However, there are certain constraints for pregnant women, individuals with cardiovascular issues, respiratory conditions,  specific mental health states or right after surgery. 

In these cases, it's crucial to consult with a doctor and/or a qualified and experienced Breathwork coach to ensure that the techniques are suitable for your individual needs.

I am more than happy to assist you by providing recommendations and guidance.
