Breathwork & Deep Rest

This is not about pushing, forcing, or emotional release. It is gentle, grounded and trauma-informed, and helps you restore and regulate your nervous system, and build capacity.

Breathwork and Deep Rest Practices

All sessions are trauma-informed and choice-led. You are always encouraged to listen to your body, modify practices, or pause at any time. Breathwork is never forced.

A typical session may include:
- Grounding and orientation
- Gentle breath or deep rest practices adapted in real time
- Time to notice bodily signals and responses - where appropriate
- Space to settle and integrate
- Optional reflection

This is NOT:
- Intense cathartic release
- No extreme over-breathing or breath-holds

  • A personalised and paced session focused on regulation and capacity.

  • A personalised and paced session focused on restoration.

  • Carefully facilitated, with clear boundaries and nervous-system informed pacing.

    Book for 6-8 participants.

  • Accessible breath-based practices designed for professional environments.

FAQs

  • No experience is needed.

    You don’t need to breathe “correctly” or in a certain way. We work with what’s already available to you.

  • Breathwork is the intentional use of the breath to support awareness, regulation, and nervous system balance.

    In my work, breath is used gently and responsively, and not as a performance or a technique to “push through” discomfort.

  • No. I do not use fast, forceful, or cathartic breathing styles.

    This work is not about emotional release at all costs. It’s about helping your nervous system feel supported and resourced.

  • No. If you resonate with overwhelm, intensity, or navigating high pressured environments, this work may still be a good fit.

  • This breathwork is used to support nervous system regulation, not intensity or emotional release.

    Depending on your needs, this may include:

    • Regulation-based breathing (informed by Polyvagal Theory)

    • Breathing to support deep rest, sleep and recovery

    • Breathing chemistry (reducing over-breathing, improving efficiency & capacity)

    • Breathing mechanics (nasal, diaphragmatic, less effortful breathing)

    • Breathing for movement or exercise

    • Breathwork to support burnout and chronic overwhelm

    • Breathwork to build interoceptive awareness and presence

    All practices are paced, practical, and responsive to your system.

  • Most contraindications relate to extreme breathwork, such as prolonged breath holds or forceful over-breathing.

    The breathwork I use is gentle and regulation-focused. There is no pushing, hyperventilation, or intense breath retention. Practices are always adapted, and breathwork is optional.

    Breath-hold and over-breathing training is not for individuals with:

    • Cardiac issues (e.g., heart disease, arrhythmias).

    • Uncontrolled high blood pressure or diabetes.

    • Severe respiratory diseases (e.g., COPD, emphysema).

    • Pregnancy.

    • History of stroke or aneurysm.

    • Recent high stress, anxiety or panic attacks

    • Psychosis or PTSD
