Yogi's have known about the healing power of the breath for thousands of years. Breathing techniques can improve physical and emotional well being and help us connect to our deeper selves.

 

Using a Conscious Connected Breath (CCB), which means to inhale and exhale without pause, often in combination with breath retention we can induce an altered state of mind which allows our conscious mind to quieten and we enter a deep meditative state.

 

With regular Breathwork practice we can become more mindful of our thoughts, enabling us to respond to the outside world rather than react to it.

 

Another intention behind this practice is to exert an internal stressor in a relaxed, controlled manner to build our resilience to external stressors in our daily lives.

 

This pattern of breathing can also stimulate memories which keep us attached to our past, allowing them to safely resurface, breathe through them, change our response to them and emerge calmer and clearer.

​

CCB can be used to:

​

• Release tension, stress and anxiety and alleviate depression

• Improve sleep

• Ease respiratory conditions

• Boost the immune system

• Nourish the body and invoke deep relaxation and meditation

• Release trapped emotions

• Connect us to a sense of true happiness

• Develop a new depth to your Yoga/and or spiritual practice
