It All Starts With a Kettle
Have you noticed that when you put the kettle on you are thinking about other things?
It's such an automatic activity that you do it without thinking, leaving your mind free to wander as it will.
And usually your mind goes to your to-do list, decision making, thinking about the next thing, or even going to do the thing you can do in the two minutes it takes for the kettle to boil.
And it's because you're wired that way! The more you get done in a day, the more you can relax knowing you have done your best and been productive.
7 Powerful Modalities to Combine with Breathwork
Breathwork is a profound tool for self-discovery and healing. However, its transformative potential can be further amplified when combined with other complementary modalities. By combining breathwork into various practices, you can create unique and enriching experiences that address the multifaceted needs of your clients and expand your reach as a facilitator.
The Struggle to Live in the Present Moment
When the New Year started, I made a resolution like many others—mine was to live more in the present moment. It felt like the right move after spending years healing from my past.
I used to let my past experiences shape my present and future. I carried them with me, sometimes without even realizing it. But after a lot of healing, I finally felt free, ready to move forward without the baggage of the past holding me down.
The Importance of Continuing Education for Breathwork Facilitators
If I'm honest, when I first finished my yoga teacher training, I felt a bit disillusioned. I expected to emerge knowing everything there was to know about yoga. It took me a while to realise that the training was just a foundation, a starting point. The real learning came from practice, from exploring different styles, and discovering the areas I was truly passionate about – like yin and restorative yoga.
And it's the same with breathwork. The initial training provides you with essential tools and knowledge, but the journey of learning and growth doesn't end there. The world of breathwork is constantly evolving. New research emerges, fresh techniques are developed, and the understanding of the mind-body connection deepens. To truly serve your clients and continue growing as a facilitator, continued education isn't just a good idea - it's essential.
