It was one of those workdays. My inbox was overflowing, my to-do list wasn’t getting any shorter, and deadlines were looming. As I sat at my desk, hunched over my keyboard, I noticed something—I wasn’t breathing. Not really. My shoulders were tense, my chest tight, and I realised I’d been holding my breath.

Ever feel like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders? Like stress and tension are just stuck in your body? Somatic breathwork can help. It's like a reset button for your nervous system that you can anytime, anywhere.

What if the simple act of breathing could transform your body, mind, and emotions? It might sound too good to be true, but the science of breathwork reveals how this fundamental process holds the key to profound change.

We're constantly bombarded with stimuli, our minds racing, our bodies tense and so many people are looking for ways to reconnect with themselves. You may have heard about "somatic breathwork" promising exactly that. Maybe you’ve found yourself having a bit of FOMO and thinking “oh no, I’ve just found Breathwork! Now I have to try Somatic Breathwork?”

At Breathing Space, we believe in stripping away the jargon and getting to the heart of what truly matters. And the truth is, almost all conscious breathwork practices are inherently somatic. It's about connecting with your body, feeling your breath, and noticing the sensations that arise. You don't need fancy labels or exclusive techniques to experience the power of breathwork.
