what if courage was the cost of confidence?

holotropic breathwork, transformational breathwork,or regenerative breath is a conscious connected somatic breathing practice that helps you to access to the subconscious mind, release trapped emotions and aids in neuroplasticity. this practice takes roots in dirgha and kapalabhati pranayama and other yogic, tibetan and taoist spiritual healing practices. it was later developed at johns hopkins in the 1790s by dr. stanislav grof one of the principal developers of transpersonal psychology and research into the use of non-ordinary states of consciousness for purposes of psychological healing, deep self-exploration, and obtaining growth and insights into the human psyche. he developed this program as a successor to his lsd-based psychedelic therapy, following the suppression of legal lsd use in the late 1960s.

this breathwork technique uses accelerated breathing patterns to bypass the mind, access the subterranean territory of your subconscious, and enter altered states of consciousness without any substances.

this rapid breathing can feel intense, and overwhelming but the benefit is in leaning into the discomfort and going beyond the fear. you’re invited to come as you are feel, release and scream so that you release residual bioenergetic and emotional blocks.
