Breathwork
We all want to feel less stress, more present and have more confidence as we move through this world. Breathwork allows us to do just that.

What is Breathwork?
Breathing moves our energy, so we can access a level of clarity that helps us connect to our spirit, to others and accelerate our life.
Breath is our most vital life force mechanism. Breathwork is the exercise of consciously altering the breath to promote an increase of oxygen intake and parasympathetic nervous system activation for mental, physical, and emotional well-being.
Breathwork sessions provided by Dani are focused on the intensive three-part breath that involves inhalation to the belly, to the chest, followed by a large exhale. Other guided breathing techniques will be used to support the flow of this experience. You will be guided through two 20 minute cycles of breathing. Music is provided during the session. This technique is used to clear blockages and find clarity.
An information session is provided before the start of the breathwork where the breathing technique is taught. A small debrief discussion is held where you are supported in sharing your release and your new clarity. Group work is available upon request.
What happens in the body during Breathwork?
As you start the active breath, you begin to increase the level of oxygen in the body. You are oxygenating the blood, stimulating the hypothalamus gland, and releasing endorphins in the body. As the endorphins kick in, the brain is less and less in control though it will try to fight it for the first few minutes. Your body may start to feel electric like it is coming alive with energy. This may be all over, or local to one area. This is when the body begins to open up and energy and emotions can move freely through the body, even those emotions that have seemed stuck for lifetimes.
You are voluntarily stimulating the involuntary system and moving to a higher state of consciousness.
During sessions, clients feel their nervous system slowing down and gain a tangible sense of dropping into their bodies (often in the first few moments). They learn to discharge energy in a safe way, experience awakenings in their intuition, and clarity on their next steps.
