How do I do it?
Breathwork can be done as one-to-one sessions with a practitioner or in a group setting.
The breathing part of the session is usually experienced lying down.
The practitioner sits beside the client and supports him/her to quieten their mind chatter, focus on their breathing and bring awareness to any body sensations, words, memories or images that are present.
A typical session will run for two to three hours and consists of:
- a time of sharing for the client
- the breathing process – this may take from 30-90 minutes
- a debrief – this is the most important part of the session as it allows the client to reflect on experiences, ask questions and relate their session to their present day lives.
