Breathwork Coaching
(Specialist in trauma release)
In person or online

What is Breathwork Coaching?

​When we've experienced some big things in our lives, 

We may have a sense that there is a residue left in our system that is weighing us down.

While we may be able to rationalise things...

Our body may tell us another story...

And each body is unique....

​

Perhaps we have a generalised feeling of anxiety, or we experience IBS, menstrual issues, thyroid issues or chronic pain. 

And we have a sense that they are related to an emotional build up inside of us.

​

When we deepen our breathing over a sustained amount of time...

An alchemy starts to occur in our system...

an altered state of consciousness, as the body is given the conditions to heal itself.

The breath (and fascia of the body) hold our patterns of stress, trauma, anxiety...

and as we begin to release them...

the body begins to let go of old imprints it has been holding on to.

 

With that release can come greater contentment or acceptance, emotional release, release of uncomfortable feelings in the body or deep states of peace, or deep clarity on next steps.

​

So Breathwork is a revolutionary tool for women's health and is a self healing modality. The way we breathe can profoundly affect our perception of life. As babies we have a full, free and unrestricted breath to match our sense of wholeness. As adults, most of us develop holding patterns in our breath, often arising from emotional wounds, physical challenges or traumas.

 

​Through an intentional and safe increase of oxygen levels, we activate different areas of the brain to create new neural pathways for deeper insights and heightened clarity, while meeting the root of unresolved imprints for integration and healing. 

​

By breathing into the unknown, we bring life and energy to that which is blocked, dormant or repressed so it can be released.

Testimonial

​

'I wanted to work with Anna Brook and experience the healing power of conscious connected breathwork to facilitate the release of emotions that had been stored up over the years. To make more space for the joyful me to emerge. 

​​

I was surprised by how fast the breathwork shifts emotions and physical tensions, and how much it shifts. 

 

We worked through past life traumas, epigenetic wounds, and more recent traumas linked to a bad birth experience. Anger, rage, guilt, and shame all came up to be released. As I felt the powerful shifts within, I saw the shift in my everyday behaviours too. As I felt safer in my own skin, I noticed how I was more able to embrace each day with ease, joy and excitement.

 

I highly recommend anyone needing to work through tough feelings, PTSD symptoms or find inner peace to work with Anna - she is a gifted healer and teacher. I look forward to working with Anna more in the future, now I have found a way to release emotions that works for me, I don't have to experience such a build-up, and I can continue to be my best self, and live my best life!'

What happens in a Breathwork session?

 

·      We begin with a consultation and chance for you to share anything you’d like to.

·      We then move into a breath pattern analysis, offering you the chance to receive feedback on your personal patterns so that we can work towards freeing them.

·      You’ll be taught the Conscious Connected Breath technique – a simple yet transformative tool that you can use for life.

·      We sometimes incorporate other elements with the breath – including massage, movement, affirmations, visualisation, and sound healing (with your permission in a safe container).

·      We close with time for integration and coaching around what arises.​
