It’s only now, on the eve of graduating as a Breathwork Facilitator with Breathing Space that I'm starting to grasp what this training has done for me personally.

This feels incredibly vulnerable to share this but I think it’s important that I do. One of the most important parts of training to become an apprentice breathwork facilitator is allowing myself to go to my most tender places in my own breathwork journey. This journal entry gives a little glimpse into what this can look like using a personal example.

Breathing in this way means taking in a lot more air (about 3 times more) than you would with normal breathing and this can cause quite powerful physical, mental, emotional or spiritual sensations or experiences. This can feel quite intense, especially the first time you try it. I’ll go through each of these, including what I personally have experienced in breathwork sessions.

Have you been hearing people talking about something called breathwork and wondering what it is? Maybe you've even heard some people calling breathwork the new yoga and you want to know what the fuss is all about. In this journal entry, I'm sharing all the need-to-know basics about breathwork so you can decide if it might be something you want to try!

“I feel overwhelmed.” How many times have you thought or said this in the last week? How about in the last month? I know that overwhelmed is one of my default settings.
