Sessions

Join Jessica Kruger and myself for 5 accessible breathwork techniques. This session is intended for any level of ability! Modifications are also included.

Ujjayi or "ocean breathing" is done by creating a constriction in the back of your throat to mimic the sound of waves. There are many benefits to this practice, though one of the greatest is a calmed nervous system. It's so discreet, it can be practiced anywhere!

Bhastrika, or "fire breathing" is a technique to build up heat and burn off toxins in the body. Other benefits include: improving lung capacity, digestion, and focus.

Brahmari or "bee breath" creates a healing frequency by making a "hummm" sound as you exhale. This is an ancient practice, still common today for good reason! Please note that if you struggle with extreme anxiety or panic attacks, the humming may be triggering and you can opt for full gentle breaths instead.

Let's learn anulom vilom or "alternate nostril breathing". This is a great technique for grounding yourself during stress or anxiety, as it encourages both sides of your brain to communicate with each other, leading to rational thought.

In this video, we'll cover how to safely get into and out of savasana (a.k.a final relaxation) pose. Savasana is a wonderful technique to relax your entire body and mind. Optional: cushion and folded blanket for comfort.

In this technique session, we cover pineal gland breathing (sometimes referred to as nadi shodana). This is a way to open your sinus cavity during congestion and also breathe in healing energy to your brain.

Box breathing is a powerful tool to immediately get in touch with your body and take control of your present moment. In this short technique session, we cover how to box breathe using your hand as a tactile guide. Find a comfy spot, and let's box breathe!

Pillow breathing, is a simple, yet powerful technique to find immediate connection between your body and breath. This has been proven especially effective for those with anxiety as the pillow acts almost like a weighted blanket, while your mind sinks deeper into a state of calm and awareness. Find a quiet and cozy spot, and let's practice one of the most relaxing pranayama techniques! Note: Those with HBP, a heart condition, or epilepsy should not attempt the 3 step breathing that we incorporate towards the end of this session.
