What is Breathwork?

Breathwork is a technique that uses exercises and stretches to bring awareness to your breathing. As a Breathe™ Certified Coach, I will help you correct poor breathing patterns so that you can strengthen your diaphragm, feel better physically, emotionally and perform better.

My certification was provided by Dr. Belisa Vranich. It was designed to teach about the anatomy and psychology of the breath, working with people to resolve breathing dysfunctions and improve overall health.

Additionally, it teaches a very particular breathing pattern that can be used as an active meditation technique whose purpose is to let go of tension and release emotions.

Most people underuse their diaphragms due to long periods of sitting, emotionall and physical problems and a number of other reasons.

Breathwork has many benefits that range from physical, mental, and emotional healing.

Some benefits of breathwork are:

• Increasing focus and concentration

• improves sports endurance and performance

• Reduce stress and anxiety

• Improve your sleep

• Increase your energy levels

• Reduce neck and shoulder pain

Breathwork is not a replacement for medical or psychological care.
