Sometimes we don't want to or have the capacity for the deep dive that is a full breath journey. At times we simply need to soothe our nervous system, switch out of fight or flight, into a sense of safety and deep relaxation. We need to gently quiet our mind, connect back into our hearts and bodies and ground ourselves.
Sophia is here to facilitate exactly that, breath sessions and mini journeys designed to soothe and nurture without the breather journeying deeply into his/her subconscious and/or the mystical aspects of Breath Work.
A session runs between two to three hours depending on the needs of the client on the day. The first session will run for at least two and a half hours as it includes a thorough introduction and breath technique segment.
The actual breath journey, where the breather engages a conscious connected breath, (find out what that is here) lasts for between 50 minutes to an hour. However, if the breather wants to or is required to do a modified journey, the journey segment will run for thirty minutes.
What type of journey that will best serve you is decided once you've read the contraindication list and filled out the intake form which I'll send to you once you've made a booking. Someone with sever active trauma would start with a modified journey, you can read more about that here.
At the end of the journey the client will be gently guided into deep relaxation for between 10 to 20 minutes, again the time varies with individual needs. During the deep relaxation segment your breath is relaxed, in a way natural to you.
What I offer before and after the actual journey depends on the needs of the client. But I always incorporate some gentle breathing exercises before each journey to bring the breather into a relaxed and embodied state and to further strengthen the breathers' relationship with their own breath and their body/mind connection.
You may wonder how and if you'll be able to maintain the breath for as long as 50 minutes or more. It sounds like a long time at first, I know, especially if you aren't an avid meditator. The beauty with breath work though is that it quickly alters your brain frequency and takes you into an altered state of consciousness, which means time is only really relevant in the beginning of the journey.
The first ten to fifteen minutes can feel long and restless, you may have mental resistance surfacing, and your body can feel wriggly etc. However, after a little while it's as if you step over a threshold, time as we normally know it disappears, and before you know it you're on the other side entering deep relaxation. I am there to guide you and your breath, I also create playlists to take you through the journey all the way from build up, to peak, to integration. Although, it's important to note that the breather is always in control over how fast, slow or much they breathe. Trust yourself!
