Breathwork and Mindfulness

What does every world-class athlete do just before they dive, jump, shoot, or swing?
They breathe! They take a conscious breath—or they take a few of them.

Martial artists, healing artists, performing artists, and peak-performers of every kind use conscious breathing to channel and focus their attention and energy.

Tuning into your breathing creates immediate physical and mental focus. A few conscious breaths can strengthen your will, fuel your determination, and renew your commitment to achieving a goal. 

Breathwork is the art and science of using breath awareness and conscious breathing for health, growth and change—in body, mind, and spirit.

Mindfulness can be understood as a calm attentive awareness of one’s mind, body, and emotions; and it can include everything in one’s moment-to-moment reality. 

The subtle movements and sensations connected to the flow of breath provide the perfect means and method of developing mindfulness; and mindfulness is the key to personal development and spiritual enlightenment. 

Conscious Breathing helps you to feel grounded. A few conscious breaths can bring you clarity. A few conscious breaths can restore your emotional balance and help you to recover from an upset or a distraction. 

Conscious Breathing is a natural centering technique. It re-energizes and relaxes you. In fact, conscious breathing is the quickest and most effective way to clear your head, settle your stomach, and calm your nerves. 

The more conscious we are of our breathing, the more conscious we become of everything. The more aware we are of the subtle details of our breathing, the more aware we become of many other things in ourselves and others, in life and the world.

Breathing is literally a source of inspiration. And breathwork is a perfect way to open our hearts to love. The simple act of conscious breathing, in fact, can form the basis of a profound spiritual practice. 

Christian, Muslim, Hindu, and Buddhist saints throughout history incorporated breathwork into their prayers, rituals, and ceremonies. 

The Spirit of Breath has always been at the heart of personal and planetary awakening. And today we find that Breathworkers are at that the cutting edge of the human potential and world peace movements.

The simple act of observing your breath—of turning to it and focusing on it—has so many proven benefits on so many levels that frankly, I think you’d have to be crazy not to practice it!

Breathwork is my passion (pass-I-on). It is also my profession (profess-I-on).

I am committed to helping anyone with a belly button to discover, explore and develop the power and potential of Breathwork. I encourage you to deepen your experience of Conscious Breathing, and to enjoy the benefits for yourself!
