What is Breath Medicine?
Breath Medicine weaves together ideas from breathwork, mindfulness, somatic therapy, earth connection practices and psychedelic therapy.
You will learn to journey with the breath to access expanded states of consciousness, and integrate those experiences into meaningful action and lasting change in your life.
The core principles of Breath Medicine are:
Relationship
At its core, Breath Medicine is about building and deepening relationships. This begins with the co-creation of safety - a shared commitment between facilitators and practitioners, cultivated through preparation, presence, and clear intention. From this foundation, we explore and deepen our relationship with the breath, which opens the door to exploring and deepening the multitude of other relationships in our lives - with our bodies, minds, hearts, and spirits; our families and communities; and everything that makes up the web of life we belong to - from the plants and animals around us, to the rivers and rocks beneath us, to the cosmos above.
This philosophy is built on the understanding that it is through relationship that we heal, and through relationship that we find joy and happiness.
Led by You
Once the container is set, you’re empowered to take the lead as you journey with the breath. Facilitators will always honor and respect the wisdom of your body and psyche, offering support and guidance from their own experience, always respecting your autonomy and agency.
Cultivating Mindful Awareness
You’ll be supported to connect and be with the sensations, emotions, thoughts and imagery of each moment. Cultivating mindful awareness and acceptance supports you to deepen into the experience and builds resilience, presence, and well-being.
Creative Expression
Every one of us is unique. We have our own ways of being and our own gifts to share with the world. Breath Medicine isn’t about fixing, it’s about connecting you with the fullest expression of yourself, so you can share your gifts fully and joyfully.
Integration
The journey is only the beginning. Breath Medicine supports practitioners to explore a variety of techniques to integrate the material that surfaces during Breath Medicine journeys - translating insight into meaningful change in everyday life.
Who is Breath Medicine for?
Breath Medicine is for anyone seeking a deeper connection with themselves, their body, and the world around them.
It’s for those who sense there’s more to life than the day-to-day rush - who are ready to slow down, feel, and listen.
It’s for people longing to heal, grow, and live with more presence, joy, and authenticity.
You might be drawn to Breath Medicine if you:
Are navigating a period of change, challenge, or transition and want tools for grounding and clarity.
Feel disconnected from your body, emotions, or sense of purpose and want to reconnect.
Are curious about altered-state or expanded-state practices and want a safe and grounded way to explore them.
Have engaged in psychedelic-assisted therapy and want to integrate insights and experiences into your daily life.
Work in a helping or creative profession and are seeking embodied ways to replenish and stay connected to your own vitality.
Simply want to deepen your relationship with your breath, your body, and your innate wisdom.
For those who hold spaces for transformation and healing, Breath Medicine supports you to become a deeply attuned practitioner - able to hold space for growth with skill, sensitivity, and presence. Whether you’re drawn to personal transformation, professional development, or both, Breath Medicine meets you exactly where you are and supports you to grow from there.
Why Breath Medicine?
Breathwork and plant medicine (aka psychedelics) are getting a lot of attention, and are making a move from the fringes of our culture into the mainstream.
Breath Medicine aims to integrate ideas from a number of breathwork approaches, with trauma-informed somatic facilitation and a deep sense of humility. It focuses on relational safety and empowering participants as the backbone of the work. It is informed by the emerging research, yet is openly accepting of the mysterious and sacred nature of exploring expanded states.
It was created by breathworkers who were somatic facilitators and trainers in the field of psychedelic-assisted therapy before entering the field of breathwork - and it aims to integrate the best of these worlds, with a focus on creating safety, minimising power dynamics and empowering participants to connect with their unique essence, in order to live joyful, vibrant lives.
