Hello and welcome to the wonderful world of Breathwork.
Our Fabulous Breath
On average we breathe around 22,000 a day, a bodily function that happens without us even registering it, but how many of those breaths are you even aware of? You can go days without food or water but only minutes without breathing. This beautiful natural resource is available within us to call on to change the state of our nervous system at any time. We just need to be reminded (and taught) how to properly use it. Our breath is what sustains life, when we breathe we take in vital oxygen to every cell in our bodies, producing energy, supporting cellular metabolism, energy production, and overall physiological function. The problem is that many of us just aren’t breathing optimally for this to happen.
Engaging in breathwork through pregnancy improves lung function and capacity, stimulates the Parasympathetic state of your nervous system switching you into your rest, digest and relaxed mode, enhances your mood, aids with better sleep and helps you manage pain during labour.
During birth breathwork ensures optimal oxygen delivery and helps break the fear-tension-pain cycle, assisting with pushing and maintaining your energy.
When we begin to slow down and consciously connect with our breath beautiful things happen within the body including:
- Reduced feelings of stress/anxiety/overwhelm and panic
- Less mental chatter
- Clearer thinking
- Increased feelings of gratitude
- Deeper connection with self and others
- Ability to live more in the present
- Deeper awareness of where tension is felt and needs to be released in the body
- Stronger immune system
- Improved digestion
- Feeling less reactive and irritable
- Overwhelming feelings of love and joy

Breath Better to Feel Better Sessions
45 Mins. | £60

Designed to get you breathing optimally again, just like how you did as a baby, before life’s events and emotions have had an effect, with stress and anxiety becoming apparent because of the way you are breathing.
With this session, I will guide you to breathe slowly, in and out of your nose and using your diaphragm, to manage stress and promote relaxation. You will better understand your breathing patterns and how they impact stress and anxiety.
You will gain confidence in your ability to use your breath as a preventative and proactive approach to your well being. All whilst reclining comfortably supported on my Hydrotherm cushions.
