Breathwork has been a powerful tool for me to heal my grief. It has allowed me to turn towards the complex and difficult emotions that have accompanied each of my losses. And it is something I have witnessed time and again in the sessions I offer.
Breathwork offers us a space “out of time” a space away from our ordinary way of thinking and being. It allows us to enter the unknown, the liminal spaces of not knowing and offers us an opportunity to connect with our grief for what we’ve lost in a new way, in a way of remembering of being together and of celebrating our lives together.
We only grieve for that which we love and when we have space to feel it all, grief can soften us, it can tenderise our hearts to open to the love that is eternal, that is beyond.
This will be a gentle heart opening breath journey to honour that which we grieve for. It may be a loved one, a pet, a past relationship or our grief for the earth. We will light a candle, breathe and connect with these important parts of our lives that we have lost.
Halloween or Samhain is the Celtic fire festival representing the end of the celtic year. It is said that here the veil between worlds is at its thinnest, it is often seen as a portal time allowing access the otherworld. A time to journey deep into the void and communicate with those that have passed. A time to give thanks to our ancestors and all who have gone before us.
WHAT TO EXPECT?
- We will begin with an opening breath awareness meditation to help you reconnect with your body and breath.
- We will each light a candle for something or someone in our lives we have lost bringing awareness to them within our circle of being together
- I will then explain the technique, so we all know what to expect.
- We will then move into some embodied movement to open our bodies and shake out the tension
- Then lie down and get comfy and I will guide us through a 60 min Conscious Connected Breathwork journey, set to carefully selected music.
- Then it’s time for integration and heart-centred sharing before we close the space.
These sessions are a beautiful way to come together and experience the power of group healing where we all learn and grow from each others experiences. They offer the opportunity to delve deeper into our own inner worlds with the support and connection of others.
This will be small group circle of up to 8-10 people, to keep it safe and intimate and no previous experience necessary.
A garden beyond Paradise (excerpt from)
by Rumi
“Every wondrous sight will vanish,
every sweet word will fade.
But do not be disheartened,
The Source they come from is eternal
growing, branching out,
giving new life and new joy.
Why do you weep?
That Source is within you,
and this whole world
is springing up from it.
The Source is full,
its waters are ever-flowing;
Do not grieve,
drink your fill!
Don’t think it will ever run dry
This is the endless Ocean“
