Everyone wanting to learn more about the practice and theory of breathwork. Firstly, for yourself as a practitioner but also when you’re a yoga teacher, consciousness teacher or coach. It will give you powerful tools to work with together with your students and clients.

Day 1: The Fundamentals of Breathwork: Body and Mind

On this day you will experience proven techniques and their effect on the body and mind. We first experience the techniques and then go into the physical, psychological and scientific aspects of the breath. This will be the flow for the first day: A deep personal experience followed by theory and explanation.

Breathwork has three important methods:

1. Breath awareness 

2. Down-regulating breathing techniques to influence the state of being

3. Up-regulating breathing techniques for transformation and spiritual development

On this day we go into the body and mind aspects of the breath:

• Breath awareness: how to feel and witness your current state of being

• Stress-release: How to deeply relax the body and mind

• How to contact and open the body with the breath

• How to contact and open emotions with the breath

• How to go from overthinking to deep embodied feeling

• How to release old trauma and stuck emotions

• How to enter flow states with your breath

• How to sleep better and deeper

• How to create a new positive story of self

• How to become more creative and open minded

• How and when to use the inhale, exhale and breath pauses

At the end of this day you will understand and most importantly have experienced how breathwork can help you become more healthy, happy and balanced. We end the first day with a beautiful deep musically guided breathwork session which will integrate many of the techniques.

Day 2: A Spiritual Breathwork Journey

This second day will be a personal deep dive on how to use the breath on the spiritual path. A journey of transformation, letting go and personal growth.

• Experience and learn deep transformational breathwork and energy-work techniques

• How to integrate breathwork into your daily spiritual practice

• Self-exploration and Self-realization through breathwork

• Learn and experience how the breath can open up deep layers of consciousness

• Shamanic traditional practices by use of drums, dream states, spirits and visions

• Energy work and bodywork

• How to use the energy centers, chakra’s and bindu’s, as focal points

At the end of this day you will have experienced new and deep layers of your consciousness and you will know how to integrate this in your spiritual path.

The 2 day retreat will be guided by Peter Vermeiren (Breathwork and Spiritual Coach with a medical background) and Nicole Riviere (Energy worker and shamanic practitioner) from BreathandEnergy.com. Peter and Nicole are a spiritual couple with more the 20 years of experience in many traditions like Bhuddism, Hinduism, Shamanism, Classical Tantra, Meditation, Breathwork and Energywork.
