Breathwork Intensive
Breathwork is a term for various breathing practices in which the conscious control of breathing is said to influence a person's mental, emotional, or physical state, with a therapeutic effect.[1] Breathwork may be helpful for relaxation and stress in a similar way to meditation.[2][3] Although there are claims that breathwork may provide other health benefits, no other health benefits have been proven.[2] During a breathwork session, individuals will typically lie down and be instructed to breathe using particular methods, depending on the sub-type of breathwork.[2] In addition to a practitioner, breathwork sessions will often have "sitters" present. Sitters are individuals who provide emotional or physical support to those practicing breathwork.[1] Most breathwork sessions last around an hour.[2] Breathwork practitioners believe that an individual's particular pattern of passive breathing can lead to insights about their unconscious mind.[1]
Some common side effects include "sleepiness; tingling in the hands, feet, or face; and a sense of altered consciousness that can be distressing to some."[2] Breathwork is generally considered safe if done with a skilled practitioner, but there are contraindications such as cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, high blood pressure, mental illness, severe asthma, or seizure disorders, among others.[1][2]
