Breathing for Stress Management

Breathing for Stress Management Workshops

 
Shane’s combination of cognitive and logical concepts soothed my intellect, while the simple yet effective breathing and meditation practices eased my parasympathetic nervous system into a new relaxed place. My days are more energised; and my sleep deeper, and of better quality.

WORKSHOP GOAL

There is nothing more essential to our health and wellbeing than breathing: take air in, let it out, repeat twenty-five thousand times a day. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the connection and the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences.

In this two-part series workshops, we draw on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology, to turn the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head.

You will never breathe the same again. We guide you through some short and simple exercises you can use daily to make a meaningful impact on your stress levels and overall health.
