Breath is Life: Spring Equinox

An afternoon of breath, reflection, and community connection…

Breath is Life is an active breathwork practice that helps us listen inward and connect to the wisdom of our hearts.  Along our journey we will use essential oils and conversation prompts to open access to deeper layers of our emotional and energetic bodies for self-connection and healing.  Whether you’re new to breathwork or an experienced practitioner, this practice will meet you wherever you are in your journey. The style of pranayama breathwork we will be doing is not about forcing “results” or even reaching a specific goal; rather, it is an opportunity to remember and allow what is already inside to surface.  We’ll use the life-giving power of the breath to move stuck energy, clear old patterns, and release what is no longer in service of our lives.

Prior to our session, please journal on these prompts:

    • What seeds are you planting in your life?  What are the ways you wish to grow?

    • Where do you feel stuck in your life?  

    • How did your parents or upbringing shape your beliefs around change?

What to Expect:

    • Opening circle - doors close at 1:10pm as this is a closed container

    • Paired partner work on the above conversation prompts 

    • Essential oils created specifically for breathwork and earth elements to aid depth of exploration

    • A full breathwork session (about 35-45 minutes), followed by rest and integration

    • Closing circle and optional sharing

What to Bring:

    • A yoga mat or blanket to lie on

    • An eye mask or something to cover your eyes

    • A journal and pen

    • A water bottle

    • Comfortable, cozy layers

About Alex Bedner:
At age 11, I first discovered the power of breath through playing the trombone. Over my twenty-three years of studying and playing professionally, I spent countless hours thinking and practicing the perfect inhalation/exhalation for a given musical moment.

On that journey of studying and using my breath to create sound, I experienced a remarkable sense of inner peace - I mistakenly thought it was playing the music. When I first experienced breathwork, it was the first time I connected the dots that breath can open deeper doorways to self-connection and self-healing.

That led me to become a student of David Elliot, world-renowned author, teacher, and healer, and have completed his comprehensive Healer Training program. From that moment, I have been using breathwork to explore my inner realms, while gaining clarity and inner knowing in service of becoming the fullest expression of who I am.  I am honored to share this beautiful practice with you, in community!
