Details of this retreat
The Re-Wilding workshop is a four-day immersive retreat that integrates Holotropic Breathwork, mindfulness, sound healing and nature-based practices to work with the physical, emotional, relational and spiritual aspects of the human experience.
Holotropic Breathwork® is a powerful breathwork practice that allows for self-exploration and healing. With the eyes closed and lying on a mat, each person uses their own breath and the music in the room to enter an expanded state of consciousness. This state activates the natural inner healing potential of the breather—or "inner healer"—which guides the experience. The therapeutic benefits of Holotropic Breathwork can include releasing and healing trauma, improving anxiety and depression, higher insights of spiritual understanding, increased connection to self and others, and opening to compassion and love.
In this double breathwork workshop, you will experience:
Four Holotropic Breathwork® sessions (two as a breather/two as a sitter)
A sound healing session
Mask making
Creating nature mandalas
Nature-based mindfulness practices
Forest Meditation
An evening community fire gathering
Whether you are new to holotropic breathwork or highly experienced, this program can help you reconnect with your own inner healing wisdom. It is open to new or experienced breathers or anyone interested in learning more about this type of breathwork. It is also approved by Grof Transpersonal Training and Grof Legacy Training to meet the breathwork requirements of your training. For anyone in a psychedelic-assisted therapy training program, this workshop may fulfill your requirement for sitting for others in expanded states of consciousness.
