TESTIMONIALS

 

I took Gwen’s Activation Breathwork Training after attending one of her Breathwork sessions in my community and was so blown away I had to learn her technique myself.

I have been trained in Breathwork before and have knowledge in this area as a certified yoga instructor but the depth of understanding about Breathwork and the ways that I am able, now, with this much deeper and more comprehensive understanding that I got from taking Activation Breathwork Certification, to use Breathwork as a therapeutic tool in my holistic psychiatry practice is invaluable.

I am so thankful I took the Activation Breathwork Certification. Thank you, Gwen!

Dr. Erin Griffiths, Holistic Psychiatrist


I loved taking the Activation Breathwork Training with Gwen. She is a WEALTH of knowledge in this space, and soaking up all the information she knows from her in this training was a true gift. I have my yoga teacher training certification, and adding this Activation Breathwork Training to my instructor toolbox is helpful. I realize how beneficial it is to work with clients who may not be in an actual workout space and to create a space for someone to breathe.

My favorite was learning and practicing one-on-one with other students in the training, and Gwen did real-time coaching and feedback during the course. If you're a coach to others, and feel called to add Breathwork to your toolbox, it is a MUST to have this Activation Breathwork Training under your belt. I love how Gwen integrates these everyday clients and teaches us how to integrate them.

Working with Gwen during the Activation Breathwork Training was a wonderful experience and investment in myself. I signed up for this deep dive with Gwen's coaching after seeing the benefits of breathwork in her New Moon and Full Moon circles in both my overall peace of mind and the insights I received during this powerful practice. The Activation Training was meaningful in both the time spent learning in a small group setting.

The changes I see in my busy life when I make the time to pay attention to my own inner wisdom and practice moving energy through my body using breathwork. The training is clearly organized, trauma-informed, and Gwen does a wonderful job of bringing in outside experts to add knowledge. I made deep connections with others in the group and felt incredibly supported throughout the entire training. I recommend this training to those who want to deepen their own breathwork practice and invest in their mind-body connection.
