Brooklyn Breathwork at MINKA

  • MINKA Brooklyn Brooklyn (map)

Join Gwen in this two-hour workshop on how we can use our breath to embody our fullest potential.

Breathwork is an active, three-part breathing technique that allows individuals to make transformative decisions from the heart, and put them into action with clarity and purpose. While some meditation practices keep the participant in their head and observing their thoughts, Breathwork allows you bypass the thinking mind and dive into your body and heart for answers.

In this workshop Gwen will co-create a sacred space through ancient rituals from the Shamanic tradition, using Palo Santo and Sage as energy cleansers; how to use the directions (east, south, west and north), the elements (fire, air, water, earth), as well as the spirit animals associated with each direction and element, to create a sacred space. Gwen will provide an overview of Breathwork, and share her own journey with Breathwork. 

Each participant will set an intention for the breathing, then lie on the floor and actively breathe for 25-minutes while music is played, followed by a 10-minute meditation. Participants will return to the circle for group sharing, questions and answers, and guidance on how to move forward in their life from this embodied and elevated space. Gwen closes the circle with gratitude. Participants leave feeling connected, empowered, peaceful and calm; inspired from within to put their intention into action.

Breathwork benefits can include: relief from stress, depression, anxiety, release of fear, anger, blocks or tension. This technique allows the practitioner to open to a natural state of peace, calm, gratitude, clarity and connection, in order to experience more grace and flow.
