Sometimes “talk therapy” is not enough and you want to go deeper. Integral Breath Therapy is a healing modality that uses simple breath patterns to take you into a deep state of consciousness where emotional healing can be more easily accessed. This altered state modality safely accesses repressed memories and creates an environment for the natural, organic release of physical, psychological and emotional traumas creating lasting changes because it gets to the underlying cause or root of the symptoms. By going underneath the “story” or repetitive dramas in life, belief systems are revealed along with the reason for their existence. The awareness of these patterns and how they affect one’s life is crucial to creating a future that is different from the past.

The origin of most human behavioural difficulties is in very early childhood experiences. Early in life we learn to suppress our emotions physically by tensing our muscles and restricting our breath. Over time, this protective process becomes chronic and automatic and we lose the capacity to experience and express our emotions. When we resist our breath we resist living fully. This modality is specifically designed  to enhance the psychological, emotional, spiritual and physical well-being of client.

The difference between all the talk therapy, books, workshops, is that breathwork moves unprocessed emotions from a cellular level. The approach is a somatic embodied one that creates a bridge between the body, mind and spirit, the conscious and the unconscious mind, allowing you to enter into a altered state where expanded awareness and healing can occur. In essence it moves beyond your ‘monkey mind’ which keeps you stuck.

Integral Breath Therapy complements therapy by providing a special time, place, and technique for going more deeply within ourselves. For example when clients are ready to do deeper work, when trauma keeps presenting itself in re-enacted patterns or when clients decide that they are open and welcoming deep growth and healing. Breathwork is effective in increasing your quality of life. Having a trained facilitator offers the client the opportunity to safely surrender to the breath knowing that their needs and wishes will be met during the process.

Breathwork is also a totally drug-free way of uncovering and releasing repressed trauma from the unconscious mind and the body. IBT is an ideal tool for those who struggle with somatic issues, addictions recovery, respiratory problems, depression and anxiety, grief and loss, PTSD, anger management, relationship issues, weight and body concerns, chronic tension and fatigue, trauma & self-confidence

I offer it as a modality to my clients, but you do not have to be in Psychotherapy to do Integral Breath Therapy with me. It is a stand alone practice which I offer to many who are seeking professional development and personal growth.
