Holotropic Breathwork® is an experiential method of self-exploration and healing first developed by Dr. Stanislav and Christina Grof. It is a simple process using the breath and evocative background music to access unconscious material within the psyche, ripe to be encountered, worked with, and integrated.

Holotropic means “moving toward wholeness.” A core principle of this modality is that the breather’s healing intelligence guides the process. Usually structured as a day-long workshop, participants work in pairs. A team of at least two trained facilitators are present in a non-directive role to ensure safety and the deep support of the process, and to attend to everyone’s needs as expressed throughout the day.

What to Expect

Make initial contact with a facilitator to answer any preliminary questions about the workshop and to consider whether a breathwork workshop is a right fit for your needs at this time.

Attend an introductory talk online or in person for an overview of Holotropic Breathwork® and practical information to prepare for the workshop.

Come together with other workshop participants for the opening circle.

Experience being a breather for a three-hour session on the mat and a sitter for your partner’s session.

Engage in integration activities such as mandala drawing and a sharing circle.

It is said that the integration process is almost more important than the breathwork session itself. For this reason, after the event, a follow-up phone call or online integration group is offered to all participants.

We encourage participants to have a willingness to engage the material that emerged during the session and have resources in place that may be supportive of their processes after the workshop.
