Conscious Connected Breathwork: Reducing stress and Cultivation Vitality!

In this workshop, with the help of various breathing practices, we open our bodies (different layers), creating more spaciousness, aliveness, and consciousness, free from all constrictions and stress so that blocked, stressful, traumatized, and sleeping energy starts to awaken and flow. That creates a union between Space and Energy to cultivate deep peace and ecstasy.
