In this app you’ll find heart-centered professionally guided Breathwork sessions to calm, clear, and energize. The breaths are easy to follow with intuitively chosen music. Each Breathwork Session comes with an artwork that matches the energy signature of the recording to better help you assimilate and integrate. Sessions are created to be highly effective; even a couple minutes will help regulate your nervous system, feel calm and energetic, clear heavy emotions and energy, and process trauma. This app is the perfect accompaniment to your daily routine, and the more consistently you use it, the more effective it becomes. Sessions are intentionally created to achieve certain goals. You can also filter the sessions depending on how much time you have: Short (0 - 10 minutes), Medium (15 - 30 minutes), and Long (30+ minutes). Here’s a sneak peak into the app: Active Sessions Sessions with more active, faster breaths designed to release stress, heavy energy, emotions, trauma, and clear out your body. In these sessions, you will shift your state of being and return to a state of rest. Highly effective to help you clear and balance your nervous system, returning to a natural state of self-regulation. Relaxation Sessions Created to help you completely relax through your natural breath, without any active breathing. Great for a reprieve in the middle of the day or to help you drift off to sleep. Mixed Sessions If you’re looking to gently de-stress but still need a little release, these sessions are for you. Intentionally created with slow, slightly active breaths, this combination will lower your heart rate, regulate your nervous system, and clear your body just enough so you can fully relax. Self-Discovery Many of the sessions are named with a theme. These are perfect if you’re on a journey of self-discovery, self-love and greater connection with yourself. Deepen your connection with yourself, develop your intuition, trust yourself, gain insights, and release any beliefs and stories holding you back. Something for Everyone: There’s something here for everyone. No matter what your need is, through the breath you can shift your state of being and change the way you feel, respond and experience the world. All sessions created with love and intention, designed to ignite and empower the healer within you. YOU are the magic, and you access it through your breath. Still not sure if it’s for you?
