Join licensed acupuncturist Bridgette Shea for for this in-depth look at what constitutes an optimal, healthy breath.
Most of us suffer from abnormal breathing patterns that underlie the conscious breathing we usually focus on in yoga class. Second only to meditation, breathing well naturally, without trying, is the best thing we can do to preserve and cultivate good mental, emotional, and physical health.
In this 90 minute workshop, you will discover personal breathing imbalances so you can work toward transforming them into a more healthful breathing pattern. Bridgette will discuss what a natural, healthy breath is from the traditional standpoints of yoga, Ayurveda, western science, and Chinese medicine at both the subtle energy and physical body levels. Using this information and establishing a few minutes of regular breath awareness can create profound shifts in bodily comfort, mental, emotional, and spiritual well being. You are guaranteed to learn something powerful about your very own breath!
