Breath & Body
Our ceremonial containers allow access to deep, integrated healing on a somatic level, bridging body, emotion, mind, and spirit.
The common thread that runs through all these services is Love and heart coherence, which prevails over all fear and suffering.
“When we become aware of our breathing, we take part in a collective prayer… this is the first step into unity.” - Lars Muhl -
Somatic Breathwork
Breathwork is one of the most powerful tools for bringing the body and mind into alignment through the power of spirit (breath). It is a simple skill that can benefit us in nearly every aspect of our lives. One of the key aspects that makes it so powerful is its simplicity and accessibility - it is your breath, and it is always available to you. It is the one thing that we do unconsciously, that we have the power to take conscious control over – in this way, breath is the bridge between the conscious and unconscious mind. Somatic Breathwork is oriented toward bridging the gap between our bodies (soma) and our minds (psyche). Conscious breathing brings us into the present moment, and when performed with depth, rhythm, and intention, it can bring about profound emotional release and mental clarity, and also assist greatly with issues such as anxiety and depression. Breathwork is unique in that it works with and connects all key aspects of well-being – physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.
A Daily Breathwork Practice can be performed within a matter of minutes - it is an incredible tool for quickly regulating the nervous system, grounding oneself in the present moment, and clearing away mental clutter to increase focus and productivity. These short practices can be utilized every morning to align oneself for the day, and also implemented any time throughout the day to reset the system and establish heart-brain coherence.
Somatic Breathwork Journeys are an hour in length, allowing you to go deeper, with the capability of activating an altered state of consciousness. From this state, unprocessed emotions can rise to the surface to be witnessed, felt, and released, allowing for clarity around what might be buried beneath. These are guided experiences with a musical soundtrack that encourages you to surrender into the breath and allow time to melt as you journey inward.
Lomilomi
Ancient Hawaiian Body & Energy Work
Lomilomi is based in the premise that the body, mind, and spirit are three parts of a unified system (trinity), and each of these is a key element in human evolution and healing/remembrance.
For each session, a sacred, ceremonial space is created where the giver(s) and receiver of Lomilomi are synchronized through intention, breath, sound, and touch. The “Ha” (breath) is a critical component of this process – as such, light breathwork/breath awareness weaves into the structure of Lomilomi. The Seeds of Light approach also incorporates sound medicine and coaching/integration during or after the session to facilitate transmutation of what is being processed. Our unique 2:1 container that is created through the masculine and feminine working together results in a powerful energetic balancing of the masculine and feminine poles within the receiver, bringing their internal world into harmony.
The well-known Hawaiian word, Aloha, is rich with many layers of meaning – far more than a simple greeting or farewell. One of the more beautiful meanings of Aloha is “The Breath of God is in our Presence.” In Hawaiian culture, a deep connection and relationship with the breath is paramount to living a life connected with God. Love is the central component of this work – both giver and receiver surrender the thinking mind and inner resistances, allowing ourselves to become vessels for the Aloha Spirit, the Spirit of Love, to move through and perform the work that is required. Intentional breathing is used to enter the “Pō”, which is the empty space or void that we can access through deep states of meditation, beyond our conscious awareness. From this place, we are more receptive to the healing potential of Love.
For a deeper understanding of the art of Lomilomi, you can read “The Wise Secrets of Aloha” written by my teacher, Kahuna Harry Uhane Jim, of Halau Uhana Lomilomi Lapa’au.
