What to Expect in a Private Breathwork Session

A typical session is composed of four segments, which are briefly described below:

Customization:  Each of your sessions is customized for your particular needs. If you are new to breathwork, this customization is based on a confidential questionnaire that you will complete upon arrival at the breathworks studio, supplemented by a brief discussion with your facilitator. If you are already in our program, the customization is based upon your evolving needs and interests as they have developed during earlier sessions.

Understanding : For your initial session, your breathwork facilitator will provide a brief overview of the ancient history of breathwork therapy, and a description of the unique characteristics of the Barratt Breathworks model. You will then be invited into one of the therapy studios, and asked to lie down on a massage table, fully clothed in a supine position.

Breathing and Mindfulness : Your breathwork facilitator will guide you through a meditative process designed to bring you into a state of relaxation. Then, assisted by your facilitator, you will engage in breathing and mindfulness practices that will address your particular needs, helping you balance your emotions and facilitating healing and self-development

Integration:  Following the dedicated breathing and mindfulness segment, you will proceed to the final element of your session, the “integration period.” This part of the session is very important, because it gives your body and mind the opportunity to adjust to the biological and energetic changes that have occurred as a result of the breathing and mindfulness segment. You can plan on your session lasting approximately one hour and fifteen minutes.
