SLOW, TRAUMA-INFORMED BREATHWORK

The breathwork your nervous system won’t brace against.

No forced catharsis. No two-hour hyperventilation. Just your body, finally allowed to set something down.

If you’ve been carrying something your mind has already made sense of, but your body hasn’t released — this is the work for that.

Slower. Quieter. Body-led. Held at the pace your body can actually handle.

WHY THIS VERSION

Most breathwork isn’t trauma-informed. Mine is.

A lot of breathwork is built around big peaks. Long sessions of intense, fast breathing designed to override the nervous system and force a release. For some people, that works.

For people carrying trauma, chronic stress, grief, or nervous system sensitivity, it can be too much. The body opens before it feels safe. The system floods. The days afterward can feel harder than the days before.

I work differently. I read your nervous system as we go. We slow down when something stirs. We pause when something needs naming. We don’t push the body anywhere it isn’t ready to go.

The release still happens. It just happens at a pace your body can actually integrate.

WHAT YOUR BODY HOLDS

Your body holds wisdom your mind hasn’t accessed yet.

You’ve done the therapy. You’ve read the books. You understand what happened. And still, something in your body hasn’t gotten the memo.

A jaw, shoulders, or chest that won't let go

Tightness that doesn't track to anything obvious. Shallow breath. The sense that your body is bracing for something that has already passed.

Stuck in a loop talking hasn't moved

You understand the pattern. You can describe it clearly. And still, the same thing keeps happening. Sometimes the nervous system needs a different doorway in.

Disconnected from your own body

You don't always notice hunger, tiredness, pleasure, or where emotion lives in you. Breathwork rebuilds that line of communication.

Trauma, grief, or chronic stress your system is still carrying

The nervous system remembers. It holds what hasn't been discharged, long after the mind has moved on.

WHAT RETURNS

Your body, as an anchor instead of a prison.

  • A breath that reaches the bottom of your lungs again

  • Tension setting down in places it has been parked for years

  • The return of small body signals: hunger, tiredness, pleasure, knowing

  • A sense of being in your body rather than negotiating with it

  • Feeling present instead of constantly bracing for the next thing

This work is not about dramatic breakthroughs. It’s about creating enough safety for the body to slowly stop holding everything alone.

INSIDE THE SESSION

A two-hour walkthrough, no surprises.

When you don’t know what you’re walking into, part of your system is busy bracing instead of receiving. Here’s the shape of a session, so that part of you can rest.


01

We talk first

Fifteen to twenty minutes, clothed and sitting up. You tell me what has been happening. I listen for what your body might already be telling us. We agree on what we’re working with today.


02

We start with grounding breath

Not the intense kind. Slow, regulated breath patterns designed to settle your nervous system before we go anywhere deeper. Without grounding, deeper breathwork can feel destabilising instead of supportive.


03

We move into the journey breath

Only as far as your body wants to go. This is where stored tension, emotion, sensation, and subconscious material can begin to move. You’re lying down, eyes closed if comfortable, with music low. I’m beside you the whole time — watching, guiding, slowing the pace if anything tips toward too much.


04

We integrate

The final part is rest, hydration, and a quiet conversation about what came up. You don’t leave raw. You leave settled.

 WHAT TENDS TO SHIFT 

Your body, as an anchor instead of a prison.

A breath that reaches the bottom of your lungs again

Tension setting down in places it has been parked for years

The return of small body signals: hunger, tiredness, pleasure, knowing

A sense of being in your body rather than negotiating with it

Feeling present instead of constantly bracing for the next thing

Slower. Quieter. Body-led. Held at the pace your body can actually handle.

BEFORE YOU BOOK

The things people ask first.

  • You can come with anything that feels present for you — whether that’s anxiety, overwhelm, relationship challenges, life direction, emotional heaviness, or simply a sense that something feels “off.” You don’t need to have the right words or a clear reason.

    Many clients come when they feel stuck, disconnected, or are seeking clarity and relief. Whatever you’re carrying, there is space for it here — and we meet it together, gently and without pressure.

    Maybe you’re seeking purpose and meaning, or deeper answers to life’s big questions. Wherever you’re at - we can always ask and be open to whatever guidance flows through for you.

  • This work goes beyond talking through problems or setting goals. While we honour the mind, we also work with the body, energy, and intuitive field — allowing access to deeper layers that aren’t always available through thinking alone.

    At the same time, the work is grounded and trauma-aware. You are supported safely and at your own pace, so the shifts that happen aren’t just insightful — they’re felt, integrated, and lasting.

    You are likely to experience ‘ah-ha’ moments and clarity. Where the root of pain can be witnessed beyond the memory and mind. Where you’re spirit will guide what needs to be lovingly tended to for you to meet yourself, and your highest potential.

  • Sessions are up to 2hours.

    The exchange for soul sessions is $250.00

  • That’s completely natural. Most people feel some level of uncertainty before stepping into something new, especially when it involves being seen on a deeper level.

    You don’t need to have it all figured out. If something within you feels drawn to this work, even quietly, that’s enough. We move gently, and you are always in control of your experience.

  • No — your safety is at the centre of everything. I work in a way that honours your nervous system, meaning we go at a pace that feels manageable and supportive for you.

    There is no forcing or pushing. Instead, we create a grounded space where your system can open naturally, allowing shifts to happen in a way that feels steady and safe.

  • Not at all. You don’t need any particular belief system or prior experience. Many clients come simply because they want to feel better, clearer, or more like themselves again.

    The work meets you where you are. Whether you connect more with the intuitive aspect or the grounded support, the intention is always to help you feel more regulated, clear, and connected

  • Most clients leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more anchored in themselves. There’s often a sense of understanding what’s been happening beneath the surface, along with a deeper trust in how to move forward.

    Sometimes the shift is immediate, and sometimes it continues to unfold in the days after — as your system integrates what’s been opened and supported during the session.
