Our Approach
The human experience is multifaceted; each day, we face moments that challenge us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Through it all, our breath is there.
We breathe approximately 23,000 times per day. The way we breathe affects the most fundamental aspects of our lives. Our respiration rate and depth influence all other systems and functions in our body, including heart rate, blood chemistry, neural activity, and digestion. In our joys and sorrows, whether we are active or resting, our breath is always supporting us.
But how often do we bring awareness to our breathing? Can a better understanding of our breath mechanics positively impact our lives?
The Learning System
Breath Awareness and Resilience (BAR) is our pioneering learning system that integrates various branches of knowledge into an embodied science of breathwork. The BAR Learning System addresses the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of the human experience.
Our offerings are organized across these four dimensions and four levels of depth.
The Technique
Facilitated Breath Repatterning (FBR) is a transformative bodywork technique that helps individuals reconnect with their most fundamental life force: breath. Unlike other breathwork approaches that may rely solely on deep breathing or forceful techniques, FBR stands apart through its comprehensive, supportive methodology that prioritizes safety, effectiveness, and holistic healing.
Imagine having a personal guide who can help you unlock the hidden tensions stored in your body, revealing how your breathing patterns reflect and influence your physical and emotional well-being. Our practitioners are not just breathwork facilitators – they are skilled experts trained to provide a uniquely supportive experience that goes beyond simple breathing exercises.
Through a gentle combination of visual assessment, precise touch, and mindful guidance, they help you discover how your breathing might be holding you back from optimal health and emotional freedom.
FBR creates a safe, nurturing environment that supports your body's natural healing capabilities and our approach offers a path to deeper self-understanding with unparalleled care and precision.
During a session, you'll experience a holistic approach that combines:
- Careful observation of your body's breathing mechanics
- Gentle, targeted touch to release physical restrictions
- Verbal guidance to bring awareness to unconscious breathing patterns
- Techniques that help you reconnect with your body's natural rhythms
The core strength of FBR lies in its ability to bridge the conscious and subconscious, with the critical difference being our comprehensive bodywork support. Our practitioners work with you to explore how breath can be a gateway to releasing long-held stress, trauma, and emotional blockages – all within a framework of complete safety and individualized care.
Sessions can be individual or in group settings, providing a supportive environment for personal exploration and healing. Rather than forcing the breath or overwhelming the nervous system, FBR offers a gentle yet very powerful approach to understanding and transforming your relationship with breath, making it the preferred technique for those seeking true, supported healing.
Whether you're struggling with overwhelm, wanting to become more effective at work, or simply wanting to improve your overall well-being, Facilitated Breath Repatterning offers a profound and uniquely supportive approach to understanding and transforming your relationship with breath.
