This is a recording of one of my free weekly guided breathwork sessions on Zoom. The intention of this particular session is to release stress and anxiety by regulating the nervous and reducing the activity of the brain's default mode network.
You can join these sessions live, every Monday at 6pm EST. Here is the link to join: https://zoom.us/j/259363487
These Energetic Elevation sessions are part of the **8 Decisions ** mastermind group; You can learn more about the Decision Experience here: https://thedecisionexperience.com/
Our motto is: -See it (know your vision) -Be it (become your vision) -Together (making it happen with community support)
I suggest performing some gentle mobility exercises or stretches before these sessions to prepare your body.

Energetic Elevation Breathwork Contraindications & Safety Precautions
These techniques are safe and can be beneficial for all individuals. However, forceful mouth breathing, prolonged breath holds & extended intense fast breathwork should be avoided for the following:
➔ Severe diseases or infections that impair your ability to breathe (ie: COPD) ➔ Severe uncontrolled hypertension ➔ Organ failure or late-stage terminal illness ➔ Pregnancy ➔ If you have a pacemaker, epilepsy, irregular heart beat (unless permission from your doctor). ➔ Some conditions (Tinnitus, hernias) may be aggravated by forceful mouth breathing, prolonged breath holds and prolonged, intense, rapid breathing; careful attention to technique is required
We also advise not to do this practice:
•With a full stomach •If you have a flu or fever •When driving a car or operating machinery •While in water
EE Breathwork may result in the following experiences:
•Lightheadedness, dizziness, or a headrush sensation •Tingling sensations and vibrations in your body •Strong emotions and emotional release (ie: crying, laughing, sighing, watery eyes, yawning, body movements) •A sense of expansion, release, or dissolving into pure consciousness or energy. •Tetany: a cramping of your hands / forearms and/or feet / calves
*These are safe and normal, and can be part of your healing experience. Try to relax and allow as you breathe through the experience (if it's coming up, let it out). However, if it's too uncomfortable or intense for you to manage, remember that you are in control and can simply slow down your breathing at any time.
