****Important Safety Guidelines****

This session involves dynamic breathwork that can elevate your heart rate. Please consult your healthcare provider if:

  • You have pre-existing heart conditions, asthma, or severe mental health challenges.

  • You are on strong psychological medications.

  • You are pregnant or unsure about participation.

If you have concerns, reach out to us at info@awakethod.com for clarification or guidance.

The Concept

This session is more than just breathwork, it’s breath architecture, a carefully designed process to create positive stress and release stored tension. Just as a massage therapist applies pressure to release a tight muscle, this breathwork uses deliberate effort to activate your body’s innate ability to reset and restore balance.

  • This practice involves active participation—you will engage with your breath to push through resistance, allowing your nervous system to release old patterns and find new equilibrium.

  • Unlike passive relaxation techniques, this journey requires focus, effort, and trust in the process to unlock its full potential.

The Flow of the Journey

The session mirrors the experience of climbing a mountain, with distinct phases:

1 - Activation Phase (Base Camp):

  • The journey begins with active breathing to challenge your body and quiet your mind.

  • Expect initial resistance, similar to the first few minutes of exercise when your body adjusts. As your natural breathing rhythm emerges, effort transitions into flow.

2 - Release Phase (Peak):

  • At the height of the journey, you may experience a surge of energy or emotions. This phase is a powerful opportunity for deep release—physically, emotionally, and energetically.

3. Restorative Phase (Valley):

  • The session concludes with slower, gentle breathing, guiding you into relaxation and integration. This is where emotional processing, subconscious reprogramming, and profound self-discovery occur.

What to Expect

Physical Responses:

  • Tingling or Tetany: Temporary tightening in hands, fingers, or feet, often resembling “lobster claws.” This is due to changes in your body’s gas exchange and will ease with slower breathing.

  • Lightheadedness or Dizziness: Normal responses to the practice while lying down. These sensations subside naturally.

  • We will be there to guide you if needed.

Mental Resistance:

  • It’s common for your mind to resist with thoughts like “I can’t do this” or “This is too much.” This is simply your analytical mind reacting to the challenge.

  • When this happens, gently refocus on your breath and trust the process.

Emotional Release:

  • Emotions such as sadness, anger, joy, or grief may arise. These are stored energies being released.

  • Allow these feelings to flow through you—breathe into them, visualize them moving, and exhale them out.

  • Physical manifestations like crying, laughing, shaking, or even screaming are normal and welcome.

Know that you are in full control of your journey.

Technique instructions

Your breath is the remote control to your experience. Here are the techniques to regulate your experience:

  1. Gear 1: Two-part active breath (belly-chest, active inhale, passive exhale)

  2. Neutral: Gentle deep breathing in and out of your mouth, focusing on belly and chest expansion.

  3. Brake: Nasal breathing to calm and activate the parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous system.

The key is depth, over speed - deeper, intentional breaths unlock deeper emotional and physical release.

Other techniques:

On the day, we’ll guide you through specialized techniques to enhance the practice:

  • Toning: Using vocal vibration to release stored tension.

  • Tapping: Stimulating specific points on the body to encourage energy flow.

  • Touch: Gentle self-applied pressure to activate energy centers.

  • The Catapult: A dynamic release technique for deeper energetic shifts.

Final Thought

With every breath, you are creating space for freedom, resilience, and profound connection to yourself. This journey is yours, and you are fully in control. Trust the process, lean into the experience, and let it guide you to new levels of insight and release. Let’s climb this mountain together. See you on the day!
