What is Transformational Breath™?
Transformational Breath™ is a cutting edge form of breath work co-developed by Dr Judith Kravitz to empower you to transform your physical, emotional and spiritual life. Using a connected pattern of breath that is safe and easy to learn, gentle body mapping (similar to acupressure), movement and sound, the practice helps clear negative emotions and aims to reconnect you with your innate sense of joy, peace and well being.
Breath work has been at the heart of eastern healing and meditative practices for centuries but, in the past few decades, the health and life-enhancing benefits of the breath have increasingly been acknowledged in the west.
Quite simply, if we stop breathing we stop living. Our breath affects the function of every cell in our bodies, so if we restrict our breath we restrict how we live. The good news is if we learn to breathe fully and openly we allow our lives to fully open.All my clients agree that Transformational Breath™ really is aptly named!
What are the benefits of Transformational Breath™?
Emotional benefits
When we’re stressed or if we experience a traumatic event we often suppress uncomfortable emotions as a way of coping. But suppressed emotions have a habit of resurfacing eventually! Mulling over a problem or reliving a past trauma in your head, for example, might trigger a suppressed negative emotion, and before you know it you feel trapped in a thought-emotion-behaviour cycle that feels like it’ll never end.
So what’s the solution? One of the key benefits of Transformational Breath™ is that it works by bypassing the mind, and instead helps you integrate suppressed or repressed emotional blockages at an energetic level. Clients often experience a very tangible sense of ‘permanent release’ during a session that surprises as much as delights them. Every breath session is different and you can expect over time to experience a whole range of emotions and emotional benefits as limiting beliefs, past traumas, negative thought patterns and behaviours (eg. anger and depression) are permanently integrated. Transformational Breath™ is about being present, looking forward and focusing on what you want more of in your life. So by all means ask for more joy, peace, and happiness from your session!
Physical benefits
Most people only use 25% of their respiratory system, and restricted breathing patterns greatly reduce the amount of energy we have day-to-day even when we are otherwise healthy. Much of our energy comes from the breath, so a connected diaphragmatic breath is paramount to the Transformational Breath™ process. It is relaxing and proven to positively affect the heart, brain, digestive and immune systems.
The physical benefits reported by clients include: increased energy and a sense of peace, stimulated circulation, resolution of addictions, successful weight management, relief from headaches and respiratory disorders.
Spiritual awareness
Transformational Breath™ has no religious affiliation or dogma and none is required for the technique to bring positive results. However, clients often report that they experience a deeper connection with their spiritual or Higher Self during a session, or that it brings new perspectives or insights to light. Many clients also have reported an expansion in their meditation and awareness.
