Breath Discovery
two different breath work tools
There is so much to discover about the power of breath! Did you know that this year’s Nobel prize in medicine went to 3 scientists who discovered how the body responds to changes in oxygen levels, one of the most essential processes for life. They discovered how cells sense falling oxygen levels and respond by making new blood cells and blood vessels.
With our Breath Discovery we will experience two different, but in a way also very common, sorts of breathing every month.
1. WIM HOF BREATH WORK
by Nicky van der Weijden
We will go deeper into the Wim Hof Breathing. The Wim Hof Method, is called ‘controlled hyperventilation or power breathing’, to release your inner fire. Deep and rhythmic inhalations and exhalations will be followed by a retention time, where you hold your breath for a certain amount of time: you will be amazed about the effects, and how long you are actually capable of holding your breath! We will focus on the third eye, open up and get in contact with our body again, going into a more spiritual state.
2. FREE DIVE BREATH WORK
by Christophe Leray
While most of us are used to taking more shallow breaths, being able to tap into the potential of your diaphragm, and practice conscious breathing has opened up possibilities for Christophe not only in Freediving, but also beyond.He became well-versed in how the body and mind are intricately connected, powered by just one single breath. As a Freediver, your body undergoes extreme pressures, but with breathing, flexibility, and mindfulness preparations your body can acclimate to being underwater. You can expect variations of breathwork as well as mild stretches to open up the body and mind.
Important to note: this type of breath work class is unfortunately not suitable for pregnant women. People with breathing difficulties and hyperventilation are welcome to join and will be extra monitored.
