Breath Therapy and Conscious Connected Breathing.

Breathing as a metaphor for all of life...
Think of a full inhalation and exhalation as giving and receiving.
Think of a deep in-breath as your willingness to experience life fully.
Think of a full out-breath as your willingness to
express yourself completely.
Our feelings are blocked on the in-breath and the out-breath.
Conscious Connected Breathing
is a technique that gives you access to your patterns
of suppression at the physical level.
"BREATH is the foundation of life, and the VOICE is the first expression of one's thoughts, emotions and desires into form.
