Conscious Connected Breathing

CCB is a dynamic, circular breath, without pauses, and is generally practiced through the mouth. Breathing efficiently and intentionally can unlock a powerful mind-body reset; see ‘The Role of Conscious Connected Breathing’.

The Mind Body Connection

Emotional imprints from our experiences since birth are stored in the body, and can show up as muscular tension, dysfunctional breathing, chronic pain, and persistent stress; this puts the body in a constant fight, flight, and for some, a freeze response. This is a risk for overall health and affects how resilient the nervous system is, inhibits the immune system and disrupts the endocrine system. Hello cortisol.

The Role of Conscious Connected Breathing

• Build a resilient nervous system which equates to better stress management, a calmer mind, and less physical tension
• Boost energy, improve focus, clarity and work performance
• Offers a gateway to accessing deep wisdom, intuition and creativity
• Releasing repressed emotions stored deep in the subconscious

Due to the change in carbon dioxide, the body can experience various physiological changes that lead to altered states of consciousness and the ability to access the subconscious mind where we hold repressed emotions, buried memories, and deep-seated beliefs; this is the gateway to emotional release. The nervous system is truly awakened through this practice and shifts between sympathetic activation and parasympathetic which has huge benefits for emotional and nervous system resilience, and heart health, in part due to the positive effect on HRV (Heart Rate Variability) and vagal tone.

There are contraindications with CCB, therefore a signed waiver will be required before embarking on this practice, and any conditions highlighted will require further discussion.
