Intake Form

If this is your first session, please completely fill out the intake form here: https://www.respirit.ca/intake at least 48 hours before our session. This information is kept completely confidential and will help me to best assist you through a safe, productive, and expansive breath journey. The password for the intake form is "breath4life".

Facilitation Techniques

The breathwork portion of the journey will be done lying down. You will be invited to breathe in a relaxed, circular and continuous pattern, mouth open, without pause between in-breath and out-breath. We will begin slowly and gradually to build intensity, then gracefully slow back down towards normal breathing. With your permission, I will use hands-on techniques and verbal cues to facilitate deeper breathing and guide your attention towards releasing tension and physical armouring that might be impeding the breath pattern.

Possible Experiences

Breathwork can create conditions that support emotional processing and the gradual release of stored tension or trauma. Participants often report increased emotional awareness, improved stress resilience, and a greater sense of inner balance following guided sessions. In addition to its physiological and psychological effects, some individuals experience profound or transcendent experiences during breathwork. These may contribute to an enhanced sense of meaning, self-connection, and integration of previously disconnected aspects of experience.
