The Good Magpie presents THURSDAY CLASS: Breathwork with Liz from Space Breathwork

Join our certified breathwork facilitator Elizabeth Harris for a four week series designed to build safety in your body so you can feel comfortable being with yourself.

What is Breathwork?

Breathwork is an active meditation. We use the breath to connect more deeply with our physical, mental and spiritual bodies. During a breathwork journey we use the breath to move stuck energy so we can heal and transform.

Breathwork is a form of bottom-up healing – healing from the body rather than the mind. It is a holistic practice using conscious and connected breath to eliminate emotional and physical blocks, stimulate energy and improve your self-connection while also bringing
a sense of presence, relaxation and mental clarity.

Why Breathe?

Use your breath to process, integrate, connect, heal and release – find what it is you need. Breathwork allows us to work with the nervous system. Through consciously altering our breath we can activate and regulate the nervous system which allows us to build
tolerance for stress in our life.

Benefits of Breathwork:

There are many benefits to a regular breathwork practice, some of them include:

Reduce stress and help with the emotions associated with anxiety and depression

Improve digestion, sleep, and lung capacity

Reduce chronic pain

Promote creativity, inspiration and potentially insights or “downloads”

Reconnect with your intuition

Prolong focus and concentration

Increase energy levels and reduce fatigue

Awareness of emotions

Nervous system regulation

Breathwork also provides us with a safe space to practice what we need in life – whether that is taking up space, using our voice, or listening to and responding to the needs and cues of your body. Breathwork allows us to integrate and explore
without judgement.

You are always in control. Let your body lead the way, there’s no knowing exactly what will arise in a breathwork session, but you can be guaranteed that it will be whatever serves you best in this moment.
