QueerCalendarJoin us for a 30-minute breathwork experience followed by a Q&A where we answer the question, “what’s really happening in your body as we breathe?” as well as closing journal reflections. This particular practice is rooted in the sanskrit term, swadyaya, or self-study, so bring your curiosity, but absolutely no experience is necessary. All levels welcome.
The experience will be lying down, so bring a small pillow or blanket if you’ll be more comfortable that way. We will take deep inhales and exhales through the mouth, split up by retentions, or holds. Modifications will be guided to intensify or calm the experience. Leave your expectations at the door, come with an open mind, and expect to deepen your somatic relationship with your body and mind.
Location
In Mission Valley, San Diego. Location given to ticket holders.
