What to Expect in a Breathwork Session: A Journey of Release and Connection

If you’re stepping into a breathwork session with Elise, prepare for a journey of self-connection, deep release, and transformation. Breathwork offers a powerful way to address stress, facilitate emotional healing, and enhance self-awareness through intentional breathing and compassionate guidance. Here’s what you can anticipate in one of these transformative sessions with Elise.

1. A Warm and Welcoming Start

Each session begins with a welcoming introduction. Elise invites everyone to settle in, creating a safe space to release and connect. A gentle “vibe check” encourages participants to share how they’re feeling, setting the tone for a session grounded in openness and support. This moment is essential for aligning with your intentions for the session and preparing for the powerful work of breathwork.

2. Explaining the Breathwork Process

Breathwork is about much more than breathing techniques; it’s a practice that opens up the possibility for deep release and healing. Elise uses specific breath patterns that help unlock and move stagnant emotions, fostering a connection to your body’s innate wisdom. Before diving into the experience, she will demonstrate the breath pattern and invite you to practice alongside her, allowing you to feel comfortable and prepared for the journey ahead.

3. Physical and Emotional Sensations to Expect

As you begin the breathwork practice, you may experience a variety of sensations, both physical and emotional. Here’s what you might notice:

• Physical Sensations: Tingling in your hands and feet, temperature shifts, or even an urge to move can arise. It’s common to experience something called tetany—a temporary tightening in the hands or mouth—that typically eases as you continue to breathe. Other physical sensations might include yawning, shaking, or a surge of energy through the body, all signs that stored tension is beginning to release.
• Emotional Reactions: Emotions that have been stored or pushed down often rise to the surface during breathwork. Feelings of happiness, sadness, laughter, and even anger are all welcome here. Each emotion is an invitation to observe and embrace what arises without judgment, allowing you to witness and release feelings that no longer serve you.

4. The Journey into Breathwork

Elise will guide you through each phase of the breathwork journey with care. This process is both structured and flexible, designed to meet you where you are. As you move through the practice, Elise will offer reminders to stay with your breath and be present with what unfolds. This journey is not about forcing yourself through discomfort but about witnessing, feeling, and allowing each moment to unfold with compassion and presence.

5. Reflection and Integration

At the end of the breathwork session, Elise will invite you to reflect on your experience, either through journaling or sharing within the group. This reflection time is a beautiful way to capture the insights and releases that took place, helping you bridge the benefits of breathwork into your daily life. Reflecting and integrating the session supports a deeper connection to your own healing process.

6. Self-Care and Closing

To close the session, Elise will provide personalized self-care recommendations to support your ongoing healing. These might include stretching, hydrating, or spending a few quiet moments of self-compassion. Post-session care is an essential part of the breathwork process, allowing you to feel grounded and supported as you transition back into your day-to-day routine.

Breathwork with Elise offers a powerful path to reconnect with yourself, release what no longer serves you, and find peace within.
