Hello everyone and welcome to Shaman's Breath,

A shamanic drumming dynamic breathwork experience.

In this breathwork practice we are going to do dynamic breathwork to a beautiful shamanic soundscape,

Including shamanic drumming,

Birds,

Rattles,

And flutes.

The shamanic drum traditionally is designed to bring someone into a deep trance state,

And that is the intention here in this dynamic breathwork flow.

If you've done dynamic breathwork with me before,

Then you know we're going to do 40 controlled hyperventilated breaths.

And after the 40th breath,

We'll take a deep breath in and sigh it out.

Once we sigh out the breath,

We will hold the breath for anywhere between 45 seconds to a minute and a half.

After that,

We will take a deep breath in through the nose,

Filling up the lungs all the way.

Then we'll take a little bit more breath in,

Sipping in the breath through the mouth,

Holding the breath for a minute,

And then eventually we'll alm the breath out together.

We will do three rounds of this dynamic breathwork to the shamanic drumming music today.

Without further ado,

Go ahead and get into a nice comfortable space that is very safe and conducive to a deep breathwork experience.

So if you're sitting up,

Make sure everything around you is nice and comfortable and soft in case you need to lie down.

And if you're lying down,

I invite you to lie down on a flat surface so you can really move and deepen your breath as you inhale and exhale.

All right,

Without further ado,

I'm going to guide you through the entire process and we're going to begin with two foundational breaths.

Breathing in through the nose,

Deep into the belly,

Chest,

And head,

Holding it at the top,

Opening the mouth,

And sighing it out.

Again,

Taking a deep breath in through the nose,

Filling up the belly,

Chest,

And head,

Holding at the top,

Opening the mouth,

And sighing it out.

Wonderful variation on this amazing practice. I am so grateful that I found Ben Holt and his teaching.

You're the best breathwork facilitators out there!

I loved that, thank you. I stayed in that energy for ages afterwards 🙏

Beautiful, thank you so much. Will return to this one 🙏🏾

I got lightheaded. I love the drumming and the flute. This for me to be completely into the moment and quieted my mind. 🙏

My husband and I absolutely adore this track. It’s in perfect resonance with where we are at in our journeys. Thanks for all of your phenomenal content 🙏 We loved the music on this one, and the extra meditation time was so sweet. Namaste

Thank you Ben. Feeling grounded, contained and expansive.

Oof this is one powerful potent breath work practice. I feel like I'm soaring above the clouds. Thanks Ben 🙏🙌

Amazing combination of breath work and music, thank you again for all the great work that you do Ben, namaste.

Love the guided breath. Much easier than trying it with out guidance. Thank you! 🙏🏻

Thus is an incredible breathwork meditation. I'm just beginning so it's challenging, but I notice how better I become at it with daily practice. This is energetic and puts me in a calm state of being.

Wonderful guidance, my body is tingling…nice sensation!

The shamanic music made the breath holds so much easier. Would love more of such content, thank you! 🫶

Excellent! One of the best guided shamanic breathwork meditations I’ve done, thank you for your work!
