Powerful Breathwork To Energize
This is an intense, activating breathwork session designed to charge your body, clear stagnant energy, and awaken your inner power. Throughout 5 powerful rounds, you’ll move through four progressive “gears” of breathing — each one becoming more dynamic and intense, building energy step by step. Every round ends with a deep breath hold, combined with a pelvic floor lift and abdominal squeeze, creating an amplified flow of life force throughout your system. This practice is perfect when you need to boost your energy, break through mental or emotional stagnation, and activate your inner fire. Warning: This is a strong, activating breathwork practice — not recommended during pregnancy or for those with serious cardiovascular conditions. Always listen to your body. Prepare to sweat, tingle, and feel your energy rise like never before.

A warm welcome to this breathwork session.
This one is an energizing one.
I call it power.
And we're going to do a couple of rounds of a few different breaths.
Increasing in intensity and depth and speed,
Followed by a breath hold.
So the different gears that we will breathe in goes as follows.
The first gear is a deep and slow double inhale,
Sigh of relief.
We breathe into the belly,
Chest,
In through the nose and then relax out through the mouth.
Very slow and gentle.
This is basically the recovery phase.
Very unforced breath,
Followed by gear number two,
Which is slightly faster than normal.
So we go with the same breath,
Just increasing the speed.
And then going into gear number three,
Which can be likened to the breath that you would use when you're jogging.
So in through the nose,
Out through the mouth.
Something like that.
Find your own speed that suits you.
And then we have the last gear,
The sprinting gear.
This is a really activating breath that we will use.
You can choose in and out through the nose,
In through the nose,
Out through the mouth,
Or in through mouth,
Out through mouth.
But it's basically the breath you would use if you would sprint as fast as you could.
That's one way of doing it.
So we will use all of these four different gears in each round.
We will do five rounds and it will become more and more intense as we go in this breath journey.
Each gear is for one minute.
And then after the fourth gear,
We will go into a breath hold for one minute.
We take a deep breath in and we hold with filled lungs as we're also squeezing the pelvic floor.
Lifting it gently and squeezing the belly.
That means we're pulling the navel towards the spine and really trying to create that vacuum down there.
Below the diaphragm,
The lowest part of the torso.
So I will guide you through every single step.
You will get into it more and more as we go.
But for now,
You can just lie down on your back or you can sit up also,
Whatever you prefer.
Just beware if you're sitting up that if you would lose your balance a little bit while breathing,
Just go short that you don't have anything around you that might harm you.
Just make it really comfortable.
And if you're sitting up,
I advise you to also being able to sit with a straight spine.
Relaxed shoulders,
But straight spine.
Amazing.
So if you've never tried breathwork before,
This might not be the best place to start.
I recommend this session for the ones who have practiced breathwork in some shape or form before,
As it can be quite intense.
Of course,
It's all up to you.
It's your responsibility.
I recommend you to just listen into your body,
Your experience at all times.
And trust your own navigation.
And relax.
Don't try to force it too much,
Even though we're going a little bit more intense in this one.
See if you can find that balance between relaxation and effort.
Finding that sweet spot.
That's usually where the magic happens.
All right,
So now just relax.
Relax.
Place your attention on your physical body.
How is it speaking to you right now in this moment?
What's alive in your experience as a human being right now?
Notice your breath.
If the breath would be a mirror of your inner state,
What would it tell you right now?
Our breath usually conveys a lot.
We just gotta listen and notice,
Become aware of.
So now gently begin to breathe in through the nose into the belly.
Fill up the chest as well.
And relax with a sigh of relief.
Very calm,
Slow breath here.
But we're beginning to activate.
Breathing more than we're used to.
Just inviting an expansion in.
Belly.
Chest.
Relaxing the breath out.
Taking the last couple of breaths in this manner.
As we're heading into gear number two,
Which means we increase the speed a little bit.
Increasing the speed.
While breathing in the same manner,
Double inhale and sigh of relief.
Just increase the tempo.
Perhaps increasing the depth as well.
See if you can relax all the small muscles in your face as you breathe.
Don't try to force anything here.
Allow the flow to just be invited fully.
Taking the last few breaths.
As we transition now into third gear,
We increase the speed even more.
In through the nose.
Relax it out through the mouth.
If you would be jogging,
This is the speed we're looking for.
In through the nose in one coherent breath.
This first round is a way of also getting into it.
Give yourself the space and the allowance to try this out for you.
In nose,
Out mouth.
Excellent work.
We're transitioning into the last gear,
Which is full on.
In nose or mouth and out through the mouth.
Really give it all you've got here.
Find your own perfect rhythm,
Speed.
See if you can go all the way.
Really energizing the body,
Inviting a lot of prana,
A lot of oxygen.
Keep going,
We have another 20 seconds to go.
You're almost there now,
Just keep going.
Beautiful.
You can take a deep breath in.
Relax everything out.
Exhale,
Exhale,
Exhale.
Then take a deep breath in again and hold as you reach the top.
You can lift your pelvic floor and squeeze your belly in towards the spine.
Really creating that vacuum down there.
Just hold your breath here,
We're going for one minute.
Keep lifting that pelvic floor,
Squeezing your navel towards your spine.
If you want,
You can let go of the pelvic floor squeeze.
Just keep holding your breath for another 10-15 seconds here.
We're at one minute,
So we relax the breath out.
Great work,
That was round number one.
We are going straight into round two.
We begin once again with that deep double inhale.
Exhale,
Sigh relief in through your nose into the belly.
Followed by the chest.
Breathing out through the mouth with a sigh relief.
This is the recovery gear,
We land a little bit after that round.
Recharge,
We land and we just ground,
Find the foundation.
Deep and slow,
Double inhale,
Sigh relief.
As we now shift into gear two,
Staying with the same breath,
We just increase the speed.
We're breathing slightly faster than normal in this gear.
Perhaps three seconds in,
Three seconds out,
Something like that.
You're doing great,
Just keep on breathing.
As we're shifting into third gear,
Which means we increase the speed even more.
We let go of that double inhale,
We just breathe in and breathe out.
One,
Two seconds in,
One,
Two seconds out.
In through your nose,
Out through your mouth.
As if you were jogging,
That kind of rhythm tempo,
If you can relate to that.
If not,
Just find your own perfect rhythm here.
You're doing amazing.
Keep on going for another 15.
You're almost there.
We're shifting into fourth gear now,
Which means we're going all in.
In through the nose or mouth,
Exhale through the mouth as fast as you can.
Just give it all you got,
Wherever that is right now.
Don't force it,
Be playful.
Become one with the breath.
Your entire movement.
Great job,
Continue just like that.
20 seconds to go.
You're probably feeling a lot of energy building up right now in your system.
It's just perfect.
Just a few more seconds.
As we now exhale everything out.
Take a deep breath in and hold at the top.
Holding the breath while lifting your pelvic floor.
Also squeezing that point just around the navel.
Inwards,
Creating that vacuum.
Once again,
We're going for one minute here.
This breath hold.
Almost there,
Just keep going.
Keep holding the breath.
If you can let go of the pelvic floor,
Lift.
As we now let the breath out again.
Great job,
That was round two.
Really starting to get into it now.
As we're heading into first gear again.
Breathing in through the nose,
Into the belly.
Chest.
And letting go with a sigh of relief.
Come back to the zero point,
Landing a little bit.
Go sure you're still relaxed in your face,
Shoulders.
Let go of any unnecessary tensing.
As we're transitioning into gear two,
We're increasing the speed.
Creating momentum again.
For this third round.
In through the nose,
Belly,
Chest,
Letting go.
Two,
Three seconds in,
Two,
Three seconds out.
Beautiful work so far.
Allow the breath to take over more and more.
As we're shifting into third gear,
We're increasing the speed.
Letting go of the double inhale,
Just breathing in once.
In through your nose and out through the mouth.
One,
Two seconds in.
One,
Two seconds out.
You're doing great,
Just continue to breathe.
Surrender to the breath.
A few more seconds here in this third gear.
Before we're gearing up to the last phase.
As we now transition to fourth gear,
We go all in for one minute.
In,
Out,
In,
Out,
In,
Out.
Find your perfect steady rhythm,
Stick to that.
You can choose in through nose,
In through mouth.
It's really charging up here for the breath hold.
Great job,
We're halfway there.
Ten more seconds,
You can do this.
Go all the way,
Don't force it.
As we now exhale all the way out,
Really big exhalation.
Followed by a big inhale as we hold at the top.
Holding the breath with filled lungs,
Lifting the pelvic floor very gently.
Pulling the navel towards the spine,
Creating that vacuum once again.
That pressure point.
Packing the energy in our lungs,
Just above the diaphragm.
Going again for one minute here.
Great job,
We're almost there now.
Just keep on holding.
A few more seconds,
You can do it.
Let go of the squeeze and exhale.
Great job.
We're heading into the fourth round.
Starting with the first gear,
Gentle,
Slow and deep.
Double inhale,
Belly,
Chest.
Letting go with a sigh of relief out through the mouth.
Perhaps making a sound on the exhalation if that feels good.
Beautiful.
We're moving into the second gear,
We increase the speed.
About three seconds in,
Three seconds out at this point.
In through the nose,
Out through the mouth,
Keeping a steady rhythm.
Gently creating momentum.
In this fourth round,
Building it up slowly.
Beautiful work.
Just continue.
You're doing great.
Third gear,
We're increasing the speed as if we were jogging.
Perhaps two seconds in,
Two seconds out.
Still in through the nose,
Out through the mouth.
Letting go of that double inhale,
Rather just doing it in one breath.
Finding a way to expand on the inhale.
Really inviting that prana,
That chi,
That life force.
Ten more seconds here.
You're doing great.
We're shifting into the fourth gear,
The most powerful one.
Go all in,
Whatever that means for you right now.
One minute of intense breathing in and out.
Finding that sweet spot without too much effort,
Too much force.
But still putting in work.
Putting in the energy required to build up more energy.
Amazing.
30 more seconds.
Beautiful.
Keep on breathing.
You can go all the way here.
Well done.
We exhale all the way on your next exhale.
Take a deep,
Deep breath in after that.
Hold your breath with filled lungs.
Lift the pelvic floor.
Squeeze your navel towards your spine.
Lifting the diaphragm just gently.
Creating that pressure point.
We're expanding our capacity to hold the energy right now.
Ten more seconds.
Let go of the lift and the squeeze and exhale.
Great job.
We enter the first gear for the last round,
The fifth round.
Double inhale,
Sigh of relief.
Slow and gentle.
Keeping it deep.
This is the recovery gear.
We've made it all the way to this fifth round.
Let's make this a beautiful,
Beautiful round.
Tapping into our own innate power and potential.
As we're heading into the second gear.
Increasing the speed.
Creating that wave starting at the belly,
Chest,
Letting go.
Great job.
Almost at the third gear now.
Now we transition into the third gear.
Breathing faster.
Creating one breath on the inhale.
Two,
Three seconds.
More like two seconds.
In and out.
You're doing great.
We're almost there.
Just keep on breathing.
As we're shifting into the last gear,
The most intense one.
Just give it all you've got.
Wherever you are right now.
Inviting that fire.
That life force that wants to flow more freely through you.
Almost there now.
We can go all the way.
Twenty more seconds.
Ten.
Beautiful work.
We exhale.
Exhale all the way out.
Then we're taking a big breath in.
And we hold as we reach the top with filled lungs.
That's where we hold.
And we gently lift the pelvic floor and squeeze the belly towards the spine.
Once again.
Aiming for one minute.
We're almost there now,
My friend.
And you can let go of the squeeze and the lift and relax the breath out.
Great job.
You've made it to the landing phase.
You can let the body breathe exactly how it wants to.
While you just receive.
Relax.
Until I guide you back in a few moments.
Enjoy.
Welcome back.
To the physical realm.
Before you open your eyes.
You can place your awareness around your heart space.
Just connect with your heart for a moment.
Feel how your heart just emanates love,
Gratitude,
Joy.
Creating a field around you.
You are that field.
And through the breath.
It's expanded.
It's reached.
It's power.
It's frequency.
Remember that you have in each given moment.
The capacity.
To direct this energy that flows in and through you.
You always have a choice.
It's up to you to create the most beautiful life.
That you desire.
If you start from within.
And let the external world just mirror your inner state.
You don't search for the light.
You are the light.
Just connect with your physical body at this point.
Feel your feet.
Your hands.
As they gently begin to move.
And allow that movement to spread to larger parts of your body.
Move in the way that your body wants to.
Perhaps you want to stretch.
Lie on the side for a bit.
Perhaps you just want to stay.
Exactly where you are.
Thank you for joining me in this session.
It was a privilege to guide you.
See you in the next one.
