Hello and welcome to this dynamic breathwork journey.
My name is Natasha
Thompson of The Well Canada and today I will be your guide through a short but
very powerful practice in boosting energy,
Enhancing mental clarity,
Expanding creativity,
And inviting aliveness back into the parts of
yourself that may have been feeling stagnant for some time.
To begin,
Please come to find any comfortable seated position where your
back body can be long and straight and upright.
For dynamic breathwork
experiences,
It's always recommended to sit close to the floor and to use a wall
or strong support to rest your back body against in the off chance that you feel
lightheaded or dizzy as we move through this practice.
Together we will move through four rounds of dynamic breathing.
In through
the nose and out through the mouth.
Follow the guidance of my voice as I set
the pace.
The key to deepening this practice,
The way that you will get the
most out of it,
Is by making your inhales intentional.
What this means is
that as you take your inhalation,
As you breathe in,
You will access the deepest
parts of your lung tissue.
Down into the abdomen,
Into the pelvic bowl you will
send your breath.
Try this now,
Taking a couple of really deep breaths in through
the nose,
Accessing all the way into the belly,
Even exaggerating or inflating the
stomach as you breathe in.
And then as you breathe out through the mouth,
Just
send all of the air out at once.
When you're ready,
Close your eyes down and we
will begin this practice in three,
Two,

Breathe in through the nose,

They are all here for you.
Stay here for as long as you feel.
Letting the music carry you.
Letting the body be your guide.
