This is about learning how to work with your body again. Each session will include: Guided healing pranayama practices Education on how specific breath patterns influence physiology, energy, and awareness Space to notice, integrate, and reflect on your lived experience This is not about forcing, pushing limits, or performance-based breathwork.
