The breath is our greatest tool in life.
It is the first thing we experience as we enter this beautiful world and the last thing as we leave our body.
Our breath stays our true and consistent companion to life .
In the ancient practice of tantra, the breath is honoured as the doorway to the vast states of consciousness that we hold the potential to know and be.
Yet unlike other tools that can underground us, Tantric breathing is a deeply embodied experience.
For we feel and know and allow the expansion of breath from within and the pathways it re-opens in our body rather than in denial of or reaching beyond the body.
Our breath is the bridge between our internal world and our external experience.
It is our connection to life, body and essence. Moving us from living separate from our own self, others and the world and returning us to liberation, wholeness and connection.
The benefits of Tantric Breathwork:
Tantric breathing reconnects to our body and nurtures our awareness of our bodies needs.
It reawakens the senses, so we live a life more in alignment with our bodies than our head.
Tantric breathing regulates the nervous system and reduces stress hormones. Supporting us to have a felt knowing of calm and stillness, as an easily accessible and sustainable experience.
Tantric breath moves and dissolves stored emotions and past traumatic experiences. The times in which our breath was not accessible to us can be met and reset.
It supports the release of unhealthy patterns and behaviours .
As we move deeper into our body and release held tension, suppressed emotions and stagnant body stories, the breath creates space within.
Tantric Breathwork elevates our vibrational energy, we reconnect and live more from our natural presence, aliveness and creativity.
It rebalances and unites our inner masculine and feminine energies, releasing us from internal battles and unhealthy behaviour patterns in relationships with self and others.
Tantric breath moves our sexual energy from sex driven, to an union of love and sex. Our sexual experiences become heart-centered, connected. We feel seen, known and met.
It is an alchemist, transforming and dissolving all that keeps us limited and small.
Tantric breathing restores a playful innocence, transcending us into sexual maturity and liberation.
We come into wholeness of body, mind, essence and an awakened heart experience with oneness.
What do I need to explore Tantric Breathwork?
Tantra is not a religion. I would not say it is even what our western world calls spiritual.
No belief is required. No nudity. No touch.
Tantric breath is an exploration, that simply requires a willingness to experience, a sense of curiosity and playfullness.
A longing for a heart full life.
A desire for freedom.
All you need is your body and your breath.
To immerse yourself into long, slow, connected and deep breath and exhale …
With a sigh that surrenders.
