For the company

Deep breathing is a scientifically proven method that improves brain health and boosts cognitive performance. My clients have been business leaders and politicians who serve millions of people and are responsible for the well-being of communities. After the breathing exercises, they are able to cope with their work tasks more easily and their concentration has improved. Research has shown that people whose work involves interacting with other people are more successful when their nervous system is balanced.

Book a retreat for your team to create harmony and a sense of emotional closeness within the group. People who go through deep inner processes together, and thereby reach a state of pleasant peace, are more thrifty and compassionate towards themselves and their colleagues. Sales and customer communication will also improve, as both are linked to emotional transference.

Do you want your team to work in harmony towards a common goal and be able to leave personal worries behind?

Elements of a journey

Breathing

Deep and connected breathing activates the sympathetic nervous system, which is also active in situations of heightened stress and danger. By keeping breathing steady and uninterrupted, we can notice how the body is currently functioning. When you start breathing, it is normal for your mouth to dry out and your thinking becomes more active.

Because the process is designed to make changes in subconscious behaviour, our brain initially interprets the change as a threat. Keeping the focus on a steady rhythm and conscious relaxation triggers the body's automatic stress release function.

As a result, you may experience tremors, tears, different emotions, hot and cold flashes and buzzing. After the release, the nervous system switches to the parasympathetic system, which is responsible for the body's recovery and healing.

Movement

Our brain receives signals about how we feel about much of the physical body. Behavioural and movement patterns result in physical characteristics that reinforce thought patterns.

For example, if we are used to taking on more responsibilities than we can handle, it is natural to feel guilty about unfulfilled promises.

When the sympathetic nervous system is activated, the accumulated tension in the shoulder girdle is signalled by pain, stiffness or severe tightness. Connective tissue builds up, blood flow to the brain is impaired and cognitive abilities suffer.

By moving slowly and deliberately, it is possible to activate the body's own stress release function. It is only natural that in the process, memories of situations that have caused tension will emerge. Shivering of the joints helps to restore a light and relaxed state.

Expression

One of the main causes of trauma is thought to be scar tissue in the muscles that reacted to the stressful situation, caused by unexpressed feelings. For example, if you were forbidden to express yourself verbally as a child, your jaw muscles will become stiff and you may develop teething problems. Different people do behave differently and a personalised approach is needed to change destructive behaviour.
