Breathwork, also known as holotropic breathing or meditative breathing, refers to any type of therapy that uses breathing exercises to improve mental, physical, and spiritual health. Breathwork has now developed in many forms, with more or less intensity.

Different techniques and intentions are distinguished for breathing exercises. Some are energizing, others calming.

These techniques lead to an awareness of respiratory automatisms and accompany change. Whether it’s to manage your stress better, to be able to calm down, to explore new spiritual dimensions, or just to relax, the benefits of breathwork are numerous.

Breathwork can also be used to accompany breathing dysfunctions or disorders and to support medical treatments (asthma, sleep apnea, panic attacks, etc.).

How's a session going?

A free preliminary interview is offered on face-to-face or by phone, in order to better understand how the breathwork can accompany you and discover your coach.

Depending on the motivations that have guided you to the breathwork, your coach will offer you exercises tailored to your needs, constraints and abilities.

Your coach will guide you through the sessions (in groups or individuals). Exercises are done while sitting or lying down and can sometimes be accompanied by gentle movements. The duration of each exercise may vary depending on the objective, intensity and abilities of each.

You will then have the tools to develop your personal practice outside of the sessions and incorporate the exercises into your daily routine.

It is possible to set up a personalized program over several sessions or to perform one-off sessions on request.
