Breathe yourself to better health

Written By Lee MacGregor
 

“All healing of the being is done through the breath. The breath allows us to become aware of the tensions, blockages and resistances that prevent our breath from circulating freely. It is the path of fulfilling the soul in the body. Unblocking the breath means freeing ourselves of the blockages of the soul and opening ourselves to Creative Intelligence.”

- the famous healer and philosopher Philo of Alexandria.

Many ancient traditions explored various aspect of breath and developed practices to use keep the body, mind, and spirit connected and healthy. Dysfunctional breathing was blamed for causing illness and different conditions were linked with specific disturbance in breathing.

These days we have more and more scientific tools to prove that the quality of breathing is linked to general health. The Framingham Study proves association between lung capacity and its function, with longevity and risk of developing coronary heart disease.

If you know me, you would have figured out by now that I am very passionate about breathwork!

Most modalities and schools of breath that we hear about now, have their roots in pranayama and other ancient techniques. I love having the freedom to combining different methods together to achieve desired outcomes.

✨ With launching this website, I am also adding some more breathwork classes to my repertoire.
