Course syllabus
This foundational module introduces the basics of breathwork, including its role in holistic health. You’ll learn about the respiratory system's anatomy and physiology, and how conscious breath regulation can impact physical, mental, and emotional well-being. This module also explores the history of breathwork practices across various cultures, providing you with a deep understanding of its roots and significance. By the end of this module, you will have practical experience with breath awareness exercises and be able to guide your clients in assessing their own breathing patterns.
This module dives into the relationship between breath and the autonomic nervous system. You’ll learn how breathwork can influence the balance between the sympathetic (fight or flight) and parasympathetic (rest and digest) systems, enabling you to help clients manage stress and anxiety more effectively. This module also explores the science of breath regulation and its effects on mental health conditions such as depression and trauma, offering practical tools for working with clients who experience chronic stress or emotional imbalance.
In this module, we explore a range of breathwork techniques from around the world, including diaphragmatic breathing, Pranayama, and other contemporary methods like Holotropic and Transformational Breathwork. You’ll learn how to guide clients through each technique, understanding their specific benefits and when to apply them. You will also gain insights into how different breathing patterns can be used to energize, calm, or focus the mind and body, giving you a broad toolkit to tailor breathwork sessions to meet your clients' unique needs.
This module helps you refine your ability to select the appropriate breathwork technique based on individual client needs. You’ll learn how to assess factors such as physical health, emotional state, and personal preferences when determining the most suitable method. With real-life case studies and role-playing exercises, you will practice adapting breathwork techniques for various conditions and settings, ensuring that each client receives personalized and effective support.
This advanced module focuses on breathwork techniques that address specific health conditions, including anxiety, trauma, chronic pain, and sleep disorders. You’ll learn how to apply breathwork to support healing and transformation, exploring its potential in both one-on-one sessions and group settings. The module covers modifications and adaptations for clients with special conditions, ensuring you can work safely and effectively with a broad spectrum of individuals.
Facilitating breathwork sessions requires more than just technical knowledge—it demands strong facilitation skills and a deep understanding of ethical considerations. This module covers best practices for creating a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment for clients. You’ll explore topics such as client boundaries, informed consent, and cultural sensitivity, equipping you with the tools to foster a space where clients feel empowered and supported throughout their breathwork journey.
Breathwork can be a powerful tool, but it’s essential to approach it with caution, particularly for individuals with specific health concerns or vulnerabilities. In this module, you’ll learn how to adapt techniques for clients with cardiovascular conditions, asthma, or psychological sensitivities. This module emphasizes the importance of safety, helping you confidently manage group sessions and identify when clients may need additional support or referral to other healthcare professionals.
The final module focuses on integrating breathwork into your existing practice, whether you are a coach, therapist, or wellness professional. You’ll learn how to incorporate breathwork seamlessly into other therapeutic modalities, such as yoga, counseling, or bodywork, enhancing the overall effectiveness of your practice. This module also covers practical aspects such as building a breathwork business, setting up sessions, and continuing your education in the field. You’ll leave with a clear plan for implementing breathwork in your professional life and taking your practice to the next level.
