Question 1

What type or style of breathwork will I be guided through?

Accepted Answer

The style of breathwork you'll be guided through is a conscious connected (circular) 3-part breath pattern style most similar to well known transformational or holotropic breathwork styles. There are many similar, but different styles of this particular type of breathwork.

Question 2

Can I participate in this event?

Accepted Answer

You must be in good health to participate in this event. By participating, you are acknowledging that you are well enough to do so. Additionally, you are required to agree to a participation waiver (just like you would going to the gym, yoga, a massage, facial, etc.).

Question 3

Will I get to scream/make loud noises during breathwork?

Accepted Answer

The Breath Nurse cares deeply about everyone's safety and level of comfort. Therefore, screaming or making loud noises during breathwork will only be tolerated when The Breath Nurse allows the space for everyone to do so collectively. Thank you for understanding!

Question 4

Will this event be loud in general?

Accepted Answer

Depending on your level of noise sensitivity, it can be. Music will be played via speaker during breathwork. Also, The Breath Nurse will be offering voice guidance throughout and there will be controlled opportunities for everyone to speak aloud together and potentially scream/make loud noises.

Question 5

Is breathwork safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes, breathwork is very safe for almost everyone to practice. Ultimately, you are in control the whole time, and how deep you go is up to you. That said, individuals with certain serious or recent health issues should not participate. Please ask The Breath Nurse if you are unsure.

Question 6

Will I be photographed/recorded at this event?

Accepted Answer

Potentially and if so, most likely indirectly. Due to market and average consumer demand, snippets of events will occasionally be photographed/recorded for marketing and promotional purposes. When you register for each event, you must consent to this possibility in order to participate.

Question 7

Photography/Videography Questions Continued

Accepted Answer

The Breath Nurse understands that breathwork is transformative and vulnerable self-work, and therefore strives to keep photography and videography to minimum to none in order to maintain the safety and integrity of these events.

Question 8

Photography/Videography Questions Continued

Accepted Answer

If a professional photographer/videographer has been hired for a particular event, this information will be included in the event description. If just The Breath Nurse is in attendance, only photos will possibly be taken (minimum to none) because her number one priority is her presence and you.

Question 9

Will audio or names be shared from events?

Accepted Answer

No. Audio and names from events will never be shared unless The Breath Nurse gets your express permission.

Question 10

Will this breathwork be like the breathwork I've done before?

Accepted Answer

Maybe yes, maybe no. There are many different types and styles of breathwork, both ancient and modern. Additionally, every facilitator is different in terms of organization, space holding, explanation, intention, weaving of other elements, and their own unique energy.

Question 11

Will every event with The Breath Nurse be the same?

Accepted Answer

No. Every event with The Breath Nurse is unique. Although every event may follow a similar format for organization, each event differs in experience based on the intention, collective energy of everyone who is there, and the breathwork itself (including your energy and effort).

Question 12

Why is breathwork so popular all of a sudden?

Accepted Answer

Breathwork is booming because it's amazing! The benefits are essentially endless and can absolutely be transformational and life changing. There is more and more research and information coming out every year supporting breathwork and its many benefits to our health and overall well-being.
