Psychedelic Breathwork Workshop

Psychedelic Breathwork Workshop

Welcome! I am happy to invite you to L’Annexe @YAY Yoga Studio in Paris 18ème on Saturday 13th June at 3pm for a psychedelic breathwork workshop.

This is a transformative space to release stress, find clarity, and reconnect with yourself.

Psychedelic breathwork is an ancient technique that takes you into an altered state of consciousness, just by changing how you breathe. In this natural trance, you open space in your body, mind and heart to feel more deeply.

⌾ About me

Hi, I’m Charles. I am French & British, raised between 2 cultures, 2 languages, 2 ways of thinking. As a leader in the corporate and tech startup worlds (Danone, Deezer, APHP, Lehman Brothers and Newmark) for over 15 years, my career has taken me around the world. Today I am based between Paris, NYC and Bali, where I support individuals and teams who are growing fast or transforming.

A little more personal: over 4 years ago I was fired for being drunk at work. Since then I have been working on my addictions (it was not just alcohol!) and building a life I no longer need to escape from. I have explored the shame, fear and rage that kept me from being able to be present in my body. I have been, and still am, on a quest for happiness, through therapy, coaching, meditation, breathwork, tantra, shamanism, talking circles, and much more. These personal experiences deeply shape my approach.

I am certified in breathwork and facilitate individual and group breathwork sessions. I am also a certified ACC coach by the International Coaching Federation, and trained in the Co-Active coaching model, used by companies like Google, IBM and Salesforce. On the side I write & play music, move my body, and make love. And I am still addicted to very good coffee.
