Question 1

What are the risks of doing a breathwork journey?

Accepted Answer

This is a very low risk experience. One risk is you may faint, but you will be lying down and fainting is another way of your body forcing a reset breath.

Question 2

What happens during this transformational experience?

Accepted Answer

Some experience tetany, which can be uncomfortable - if it happens, just slow the breath until it feels better - you will not stay this way forever. Some also experience a tingling around the mouth or in the extremities, which will go away when you return to normal breath or slow the breath.

Question 3

What  happens Continued

Accepted Answer

Also, with this type of breathing, you are brought into a Theta Brainwave state, which makes you very open and able to  access the subconscious mind. This is also called Transient Hypofrontality - a tamping down of the monkey mind.

Question 4

What about the scream?

Accepted Answer

There are 2 somatic releases that come in the middle of the journey in the form of a scream. You can scream into a pillow if you are in a place where others may hear you.  If you feel like you don’t want to scream, you should probably scream twice as loud.

Question 5

What are the contraindications?

Accepted Answer

Cardiovascular problems, abnormally high blood pressure, aneurysms, epilepsy and seizures, anyone taking heavy medication, severe psychiatric symptoms especially psychosis or paranoia, bipolar, osteoporosis, recent surgery, pregnancy, or glaucoma.

Question 6

Contraindications Continued

Accepted Answer

Anyone experiencing an emotional or spiritual crisis or any person with a mental illness who is not in treatment or lacks adequate support should consult with their breath coach.

Question 7

How do I prepare?

Accepted Answer

Come in clean, hydrated, and not hungover. Find a private place where you can lie down. This can make you cold, so have a blanket if you think you need it. 
Wear headphones and an eye mask to make the journey more intimate and personal. This will allow you to go much deeper.
