Join us for a transformative journey you won’t soon forget!
Rob and I are so excited to bring Somatic Breathwork to the DRIFT community! Since this is our first event, we’re capping participation at 9 people.
SOMATIC BREATHWORK IS AN EMBODIMENT EXPERIENCE THAT TAKES YOU OUT OF YOUR THINKING MIND AND INTO YOUR BODY’S ELECTRICAL NETWORK- YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM.
We use conscious breathing techniques, rhythmic music, and verbal cues to guide you through a transformational experience that can feel cathartic, deeply peaceful, and clarifying.
Using your breath to activate your nervous system, you’ll stay anchored in the present moment, bring awareness to stress you’ve been holding onto and emotions you’ve been suppressing, and let them go. That can look like moving, shaking, yelling, crying, laughing, or simply breathing.
You’ll sweep away beliefs or stories in the mind that have been holding you back and reconnect with how you truly want to feel and show up in the world each day.
*Somatic Breathwork is NOT just a way to relax or deal with stress.
By re-connecting the power of your mind with the innate wisdom of your body, Somatic Breathwork is a tool for self-discovery, reconnecting with your authentic self, and regulating your nervous system.

“What surprised me most was how connected I felt to my body again. I carry a lot of tension in my neck, shoulders, and back, and during the breathwork, I could actually feel those areas activate and release. It was such a deep sense of relief.”

“My somatic breathwork session was an intense, positive experience. The session helped me release tension I didn’t realize I was holding and left me feeling calm and relaxed. It was powerful and healing. I would recommend this for anyone looking to let go of stored emotions. Thank you Jen 🙏”
