Somatic Breathwork Journey at DRIFT Surf Shop in Wakefield, Rhode Island

  • DRIFT Surf Shop 231 Robinson Street Wakefield, Rhode Island 02879 (map)

Come breathe new life into your body and soul in this Somatic Breathwork Journey at DRIFT Surf Shop! If you’ve had a lot on your plate lately and find yourself getting stressed out by even the smallest things, this breathwork session will help you shift out of constant ‘survival mode’ and come back to calm and clarity. It might end up being the most powerful hour of your life.

Space at this event is limited in order to ensure an environment that feels safe, comfortable, and impactful for everyone. These sessions tend to sell out so be sure to grab your spot early:

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 (or even falling asleep!).

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.

I loved the breathwork and I feel like I’m still integrating all of what it offered. I’m calmer, clearer, opening to love and ever so grateful.

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 🙏

I wanted to express deep gratitude for yesterday’s experience. I didn’t know what to expect physically, emotionally, mentally but I loved your way of guiding us through the practice. You helped me really tap into my why with self compassion which I’ve struggled with throughout my life as well. I felt a significant release and more acceptance. It was a very moving experience. Appreciate you providing such a safe and accepting space and practice ❤️
