An Intro To Conscious Connected Breathing by Béatrice Garoche
Recorded at: WOW Talks - Health & Wellbeing. London Thursday, 7th February 2013, at The Hub Westminster.



20 connected breaths by Joe Jennings
A straight-forward pranayama exercise that we teach in Rebirthing Breathwork. It is a simple yet powerful tool for re-centring ourselves, relaxing and energising and gives us an idea of the power of the breath, though it pales in comparison to a full breathwork session.

Choosing Life - a breathing journey by Gabriel Flain www.unevisual.com. Published on 26 Aug 2013. Sponsored by the International Breathwork Foundation (IBF)

This short film explores the journey of breathing consciously, through the eyes of those who have been practicing breathwork for varying lengths of time. Breathwork is a little known practice, which has been used for millennia to transform states of awareness. "Choosing Life" presents conscious breathing as a choice to grow and expand awareness, rather than to remain in the unconscious limited breathing pattern of survival. The International Breath Foundation engaged international film makers and breath coaches to make the film, as a way of introducing the concept of breathwork to a wider audience

7. Break Through with Breathwork: Jump-Starting Personal Growth in Counseling and the Healing Arts

 

Jim Morningstar

Published by North Atlantic Books, 2017

When working with trauma and chronic health issues, it can often seem like the healing process gets stuck or is producing only minimal progress. In this groundbreaking book, clinical psychologist Jim Morningstar, PhD, shows therapists, bodyworkers, and other health care professionals how to achieve remarkable breakthroughs with their clients using the power of Therapeutic Breathwork.
Unlike more commonly known mindfulness breathwork techniques--which typically only involve slower-than-normal breathing--Therapeutic Breathwork is designed to also include faster-than-normal breathing (35-75 breaths per minute) to enervate the sympathetic nervous system. This is especially useful in helping to release blocks that arise while working through difficult emotional issues, including PTSD, addiction, depression, and anxiety. While traditional talk therapy can take many years, sometimes decades, to produce minimal relief, Therapeutic Breathwork can help facilitate astonishing breakthroughs within a single session. Morningstar explains how therapists can reinforce these breakthroughs with additional techniques for self regulation, dramatically reducing recovery time and often resolving challenges that might never have been worked through in standard practice.
