Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have a psychedelic experience without the use of any intoxicants?

Have you ever been curious about having a mystical experience and/or healing past traumas while being held in safe and supported way?

Heliotropic breathwork offers a safe and healthy alternative to ‘plant medicine’ and psychedelics through just the breath.

"Where in the world has that been all my life...and humbled by the mystery of it.
 For here was one of the forms of consciousness entirely different from the ordinary
and yet so close by -- separated from normal waking consciousness by -- what?

A handful of exhalations! "-Michael Pollan on Breathwork

Along with being legal and safer for the psyche (soul) than psychedelics, some facilitators are now indicating this type of breathwork helps to integrate previous altered states of consciousness induced by psychedelics in a way that psychedelics cannot.

Heliotropic breathwork offers you:

  • Connection to your Higher Self and inner healer

  • An opportunity to experience an altered state of consciousness

  • The ability to heal current ailments and past traumas

Heliotropic Breathwork invokes the concept of the Higher Self, one's inner healer and teacher. Called by many names in the ancient wisdom traditions the Higher Self, the Sun within, is the true healer and teacher.

Using evocative music and breathing the psyche (soul) enters a higher frequency and dimension of consciousness where true healing and transformation can take place. 

Currently we are witnessing the degradation of both the natural and human world as systems of the current paradigm continue to fail to promote a future in which this world can become a healthy and sustainable place.

It is now more important than ever to heal our self and become who we are meant to be in order for this world to become a healthy place.

Through Heliotropic breathwork and connecting to your higher self together we can begin to heal the world by healing ourselves.

Heliotropic Breathwork gives you the opportunity to fully express your self in a safe and sacred community while being held and witnessed by others.

After the day of breathwork you will receive transformational practices and support to help you integrate your experience so that your healing can continue to unfold.

“The Ultimate Identity of the individual with the Divine is the deepest secret that represents the mystical core of all great spiritual traditions… Holotropic [Heliotropic] Experiences have the potential to help us discover our true identity and cosmic status.” -Stan Grof
