I have seen it claimed that we all have only so many breaths from our first to our last. I think Patrick McKeown was one who stated this in the Oxygen Advantage when he was discussing the problems associated with chronic over breathing. I wonder if there has been a study on breath workers who practice fairly often, and whether or not we have a decreased lifespan. I wouldn't think so, because we all seem to be so freaking healthy. If too much breathing was bad for us, it should show up in the mortuary tables. I I'm guessing that the issue lies in the unconscious / chronic overbreathing and not the punctuated conscious/deliberate overbreathing

There have been studies showing the correlation between lung capacity and longevity. Concerning overbreathing, I like to use the illustration of the subway or train cars coming in filled with oxygen laden blood. When the doors open, it is CO2 that has to get back on the train and it pulls the oxygen out of the hemoglobin and and it steps into the train car to be breathed out of the lungs. Too much oxygen and not enough CO2 means that there are not enough molecules there to exchange places with the oxygen molecule on the train so oxygen is not released to the tissues and organs. It's a dependent relationship. Breathing light, slow, and deep will create enough air hunger that CO2 gets a chance to build up so that our tissues and organs get what they need. It is counter-intuitive and most don't understand the underlying health issues that can result from overbreathing and mouth breathing. Our role as educators is so important!!
I wanted to share what I will be doing with my pricing once I return from vacation. As many have said, you don't really get the power of this until you experience it. For that reason I think I would like to do two events a month to give a free introductory session. The first fifteen is an intro to me, to breathwork, it's history, evolution, and Breath Masters. Then there will be a 30 minute short-form hybrid journey with a seven minute lead in that will build to a eight minute segment of superventilation followed by a fifteen minute integration/down regulation. The goal will be giving people a taste but not the whole cake! The last 15 minutes will be unpacking their experience and what to expect in a longer journey. I will also use that time to outline pricing. This first experience is free, the next three are at a 25% discount in exchange for leaving a review. The next journeys will be at pricing that will be static for a year as I get established. So I think I want to make my first year pricing to be like this: ( I am in a small town) 1:1 $95 Couples $140 small groups $45 Large groups $35 Corporate small groups with introduction to breathwork teaching $ 250 Corporate large groups " " " $ 300-$500 Truthfully, I have been wavering about this pricing so I would really like input. I am not near a major market, so I think I need to keep in mind what other modalities charge. After the first year that will pop up at least 15%. Can we have a discussion about this? I am interested in input.

I'm curious where everyone is based in the world? I'm in Israel and was wondering if there are others from previous cohorts who are also here? I'd also love to know how people are bringing this work into their practices? Individual sessions, group sessions, online, face to face? I found myself getting overwhelmed at the possibilities and we aren't even there yet 😂

First contract!! I'm stoked to share that a counseling practice has signed up for 5 months ( one per month) of staff enrichment for their 12 therapists. There will be a group breath journey each month. Four of them have asked about 1:1 sessions and gift cards for a journey so they could gift them to relatives and friends. I had never thought of that!! I am just so grateful to Brian and the team, as well as to the who community. We are wind beneath each other's wings. It is so exciting seeing this take off. I am humbled and more excited than I have been in years!

That is great advice, and I’m so excited for your big win! We are all learning from each other aren’t we?
I have noticed a lot of discussion about diabetes including some contributions I have made. I have decided to take the online course diabetes and the breath and report back what I am learning so that we will all have tools to help our clients. Since 11.3% of the US population has diabetes and it is the 7th leading cause of death, it is likely we will all have diabetics as part of our service demographic. Since there are a half a million+ emergency room visits for either low or high blood sugar ( evenly split), it behoves us to have the best information on how the breath can help and some cautions to be aware of for longer journeys. I will keep our community posted.

@Eloy B yes, these are 2018 statistics and doesn't account for pre-diabetes. I spoke to a medical professional on this subject last week and he suspects that both diabetes and pre-diabetes are responsible for many of the serious cardiovascular issues including heart attack and stroke in the US, as often, pre diabetes is often not diagnosed.
I have been living in the Great Lakes region for the last year and today I went for a plunge. It was a little warmer than what I normally do (it was 50 degrees Faraheit today) but it was still really nice. I imagine I'll move to cold creeks as the temp rises. Next Saturday morning, I'm guiding a meditation, and a cold plunge. They are all first timers, so I'm stoked.

@Brian Kelly has touched us all in so many deep ways. This medicine that he is teaching us about is changing lives daily and it is so exciting to be part of it!
In the past, I facilitated some 1:1 journeys where people felt "nothing". I know some history about those people and I see how far they are away from themselves. Also, they were not able to breathe deeply. They don't even believe that they have any problem, even though their symptoms speak for themselves. Ignorance level 9000. Questions: - Why were they not able to breathe deeply? Does trauma play a role? - Do you give people a chance for a "test session" who you know are FULL of stuck emotions? Even though the chance is high that they won't experience much? - Would you suggest only selling packages to those kinds of people? I had the chance to do a few journeys with that type of audience where they cracked up after session 3 or 4. Then things started to change.

These are cases where hybrid journeys might do the trick. Fewer songs with superventilation might give them just the right taste. Most people are not afraid of the down regulation or integration slow breathing. They are afraid of the unknown. So baby step them in. We were all there at one time in our early days on the path. Folks in fear need much more time in explanation during an intro. When we are gentle and give them that extra attention it helps them to build their trust. Also people who have experienced deep trauma and are shut down will not open until they feel safe, That process takes time and patience from us. All kinds of breath work is effective, so maybe start more gently with the fearful.
Thank you @Joyce Harris for that amazing journey today. It helped me remember to be more present with my family and myself. 💜💚

@Marion Dekindt I so appreciate your affirmation. My heart feels at home with breathwork and the family here always is so kind. I have never met such amazing people!!
I have been able to facilitate some powerful sessions lately. One was on Thursday with a small group on Zoom. One participant was wearing a CGM (Continuous Glucose Monitor) due to having type II diabetes, and was amazed to take note of her glucose go down by 14 POINTS and remain stable for the rest of the session (I followed up with her 4 hours later, and it had remained level 😱) The other victory was this morning which was my 5th session with a lady in Finland who has had chronic asthma most of her life. I gave her homework to do during each week, but have only done the parasympathetic Journeys in the past. This morning we decided to do the do the 5 Primary Trauma Imprints. I made sure to go over the gas and brake pedals. She breathed like a total champ. . .only coughing quietly a couple of times, then doing 45 minutes of reintegration. "I didn't even realize I needed therapy"

Nasal breathing is always better with contraindications. With a type one diabetic, it would be advisable to limit the number of songs that they overbreathe even nasally.

@Marion Dekindt, that is why Brian has been so dilligent with the training. I think sometimes we think that if we don't go all out, we won't get benefit. Although, we sometimes can't point to extreme tetany or other outward signs, I have had enormous breakthroughs with moderating a long journey. I intersperse extra breath holds and nasal breathing and occasionally slow down and yet I am experiencing dramatic transformation. Going slow with folks with contraindications can still bring life changing results!! You have got this!

These lists are awesome! I just picked up The Body Keeps the Score again and there are so many new insights since I have been studying with BM. It reminds me of the serious nature of this sacred work and makes me want to make sure that I am staying centered and growing myself. The trauma epidemic is everywhere and so many need to be restored.
There has been a bit of discussion Relating to resistance for longer breath Journeys and I figured it would be good to press into that a little more to see if we can gain some insight. I've got my own hypotheses (some of which conflict with others)... but I am curious on other people's insight/thoughts this phenomenon (or if you even experience this resistance at all)

@Sabrina Defeyter I'm sorry that I didn't see this sooner. I have been quiet and in a very creative space lately. I think you are going through what every pioneer goes through. I just encourage you that people's subconscious hears you, even if their head is in skepticism and fear. You will witness breakthroughs but sometimes just being a Breath Ambassador for the first time to someone is really significant. I am glad that you have determination and don't forget to take care of and nurture you.

@Rym Marsit I have repeated journeys as well and am amazed that each time feels like the first time I have heard it. I did one the other night from one of the other breath masters, and it was like a masterclass. But I find benefit from sitting with one for awhile. I feel like I retain better. That's why repeating a few weeks later can be so powerful.
It really would help me so much in my personal grow if you guys would pick an answer below. And maybe it could help the others, too... I don't know if it is possible to comment below the poll but if does and you have a totally different methode pls share with us, it could be very valuable. My answer is the first one. Question: During your breathwork (the long sessions) how do you work on your issues? (And.. sorry for my English :))

I approach every journey with excitement! I anticipate change. I trust my body to bring up for me what I need at that moment and that the narrative will resonate. Often a few things will drift up and I know it was not a conscious thought. When this happens I allow and even follow that thought and let the guide of the journey lead me with that topic, theme, person, memory to that place of release and rewriting of the narrative. I welcome the "feels" and the renewal and the triumph at the end.

@Cindy Howard I think that is such a brilliant thing to remember. That's where we have often gotten lost in the weeds. I have released things through breath work that I didn't even know left a trauma imprint. It wasn't until the healing and the peace that I saw it was an unresolved issue. Thank you for sharing such a liberating truth!!
We humans are fueled by incentive and reward. Do something good, feel good about it, rinse and repeat. This is how we’ll sculpt your nervous system so your thoughts and feelings become a source of strength and internal inspiration rather than a source of self-sabotage and suffering. Basically this: the more you put into this group the more you’ll get out. I’ve designed this ecosystem to reward you for doing the things you know you want to do. The more you do the practices, the more you engage in a positive manner, the more you show up, the more you will get rewarded. In this way we create a positive feedback loop which spirals you upwards to the place you want to be. The other awesome thing? If you’re short of cash but you’re playing full out, you’ll be able to earn the points to access the full 9D Breathwork Community. If that’s not your jam and you just want access to my Premium stuff right away (cos there’s no time to waste and you’re on a fu**in' mission) - then go right ahead, click this link and follow the steps. Either way, we’re going to get you where you want to go. Enjoy the journey my friend. My team and I plus this community of game changers will be right there with you every step of the way. Brian

@Yvonne Wierenga we are so happy to have you!
So I’ve been pretty silent for the last few weeks as I’ve just found just the process of defining what it is I’m doing and putting it out to friends, booking the slots, sending the forms etc, has been so time consuming. But happy to say, I’ve now coached four journeys ( 3 Zoom, 1 live) and have the required full lineup booked for the next month … so we’ll see how it all unfolds! I am finding it an intense process while running 3 other businesses - singer, coach, jeweler- and taking another deep complementary course on Attachment Injury. But it’s happening! So far all the feedback has been super positive with 2 people booking a paid session, so that's encouraging. :) One thing that rattled me though ...was 2 of my clients after 5-7 min. in on the activation journey, I believe "gassed out"... as they seemed to go into a trance. I was live for 1 and on zoom for the other. The live, I kept holding her forehead and chest and softly talking to her that she was safe and I was with her. She was out for about 5 min. then jolted back to breathing, lightly. ( I was relieved when she came back!) But overall she never really got a deep belly or chest breath so I was surprised she responded that way. Very curious. The other zoom breather was an experienced WimH deep breather. She also went out for about 7 min. then bolted and went back to deep breathing as if nothing had happened. Both did not recall anything. And were a bit disconcerted. I assured them as best I could. I'm a professional singer for 45 years -so have a close relationship to my breath and have been consciously breathing deeply ( Wim, Holotrophic etc) daily (average 30 min) for many years. But I've never responded like that. Many other ways though. But this is new to me. How many of you have had this happen? What are your thoughts? Could it also be astral travel as opposed to fainting? As the live client said she was with a shaman when this happened the first time she breathed and he said she went to another plane or was voiding the truth. She has a small t- traumatic history though so perhaps it's the body's way of pulling away or processing it unconsciously gently? @Brian Kelly thoughts please?

It really works. I purchased some medical tape on the advice of @Brian Kelly and attached it to my face as in the attached photo. Woke up after 7 hours sleep feeling really refreshed.

I will continue to do this faithfully for the coming month to train myself that it is nose only while sleeping.👃

I think celebration starts with gratitude, followed by an action. The more playful and free the action, the more festive the celebration. When it comes to comfort, I love it! A lot of my life pushes me past that zone, so when I get to park in comfort for a minute, I am thrilled. Stagnation is no movement, resistance, inaction and like stagnant water become a bit stinky. Definitely not the same for me as experiencing comfort. Comfort is puppies, hugs, a warm blanket with hot tea on a soft couch, the reassuring voice of a long time friend. I freakin love that shit!

@Enoch Abraham there is some great stuff to unpack in your comment. We are certainly complicated beings, never a one size fits all. I can relate to the comments about overweight, as that is my current state. You make valid points. Some comfort isn't beneficial and some is. Such an individual journey and there is no "wrong" just opportunities for evolution and growth. I'm on board for that!
I just got done with my second Zoom session for a client / IG follower with asthma. She mentioned that she was able to arrest an asthma attack this last week, thanked me for helping her to become aware of her breath and teaching her how to modify her breath's effect on her nervous system 1 hour and 15 minutes and I feel on top of the world (as does she) 'scuse me while I rest on my laurels for a minute 😁💓🏅

That's a wonderful win and such an encouragement for you and your client!
I've gone and listened to "The Body Keeps the Score" again now as I am doing the coaching training I have read this book years ago, but have not been able to afford EMDR or any of the other modalities referenced in this work. After doing a few TBJ's, I am ever more convinced that the multiple sclerosis I have been battling for the past 12 years is tied to unresolved childhood trauma. I've worked with a fellow hypnotherapist, self-hypnosis, talked with counsellors and psychologists...but the cognitive element leads my conscious mind to throw up all manner of defense, lying to myself, saying that I have "dealt with it"🙄. This leads me to seek solutions for all the accessory "causes" (parasite infestation/Lyme/etc) and I tell myself stories to assuage my monkey mind (I think I'm a fairly intelligent person, and I tell exceedingly persuasive/compelling stories). After a TBJ, my ability to walk smoothly without a cane is improved greatly and persists for a longer time than my previous TBJ. #PeelThatOnion

While making good strides with the journeys towards my certification, and while practicing different breathing methods to improve my CO2 tolerance, I've been struggling with my breath over the past 2 weeks. My airways get constricted during my sleep and I wake up with a dry cough in the middle of the night. At first I tried different breathing methods to help me but after 15 minutes I get fed up (I also want to go back to sleep) and use a ventolin inhaler. I saw my doctor who listened to my lungs and said they sound great. So I'm wondering what this might be. As a child I used to get bronchitis and at some point in life a doctor said I have shortness of breath (or mild asthma) and since then I've been carrying an inhaler with me which I usually hardly use, but have used it way too much in the the past 2 weeks, and nothing seems to improve. My next stop will be a lung x-ray. But before I go all medicinal, I thought I'd ask here if anyone has experienced anything like this or if you want to suggest what you think it might be. I initially thought it's old childhood stuff surfacing to be released, but now I'm not so sure. @Brian Kelly - any ideas?

@Nikki Clifton , it isn't just diaphram contraction, it is a desire or urge to breathe. Sometimes this shows up as a flutter in the diaphram but not always. It is your first sense of breath hunger. When you are not thinking about it, how many breaths per minute do you take?

@Anati Bloch how is the humidity in your space? Could increasing the humidity help? Also, do you do mouth taping?
Has anyone found that while the activation sequences our amazing waking you up, really tapping into the sympathetic nervous system can also bring up a lot of stuff that we have experienced while in a hypersympathetic state. Looking to hear about the experiences of others and how you got through it?

@Brian Kelly i believe he is working on a current project with this. Maybe Brian could comment?
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.We ask ourselves "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?".Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to Shine as children do... We were born to make manifest the Glory of God that is within us. And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our deepest Fear, our presence automatically liberates others. This then is our true purpose in life, to discover who we truly are and be all that we can be." - Maryanne Williamson
