breathing in constellations

Over three days, we come together in sacred space to breathe, release, and remember who we were always meant to become.We use an active Breathwork pattern to clear energetic residue and emotional debris. What remains after this clearing is exactly what we are ready to examine, Constellate and heal.What you'll receive at a Breathing in Constellations retreat is not two practices bolted together, but the fruit of Courtney and Hemla's enduring friendship, deep reverence for this work and shared devotion to transformation. The results are an alchemy of potent modalities which create a threshold for healing and a path home to yourself.All are welcome, no previous experience is necessary.

what is breathwork?

This type Breathwork is a foundational somatic healing practice using an active 3-part pranayama breath pattern done all through the mouth, followed by a resting period after the active breath is released.The pattern gives your mind something to focus on, so you can begin to tune into your body, noticing areas of constriction, and allow that energy to expand and begin to move and release with your breath. As a result, we can free stuck energies, clear limiting beliefs, and metabolize unprocessed emotions.While you are actively breathing, parts of your mind that don't normally communicate with one another have an opportunity to connect. In these sessions, it's not uncommon to connect the dots, receive downloads, and get insights to understand where you might be getting in your own way.Our breath is prescriptive, the right “medicine”, in the right dose…so every Breathwork session is a unique opportunity to heal and nurture yourself with love and compassion.

what is family constellations?

Family Constellations is a somatically based therapy that acknowledges that we are who we are because of all those who came before us. It is our human need to belong, and when someone is left out of a family system, they hold an energy until they are acknowledged and included.Epigenetically, what was left unhealed or unresolved in the past affects the generations that follow and is passed down through our DNA. Not only do we inherit our family genes, but we also inherit their behavior patterns, belief systems, and the unresolved stories of our ancestors.When we choose to do a Family Constellation, not only do we heal the traumas and unresolved issues from our ancestors, but we also heal something within ourselves, our children, and the generations that are yet to come.Family Constellations work like frequencies or waves of energy; once they are set in motion, they continue to vibrate through the universe.
