The Meaning of Breath
One-day Workshop about Breath, Regulation and Character Defense
Our breath is very personal. We all differ in the depth, width and frequency of our breathing. Besides, our breath reacts to the signals of the autonomic nervous system, our system for perceiving safety. In this workshop we explore the meaning of our breath. What does it tell us about how we perceive a situation? How can we enhance our feeling of safety? And which patterns are present in our breath? What do they tell us about our defenses?
In this experiential workshop we focus on your very personal breath. You connect to your breath and to what it tells you about yourself. What is the connection with your autonomic nervous system? And the connection with how you deal with life, your personality? How can you make more space for your breath, for your feelings, for you?
We will offer a deep experience of a full breath session. After that, you will feel released and expanded. At the end, we will pay full attention to integrating this experience.
A safe and playful space to discover new sides of yourself, expand your range of expression and experience the power of body-oriented psychotherapy.

Enrolling
Tanja Konig: after years of working and studying in the field of body-oriented therapy, I come to the conclusion that breath is one of the most central issues in life. It is the central roundabout to self-consciousness, feelings, personality and aliveness.
