Breathwork
Is breathwork safe for everyone?
The slow rhythmic breathing techniques of SOMA Breath are safe to be used for anyone, and can be beneficial for all individuals.
Forceful mouth breathing, prolonged breath holds and extended intense fast breathwork/hyperventilation for more than 5 minutes, should NOT be practiced in the case of any of the following:
Severe/critical diseases or infections if it impairs your ability to breathe
Severe uncontrolled hypertension (usually after a heart attack)
Organ failure or late-stage terminal illness
Pregnancy
If you have epilepsy, a pacemaker, or irregular heartbeat (Exception: your doctor gives you specific permission).
Some conditions (Eg: Tinnitus, hernias) may be aggravated by forceful mouth breathing, prolonged breath holds and prolonged, intense, rapid breathing/hyperventilation and careful attention to technique is required.
Tinnitus: To stop the pressure that builds up in the head, aggravating tinnitus in certain cases, participants should ensure they are performing a neck lock as instructed. This is when the person, when sitting down, lowers the neck a bit to create a "lock" preventing the air to go up.
Do not do SOMA Breath in the case of:
Full stomach
Flu or fever
Driving a car or operating machinery
In water
What types of breathwork do you offer?
I offer guided breathwork sessions that include rhythmic breathing techniques and pranayama. Each session is tailored to maximize your health and well-being needs, whether you seek relaxation, energy, or deep healing.
SOMA Breath is the core technique I use in breathwork sessions. This short video beautifully explains what it is, how it works, and why it’s so powerful. If you're curious about what to expect, this is a great place to start.
Spiritual Coaching
What is spiritual coaching, and how is it different from life coaching?
Spiritual coaching goes beyond mindset and goals—it helps you explore your deeper self, break through limiting beliefs, and connect with your intuition and purpose. It integrates tools like breathwork, meditation, and energy work to create lasting transformation.
How many coaching sessions do I need?
This depends on your goals! Some people benefit from a single session for clarity, while others prefer ongoing sessions for deeper transformation.
Intuitive Energy Healing
What is intuitive energy healing?
Intuitive energy healing works with the body’s energy field to release blockages, restore balance, and promote emotional and spiritual well-being. I use a combination of breath, intention, and energetic techniques to help you shift what no longer serves you.
How will I feel after a session?
Everyone’s experience is different. Some feel lighter, deeply relaxed, or emotionally released. Others may experience clarity, shifts in perspective, or even physical sensations as energy moves.
