Do I need experience?

No. Sessions are fully guided from start to finish, and most people who attend have never done breathwork before. You’ll be talked through everything as you go.

Not quite. Meditation is typically passive and still. SOMA Breath® is active — you’re guided through layered breathing patterns, music, visualisation and breath retentions to shift your physical and nervous system state, rather than simply sitting with your thoughts.

For most people, yes. Sessions are guided so you’re supported throughout and can pause or ease off at any time. As with any practice that affects breathing and the nervous system, it’s worth checking the contraindications below or speaking with me before booking if you’re unsure.

Are there any contraindications?

Breathwork involving layered breathing patterns and breath retentions isn’t suitable for everyone. If you are pregnant, have cardiovascular disease, epilepsy, a recent surgery, a serious mental health condition, or are otherwise unsure whether breathwork is appropriate for you, please get in touch before your first session so we can talk it through.

— WHAT IS BREATHWORK?

A structured, guided way to shift your state

SOMA Breath® is a guided breathwork system that combines ancient Pranayama breathing techniques with modern science, music, meditation, visualisation and breath retentions to help shift the way you feel — both physically and mentally.

Rather than relying on a single breathing technique, each session carefully layers different breathing patterns with specially designed music to guide you into a calmer, more focused and deeply restorative state.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, physically run down or simply disconnected from yourself, SOMA Breath® provides a practical way to slow down, reset and reconnect with your body.

At JP Bodywise, I see breathwork as a natural extension of remedial massage. While massage helps release tension held in the body, breathwork helps create the internal conditions for your body and nervous system to recover, regulate and function at their best.
