What to expect
The Pause is a guided two-hour somatic breathwork evening — a space to drop out of your head and back into your body. Somatic means body-based: this isn't talk therapy or meditation. It's a direct, felt experience using conscious connected breathing to unlock what your body is holding.
We'll move through an intentional arc — from arrival and settling, through active breathwork, into deep rest and integration. You'll leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more grounded.
Why breathwork
Breathwork directly activates your parasympathetic nervous system, signalling to your body that it's safe to unwind. Great for those carrying chronic tension from training, work, or life.
Oxygenating the body and quieting the mind creates space for perspective. Many people leave breathwork sessions with clarity they've been searching for for weeks.
Breath is one of the most direct tools we have for processing and releasing stored emotions. This is a safe, supported space to let your body do what it already knows how to do.
For active people, conscious breathing supports HRV, improves sleep quality, and accelerates physical recovery. Complement your training with intentional restoration.
Something powerful happens when people breathe together. This is a shared experience that builds genuine connection — especially within the RFT community you already know and trust.
You've been breathing your whole life. This session will simply teach you to use it consciously. You'll be fully guided every step of the way — beginners are always welcome.
