what to expect from a session



what to expect

It totally depends on the session! Each one is different, and will be every time. People can experience a range of things, such as: increased sensation and awareness of their body, heart, and mind; feelings and experiences that have been unattended to; insight about their motivations, behaviors, desires, and the dynamics they are experiencing; and a heightened sense of connection to parts of themselves, the world around them, a sense of guidance, and others.


We start by checking in and then observing and analyzing your current breathing patterns while sitting down. After the initial observation of your breathing, we'll transition into lying down and breathing with more of the full body. The bulk of the session will be lying down and doing the breathwork, with me lightly guiding when I think it's appropriate. Once the session is over, I'll send you detailed notes about what came up during the session (since sometimes it can be hard to remember what happened). I will sometimes include invitations for things to explore in between sessions in the notes I send you.


Breakdown of a Typical Session

Length: Sessions last between 90 minutes and 2 hours, typically, though can go longer in special circumstances when more content comes up.

Beforehand


To prepare for a session, if you have the time, you can rinse off, get into comfy clothing, and set up your space to be comforting. If you don't have the time to do that beforehand, just come as you are. If it's a virtual session, you'll need to set up a phone or laptop in a way that I'll be able to see and hear you while you are lying down and breathing.

During


We begin by grounding, relaxing, and breathing together. As you settle into it, you'll eventually start to notice feelings, images, or sensations that are ready for exploring. When that happens, I'll be there to help facilitate your process and support you to engage with whoever and whatever shows up along the way.

Afterwards


At the end of the session, we'll take a few minutes to debrief and make sure you feel ready to transition. Make sure to take care throughout your day and in the days following the session by drinking plenty of water, resting, and journaling as you feel called.
