Contraindications  

Breathwork has contraindications because of its strong activation of the nervous system and gland (endocrine system) and intense physical and emotional experience. With some health conditions, we need to be attentive when practicing breathwork. However, with other health conditions, it is better not to get into the practice before your conditions have improved. 

To be on the safe side, always let your facilitator know of your health conditions and the medication you are taking so he can be more mindful of your physiological and mental state and give you better support during your journey!

  • Pregnancy – (let us know of your stage)
