About becoming certified in Holotropic Breathwork

REGISTRATION AND COST

Join us for an extended weekend of Holotropic Breathwork® in the beautiful Connecticut River Valley in springtime.

This event is open to all.  You do not need prior experience with Holotropic Breathwork® and there are no pre-requisites to attend.

NOTE: For those who complete (or have already completed) a GTT Virtual Module, this double-breathwork will fulfill the requirement toward certification.

With Holotropic Breathwork® each participant gains direct access to their own inner healing wisdom. In your HB session, this wisdom brings you a unique and ideal combination of experiences that can include aspects of your personal history and birth, as well as psychological death/rebirth, and an infinite array of transpersonal experiences.

Through deep, effective breathing; a specially designed musical journey; and a safe and supportive setting with a trained staff of facilitators, you experience a true expanded state of awareness, allowing deep self-exploration and personal transformation. Mandala drawing and group processing of the experiences are important integrative elements of the Holotropic process.

REGISTRATION AND COST

Open to anyone interested. Previous experience with Holotropic Breathwork® is not necessary.

Each participant will have two sessions of HB as an experiencer, or “breather,” and two sessions as a partner, or “sitter”. Besides the breathwork sessions and the topics covered (described below), there will be art, music, dancing, film, and integration during the module.

In addition to Holotropic Breathwork® breathing and sitting, topics explored in these modules are especially relevant for anyone working with others in expanded states of any sort for transformation and personal healing.

In this module, Holotropic theory comes alive. It’s where we experience the essence of the practice first hand. We will discuss the principles that support and inform the practice of Holotropic Breathwork® focused release work. Tom will explain the fundamentals of HB and why it is such a special method for personal exploration and healing.  We will also get to practice holotropic focused energy release work.

Topics include:

1) The power of the Inner Healer
2) Facilitator presence and skills
3) Focused energy release work – principles and ethics
4) Focused energy release demonstration and practice (hands-on work by participants)
5) Moving toward closure, and closure
6) Special challenging situations when facilitating

These modules are open events and suitable both for participants in the Holotropic Breathwork® training program, as well for those attending primarily for their personal journey of transformation.

Understanding spiritual emergency is one of the major contributions of the holotropic perspective.  Whether you are a professional or a layperson, someone interested in working with or supporting people in transformational crises, or primarily in your own growth, the module offers a rich experience and valuable information. In addition to differentiating between psychosis and spiritual emergency, we’ll also explore the intensely practical aspects of who, in these kinds of crises, can benefit from Holotropic Breathwork® and how best to work with them in their emergencies. This workshop includes a discussion of the concept of spiritual emergency, its manifestations and forms, historical and anthropological perspectives, treatment strategies and work with family and friends.

The six-day module format is a wonderful opportunity to deepen your process of self-exploration, and to directly experience the healing potential of non-ordinary states using Holotropic Breathwork®. You will meet like-minded people from around the world, and explore together in a safe and supportive environment. You will also learn tools and techniques for living a more creative and fulfilling life, and will have extensive personal contact with some of the best Holotropic facilitators in the country. All modules include four Holotropic Breathwork® sessions, two as a ‘breather’ and two as a ‘sitter’, along with valuable time for group sharing.

In addition to experiencing Holotropic Breathwork®, topics explored in this module is especially relevant for anyone working with others in non-ordinary states of any sort for transformation and personal healing.
