Breathwork

Leonard Orr's style of Breathwork, Rebirthing-Breathwork is based on 

the technique of conscious connected breathing; connecting the inhale 

and exhale without pause or lock in between them. Stanislav Grof's 

Holotropic Breathwork can include hyperventilation, which Grof 

believes can aid emotional integration.[1]. According to Vivation 

Breathwork, hyperventilation is unnecessary and is caused by a 

non-relaxed exhale. Emotional integration comes from connecting with 

the feelings honestly, which is made easier through a relaxed and 

connected breath. [2]

There are many other types of Breathwork which have emerged over 

the last few decades, including Integrative Breathwork, Transformational 

Breathwork, Shamanic Breathwork, Kris Kassidy's Breakthrough 

Breathwork, Clarity Breathwork, Conscious Connected Breathing, 

Radiance Breathwork, Zen Yoga Breathwork, and others. Older 

non-Western techniques such as Yoga, Pranayama, Tai Chi, and 

Chi Kung are also offered as classes and written about in the West 

more frequently than in the past.

Orr founded conscious breathing as one of the five aspects of spiritual 

purification that he still supports today. In his low intervention approach, 

there is breathing guidance at different points and no encouragement 

for movement or externalising emotion.

Grof's Holotropic Breathwork emerged from his study of the healing 

potentials of nonordinary states of consciousness since the mid-50s. 

It utilizes deep, fast breathing in combination with loud evocative music. 

In Holotropic Breathwork, the sessions are less facilitator-directed 

and more client-directed, believed to be guided by an innate healing 

intelligence. Trained facilitators support each individual's process 

Kris Cassidy's Breakthrough Breathwork Meditation combines music, 

massage, and energy work with verbal support to facilitate profound 

physical, emotional, mental and spiritual breakthroughs. Physical 

movement and emotional release are encouraged to promote a 

deeper connection with the Higher Self.
