It takes about ten sessions to learn to practise rebirthing breathwork yourself alone, each session lasts about two and a half hours.
A rebirther for thirteen years, I work avidly with the breath myself. I enjoy dynamic and practical applications of spiritual growth. I have sound practical understanding of the birth process and the nurturing of children. I work one-to-one with clients.
I have written a short introduction to Rebirthing Breathwork intended as a basic starting point, a concise book covering the basic technique and why we need it (most of it is available to read on this website).
It describes a Rebirthing breathwork session;
It explains what breathwork is used for;
It reflects upon the effect of upbringing on attitudes in adult life;
It suggests that knowledge, understanding and acceptance bring a sense of peace;
It inspires readers to challenge their limitations.
The technique I am describing is circular breathing, called Conscious Connected Breathing: once you have breathed in you breathe out without pausing, once you have breathed out you breathe in without pausing. Keep doing it.
Don’t be fooled, the simplicity of the technique belies its power to precipitate change.
