HOLOTROPIC BREATHWORK IN A NUTSHELL
What is holotropic breathwork?

Holotropic means moving towards wholeness - a search most of us undertake, in our own unique way, for a large part of life.
Holotropic breathwork, developed by Stan and Christina Grof, has proven to be one of the most powerful ways of engaging in this process, facilitating a deep inner process which leads to openness, and an expansion of consciousness. This, in turn, opens us to healing and to wisdom which lies beyond the ego.
“People wonder at the height of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of rivers, at the vast compass of the oceans, at the circular motion of the stars; and they pass by themselves without wondering” St. Augustine
