breath energetics
the art of vitality
the art of vitality
energetics: the total energy relations and transformations of a physical, chemical, or biological system
The origins
I started professional life as a classical musician.
Though classical music is a beautiful art to the initiated, it is very disconnected to life in general.
Along the way, I awakened to a different kind of music, that of the breath itself and its capacity for vitality.
Vitality is the quality of an organism being truly alive: pulsating, vibrating, flowing, dynamically energetic.
breath energetics is the practice of restoring and maintaining this condition.
It is about health, pleasure, joy, freedom, genuine expression…
We already have everything we need in our body, mind and spirit to get unstuck.
The reality of this ideal natural state of being is simple and it starts with the energy of the breath.
It was articulated very concisely by Alexander Lowen, the founder of Bioenergetics:
Energy→ Motility→ Feeling→ Spontaneity→ Self-expression
(The reverse is equally true.)
Where do you feel tight and where might you be stuck?
Breathe into that place and create space… allow some resonance in there.
Workshops. Presentations. Coaching.
Themes include:
Take a moment to sit quietly and be aware of your breathing. Then…
Breathe deeply into your very center right now, energize every cell in your body, and breathe out tension.
There is a whole répertoire of ways to breathe that burn away and dissolve tension.
As with all training, personalization is the key.
It all begins there. That’s the fundamental practice of healing the space within you and around you.
I look forward to making music together… with the breath.
