To breathe ecstatically is to activate on all levels of being into “a state of being beyond reason and self-control”. It is a practice of surrender and flow.
Through dynamic movement of breath that is both energizing and highly focused we move into a space of release, of letting go. This ecstatic practice helps to dissolve emotional and energetic blockages and build resilience within the nervous system.

CAUTIONS + CONSIDERATIONS
As with all Breathwork practices, check in with your own intuitive knowing and ensure that you are comfortable. If discomfort arises, determine if you would like to continue.
Prolonged hyperventilation (over-breathing) may lead to physical experiences of dizziness, tingling, heart palpitations, muscle spasms, decreased blood flow to the brain, clouded vision, ringing in the ears and possible changes in cognition. While many of these are also considered ‘benefits’ of the practice, we must consider when and where these effects are not appropriate or supportive for health.
Individuals with arrhythmia, high blood pressure or other cardiovascular problems, a history of aneurism or blood clots, vision problems, osteoporosis, recent injuries or surgeries, or those experiencing psychiatric symptoms, seizures or are on heavy medications must exercise caution and are recommended to first consult with a medical professional prior to beginning practice.
