10 Somatic Breathwork Exercises You Can Do Today
Ever feel like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders? Like stress and tension are just stuck in your body? Somatic breathwork can help. It's like a reset button for your nervous system that you can anytime, anywhere.
Understanding Somatic Breathwork
We're constantly bombarded with stimuli, our minds racing, our bodies tense and so many people are looking for ways to reconnect with themselves. You may have heard about "somatic breathwork" promising exactly that. Maybe you’ve found yourself having a bit of FOMO and thinking “oh no, I’ve just found Breathwork! Now I have to try Somatic Breathwork?”
At Breathing Space, we believe in stripping away the jargon and getting to the heart of what truly matters. And the truth is, almost all conscious breathwork practices are inherently somatic. It's about connecting with your body, feeling your breath, and noticing the sensations that arise. You don't need fancy labels or exclusive techniques to experience the power of breathwork.
