Description
A journey into the power of conscious breathing for therapy and everyday life.
Breathing is at the centre of our lives, yet we are only beginning to tap into its full potential as a tool for healing. Conscious breathing is a powerful mechanism for transforming our physiological, emotional and brain states, and is the fastest way to cultivate integrated presence. However, its full capacity for facilitating healing, personal development, stronger relationships, self-actualisation, and personal and collective love is vastly unrecognised and underutilised.
In this book, breathwork expert Jessica Dibb offers compelling reasons to integrate the power of breathwork with psychotherapy and other healing and wellness practices. Here readers will find inspiration for daily breathwork practice as well as the methods, case examples and actionable advice needed to incorporate breathwork into therapeutic sessions. Seamlessly marrying ancient wisdom with contemporary science, this insightful guide is for clinicians, breathwork practitioners and anyone interested in exploring the transformative power of breath.
Reviews
"In this remarkably comprehensive exploration of the varieties of conscious breathing (CB) and breathwork, Jessica Dibb makes a compelling case for the benefits to healers of incorporating it into their practices, and for readers to use in their lives. It’s brimming with clear details for such uses. From the Internal Family Systems perspective, CB can be an efficient way to calm protector parts, gain access to the healing essence in everyone which we call the Self, and find and heal exiled parts. I learned a lot from reading this fascinating book, and you will too." — Richard Schwartz, PhD, developer of the Internal Family Systems model and adjunct faculty, Harvard Medical School
"Jessica [Dibb] brings together scientific, clinical, psychotherapeutic, and transpersonal insights into breathwork, creating a comprehensive roadmap that seamlessly blends ancient wisdom with the latest research... This book is an inspiring invitation to rediscover the power of breath—and bring profound healing back to the heart of psychotherapy and daily life." — Alicja Heyda, Ph.D., Maria Sklodowska-Curie National Research Institute of Oncology, Gliwice, Poland
