What we’re about
Creating a sacred space of worship to connect to source through the breath practice. The breath practice can bring on spiritual awakenings. “Breathwork” refers to respiratory therapies, rooted in Eastern practices utilized to effectively reduce stress-related illness, and heal trauma, depression, heart disease, cancer, and other preventable diseases in a safe and non-invasive way. Through this Pranayama practice you may experience the healing ability innately each one of us has through the simple use of your own breath.
About Ceremonial Breath…
Ceremonial Breath is an individual style of breath practice created around popular sacred plant medicine ceremonies from indigenous religions worldwide. The BREATH is the medicine. The experience incorporates Shamanic elements including the singing of “Icaro” (song of blessing), burning of Palos Santos, and Anointing of scared oils allowing for the connection to nature, the spirit world, and universal oneness. Because of these elements, it is a unique experience not to be missed and allows for deep gentle healing for your body, mind, and spirit.
We begin with a welcome and share with intent for the session. You will then be taught the three-part breath practice. During the practice, you will lay in “savasana” or resting state, and follow Melissa’s instruction with periods of breath retention enhanced with inspirational music in a safe and sacred space. At the end of the session, there will be 15-30 minutes of integration when you may share your experience and allow for what is called grounding or “getting back into” the body after the practice has concluded.
The atmosphere is safe, loving, non-judgmental, and very divine. It is open to anyone over the age of twelve regardless of your beliefs, culture, or creed. Skeptics are especially encouraged to join. No experience in yoga or a breath practice is necessary!
Please bring a water bottle, yoga mat, blanket, eye cover, and journal for inspired writing after.

The gentle pranayama methods of Ceremonial Breath do not promote hyperventilation or re-traumatization for the most part and tend to be non-invasive. HOWEVER, Ceremonial Breath is not for everyone and you should consult your doctor first if you have a history of serious epileptic seizure, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, major cardiovascular issues, serious psychiatric symptoms, or a history of aneurysms. If you recently have had surgery and still have stitches or other medical or physical conditions which would impair your ability to breathe deeply and lay on your back on the floor for an hour then perhaps Ceremonial Breath is not for you.
