Holotropic breathwork uses breath as a sacred medicine to evoke extra-ordinary states of consciousness for self-discovery and healing using accelerated breathing to an exquisitely beautiful and powerful music-scape. Dr. Stanislav Grof and his latewife Christina pioneered this approach starting in the 1970s when research into the healing potential of non-ordinary states with psychedelic medicines was stopped. Although the protocol for Grof® Breathwork is similar to that used for sacred and psychedelic medicines, it is a substance-free and natural approach to expanding consciousness and integrating mind, body and spirit. A session follows the basic set and setting of a psychedelic session.
Workshops are held monthly at this location on Vancouver Island near Nanaimo about 1/2 hour from departure bay ferry.

Grof holotropic breathwork is more than a technical breathing exercise. It is a protocol for safely undertaking inner journeys using breath, music and skilled facilitation. Dr. Stanislav Grof and his late wife Christina pioneered this approach starting in the 1970s when research into the healing potential of non-ordinary states with psychedelic medicines was stopped. Although the protocol for Grof® Breathwork is similar to that used for sacred and psychedelic medicines, it is a substance-free and natural approach to expanding consciousness and integrating mind, body and spirit. A session follows the basic set and setting of a psychedelic session.
Workshops are held at this location the third Saturday of every month.
