For thousands of years, men have circled up for council for various intentions... In a time when NZ Tāne (Men) are disproportionately leading world suicide statistics, conversations about mental health are more important than ever. Everybody knows someone struggling from a mental illness, and it is not always that easy to reach out.

Under Rākaunui (full moon) Brotherhood will create a space for men to come together and share, experience, and dive deep into what it means to step into a healthy embodied masculine presence through witnessing, reconnecting and releasing old patterns, traumas and tensions from the body and mind.

There is a new paradigm of the masculine emerging, one that is uplifting our wellbeing, reclaiming our sovereignty and reconnecting to our divine purpose. Combining wellbeing elements of karakia, men's council, breathwork and yin yoga sound healing, we will co-create a powerful and safe environment where magic can take place.

"Something very special happens when men come together and get honest with themselves and with other men." - Steven Todd

What is Breathwork?

Via www.stevenjtodd.com

Breathwork is a healing modality that is taking the world by storm. Why? Because it is so effective! It allows people to heal themselves through the power of their own breath. Breathwork is a powerful way to release old energies, memories and tensions from the body and mind.

How does it work?

By laying down and relaxing the whole body listening to a soundtrack journey we breathe in a conscious connected rhythm. This breathwork practice is inhaling and exhaling with an open mouth, t is a circular breathing pattern with no pause between the inhale and exhale. Throughout the session you will be guided into a non ordinary state of consciousness using the breath to access parts of yourself that is usually outside of your daily awareness. During the session the sympathetic nervous system will be activated to access those deeper layers of the body and mind to release stuck energy which can lead to more freedom in the body. In this non ordinary state of consciousness the subconscious mind may bring old memories and old beliefs to the surface to be healed which can result in more inner peace and clarity.

Group breathwork sessions are very powerful and profound. Together we unlock emotions, traumas and energy that has been suppressed so we can feel, heal and reclaim our true power. For more information about breathwork, how it works and if this is for you click here

(Please note this is not Wim Hoff breathing there are no pauses or breath retention throughout the breathwork journey.)
