In this evening session, we will guide you into an experience of deep connection to your body and exploration of your feelings by using conscious connected breath, movement, sound, and touch. The intention is to support your body’s natural process for releasing mental, emotional, and physical blockages stored in the body – opening the way for feelings of aliveness, self love, and deep relaxation.
Throughout the session, you are invited and supported to stay present and connected to your body and felt sense. Through this embodiment, emotional charge can lose its intensity, empowering you to consciously feel what is alive in you, with love and acceptance. To let emotions and feelings flow through you without dropping into stories or attachment. Through this, we access our innate power for healing and transformation.
We will first guide you through a warm up, to fully arrive in your body, and set the container, with a focus of creating a safe space. From there, we will explore resources in our body, serving as our anchor for the session. The breathing itself will take around one hour and is based on BioDynamic Breathwork and Trauma Release System (BBTRS). During the session, everything is welcome, and we do not judge certain feelings as being “better” than others, so such seemingly different things as joy, love, sadness and anger may all arise within the same session. We invite expression of what arises through movement and sound, while stillness and silence can be just as powerful. At the end of the session, we will guide you into a phase of deep integration.

About Your Guides
We are Carmen and Christian. We hold space for joyful transformation through soft power – inviting gentleness and self-love into the process of diving deep into our inner worlds, our shadows, and our light. We act from a place of loving kindness, with authenticity and vulnerability. Our core mission is to support you to find your own truth, and to live that truth in your actions. We follow our curiosity for what makes us and others come alive, and how to truly nourish body and soul.
Carmen has a passion for challenging herself and others to move beyond their comfort zone, letting curiosity and love guide the way. In this workshop she brings together her experiences in Yoga, Tantra, intentional communities and art. She received her teacher training at Durga’s Tiger School ® in Ecuador, Switzerland and Germany and is a certified YA RYT-500 teacher. She also co-founded a conscious community near Zürich, integrating personal development into daily co-living.
Christian creates experiences that connect people to their inner wisdom, their magic, and their personal power – based on his own journey in Tantra, Yoga, breathwork, music, dance, bodywork, and writing. He received his YA RYT-500 certification from Durga’s Tiger School ® in Ecuador and has been part of the school faculty both in Ecuador and Europe since.
