About this event
What is Grof® Breathwork?
Grof® Breathwork is a unique, powerful, experiential method of self-exploration and psychotherapy developed by Stanislav Grof and his late wife Christina, based on perennial wisdom traditions and the results of modern consciousness research.
A combination of simple means: accelerated breathing, evocative music, and energy-releasing bodywork induces deep, holotropic states of consciousness, and the activation of our inner healing capacity, physically, psychologically and spiritually. “Holotropic” literally means moving towards wholeness.
In this group sessions participants work in pairs and alternate in the roles of “breathers” and “sitters.” The process is supervised by trained facilitators, who assist participants whenever support is needed.
The breathwork sessions last approximately 3 hours and each participant will take part twice as an active breather and twice as a “sitter” to another participant (4 sessions in total). Afterwards, in the facilitated sharing circle we integrate the experiences of the day.
The Adventure of Self-Discovery
There are things inside us that thinking can’t reach – old grief, held tension, a question we can’t quite name, a longing for something deeper. We can understand ourselves endlessly – in years of talk, in our own minds – and still feel stuck, as though we’ve reached a wall that insight alone can’t move us past. Sometimes the way through isn’t more thinking. It’s breath.
This is not a technique you have to get right. There is nothing to perform and nothing to force. Your own inner healing intelligence already knows the way – your only task is to breathe, and to trust what arises.
Meet Yourself In
Release – Let go of old emotional patterns and tension your body has carried for years.
Depth – Reach deep insight and spiritual experience, far beneath the surface of the thinking mind.
Aliveness – Reconnect with the life force moving through you.
Presence – Discover the art of being fully there – for yourself, and for another.
Wholeness – Come home to the parts of yourself you’d forgotten or set aside.
Why This Workshop Is Special
It’s the original method — full-depth Grof® Breathwork as Dr. Stanislav Grof, the pioneer of transpersonal psychology, developed and taught it.
It’s led from the source — guided by Ole Ry and Katie Sharrock, senior international trainers of Grof® Breathwork (Grof Legacy Training). Ole trained directly with Stanislav Grof himself.
It’s deeply held — with a full team of facilitators and assistant facilitators holding the space, so that every breather receives undivided attention and care.
