This month we prepared a special workshop at Notorious!

We will connect to the core beliefs that have shaped our behavior and have an opportunity to clear what doesn't serve us anymore while creating new empowering beliefs to show up as the best version of ourselves!

Do you want to let go of what's holding you back? Connect with how mental constructs limit you and how to find freedom? Ready for a real-life breakthrough?

Learn to overcome problems through wisdom that your body can provide to face your challenges. Connect with how mental constructs dictate our thoughts, feelings, and actions, and consequently, how mindset directly determines our experience of life. Shift from fear to liberation by connecting with the root cause of the issues and then apply your inner wisdom to your challenges and discover your own power.

Our trauma-informed facilitators will be there to hold a safe space and fully support you throughout this experience. Part of the beauty of this modality is accessing healing in the presence of an empathetic witness.

WHO IS THIS WORKSHOP FOR?

Despite being adults, past events can still influence how we think, feel, and act. We can understand unhealthy patterns and dynamics in our lives today by tracing back what beliefs we adopted. It is possible to change these patterns by gently acknowledging them. You may need to connect with the core of your beliefs if you notice any of the following signs:

• You have a deep fear of being criticized

• You feel there’s something wrong with you

• There are parts of yourself you’re afraid to express or feel shame around

• You feel guilty for saying no or taking solitude when needed

• You constantly criticize yourself

• You find yourself repeatedly in the same relationship dynamics

• You feel responsible for other people’s emotions and well-being

• You don’t trust yourself to make decisions

• You are a chronic people-pleaser 

• You relentlessly chase the illusion of perfection

• You are scared to move your plans into action

The intention of this workshop is to provide you with a safe and loving space where you can examine these parts of yourself with compassion and understanding. Developing this connection will allow you to become aware of your inner needs, desires, and expressive voice. Diving deep & taking your power back.

How does somatic breathwork work?

We enter altered states of healing through deep, connected, conscious breathing. When we interrupt the patterns of our autonomic nervous system, we can release stored tension and release what no longer serves us.

Breathwork can help you:

• Pinpoint and clear out existing stress

• Discover and attend to emotional wounds

• Identify stored trauma in the body

• Give permission to suppressed emotions

• Return to a state of authentic self

• Access altered states of consciousness

• Re-regulate the nervous system

• Reconnect to our Soma 

• Reprogram belief systems 

• Soften and surrender to safety, love and connection to the self and others

Remember - While breathwork is about releasing, it’s also about bringing something new back in. Just as we will face and work through wounds, fears, trauma, etc., we will also cultivate safety, joy, serenity and inspiration. This practice will give us the opportunity to clear space needed to be able to embody all that the spirit of life has in store for us.
