PREPARING FOR YOUR UPCOMING BREATHWORK SESSION

Hello!

Thank you for booking with me.

It is such an honor to share this gift with others.

Something people often question is am “in the right place”, or “prepared enough”.

I want to remind you that we’re just breathing, and that wherever you find yourself now, is perfect.

You don’t need to do anything but be fully you.

No need to carry or dim anything during this time.

Chances are you carry a lot, so let’s allow some space for you to rejuvenate.

Cool? Now below are some tips you can choose to use, or not.

TIPS + WHAT TO BRING

Online/virtual:

• Use headphone for immersion. I will use my voice and music to guide you

• Have a water bottle near

• Bring Chapstick (for the rounds where we breathe in and out through the mouth)

• Intentionally set up your space to intentionally lie down and move through your process

  • Make your physical space comfortable and safe for you to lie down

  • If you’d like, let people who might be in the same building know you’ll be in a session, and it’s possible you’ll release some emotion

  • Set your phone to “do not disturb” during the session

• Avoid eating a heavy meal 1-2 hours prior to the session

• Bring a journal (often best if it’s physical).

• Wear comfortable, non-constraining clothing.

In-person:

• Yoga mat or similar to lie on

• Water bottle

• Chapstick

• Blanket if you get cold

• A physical journal

• Wear comfortable, non-constraining clothing.

• Consider avoiding a heavy meal 1-2 hours prior to the session

• Bring anything that will help you feel most comfortable

HOW TO SHOW UP

This session is for you, so do whatever you need to allow yourself to be fully with yourself during this time.

If possible, I recommend putting a little buffer before and after for yourself, even if only ten minutes to settle in and then ten minutes to integrate and transition back to things.

Just suggestions,

I’ve had someone show up for an outdoor session after eating a large steak meal with nothing to lie on, and they had a beautiful session.

The right way is what’s right for you.

A little background

Breathwork found me back around 2023 and has been one of the most powerful, beautiful, and meaningful practices for me on my personal journey—especially after quitting a cocktail of pharma meds [for anxiety, depression, & insomnia] back in September 2024.

I’d been on them for two decades (don’t recommend + highly recommend professional help), and needed something to help me regulate my nervous system…it was one of the most challenging times of my life…we can go into the story another time, want to keep this short.

Breathwork has supported me in seeing my vision more clearly, to my own inner truth, closer to God, and has so many incredible uses and benefits that vary per technique, context, & intention.

And even though I’m just getting started (about 2 years into my practice at the time writing this), I’ve led 100+ different sessions for my own groups, small corporate teams, retreats, coaching communities, & meditation communities. Ranging from full journeys to daily practices, to quick activity primers.

Now I’m grateful to share one of the most powerful methods within breathwork that I’ve discovered so far, Somatic Breathwork Journeys through the SOMA+IQ™ method.

FEEDBACK

To complete my practicum, I need your open feedback after your session.

Please take a moment to complete this feedback survey after you’ve received your session.

Thank you so much for being a part of my journey, and for allowing me to share this with you 🙏

Sincerely,

Joey Boyer
