[Music] All right, welcome all of you beautiful, breathing people to another guided breathwork session. In today's powerful journey, we're going to be doing three rounds of two different techniques with the intention to release and let go of any negative energy that we're holding on to, consciously or unconsciously.
So, we'll start each round by breathing in through the nose and out through the mouth. It'll be belly, heart, out, and a powerful sigh. So, a full breath and a powerful sigh. In most sessions, it's a very passive exhale, just letting it fall out, but in this session, I encourage you to let it out with a bit more energy. Beautiful. So, each exhale, we're letting go of any tension, of any stress, any energy that is not serving our higher purpose.
And then halfway through each round, we'll switch to mouth breathing, which is even more activating on the body, allowing us to go deeper and to continue to release. This technique is called funnel breathing. And we'll be breathing in through pursed lips and imagine our body is in the shape of a funnel. So, starting each breath in the narrow part of the funnel, the lower belly, and then we rise the breath, expand, expand, expand up until the heart center. And then once we get to the very top, we let it go with another powerful sigh. So, it'll look and sound something like this. [Music] Beautiful. Rise the breath up the funnel and let go. As it goes up, the breath increases in intensity. Pull in and letting go. Beautiful. So, it's a lot of deep breathing into the heart space, the place for emotional and spiritual transformation.
And each round will be followed by breath retentions after the exhale of 1 minute 30 seconds. And this allows our body to be flooded with all these feel-good hormones and neurotransmitters. So, find your way to a comfortable and safe position, whether seated or lying down, and bring a gentle smile to your face. And we'll begin with round number one. In through the nose, out through the mouth, in three, two, one. Belly, chest, mouth. Beautiful, big, strong breaths, letting go on the exhale. Taking this time to connect and to ground into this moment. Beautiful work, everyone. Just a few more of these breaths, and then we'll move on to the funnel breathing in and out through the mouth, in three, two, one. [Music] Ah, ah. [Music]
All right, three more breaths. Two, last one. All the way in and hold this at the top, feeling the warmth and the love in this breath as it circulates through your body. Now, let it out with a sigh. Holding this for this one minute, 30 second breath retention, fully relaxing your body and just being present. [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] 15 seconds remaining, and we'll take that big, beautiful breath in, in three, two, one. All the way in and [Music] hold. And now let it out with a sigh. Yeah, beautiful work, everyone. Stay present. Stay in this moment. Move on to round number two. In through the nose, out through the mouth, in three, two, one. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause]
And we'll move on to the funnel breathing in and out through the mouth, in three, two, one. [Music] Beau, letting go of old thought patterns, letting go of any stress, letting go of anything that is holding you back from reaching your full potential. [Music] Three more breaths. Two, last one. All the way in, hold on to this energy. [Music] Smile. Now, let it out with a sigh, relaxing, feeling grounded for this one minute, 30 second breath retention. [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] 15 seconds remaining, and we'll take that big, beautiful breath in, in three, two, one. All the way in and hold this at the top. Squeeze your pelvic floor muscles, sending this energy up your spine. And now let it out with a [Applause] sigh. A little more work to do. One more round of this breathing journey. Round number three. In three, two, one. [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Two more of these breaths. All right, last one. Funnel breathing. [Music] Ah. [Music] A. [Music] Three more breaths. Two, last one. As big as you can, and hold. Squeeze your pelvic floor muscles, squeeze your abdominals, then be present. And now let it out with a sigh. Shh. Relaxing into your heart space, feeling a sense of gratitude in this breathless state for one minute, 30 seconds. [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] 15 seconds remaining, and we'll take that big, beautiful breath in, in three, two, one. All the way in. Hold this. Smile. Soften into this [Music] moment. And now let it out with a sigh. Take a sip in through the nose, let it out with a [Music] smile. And [Music] relax. Allowing your breathing to return to in and out through the nose, just remaining in the state of meditation and [Music] integration. Allowing yourself to feel whatever needs to be felt, always coming back into a state of [Applause] gratitude. Much love to all of you. Remember to breathe, and remember to laugh. Peace.
