What’s Coming Up
A 75 minutes Conscious Connected breathwork journey with Sarah Lamb.
This traditional Breathwork Journey has its roots in both rebirthing and holotropic styles of transformative breath therapy. The physiological effect of the continuous breath is a shift in brain wave states where we experience our inner world with a new wisdom and higher perspective. It can reveal insights and remind us of what is truly important from a place grounded in truth.
Exchange: $45
Including in SOMM Full Access, Intro Offer, and Workshop Packs.

YOUR INTRO TO SOMM
“It is possible the next Buddha will not take the form of an individual. The next Buddha may take the form of a community, a community practicing understanding and loving kindness, a community practicing mindful living. And the practice can be carried out as a group, as a city, as a nation.”
—Thich Nhat Hanh
