We all hold unconscious tension in our bodies. It’s a natural defense mechanism. These tensions, or holding patterns, are created when we go through difficult physical, or emotional experiences in life.
For example, the only way to hold back sadness from being felt or expressed is to constrict certain parts of our bodies. In order for us to hold back sadness, we may constrict the muscles around our eyes to stop us from crying. We may tighten our throats and jaws to hold back what we want to say. We may constrict our respiratory muscles to stop us from sobbing.
While these moments of constriction happened in our past, we keep carrying them around, preventing us from feeling and expressing ourselves fully.
Through BMF BREATHWORK, we can teach the body to let go of these holding patterns, so we can get back in touch with our bodies, emotions, pleasures of life, and create lasting change.
As opposed to giving you peak experiences, the BMF Method aims to create lasting change, through a gentle release of the body’s holding patterns.
The BMF Method uses potent breathing techniques, empowering movements, and clear self-observation to create lasting change in your life.
It’s meant to help you connect back with yourself, and let go of your anxieties and worries about the future. It’s meant to create a safe environment in the body, where you can be present and receive life as it happens.
Pleasure, love, power, voice, intelligence, creativity, peace, joy, and freedom. All of that and more is your birthright. It may be time to start reclaiming it.
