What is Shamanic Breathwork?
Shamanic Breathwork is a form of conscious connected breathing, built upon the foundations of Integrative, Holoptropic and Rebirthing breathwork. It combines conscious connected breathing with body and energy work and a powerful chakra attuned music journey to guide you into states of altered consciousness for deep transformation.
In Shamanic Breathwork, your breath becomes a catalyst to move you beyond the ego into the deepest parts of your body, mind and spirit. This provides you an opportunity to uncover patterns that have you stuck, release emotions, move energy and receive powerful insights. Each session is immediately followed by a Shamanic Shakti Art Process of integration where you will be given time to draw, journal or express your experience.
A Shamanic Breathwork Ceremony provides individuals with a safe container where they can experience the healing transformations that unfold during altered states of consciousness. Through this process, individuals are able to undergo a transformative journey through the breath — Awakening the Shaman Within.

What are the benefits of Shamanic Breathwork?
During a Shamanic Breathwork session, you may experience any number of states of being from anger and grief, to utter bliss and connection to the cosmos; you can have a womb memory experience (rebirth), you might uncover childhood memories; or you may experience downloads or deep Knowing. It’s an invitation to embrace the totality of what it means to be human, express the full range of emotions that may arise and connect with your own inner wisdom and healer. The full spectrum of humanness is available and no two breathwork journeys are the same. Coming into a session with no expectations and full acceptance of all that arises is recommended to get the most out of your experience.
- Release anything no longer serving your highest good and soul purpose and call in what you want to receive
- Feel more empowered and connected to your body and soul
- Surrender to the wisdom of your inner healer and shed old identities, beliefs and trauma
- Connect with lost parts of yourself, receive guidance from above, visit your ancestors or perhaps past lives
- Awaken more sensation and pleasure in your body - opening the gateway to deeper emotional and physical intimacy
What is your training and lineage?
I completed my Shamanic Breathwork Facilitator Training through Venus Rising Association for Transformation, studying under my mentor, Linda Star Wolf.
Shamanic Breathwork Venus Rising Lineage
Venus Rising and the Shamanic Breathwork Process was created by Linda Star Wolf in 1996. For more than 30 years Star Wolf has continued to study the lineages of: Integrative Breathwork, created by Jacquelyn Small; Holotropic Breathwork, created by Stanislav Grof; Rebirthing Breathwork, created by Leonard Orr, along with many other forms of altered states breathing/healing techniques. Star Wolf also received a variety of teachings and transmissions of Wolf Clan Wisdom Teachings directly from Yeh-Weh-Node, Twylah Nitsch, her adopted Wolf Clan Grandmother. The Shamanic Breathwork Process draws upon each of these lineages, as well as other Ancient Shamanic Mystery School teachings.
