FAQ

+ Why should I give Revelation Breathwork a try?

Revelation Breathwork is the ideal activity for so many because it truly meets you where you are. If you need physical relaxation, you will receive that. If you need an emotional release, you will experience that. If you need a mental break from constant thought and worry, you will receive that. If you are open to mystical experiences, you can have that as well.

The most important part of Revelation Breathwork is to allow yourself to have whatever experience you are having, without judging it, wanting it to stop, trying to deny that you are having it, or wishing it was different. If you are able to surrender to the experience and trust that your body is safe and knows what it can handle, you will have a healing and rejuvenating experience.

With Revelation Breathwork you are in complete control of the experience. If it is getting too intense you simply stop or slow your active breathing. Revelation Breathwork is empowering for this very reason. You are the person who is controlling the breathing. Nothing is being done to you.

Participants regularly report that Revelation Breathwork has helped them to: a) sleep longer and dramatically improve the quality of their sleep, b) relieve chronic pain, c) shift depression, d) release anger, e) support recovery from addiction, f) receive intuitive insights, and g) clarify troublesome areas of their lives. In addition, participants report that it helps them find meaning and purpose in their life, get rid of negative thoughts, diminish their fear of death, release accumulated stress and trauma, and feel a sense of greater connection with physical, emotional, and spiritual parts of themselves.

+ What can I expect during a Revelation Breathwork class?

A Revelation Breathwork class is approximately 60-70 minutes long, separated into three parts. Each person has their own space and usually lays on a yoga mat or blanket.

The first part includes a short five-minute introduction explaining how to do the 2-part active breathing technique. We make sure everyone understands the process before moving forward. We also may raise a brief theme for the night like abundance, surrender, empowerment, or compassion.

The second part consists of the active breathing portion. This lasts about 30 minutes. It is accompanied by positive, upbeat music that has a good beat and energy. Some people like to breathe to the beat of the music. Towards the end of the active breathing session, there is a song with bigger energy where participants are encouraged to let out a big, primal scream. This can be an incredible release.

The third part is the rest & receive portion of class. This is where the active breathing technique stops and we transition to regular nose breathing, like savasana in yoga. Softer music is played and participants are guided through a process.

+ How can I integrate my experience after class?

Revelation Breathwork is extremely personal. As such, participants have a wide-range of experiences that are unique to their lives. It is common to be at a loss for words after a session since your analytical mind has been moved to the side. When the session is over, this analytical mind can come rushing in wanting to understand or explain what happened. There are several ways we can integrate after a session:

  • • Some people find that talking about their experience can validate it. They find comfort in discussing the experience with others.
  • • Other people wish to remain in silence and enjoy the quiet before the analytical mind kicks in.
  • • It’s common to feel ungrounded after a session. Drinking water helps a lot. As does eating nourishing foods. Get out in nature and get your bare feet on the earth.
  • • Some people like to journal or draw after their experience.
  • • Some people feel charged and energized, while others may feel drained.

All experiences are OK. And because each session is different, how we feel after each session may be different. If you have any concerns about how you feel after a session, please contact your facilitator to discuss how to manage your experiences.

+ How often should I attend Revelation Breathwork classes?

There is no one correct answer to this question. Revelation Breathwork is a very effective tool that allows a person to release mental and emotional stress, as well as connect to their spiritual authentic self.

Each Revelation Breathwork session is different because we are different each time we engage in the practice. Therefore, we recommend that you do Revelation Breathwork regularly. I say ‘regularly’ and not ‘whenever you need it,’ because in my experience as a life coach most people set aside their self-care practices when they need them the most (i.e., they are highly stressed or too busy). If you establish a regular practice of 1 or 2x per week, you’ll be supported through the ups and downs of daily living.

There have been times where I’ve done Revelation Breathwork multiple times in a day; once a day for several days in a row; and once a week. I find that when I don’t practice at least once a week, I notice the difference in my mood and energy. If you think of Revelation Breathwork as an energetic detox and recharge, it makes sense to do it regularly. Just like brushing your teeth.

+ How long should I do Revelation Breathwork when I'm alone?

Again, there is no single correct answer. We’ve experienced positive results from as little as 7 minutes. We’ve also done sessions where we’re breathing for an hour. In our public group classes, we engage in active breathing for about 23-28 minutes. We follow this up with 12-15 minutes of restful breathing.

Start simple. Find a 7-10 minute music track (or tracks) and then add about 3 minutes of rest afterward. That’s only 10 minutes out of your day to center and care for yourself.

+ Are there any reasons I shouldn’t participate in Revelation Breathwork?

Revelation Breathwork sometimes results in intense physical and emotional release. Therefore, it is not advised for persons with a history of cardiovascular disease, including angina or heart attack, high blood pressure, glaucoma, retinal detachment, osteoporosis, significant recent physical injuries, or surgery.

Revelation Breathwork is not advised for persons with severe mental illness or seizure disorders or for persons using major medications. It is also unsuitable for anyone with a personal or family history of aneurysms. Pregnant women are advised against practicing Revelation Breathwork due to the potential for oxygen levels in the blood to shift. While we have never had an issue in our classes, we take zero risks and advise all pregnant women to refrain from this practice. Persons with asthma should have their inhaler close by just in case and consult with their primary care physician. Persons with infectious or communicable diseases or COVID should avoid this practice until they are feeling well and claered by their health practitioner.

This work is deeply experiential. It may involve intense and energetic emotional release. Revelation Breathwork work does not substitute for psychotherapy, but it can significantly deepen and enhance psychotherapy and other healing and personal growth efforts.
