Summary

CONSCIOUSNESS-EXPANDING BREATHING - EXTRAORDINARY STATES

Breathe your way into deeper layers of consciousness and set what has become stagnant in motion.
Use ancient, time-tested breathing techniques to enter an expanded state of consciousness.

In an expanded state of consciousness, you can:

♦ explore your inner depths, e.g., discover what truly matters to you,
♦ recognize and leave behind limiting beliefs and patterns of behavior,
♦ integrate unresolved elements from your life story,
♦ discover ways to expand your scope of action. As soon as you can view things from a different perspective, new horizons and new worlds open up to you,
♦ connect with your inner wisdom, which is a reliable guide through your life,
♦ connect with your inner power for change,
♦ have spiritual experiences,
♦ encounter birth and death

Here, liberating experiences are possible that have the potential to fundamentally and sustainably transform your self-image and your attitude toward life in a positive way, leading you to greater inner freedom and joy of life.
Get in touch with your deepest emotions. Be ready to push your boundaries.

EXPERIENCE ECSTASY – EXPERIENCE MOMENTS OF HAPPINESS

Intensive breathing sessions are suitable for you

♦ if you feel disconnected from your emotions and your body awareness,

Welcome!

♥ The seminar begins at 5:00 p.m. on the first day and ends at approximately 1:00 p.m. on the last day.
♥ We recommend that you disconnect from the internet for the duration of the seminar.
♥ We will be an exclusive small group of no more than 14 participants.
This creates an atmosphere where you can easily feel at ease, open up, and try new things. Through mindful interactions with the other participants, a deep sense of connection quickly develops. A trusting and supportive group environment is very important to us.

You can expect a holistic and intensive program that has the potential to set the ball rolling for a fundamental improvement in your life.
In a safe and caring environment, you will encounter a variety of powerful methods that have already helped countless people. Prepare yourself to feel deeply.

♥ Our program begins daily at 7:30 a.m. and lasts until approximately 9:00 p.m., with many breaks—including some longer ones—scheduled throughout.
♥ On Saturday, you will have a breathing session within the group, during which another seminar participant will guide you. This session lasts approximately 2 hours.
♥ You will also accompany a breathing partner during her breathing experience and support her with your presence. Through this, you will definitely learn more about yourself.
♥ Body-centered exercises, active and silent meditations, rituals, conversations, and painting prepare the ground for a deeply immersive breathing session and support the integration of your experiences.

A typical seminar day might look like this:
7:30 AM: Active meditation
8:30 AM: Breakfast break
9:30 AM: Preparatory exercises
10:30 AM: First breathing session (you breathe)
12:30 PM: Lunch break

9:00 PM: End of the day

On Sunday morning, the focus is on processing what you’ve experienced, integrating it, and applying it to your daily life. The program ends around noon.

Your breath is the most powerful tool you can find to release emotions that are stuck or stored in your nervous system and body. It helps you develop your self-confidence and self-love in ways you never thought possible.

We are Martina Wedenik from the Breath and Meditation Center in Villach and Heike Wilken from LifeIsCalling in Reichenfels—two empathetic, open-hearted breath enthusiasts who are constantly learning.

Our mission is to accompany you on your journey toward greater inner freedom, helping you find new lightness, vitality, and joy in everyday life.
In doing so, we focus on:
♥ a respectful and empathetic atmosphere
♥ a well-thought-out and flexible structure for our seminars and retreats
♥ carefully selected locations.

What sets us apart:

♥Small, exclusive group: To be able to respond individually to you and your needs, we offer our retreats for a maximum of 14 participants.
♥Integrating the experience: Integrating what you’ve experienced is particularly important to us. We support you in anchoring what you’ve learned in your life.
♥A lighthearted atmosphere: We bring a wealth of experience and expertise—and above all, humor. The path to new vitality can also be light and joyful.

We look forward to welcoming you!
