Nothing. No experience is needed for this work. It is open to everyone.

A question I hear a lot

Many people come to me curious about Rebirthing. Some confuse it with meditation or with a kind of yoga. Others think they need to be very "zen", or to know something special, before they can try it. So here are a few clear answers.

What Rebirthing is

Rebirthing is not yoga, and it is not meditation. They are different things.

I would sum it up like this: Rebirthing is choosing to keep breathing in a conscious, connected way, with someone guiding you the whole time. It uses the energy of the breath (in yoga it's called prana) to wake up the body and reconnect you with the wisdom that comes from within, from the heart.

It's a good chance to find in yourself the answers you've been looking for outside.

Coming back to the present

Many of us live outside ourselves: the mind replaying the past and worrying about the future. The connected breath brings you back to the present moment.

As the breath keeps flowing and the energy in the body grows, you may let go of fears, sadness, worry, hurt, limits and anxiety, sometimes things you never even noticed you were carrying.

With fewer blocks, the senses open up. You can see beyond the narrow view of everyday life, with a deep sense of wellbeing and of connection to who you really are.

What people tell me they take home

More creative and healthy thoughts.

Their self-esteem and their joy of living back.

Determination to make decisions.

More energy in the body.

Old patterns of behaviour that stop running the show.

How a workshop goes

Our group Rebirthing workshop takes about 2 hours, in four parts: an opening talk about the work, the breathing journey, integration, and a sharing circle (optional, but I suggest it).

You lie down, you breathe, and you're guided all the way. You don't need to know anything before you come. Just bring yourself and something comfortable to lie on.

Your first step
