And if you can't make it in person, there are 2 places remaining on tomorrow evening's online session at 7pm GMT / 2pm EST.
£15 | $20 USD | https://calendly.com/nicolemcgrath123/breathwork-immersion-closing-out-the-wood-snake
Come breathe with us. Honour what's been carried. Set down what's ready to go.

How many did you manage?

I'd heard this was a marker of your nervous system state and I had to test it. I've been obsessively testing it all week, truth be told! Once, easily. Twice, sometimes. Three times? Only when I was genuinely relaxed.

The science behind it is real. Swallowing is controlled by the vagus nerve and saliva production is driven by your parasympathetic nervous system. When you're active and focused, your sympathetic system is online. Less saliva, harder to swallow. Not a problem. Just your body doing its job.

The version of this that's been going around, frames it as something being wrong with you if you can't hit three.

I'd push back on that. It's not a verdict. It's a snapshot.

Try it now. Then take five slow breaths and try again.

Tell me in the comments, did anything change?

Join me for a deep immersion as we close out the Year of the Wood Snake 🐍

This Thursday and Sunday, we gather for our final breathwork sessions of the Wood Snake year. A space to pause, release and honour what you're setting down as we step into Horse energy.

These 90-minute sessions (15 minute breathing meditation + 50 minute breathwork + integration + optional sharing circle) aren't about forcing transformation. They're about creating space for the grief of letting go, for the exhale that comes before something new can arrive.

If you've been holding more than you need to carry into this next chapter, this is your invitation to put it down.

Online Sessions:
Thu 15th Feb, 7pm GMT / 2pm EST
Sun 15th Feb, 7pm GMT / 2pm EST
In-Person at VeryYoga Reigate Studio
Sun 15th Feb, 10:30am

It's been a year of holding a lot, collectively and personally. Right now, I feel that I'm in this strange liminal space where something wants to complete but I'm not quite there yet.

The Year of the Wood Snake ends on Feb 17th and one of its final lessons is learning how to let go. Not just mentally deciding to move on, but actually allowing our bodies to release what we've been carrying and are ready to set down.

When things die or are lost to us, we need space to grieve those losses, to allow grief to move through us rather than remaining trapped in our bodies. The lungs are one of the places where we process grief so it makes a lot of sense to invite the breath to support our grieving and letting go.

So, I've created space for this - a 90 minute breathwork immersion to soften into what's ready to be set down before Fire Horse energy arrives with it's fast moving momentum.

This isn't about forcing release or processing trauma. It's simpler: grief needs to move through the body. When we honour it, when we let it be fully felt, we deepen our capacity for compassion.

Never done breathwork? That's fine. It's fully guided. All you need is somewhere to lie down undisturbed for 90 minutes.

Rest is not laziness. How do we begin to not just hear what our bodies tell, but then trust the message and respond accordingly?

Every Monday evening, I'm here with breathwork you can actually use. The fascinating bits of neuroscience (without the overwhelm), one practical technique that works that same day and 30 minutes of guided regulation.

These are tools for real life, not just for perfect Instagram mornings!

Come as you are. I look forward to breathing with you.

Each energy center holds different aspects of the adoption experience:

🧡 Sacral: emotional processing
💛 Solar plexus: personal power
💚 Heart: attachment & belonging

We work through each systematically 🌈

07/08/2025

🔥 Your nervous system feels constantly 'on'
🔥 You've tried breathwork but left feeling MORE activated
🔥 You disconnect from your body when things get intense
🔥 You want healing but need it to feel SAFE
🔥 Traditional approaches feel too overwhelming

You're not broken. Your nervous system is actually doing its job - protecting you.
But what if healing didn't have to feel like drowning? What if you could build resilience gradually, at YOUR pace?

The Embodied Self is breathwork designed for sensitive, activated nervous systems. We build safety first, then slowly expand your capacity to feel and heal.

Early bird pricing ends August 21st - save £25! 🐦
