WHAT IS BREATHWORK
Breathwork is the conscious, intentional use of breathing to shift your state—emotionally, mentally, physically, and energetically.
Breathwork bypasses the thinking mind and operates on direct pathways to the body's wisdom. Stored emotions, unprocessed experiences, and patterns that have been held in the nervous system for years can begin to surface—not through analysis, but through deep connection with the physical self.
MORE ABOUT BREATHWORK
What happens in a session?
During a session, you use specific breath patterns or holds while seated or lying comfortably. Similar to guided meditation, music and vocal cues guide the experience. Emotions, sensations, or memories may arise—there's no right way to experience it. Each session is different, and each person will experience each session in their own unique way.
Why does it work?
Your breath is the only involuntary system you can consciously control. When you breathe in patterns, you directly stimulate the Vagus nerve—the main regulator of your nervous system. You are literally changing your biochemistry with your breath. Consistent practice changes the relationship you have with your body and your breath.
What are the benefits?
Breathwork has myriad mental, physical, and emotional benefits. It helps release stored stress and trauma, creates more emotional balance, and builds physical resilience over time. It can improve sleep, nervous system regulation, physical performance, anxiety, and heart health indicators.
Consistent practice produces the most long-lasting benefits.
Is it safe?
While there are a list of contraindications, when facilitated by a trained, trauma-informed practitioner, breathwork is safe for most people. Pregnancy, retinal detachment, and certain cardiovascular conditions should be discussed ahead of time. If you have specific health concerns, reach out before joining.
ONE-ON-ONE BREATHWORK
For when you want individual, targeted support.
Whether in-person or online, we begin by setting the intention together—what you're carrying, what you're ready to release, what you want to meet.
Then, I tailor the experience to meet you where you are, whether your goals are rest and relaxation, moving heavy emotions like grief, shame, and anger, or gaining clarity on a specific issue in your life. Each session is different, and intuitively constructed to meet you where you are.

MICHELLE
"Since meeting Meagan and practicing breathwork weekly, my life has changed for the better! I’m more able to contain my emotions and feel them, process, in a more regulated manner. Her allowance for big emotions and the freedom to express them wildly and uninhibitedly has given my ADHD brain the permission to love breathwork and, specifically guided by Meagan, the experience is unique every time!"
JUDY
"I have been participating in the weekly breathwork calls since January. I joined to help me deal with stress at work, home and a consistently low heart variability. It has helped me tremendously. My HRV has gone from the teens to the high twenties and my sleep has improved as well. I now know how to step away and breathe when stressed at work."
JANE
"Meagan is intuitive, authentic, and highly skilled. Whether guiding breathwork or offering Reiki, she creates a space that feels safe, intentional, and deeply attuned to what each person needs in the moment. Several of the women at the retreat were long-time clients of Meagan’s, and hearing how profoundly she has supported their healing set the tone even before I experienced her work firsthand."
FAQ
What is breathwork, and how does it work?
Breathwork uses specific, conscious breathing patterns to shift your nervous system state. It gives you access to parts of your nervous system that talking alone can't reach, which is why people often feel real emotional release during a session. With consistent practice, breathwork can expand your window of tolerance for stress, improve your sleep, and provide myriad other health benefits.
Is breathwork safe? Who shouldn't do it?
Breathwork is generally safe, but if you're pregnant, have a cardiovascular condition, epilepsy, retinal detachment, or certain respiratory conditions, please talk to me before joining a session so we can adjust or determine if it's appropriate.
Do I need experience with breathwork to join a session?
No. Every session is built to meet you wherever you're starting from, whether this is your first time or your fiftieth. And every session is delivered through a trauma-informed lens, meaning, there’s no right way to do it—the point is not to perform, but to find and do what feels best in your system.
Can breathwork help with anxiety or nervous system regulation specifically?
Yes—breathwork is one of the most direct tools for nervous system regulation, since breath is one of the few autonomic functions you can consciously influence to shift your state. One session will help you feel lighter and more calm. With practice, you’ll build a safer connection with yourself and expand your system’s tolerance for stress.
How often should I do breathwork?
There's no fixed rule—some clients do a weekly live session as a consistent practice, others use it during specific periods of stress or transition. I personally have breathed in meditative sessions at least weekly for nearly two years, and that’s a cadence that works well for me.
ON A PERSONAL NOTE
Breathwork has been one of the most powerful tools in my healing.
Breathwork found me right as my marriage was unraveling and it got me through my father’s cancer diagnosis and death just a few months later.
Breathwork, with attuned facilitators, gave me space to grieve, process my anger, and rebuild a relationship with my body I didn't even know was available to me when I began.
Now, after years of consistent practice, I've learned how to feel, listen, and respond to my needs instead of pushing through or shutting down. I am more regulated, present, and more able to cope when fear and grief do show up.
Breath sessions with me are intuitive, collaborative, and trauma-informed, creating a space that meets you exactly where you are and supports what your body is ready to release or integrate.
