👋 Meaningful Connection — you’ll get to spend quality time with a small group of exceptional humans who are
👀 Embodied Self-Exploration — expand your capacity to embrace intensity and welcome the full spectrum of emotions.

🫁 Nervous System Reset — through the daily breathwork, meditation, sauna and time in nature you’ll feel fully rejuvenated by Sunday.
What is Facilitated Breath Re-patterning (FBR)?
During the group FBR breathwork sessions, the associated shifts in our blood chemistry increase our access to stored our subconscious patterns that hold us back or lead to burnout.
Emerging research is suggesting certain breathing rhythms correspond to buffered emotional responses, but through intentional set + setting, these can be safely released and completed.
On the other side, it’s common to feel a deep sense of joy, connection to ourselves and even awe at the world.
In addition: during breathwork journeys our physiology goes into ‘respiratory alkalosis’, which is a state of heightened neuroplasticity — meaning that these nervous system changes stick around for the long term. Learn more about FBR here
What to Expect
🫁 4x FBR Breathwork Journeys — there are few more potent modalities than collective breathwork journeys for unearthing unconconscious material and creating the conditions for personal breakthroughs.
🔥 Daily Sauna x Cold Plunge — contrast therapy is wonderful for both priming our state in the morning, and unwinding and integrating in the evening before dinner.
🥘 Nourishment & Attunement — morning yoga and meditation, incredibly healthy food, laughter, and a pristine setting in the Sierra Foothills.
📝 Downtime for Reflection — we promise not to over-schedule and allow plenty of spaciousness for integration, reflection and connection with others.
“After my first guided breathwork journey with Jonny, I realise that I'm only just scratching the surface of what's possible with the breath and it's truly astounding. Highly, highly recommended.”
