the tribe has spoken

Community breathwork with collectively well was my first introduction to breathwork and WOW. It was way more powerful than I could have expected. The experience was deeply intense and cathartic. It brought to the surface lots of big emotions I'd been suppressing. Shannon's gentle nature ensured I felt safe and supported during this emotional release. As a psychiatrist, I had some sense of the power of breath techniques for managing emotions, but something happens during breathwork that is beyond my grasp of the science behind it. I plan to recommend this to my loved ones as well as my patients going forward as another tool for wellness.

The community breathwork session I joined with collectively well was a beautiful and life changing experience. The curiosity of doing something I have never done paired with a longing for community thrusted me into a beautiful and life changing experience. Shannon’s intention, experience, and ability to educate provides not only for a safe, but brave environment to connect with self and others. Through her techniques and guidance I was able to really experience and embrace the depths of what my body could with just the expansion and focus on my breathing. I got to laugh, cry, praise God and release the things that no longer served me while also making room for newness! Shannon really knows how to hold the space necessary for this work and empower folx to know thay we are in control and can instill the change we need with in ourselves.

Hannah
Community breathwork with collectively well has been so powerful for me. Shannon's guidance has a way of commanding the body's attention. Breathwork was different than any yoga or meditation class I've never done. It's deeply relaxing, but what surprised me is the therapeutic component. Shannon gives you the power to soothe yourself and open up just by guiding your breath and learning to listen to your body. I think everyone can benefit from breathwork especially busy or burnout individuals that need self-care and self-love healing.
