how will i feel after?

everyone's different. some people feel light and clear, some feel tender, some feel tired in a good way. all of it is normal.

the power of this practice isn't in one perfect session, it's in the consistency, and in the way you learn to honor what your body is telling you and let that shape how you show up for your life.

after your session:

  • hydrate and nourish your body, breathwork can move a lot

  • give yourself space to process, without over-processing, you don't have to figure it all out today

  • try to hold off on big decisions right after a session, let things settle first

if you're in san diego, weekly in-person classes at the den (tuesdays) and indie yoga (thursdays) are a way to build that consistency in person. and if you want more sustained, personalized support, 1:1 work with shannon is where the real depth happens.

what is breathwork, really? ::

what is breathwork, really? ::

breathwork is a somatic practice that uses conscious, connected breathing patterns to shift your nervous system state, often accessing emotion, memory, or release that talk therapy alone doesn't reach. it's not meditation (meditation tends to be about stillness and observation; breathwork is active and often moves a lot through the body).

it's normal to shake, cry, laugh, or feel emotional during a session. it's also normal to feel nothing dramatic at all. there's no "right" way to breathe.

sessions are trauma-informed and facilitated by shannon cury, GPBA-certified with 400 hours of trauma-informed breathwork training and a 200-hour trauma-informed yoga certification. this isn't about being "fixed" in one hour, it's about practicing what it feels like to come back to your body, regularly, with other people doing the same.

mini FAQ

  • nope. camera on or off, whatever feels right for you that day. no pressure either way.

  • the recording and that month's session playlist get sent out afterward, so you don't have to be there live to get the reset.

  • no. this is built for first-timers and regulars alike.

  • no one is turned away for lack of funds. reach out and we'll figure it out.

  • breathwork isn't recommended for everyone. if you're pregnant, have a heart condition, high blood pressure, a respiratory condition like severe asthma, a history of seizures, glaucoma or retinal issues, or a history of psychosis, check with your doctor before joining, and let shannon know beforehand. you're always in control of your own breath in session, you can slow down, pause, or come back to natural breathing at any point.

  • you don't have to push into anything. diaphragmatic breathing (slow belly breaths) and box breathing (inhale, hold, exhale, hold, all for equal counts) are two grounding practices you can drop into anytime during the session if the active breath feels like too much, or use beforehand to help you arrive.

  • no, the monthly reset is virtual and open to anyone, anywhere. the weekly classes are in-person in san diego (the den on tuesdays, indie yoga on thursdays).
