FAQs
Here, we address key questions about our offerings, guiding you to select the perfect session and prepare for an exceptional experience.
What exactly is breathwork?
Breathwork is a guided practice that uses specific breathing techniques to reduce stress, process emotions, and support overall well-being. By consciously changing the rhythm and depth of your breath, you can experience relaxation, clarity, and balance.
I often work with Conscious Connected Breathing - a gentle but powerful technique where the breath flows continuously without pauses. This style of breathing can help release tension, shift stuck energy, and create a deeper connection with yourself.
What is ThetaHealing®?
ThetaHealing® is a holistic technique that uses meditation to access the theta brainwave state - a deeply relaxed place where the subconscious mind becomes more open and receptive. From this space, we can work to identify and release limiting beliefs, clear emotional patterns, and support the body’s natural ability to heal.
Many people find ThetaHealing® helps them experience greater clarity, improved well-being, and personal transformation in both mind and body.
Why follow the moon?
The moon moves through different phases - new, waxing, full, and waning - each carrying its own energy. By aligning our practices with these natural rhythms, we can harness their unique qualities to support our own cycles of growth and renewal.
New Moon - a time for fresh starts and intention-setting
Waxing Moon - energy for action and momentum
Full Moon - illumination, clarity, and release
Waning Moon - reflection, rest, and letting go
Working with the moon helps you live and create more intentionally, staying connected to both nature and your personal goals.
What do I bring to a session?
In the studio:
A pillow and blanket are provided
You may wish to bring an extra pillow or blanket for added comfort
A bottle of water
A journal and pen for any reflections afterwards
Most importantly, an open mind and a willingness to connect with yourself

A quiet, private space where you won’t be disturbed
A comfortable spot to lie down (bed, sofa, or yoga mat if you prefer)
A blanket and pillow for support
Headphones for the best sound quality
A bottle of water
A journal and pen for afterwards
What shall I wear to a session?
Wear something loose, comfortable, and easy to move and breathe in. Think soft clothing like leggings, joggers, or relaxed layers. Avoid anything too tight around the waist or chest.
You may also like to bring warm socks or an extra layer, as your body temperature can drop slightly during deep relaxation.
Is breathwork suitable for everyone?
Breathwork is safe for most people, but it may not be suitable if you have certain health conditions, including:
Severe heart or cardiovascular issues
Uncontrolled high blood pressure
Epilepsy or seizure disorders
Glaucoma or retinal detachment
Recent surgery or major injury
Pregnancy (unless adapted)
Severe psychiatric conditions
If you’re unsure, please consult your doctor before joining a session.
What is a cacao ceremony?
A cacao ceremony is a guided practice using ceremonial-grade cacao - a pure form of cacao prepared as a warm, heart-opening drink. Cacao has been used for centuries in indigenous traditions as a sacred plant medicine to support connection, clarity, and inner healing.
In ceremony, we come together in a safe, intentional space to slow down, set intentions, and open the heart. Alongside drinking cacao, the session may include meditation, breathwork, sharing, or gentle rituals that help you release what no longer serves and connect more deeply with yourself.
Many people leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and inspired.
How will I feel after a session?
Everyone’s experience is unique, but many people leave feeling:
Calm, lighter, and deeply relaxed
Clearer in mind and more connected to themselves
Energised and uplifted, with a sense of release
Sometimes breathwork or healing can also bring emotions to the surface. This is a natural part of the process and usually followed by a sense of clarity and renewal.
You’ll always be guided to take your time afterwards, ground yourself, and integrate the experience gently.
Before a session
Avoid heavy meals or alcohol beforehand
Arrive hydrated (bring water with you)
Wear loose, comfortable clothing
Come with an open mind and no expectations
Is ThetaHealing® suitable for everyone?
ThetaHealing® is a gentle practice, but it may not be suitable for everyone. It is not a replacement for medical treatment, and those with serious mental health conditions, epilepsy, or who are currently experiencing psychosis or delusional episodes should seek advice from a medical professional before taking part.
Always consult your healthcare provider if you are unsure whether ThetaHealing® is right for you..
Aftercare Tips

Is cacao safe for everyone?
Cacao is safe for most people, but as it is a natural stimulant, it may not be suitable if you:
Are pregnant or breastfeeding
Have a serious heart condition or high blood pressure
Take antidepressants (particularly MAOIs or SSRIs)
Are sensitive to caffeine or stimulants
If you’re unsure, it’s best to check with your healthcare provider before attending.
