Breathwork and Sound Ceremony
Sacred Ways’ Sound and Breath Ceremonies are journeys of individual and collective transformation; let thy breath be thy medicine and guide you to your innate wisdom within.
What to expect?
Conscious Energy Breathing (CEB) or Conscious Connected Breathwork is perhaps the most valuable self-healing ability that humans can learn. Subconscious, traumatic feelings and memories, and even our own birth can be made accessible through CEB therapy, hence it also known as Rebirthing. Conscious Energy Breathing enables us to move through energetic and physical blockages, and release everyday stress and tension; at the same time, it gives us more clarity, joy and vitality. This specific type of Breathwork is a natural healing ability we all have access to; this ability involves merging the inhale with the exhale in an intuitive way that floods the body with the cosmic energy of the source of all that is. Marc places great importance on a safe space in that you feel supported to take a journey to your deepest (highest) Self, accompanied by the healing properties of Sound and Rhythm, using your own breath in a most sacred way.
With its fundament in CEB, Marc has created the Naikando Method®, which incorporates elements of frequency and sound therapy. He has enriched the method with the use of tuning forks and vocal toning, the latter particularly when in deep meditative states. This innovative approach enhances the method’s capacity for self-healing.
