Metta Breathwork is a unique, heart-centered breathwork practice rooted in the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda. Unlike many modern breathwork methods that use the same technique for everyone or focus mainly on intensity, Metta Breathwork is individualized breathing techniques and based on decades of experience in pranayama, Ayurveda, and mind development.
THE METTA WORKSHOP STANDS ON 3 PILLARS:
AYURVEDA: The three life forces in a human Body & Mind (As per the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda health science) Vata (air), Pitta (fire), and Kapha (earth) and conscious breathing tailored to each participant’s dominating force.
METTA: A heart opening experience through the practice of Metta, the loving-kindness and inner connection, focusing on self love and self realisation.
PRANA: Channelizing Prana, the life energy in the subtile body to balance the frequency which helps the practitioner to eliminate stress, anxiety and recurring sadness. By using intentional breathing techniques through a carefully curated musical journey, participants are guided to experience the natural flow of life energy throughout the system.
