SOMA Breath — Why I Became an Instructor

And Where It’s Taken Me Since

Why SOMA?

It all started in Guatemala. I was introduced to this wonderful technique by a man who only had time for a short 20-minute session but that was all it took. My whole physical reality dissolved as I asked myself the question — what was that?

Unlike my other experiences where everything dissolves (mostly on psychedelics), I often felt very ungrounded. That morning, however, as my whole physical reality was dissolving, I was embodied in the dissolution. So much so that the question of what was that? Was known as both myself and something far greater than I could ever be.

From that point onwards I explored the different levels of training that SOMA Breath has to offer through their 21 Day Awakening Program and then up to becoming a SOMA Breath Facilitator. Since then I have come to share that same 20-minute session with others along with many other heart-opening journeys thereafter.

That was 3 years ago now and I’m as excited to write about SOMA Breath, to share it with others, and to continue to guide others and breathe with this incredible technique as much as I was back then.
