SOMA Breath — A Personal Experience

It’s Not Always Sexy, But It’s Real

Unlike other breathwork techniques, SOMA Breath has specifically designed brainwave music that’s designed to drop you into a deep meditative state. I didn’t know that at the time. All I heard was this deep basey frequency beating to a rhythm of a heart that both excited me and captivated me into a nervous anticipation.

I was in a home that I knew well, perched on the edge of a volcanic crater around beautiful Lake Atitlan in Guatemala so the stage was set after I felt safe and explorative.

I had done lots of breathwork before and loved it, especially during my Kundalini Yoga Instructor training course.

So I had a sense that I would share breathwork with others one day but of all the different techniques that I had been shown, none of them quite withstood the distance of time.

There was always something missing, even though I didn’t know what the missing part(s) were...

As soon as I heard the beating base-y frequencies that day, however, and the journey that’s followed since I knew I’d found the technique I was hoping for.
