BREATHE IN PARIS
Le Centre Élément
“Breathwork for Burnout”
In-person - In French - All levels welcome!
I am so happy to see you at the Element Centre for another Breathe in Paris workshop. I love this place which is renowned for its holistic and energetic approach to healing the body, mind and soul. It was the first to open its doors to Breathe in Paris in October 2018.
THE WORKSHOP
During the first half of this 3-hour session, I will connect you to your breath while introducing the “theme of the day” and the four pillars of Breathe in Paris : meditation, Reiki, coaching and Breathwork. With humor and scientific facts, I will explain the Breathwork technique, what you can expect, and why it's so important to breathe correctly. The second half will be spent lying on your back with a mask covering your eyes (bring your own or buy one from me!) as I guide you through the Breathwork session based on the theme. This is when the volume of the music increases and the energy moves around the room. A single session is sometimes enough to create a significant change as Breathwork helps reduce anxiety and stress, better manage emotions, improve the digestive system and physical performance. Breathwork is purely experiential and no two sessions are alike. Be prepared to step out of your comfort zone and you just may emerge transformed. Please note that this class is for beginners and experts, but Breathwork is not recommended for certain people, see below.
THE THEME : “BREATHWORK FOR BURNOUT”
“Give up the delusion that burnout is the inevitable cost of success.” ~ Arianna Huffington
Are you feeling constantly fatigued, both physically and emotionally? Do you struggle to motivate yourself to do the things you once enjoyed? If you've been experiencing prolonged stress impacting your well-being, you might be facing burnout. Burnout, first identified by psychologist Herbert Freudenberger, results from prolonged work-related stress and affects all aspects of life. Symptoms include extreme exhaustion, cynicism, and a sense of ineffectiveness. It can happen to anyone, regardless of profession, due to prolonged and unmanageable stress. In this Breathe in Paris workshop, I’ll use journaling, meditation, Reiki, and Breathwork to explore your current state, both personally and professionally. We will address the root cause of burnout—chronic stress—and how the collision of work and personal pressures can lead to burnout. You’ll learn practical techniques to manage stress, recognize early signs, and implement strategies to balance work and self-care. Whether you're experiencing burnout, know someone who is, or want to prevent it, this workshop offers valuable insights and tools. I will guide you gently but confidently through the process, helping you use the power of your breath to find peace and restore your energy.
