Rebirthing

REBIRTHING was developed by Leonard Orr out of old yogi-practices. Stanislav Grof developed a similar therapeutic way of breathing and called it HOLOTROPIC BREATHING. The effects are the same..

By intense, ongoing breathing (through the nose preferentially) high in the chest in the beginning, the conditions of ‘hyperventilation’ are created by the chemical reaction of the blood, and deeper, unconscious layers can be opened, giving an outlet to blocked emotions and (past) life-traumas…  

Everything in a human being tends to harmony… this is the reason that a person will always search for occasions to free him/herself from old traumatic blockages. Liberation and harmonization can only happen when the person consciously integrates the feelings, emotions and images related to the past trauma.
New freedom, as a result of the integration of this conscious process,  is the base for a more harmonious way of being. We all – and specially medical professionals – should understand that the body is wise and that it can create stressful conditions (‘hyperventilation’, 'inner voices', etc.) in order to urge the person to free him/herself from old, blocking life-memories and -patterns..

This process needs the presence of a very experienced compassionate practitioner, because the sometimes very emotional reactions of the breather need to be met with calm presence and understanding.

LOUISE LOVES TO GIVE AN INTENSIVE REBIRTH-TRAINING TO MOTIVATED STUDENTS..  

SOME UNDERSTANDING OF THE PROCESS SHOULD ALREADY BE ACQUIRED IN WEEKEND-WORKSHOPS.. 

BEING ''WELL GROUNDED' IS A MUST!!

Stanislav Grof’s book 'holotropic breathwork' gives all the important information and is the best and most extensive book about intensive, therapeutic breathwork.
