We Breathe.
In and Out.
Upwards of 25,000 times a day.

Yet, how many of those breaths are we actually conscious of?
Are we breathing our bodies, or are our bodies breathing us?
And what difference does it make, if it matters at all?

Join me, in-studio at Yoga Refuge, this February for

BREATHING THE MINDFUL BREATH: A Course in Conscious Breathwork

This winter embark on a journey to rediscover your breath.

Did you know that conscious breathing (that’s YOU breathing your body) can be an effective tool for nervous system regulation; promoting mental, emotional, and physical well-being?
 

Breath awareness and simple breathing techniques (pranayama) can support you:

• when you are fatigued or stressed

• with emotional regulation (anxiety and depression)

• and to increase focus and concentration

Integrating simple breathing techniques into your daily self-care routines can also support you in your quest to maintain healthy:

• heart rate variability (HRV)

• respiratory and cardiovascular function

• blood pressure regulation

• immune function

• circulation to your organs

• circulation of your lymphatic system

• digestion and elimination

“Heather created a Wonderful and Safe container for us throughout this retreat through her professionalism; value for the sacred; approach-ability; high regard for her beloved home Mexico and its inhabitants; her sense of vulnerability; her love of ritual and her excellent leadership skills. I can't wait to sign up for many more retreats with her in the future!!!”

“I attended Heather’s Yoga and Cultural Immersion retreat in March and it was incredible. The event was meaningfully thematic and her attention to every detail was impeccable. By the conclusion, the diverse group was knit together in a remarkable way. And, of course… the yoga was amazing.”

- B. Ditton, San Miguel de Allende: A Yoga and Cultural Immersion, March, 2022

“Heather’s amazing yoga retreat in San Miguel de Allende was everything I could have ever hoped for. Heather went above and beyond making everyone comfortable. Her classes were extremely supportive and fantastic. From the different excursions, the classes and the best meals, Heather was always there, ensuring that all our needs were met. I felt the staff made you feel at home, and amazing chefs created the the most delicious meals. I truly can’t say enough how much Heather was (as is) good for my heart and soul. A memory of a lifetime!”

- H. Unsworth, San Miguel de Allende: A Yoga and Cultural Immersion, March, 2022

“Between the Quality of the Yoga, The Beauty of Villa, The Soulfulness of the Food, The Spirit of Día De Muertos, The Kindness of the Citizens of Mexico my Heart is still filled with Gratitude. I so look forward to visiting again one day.”
