Holotropic Breathwork®
With Janet Kingsley and Mike Deal
August 13 - 16, 2026
Holotropic Breathwork® is a rich and potent tool for the exploration and understanding of personal consciousness.Using the breath and evocative music, the workshop group creates a supportive space where participants can access expanded states of awareness and the Inner Healer, the innate healing wisdom of consciousness within each of us.During the workshop, participants have the opportunity to be both a breather and a sitter. While breathing, participants may have sensory, biographical, perinatal, or transpersonal experiences that provide opportunities to address unfinished business from the past, traumatic events, cycles of birth/death/rebirth, or a variety of encounters with the inner and outer worlds. As a sitter, participants will help create a safe, supportive container for their breather to journey within.GTT-certified facilitators and GTT apprentices in training will create a welcoming and safe retreat space and will be on hand to ensure safety and lend assistance as needed.
