What Happens in an Online Breathwork Session? Everything You Need to Know

Updated: Feb 17



What happens in an online breathwork journey if you decide to breathe with me?


If it is your first time breathing with me you will get an 18-minute introduction video on the technique we use, on how to set up the space and prepare yourself. You will only need to watch this video once.


Every session has a different topic and the breathing is always accompanied by a different playlist which matches the session topic.


The structure of my online breathwork sessions

Every session will have an invitation for a different topic to reflect on and work with. There might be a short impulse talk in the beginning or some form of exercise (embodiment, journaling) or a meditation or visualization – always depending on the topic. The breathwork itself is around 45 minutes long with a 10 minute relaxation/integration phase after.


  1. Diving into the topic of the session: I will first talk about the focus/topic of the session and give some impulses. sometimes we will do a short embodiment exercise or meditation or some journaling/reflecting.

  2. The online breathwork journey: A 45-minute breathwork journey with music which slowly builds and works towards a peak and then gets slower again. I will be guiding you through every step of the process while keeping it really open at the same time on how intense you want this journey to be. All my prompts are always invitations so you can take what you want and ignore the rest.

  3. Final relaxation: A 10-minute final relaxation and integration time (similar to Savasana in yoga)

  4. Integration & closing the session: grounding you back in the space, post-care instructions, time to ask questions or share your experience if you wish

What can I expect to happen in a breathwork session?

The experience can be so different from session to session and breather to breather. I went quite deep into explaining what to expect from a breathwork session in this article.


What actually is breathwork?

There are many different style and approaches of breathwork but the sessions which i am currently talking about are Holosomatic breathwork, which uses a breathing technique called Conscious Connected Breathwork, sometimes fused with other breathwork techniques. I explain more about what breathwork is in this article.


Frequently asked questions around the online breathwork sessions


It is my first time joining a session and I'm a bit afraid to do it online – is this the right setting for me?

First of all, if you feel curious but a little nervous it's completely normal.

1. If none of the contraindications apply to you [https://www.spark-your-fire.com/contraindications] , you are safe to join my breathwork sessions. 2. You will get an in-depth introduction video (18 minutes) upon booking which explains EVERYTHING into small detail you need to know, from how we will breathe to how to set up your space. Everything you need to know is being explained in there. 3. If there are any questions left after the video feel free to email me before the session. 4. While it might feel a bit weird being at home in your own space at first, especially if you have heard of these transformational breathwork sessions from others, I want you to know this: you are always in control of your breath and I will create a safe container for you to breathe. All the guidance I give is an invitation so you can always decide whether you want to follow it or not. The beautiful thing about the breath is you can always regulate your experience to what you need that day – you can intensify it or soften it by using your breath in specific ways.

5. In general you will always go as deep as you are ready to go with your breath. So don't be afraid that things will come up you won't be able to handle. Usually the first session is a first "getting to know each other" with the breath and the more you practice, the deeper you go – think of it as peeling an onion and layer by layer, session by session, the more you trust yourself and your breath and ready to open up, you go deeper and deeper.

I'm uncertain whether doing it at home is the right place to go into this experience?
