The emotional benefits of breathwork

About Breathwork

I am a passionate breathwork facilitator. How we breathe determines our inner state which has a direct impact on our stress levels, physical & emotional health and overall wellbeing.

I teach people how to breathe to reduce stress, increase energy and create balance in their lives. I do this on a 1 to 1 basis and in groups. I regularly run courses to introduce you to many different breathing techniques to enable you to reduce your overwhelm & stress and feel more vibrant.

I am a Conscious Connected Breathwork facilitator. I am deeply passionate about CCB as it can bring deep healing and calmness to your busy mind.

Learn to breathe for better health both physically and mentally.

How you breathe has a direct impact on your nervous system. By learning how to use your breath to connect to what your body needs to increase your window of tolerance means you create a greater resilience in your life and learn to respond rather than react.

As a trauma-informed therapist, I bring my wealth of knowledge to the sessions creating a welcoming and calm environment for everyone.

Functional Breathwork

Functional breathwork is a gentle, everyday tool to help regulate your nervous system, reduce anxiety, and bring balance in the face of life’s challenges. It’s designed for use in real-world situations — whether you're navigating a tough day at work, managing stress, or simply seeking to feel more grounded.

These practices teach you how to breathe in a way that supports health, calmness, and resilience. By tuning into your breath, you can influence how your body responds to stress, helping you return to a state of steadiness and clarity, even when everything around you feels chaotic.

Conscious Connected Breathwork

Conscious connected breathwork is a deeper, therapeutic practice. This powerful technique uses a continuous, circular breath — with no pauses between the inhale and exhale — to gently open the body and nervous system.

This form of breathwork creates space to access what may be hidden beneath the surface: unprocessed emotions, old belief patterns, or deeper layers of inner wisdom. It's an opportunity to move beyond the thinking mind and into a more intuitive connection with yourself. People often experience emotional release, clarity, and transformation through this work.

  • "Over the past few years, Giselle has supported our school in our mental well-being project. The parent workshop on helping a worried child and the staff INSET on mental well-being were full of great advice and techniques for parents and school staff. The children really enjoyed learning tips and strategies for mindfulness and relaxation, which they use at home and school. Giselle has a wealth of knowledge and a lovely way with both children and adults."
