... it started when Marta & Dominik met during their Alchemy of Breath facilitator training. The seed was planted. Then Dina & Dominik opened Wild Oasis retreat center in South Portugal and the soil was ready. The three hosted the first Immersion in 2022. Since then 70 people joined Breath Immersion during 5 retreats.

BREATH IMMERSION AT TIERRA COSMICA
Malaga, Spain 6-11th April 2024
We finished another wonderful, deep journey in Andalusia in April. 13 curious and courageous souls answered their call to join us. What a beautiful and divers group. We had someone coming back for the 3rd time, people completely new to breathwork, a family with 3 months year old baby and grandmother. Check out what they have to say about their experience.
We are grateful for being able to do this work and continue to be impressed and inspired by the medicine of the breath.

I benefited immensely from the experience. This immersion is much more than breathwork.

THE MEDICINE OF CONNECTION

A journey towards authentic human connection
And being witnessed and to witness each others emotions at the same time has this incredible healing potential to bring us together as humans.
Authenticity leads to connection which leads to safety
"It was a beautiful journey and I felt held by the facilitators and the other participants. Within a short time there was a huge connection between all of us and I was therefore able to work on my very own trust. Towards others and also towards myself."
Laila (Apr 2023)
Participants like the sense of community
"A gathering of warm soulful people, a sense of community, with a great vibe, in beautiful nature."
Gil (Apr 2022)
Promise: you will leave with one new friend (at least)
"One highlight was all the kind words and star filled eyes I have met here. I met people here who really wish the best for me even though we just came together this week."
Jason (Apr 2022)
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do you need any previous experience to participate?
No, you don't. We have participants that had never done breathwork before and had a very deep and meaningful experience.
What is conscious connected breathwork (CCB)?
Breathwork is a therapeutic technique that uses simple breathing practices to lead people into a non-ordinary state of consciousness where unconscious and previously repressed thoughts, sensations, energies and emotions, that are held in the body, can more easily rise to the surface for integration.
CCB is a breathing technique in which the breather intentionally connects the inhale with the exhale without any pauses, commonly practiced through the mouth. During a breathwork session, the facilitator guides the breather through a journey, accompanied by music, guidance and touch (if wished).
What are the contraindications for this type of breathwork?
This work is powerful and will move things within you - physiologically, emotionally and energetically. Therefore it is not advised for people with any of these contraindications.
If any of these health conditions apply to you, you should speak with your doctor prior to practicing:
-
Cardiovascular or heart disease
-
Detached retina or glaucoma
-
Diagnosed brain or abdomen aneurysm
-
Epilepsy
-
Diagnosed mental healt issues (e.g. bipolar or schizophrenia)
-
Uncontrolled diabetes or thyroid conditions
-
High blood pressure
-
Recent surgeries
-
Pregnancy - especially 1st and 3rd trimester
If in doubt, please get in touch with us.
Why is it called an immersion?
We call this offering an immersion not a retreat and here is why:
The word to “retreat” literally means to withdraw, to go away, to not do something.
And what we offer is the opposite.
-
We dont go away, we come towards.
-
We dont withdraw, we take full responsibility.
-
We dont escape life, we face life.
-
We dont relax, we work.
-
We dont retreat, we immerse.
The overall promise is not to get away from your life, find a peaceful time in nature for yourself and come back rejuvenated.
The invitation is to come if you hear the call to meet yourself in a safe yet intense container where everyday you have an opportunity to challenge and meet another part of yourself and continue to deepen the connection. Once it is done, you will probably need a day or two to integrate and rest.
It is a special blend of ancient and modern rituals & practices, inspired by different traditions from east to west that come to support the work and to feed the daily themes of connection to self, to others, to nature and to all that is. All on the solid foundation and strong potency of conscious connected breathwork as a tool for self liberation and growth.
Let's immerse in the beauty of life together.
What are the benefits of breathwork?
Breathwork offers many benefits. It can nurture the ability to manage stress, improve sleep, relieve physical discomforts, increase self-compassion, release limiting beliefs, access inner wisdom, make new connections, gain new perspectives and reach clarity. Main benefits can include:
🎈 reduce stress, worry and mental rumination
🎈 alleviate anxiety, insomnia and depression
🎈 support the resolution and integration of traumatic energy and fear
🎈 reduce self sabotage, brain fog, lethargy
🎈 support emotional release
🌱 balance energy and enhance vitality
🌱 support nervous system regulation and the resilience to meet the experiences of life
🌱 promote mental clarity
🌱 expand awareness and open new pathways of seeing and understanding
🌱 connect us to our intuition, our wisdom and our peace
It can bring significant improvements in mood, anxiety, sleep, and dysfunctional thought and behavior patterns. In the context of grief, trauma, and PTSD, Breathwork offers a safe container in which to experience, process, and ultimately release traumatic or difficult memories stuck in the body, through the body. Increased level of presence, shifts in perspective and release of trapped memories and emotions, all lead to a dramatic reduction of stress and anxiety levels.
Breathwork help develop neuroplasticity is the brain’s ability to develop new neural pathways to reorganise itself. By changing the way we breathe, we can change the way we think, act and behave through strengthening a new pathway.
Finally, Breathwork helps is by toning the vagus nerve. With repeated practice, your parasympathetic system becomes strengthened and sympathetic activation becomes less frequent, leading to an inner calm and increased resilience. Every breathwork widens our window of tolerance for our nervous system to gradually hold more and more charge.
