Learn about our relationship with trees and experience the power of breath in this one day workshop at Kadoorie Centre.
In this special event, Energy of Nature teacher Claire Elouard will combine with Breath of Bliss™ facilitator Andrew McAulay to guide participants through an exploration of multiple dimensions of our relationship with the plant world. The day will begin with a talk and guided walk, and progress through experiential exercises, culminating in a powerful breathwork ceremony.

About Breath of Bliss™
Breath of Bliss™ is a transformational practice that infuses you with aliveness using breath, movement and sound. Benefits include integration of blocked energy/emotions, access to the unconscious mind to shed limiting beliefs and patterns, greater feelings of compassion and connection to yourself and others, and expanded states of consciousness.
Andrew began exploring breathwork as part of a journey of healing from cancer and became a Breathwork Facilitator in 2017.
