Harmonic Breath: Online Breathwork and Live Music

The music is made live alongside the breathwork, moving through active practice, rest and reflection with the guidance rather than playing as a fixed soundtrack.

Bring your attention to the meeting of breath and live sound. Wael Shukha guides active, rhythmic breathing while Simon Raphael creates music in the moment, layering didgeridoo, classical guitar, handpan and percussion. This is a participatory practice that can be physically and emotionally intense.

Begin with 15 minutes of introduction and grounding, followed by an hour of guided breathwork with live music and 15 minutes of meditation and sharing. The breathing changes your usual rhythm; strong emotions, tingling or lightheadedness may arise. You can soften the breath, skip a breath hold, rest or stop at any time. If dizzy, overwhelmed or unwell, stop active breathing and return to comfortable natural breathing. No experience is required, but the practice is not gentle relaxation.

For adults 18+. Join Zoom about 15 minutes early; the link and preparation details arrive at your registration email. Prepare a private, uninterrupted space to lie down safely, with a mat or bed, pillow, blanket, eye covering, headphones and water. Position your device so you can be seen if possible. Avoid a heavy meal for about 90 minutes beforehand, alcohol and other mind-altering substances; leave quiet time afterwards.
