Open Arms Breathwork
The Full Story
Unlock the full potential of your breath and transform your health! Many of us only tap into a small fraction of our breathing capacity, which can lead to various health challenges. We often carry tension, trauma, and emotional baggage that create blockages, affecting our mental health, immune system, and lung capacity. By becoming more aware of our breath, we can harness its incredible power to enhance our overall wellbeing! In your initial session, you'll enjoy a brief consultation and breath analysis, where Rebecca will observe and discuss your goals. Then, get ready to embark on a rejuvenating breathing session, complete with tools for self-practice to elevate your physical performance, boost your confidence, and melt away stress and anxiety!

Professional Breathwork Coach


Hey, thanks for stopping by! Here's a little bit about why I chose Breath—or maybe it found me! I came across Breathwork many years ago while suffering from various issues related to trauma and stress. At the time, I didn't realize how powerful it was, and to be honest, I didn't pay much attention. I decided take the medication route along with self-medicating. Over time, I realized this just didn't work; the problems did not go away, and I still felt something was off. In 2019, just before COVID, I rediscovered Breathwork by attending a local one-day retreat, and that's when it happened! We did some CCB (Conscious Connected Breathwork), and the impact on my emotional state was profound. At the time, it felt a little scary as I was entering the unknown, and as someone who had previously suffered from depression, anxiety, and panic attacks (which I now know were culminated through trauma over time), I was a little apprehensive! I also had Asthma at the time too which I have now eradicated through breathwork, after 40 years of using an inhaler I started doing regular Breath practices and haven't used an inhaler since...
This was so powerful that the moment I arrived home that day, I knew it was something I just had to pursue. I immediately started looking for courses and retreats, trawling through YouTube to delve deeper into Breathwork. The more I looked, the more it started to make sense. Understanding the science behind the breath, what an ancient art it is, and the huge benefits it has for our well-being—mentally, physically, and emotionally—I just haven't looked back. Learning about how our nervous system behaves, how the breath has a direct relationship with our changing emotional and physical states, and the automatic responses our bodies have that impact our breath, as well as our learned breathing habits, which affect our well-being—it's all connected!
Becoming a professional practitioner and facilitator is one of the best things I've ever done because now I can pass this knowledge on to others, guide them to help themselves, and provide them with lifelong tools they'll never forget—and that's something!
I am dedicated to helping individuals harness the power of breath for emotional balance and self-awareness. After going through many adversities in life and experiencing what many of us do in this fast-paced world, I am bringing Breathwork not only to those interested in wellness and well-being but also to those who just need help coping with everyday stresses in life, in a simple, easy-to-understand, down-to-earth way.
"It's not about having the best Instagram images or so many followers, or everyone looking super fit and cool; it's what's inside and how we cope that is the most important goal in life! Once you learn the profound importance of the breath, you'll never look back..."
After many years of doing my own practice, I completed the Embody Breathwork instructor one-year deep dive course, along with training from Dan Brule and other well-established and recognized figures in the Breathwork world. I am dedicated to passing on my knowledge and the experience that Breathwork brings.

My Mission
"Letting Go" is a term frequently used in Breathwork, as it perfectly encapsulates the experience. Engaging in breath practices empowers you with the tools to release stress, suppressed emotions, tension, self-doubt, shame, trauma, and all the negative energy we accumulate throughout life. Our bodies often harbor various forms of stress, and our nervous systems can be out of balance. My mission is to share this knowledge in a simple, accessible way, helping to rebalance the nervous system and reduce the negative energy stored in our bodies.
Get ready for an exciting journey of self-discovery and relaxation! Here, you'll harness the incredible power of your breath—no special equipment or location needed! Join me for a transformative experience where we’ll fully immerse ourselves in the present moment and release stress. Together, we’ll rejuvenate your body and mind, leaving you feeling refreshed and appreciative of the amazing things your body accomplishes every day!

Educate
I envision a world where Breathwork is an exciting part of our daily routines! Imagine health authorities harnessing the incredible power of breath and integrating it into our culture. By teaching our children the significance of breathing, we can create a healthier society and foster a more balanced way of life for everyone.
Let's make this vision a reality!
