Feeling the Weight of Depression? There's Hope, and it's Within Your Breath. 🌬️💙

ree

At SomaYama® BREATH, we understand that depression can feel like a heavy cloud, dimming your light and making everyday a struggle. We've been there ourselves. Our journey, like many of yours, was one of seeking, healing, and ultimately, discovering profound transformation through Somatic Breathwork.

Depression often holds onto us through stored emotions, tension, and unresolved trauma within our bodies. It’s not just "in your head"; your body remembers, and it holds the keys to release.

What if we told you that your own breath could be a powerful tool to lighten that load?

Somatic Breathwork isn't just about breathing deeply. It's a guided, therapeutic practice that creates a profound connection between your mind, body, and emotions. As Certified Practitioners and Teachers of the SomaYama® Trauma-Informed Somatic Breathwork method, we gently guide you to:


  • Release Stored Stress & Trauma: Access and gently release suppressed emotions and physical tension that contribute to feelings of depression, anxiety, and overwhelm. Research indicates that breathwork can significantly reduce self-reported stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms by influencing the autonomic nervous system and activating the parasympathetic (rest and digest) response. [1] [2] [3]


  • Promote Emotional Healing: Create space for profound emotional release, allowing you to process and integrate past experiences rather than being weighed down by them. Studies show that deliberate, slow breathing can improve emotional self-regulation and help in managing emotional responses to negative situations. [4]


  • Find Inner Peace & Clarity: Move towards a state of greater calm, self-awareness, and emotional freedom. Somatic Breathwork can positively affect neurotransmitter levels like serotonin and dopamine, contributing to improved mood and mental clarity. [5]


We're Norm and Toni Poulsen, a husband & wife team, and SomaYama® BREATH was born from our own breakthroughs. We believe everyone deserves to unlock the potential for healing and peace within themselves.
