"The 50h Breathwork with Gaiana were a week of full transformation.
I have learned not only a technique to breath, no also a lot of information and tools about trauma and how to build up my Resources.
Besides that, we started our days with amazing Yoga Classes or Concious Movement.
In the evening we had soul nourishing events or time for our own integration.
And of course we had a breathwork session every day and had also the amazing opportunity to watch Gaianas 1:1 work on different students.
All after all, I am so happy to have attended the course, as I learned so much more about myself.
Thank you so much Gaiana for your excellent work and inspiring being. I’m looking forward to attending to another training with you in the future."
