What is breathwork?

For so many of us, it's easier to stay in our heads — to think, analyze, and rationalize our way through all of the decisions and choices that come our way. But when we do that, we miss out on the messages our body and intuition are trying to send us that are integral for our growth. Breathwork offers an opportunity to slow down and access what's really happening inside.

Breathwork is a practice that uses intentional breathing patterns to bring awareness to your body and inner experience. My approach combines a conscious, three-part breath with different breathing rhythms and restorative techniques to help you move beyond the thinking mind and connect with what matters most.

Each session is uniquely curated for you and your needs, from the music we play to the pacing of the session. My goal is to hold a safe space for you to experience the magic of your own breath.

Breathwork can stand alone, in one-on-one sessions or in groups. It also pairs beautifully with coaching, allowing us to explore and work through emotions, energy, and tension you may be holding onto that stand in the way of forward movement.

Benefits of breathwork

Breathwork can have a range of physical, mental, and emotional benefits that can contribute to deeper healing. While every experience is different, the practice may support you in:

  • Releasing tension and stress: Soften physical tension and support a greater sense of relaxation.

  • Processing emotions: Connect with feelings that may be difficult to access or work through using words alone.

  • Supporting nervous system regulation: Encourage a shift between states of activation and relaxation.

  • Deepening self-awareness: Become more attuned to your physical sensations, emotions, and inner experience.

  • Finding clarity and perspective: Create space for new insights and a different way of relating to yourself and your experiences.

Answers to common questions about breathwork:

  • I had such a beautiful experience in my breathwork session with Ari.

    “From the very beginning, it was so clear how much care, intention, and presence she brings into her work. She holds such a safe, grounded, and loving space. I felt deeply supported and able to truly let go and drop in.

    The way Ari works with music is incredibly intuitive and alive. I laughed, I cried, I breathed deeply, I sang. It felt like a full, embodied, divine experience. There was so much aliveness in the session, and I left feeling lighter, more regulated, and more at home in myself.

    Breathwork with Ari is a powerful way to release what you’ve been carrying, regulate your nervous system, and reconnect with yourself. I can’t recommend her enough.”

  • My session with Ari felt so personal.

    “She took the time and energy to understand where I am in my life and healing journey. I could tell that this intentional pre-work made our session all the more special as she spoke from her heart and gifts. Ari is intentional in the flow, music, and pace that she guides clients through breathwork. I had only been in classes where I felt pushed and turned off from breathwork because it felt like I wasn’t doing it correctly. Ari met me where I was and reminded me to move slowly, which helped me soften towards the idea of breathwork as a whole. I finished the session and felt truly 30 pounds lighter. Ari is a one of a kind practitioner with true talent!”

  • I also had the opportunity to experience a breathwork session with Arianna, which I found incredibly valuable.

    “Even though I know there are proven health benefits to slowing down, I really struggle with making time for rest. Arianna gave me this gift of dedicated time to focus on myself through guided breathing exercises. I left feeling renewed and with a fresh, calmer perspective.“

    - Shanna K

  • Before I did my breathwork session with Arianna, I was feeling anxious and overwhelmed with the things going on in my personal and professional life.

    “Before I had our session, I was feeling anxious and overwhelmed with the things going on in my personal and professional life. I was also going through the process of surrendering and fully trusting the universe to support me during my transition period.

    During the session, I was amazed by how seamlessly everything flowed from one experience to another, allowing me to fully relax and reach a state of calm and groundedness with ease. I especially enjoyed the curated music playlist that Arianna created for the session and shared afterward.

    I highly recommend that other business owners looking to get centred and clear in their mind, try a breathwork session with Arianna! She genuinely cares for the well-being of her clients and doesn't make breathwork another to-do list item, but a daily practice that you look forward to.”

    - Michelle H

  • Imagine 60 minutes where you receive the benefits of a yoga session, acupuncture, and a massage all in one.

    “That is what a breathwork session with Ari is like. She makes it incredibly accessible and convenient for you to have a session whenever and wherever works for your schedule. She builds a completely curated and bespoke musical experience that matches and then enhances your energy, mindset and breath. You will learn about yourself, set intentions, shed stress, think deeply about the tools you have inside of yourself to feel contentment and peace. I left my first session feeling so relaxed, grounded, and definitely found a deeper sleep that evening. I highly recommend working with Ari, even if breathwork has not been on your radar yet, this is a special type of session that anyone who has an interest in wellness and self-care should explore.”

    - Natasha S

  • Within our coaching engagement, I especially loved the breathwork session.

    “It was different from our more conversational work and gave me an opportunity to slow down and connect with myself in a more physical and spiritual way. The session ended up being one of the most memorable and meaningful parts of the entire experience for me.”

Come Home to Yourself

There's something powerful about giving yourself permission to slow down and turn inward.

To move beyond the thinking mind, tune into your body, and make space for the emotions, sensations, and experiences that are asking for your attention.

Through breathwork, you have an opportunity to reconnect with yourself in a way that doesn't require words, answers, or a plan. Just a willingness to breathe, feel, and be.
