Autumn is here.
As nature sheds its leaves to grow anew, we too are invited to reflect on what no longer serves us and gently let it go. This season reminds us that release creates space for new growth.
With this in heart, we invite you to a transformative journey with Holotropic Breathwork.
Through deep, conscious breathing supported by evocative music and a safe, held space, you are invited to access expanded states of consciousness, release old patterns and emotional blockages, and reconnect with your inner wisdom and creativity — opening space for clarity and a deeper understanding of your inner world.

Guro Ellingsen
A returned Stavanger local, experienced traveler in the world as most know it, and an experienced traveler within the holotropic realms and other non-ordinary states of consciousness. Guro has had a lifelong interest in holistic ways of life, mind-body practices and psycho-spirituality. Before mentioned interests has led her on journeys around the world and introduced her to practices like, amongst others; yoga, meditation, and holotropic breathwork, that has become an important part of her life. Guro happened upon breathwork by chance, or perhaps fate rather, and has since her very first meeting with the mat (where the breathwork takes place) felt its transformative and healing effect. This led her to the passionate choice of undertaking the training to become a facilitator, wanting to pass on the experience of Holotropic Breathwork® to others who might benefit from it. Guro is a certified Holotropic Breathwork Facilitator, and is passionate about providing safe containers and support for healing and growth through non-ordinary states of consciousness.
Are you new to Holotropic Breathwork®?
Holotropic Breathwork® is a powerful and effective technique of experiential psychotherapy and deep self-exploration within transpersonal psychology. Its purpose is to achieve greater self-understanding, expansion of self-identity, and to facilitate access to the roots of emotional and psychosomatic problems.
Holotropic Breathwork® invites the breather on a deep journey inward supported by accelerated breath and evocative music. Energy releasing bodywork techniques are provided where requested or needed. Mandala drawing/painting and group sharing are important tools for the integration of the experience after the session.
Contraindications for Holotropic Breathwork® are high blood pressure, heart problems, severe mental illness, recent surgery or fractures, acute infectious illness, epilepsy, glaucoma and pregnancy.
