What Is Rebirthing-Breathwork and How Can It Help Me?
“Rebirthing-Breathwork is the art and science of relearning to breathe Energy as we did when we were newborn babies.” So says Leonard Orr who gave the gift of this practice to the world in the 1970s. His spontaneous experiences of reliving his birth began in 1962 and he continued to have what he calls “a series of special gifts from God.” These gifts and inspirations led Mr. Orr to explore the power of the conscious use of breath and energy. In 1974 he began to train practitioners to teach Conscious Energy Breathing to others. Mr. Orr goes on to say that we lose the ability to consciously breathe energy “when we are inundated by the emotional energy of our parents and all the other people we have met in the world. Every negative thought and experience we have inhibits our ability to contact the Breath of life.” Perhaps as early as the age of 5, but certainly by the time we become adults, our body can be so full of pain and tension that it begins to become stiff or heavy. Rebirthing, breathing in Divine Energy, releases the stored pain, stiffness and tension in your body, mind and spirit.
Rebirthing is the basic tool for regeneration of the body. With conscious energy breathing, you can keep yourself in a more consistent, happy, healthy and productive state of aliveness. You can use it to relax deeply, eliminate stress and tension, increase energy, creativity and vitality, and to expand your consciousness and your sense of oneness with all of life.
A high quality session involves an experience of Divine Energy that is inspired by a simple, gentle, connected breathing rhythm guided on a one-to-one basis by a well-trained Rebirther. The flood of oxygen that courses through your body enlivens, detoxifies and rejuvenates all of the cells of your physical body. The flood of life force energy (prana) also does the same for your energy or light body.
A session will usually last from one to two hours, but perhaps as long as three. It all depends on what the Divine Energy wants to work on in your body. While the name Rebirthing-Breathwork suggests that one may have an experience of or remember a repressed memory of their birth, this is not an experience that is specifically focused on or sought. It usually happens spontaneously when your higher intelligence deems it to be in your best interest to release that memory.
Your first ten sessions with a skilled Rebirther will open many doors to your inner world and inner healing. You may experience your deepest lows and your highest highs. The practitioner will guide you to maintain your breathing rhythm and be a safe presence to calm your anxieties. As you draw prana, life force, into your body, it will ease your lows and also make it easier to integrate your highs into practical daily life. Whatever comes up, the breath will gracefully release it. Divine Energy is intelligent and it will know where to go and what to do in order to free you from any negativity. It brings light into your body. It releases you from pain and fear. It opens you up to a powerful connection with the cosmos.
“Rebirthing Breathwork is a continuous surprise of Divine Energy which expands our healing, spiritual growth, our peace and practical abilities, and our experience of God on all levels of your Being.” ~ Leonard Orr
