Abstract
Background: Holotropic Breathwork is a powerful, natural method of self-exploration and personal transformation. While the breath is ordinarily taken for granted, using the breath to turn inward using Holotropic Breathwork requires extraordinary intention, knowledge and support. Holotropic Breathwork uses sustained, deep breathing and a musical sound scape to direct attention away from the everyday mind and into the deep psyche. A session generally lasts from 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
