ONE BREATH CHICAGO
Our Mission: One Breath Chicago provides opportunities for Chicagoans and the Global Community
to learn, to practice, and to awaken to the extraordinary power of one’s own breath.
Join Us for this Extraordinary FREE Program – One Breath Chicago.
Starting in January we offered free live-streaming panel discussions where participants:
– Practice the art of deep (diaphragmatic) breathing,
– Describe benefits of mindful breathing, and
– Integrate the breathwork practices that work for them
One Breath Chicago is a program developed to:
– Provide free access to wellness resources for Chicago residents, Illinoisans, and our Global Community
– Explain the benefits of focused breathing on the body, mind, and emotions
– Create opportunities to practice deep breathing as a city and as a global community
– Create opportunities for equal access to integrative health and wellness tools across Chicagoland and cities beyond Chicago
– Initiate these practices in cities across our global communities, supporting other cities to begin their own One Breath Movement
We hope you will join us for these life-changing workshops and daily breathwork practices. Remember that You are the best You that You’ve got! Treat Yourself well. Take time for You!
