embodied breath, inner evolution:
the bridge between science + soul
Breathwork Facilitator Training
january 23rd - June 7th, 2026
WHY THIS BREATHWORK TRAINING IS DIFFERENT
Most breathwork certification programs teach you methods and protocols. Our breathwork facilitator training teaches identity-level transformation.
The 5-Month Awarehouse Breathwork Certification.
Where physiology meets consciousness.
Where breath becomes the bridge between science and soul.
You won't just learn breathwork techniques; you'll embody the principles of nervous system regulation, somatic awareness, and authentic presence.
Become the Instrument, Not Just the Practitioner.
This isn't about adding another healing modality to your practice. It's about fundamentally transforming who you are as a facilitator.
Through this training, you'll develop how to:
What You’ll Learn
Regulate your own nervous system, and hold grounded presence for others
Recognize and alchemize inner patterns through deep somatic attunement and embodiment
Move from reactivity into grounded choice — where boundaries become an act of alignment, not defense.
Cultivate embodied facilitation that blends structure, safety, and intuition, into deeply transformative sessions
Lead from coherence, guiding without rescuing or losing yourself in the process
how it works
We bridge nervous system physiology and trauma-aware psychology with ancient wisdom, somatic intelligence, and breath-based consciousness practices.
You’ll explore:
Nervous system function, the HPA axis & regulation cycles
Polyvagal theory & stress resilience
Breath mechanics, biochemistry & brainwave states
Fascial release & emotional patterning in the body
Parts work, attachment & inner-child repair
Shadow integration & resistance alchemy
Koshas, Chakras, & subtle-body awareness
Archetypes, myth & ritual as maps of transformation
Attunement, consent, ethics & scope of practice
This path is for those who sense that breathwork isn’t just a technique — it’s a transmission.
Our program serves humans on the threshold of their next becoming: the ones who feel the pull to lead, not from theory, but from truth lived in their body.
You might be a:
Wellness or yoga professional ready to add a trauma-informed, science-rooted foundation to your work
Therapist or coach ready to integrate breath as a somatic bridge between cognition and embodiment
Community builder or leader drawn to create spaces for real transformation and regulation
High achiever, entrepreneur, or executive ready to move from burnout and control into embodied leadership — leading teams and lives from coherence instead of stress
Or simply someone who’s walked through their own initiations and feels called to share what healed them.
