Week 2: Breathwork For Health and Peri/Menopause Self-Care with Melike Hussein

Time & Date: 13 February, at 12:00pm

In our hectic lives and as we experience a variety of peri/menopause symptoms, we often experience stress, anxiety, feel tense and even overwhelmed. We instinctively know that taking a deep breath will help us to calm down. But there is more to breathing than meets the eye.

Breathing is essential to all aspects of our health and wellbeing – from brain-care (20% of our oxygen intake is consumed by our brain to function well) to cleansing our bodies (70% of the waste products generated by our metabolism is expelled through our breath).

Our breath is the key bridge linking mind and body, scientifically proven to be the most important neuro-hacking tool, enabling us to change our emotional, mental and physical state of being in a matter of minutes from

  • Stress to Calm
  • Anxious to Resilient
  • Distracted to Focused
  • Overwhelm to Clarity of Mind
  • Fatigued to Energised
  • Reacting to Responding

In this course, you will learn two main aspects of Breathing

  • How to breathe correctly and efficiently, which is essential to maintain a healthy body and mind, and
  • How to use Breathwork to manage and alleviate the symptoms associated with peri/menopause.


What to expect from weekly live sessions?

In every session, you will learn and experience new breathwork technique and practices with Melike, helping you take charge different aspects of your health and wellbeing.

At the end of each session, Melike will share with you her recommendations for your daily self-practice (until the next session), allowing you to consolidate your learning and start to see optimum benefits from these breathwork technique and practices.


Week 2: Abdominal Breathing And Warming Up The Diaphragm

Abdominal Breathing (aka Diaphragmatic Breath) is how we breathe as babies – open, deep and easy flow between belly and chest. However, it is an ability to lose as we move to toddler or school age.

Diaphragm is the primary breathing muscle, which is designed to power 80% of our breathing effort. Hidden in our chest cavity, engaging the diaphragm to power our breathing requires range of movements and practices.

In week 2, Melike will introduce you to few of these practices to help you activate your Diaphragm, getting it ready to support an open, deep and easy breathing.

Week 2 will build on the learnings from week 1. If you have not attended Week 1 live session, we encourage you to watch the video of week 1 and practice the exercises shared.
