Unlocking Breathwork: Why Breathwork Has Contraindications, 3 of 5

October 23, 2024 • Kristi Sandeno, Lindsay Davis • Season 2 • Episode 37

Breathwork is a powerful healing tool with many physical, mental, and spiritual benefits. For people without pre-existing health conditions, conscious connected breathwork is a safe modality.

There are some contraindications for participating in conscious connected breathwork that are important to be aware of. Of course, these contraindications are not meant to scare anyone; they are put in place to help keep people safe and empowered regarding their health care and staying informed as to what is best for them.

There has been a lack of information in the past on why each of these conditions is listed as a contraindication. Through this episode, we hope to provide more insight into why each of these contraindications is suggested and how to safely attend a conscious connected breathwork ceremony, even when you are managing an active health imbalance.

This conversation covers contraindications such as cardiovascular issues, respiratory problems, severe psychiatric conditions, epilepsy, recent surgeries, pregnancy, detached retina or glaucoma, aneurysms, osteoporosis, uncontrolled diabetes, and being on heavy medications.

We are not medical professionals, and breathwork practitioners are not medical professionals. The information provided in this episode is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice. If you are taking any medication or have any health condition, it is essential to consult with your medical practitioner. If your medical provider gives you the yes to go ahead, then we suggest you also consult with the breathwork practitioner in advance and confirm that they are qualified to hold space for you and your current condition.
