Energy Breathwork: Come Back to Yourself
A live 2-hour Energy Breathwork experience with Kristaps Kazaks.
Perhaps now more than ever we need enough space to hear ourselves again.
World's loud, messy and chaotic, we're drowning in information, and most of us spend a lot of time in our heads.
Thinking about what needs to happen next. What we should be doing. Whether we're doing enough. What other people expect from us.
And when you're ambitious and used to performing, it can become surprisingly easy to override what you actually feel.
Come Back to Yourself is a live Energy Breathwork experience designed to give you space to step outside your usual thinking patterns, reconnect with your body and explore what might be underneath the noise.
No previous breathwork experience is required.
What kind of breathwork is this?
There are many breathing practices, and they serve different purposes.
This isn't Wim Hof breathing, Box Breathing or Heart Coherence breathing, nor is it being offered as Holotropic Breathwork.
The method I facilitate uses conscious connected breathing.
You'll breathe continuously without pauses between the inhale and exhale. The inhale is deep and active, while the exhale is relaxed and unforced.
We'll continue this breathing pattern for approximately 45-60 minutes, supported by music and my guidance.
The practice can create an experience quite different from your normal state. You may notice physical sensations such as tingling or lightheadedness, emotions, memories, imagery, resistance, insight, stillness or deep relaxation.
Every session is different.
There is no particular experience you need to have and nothing you need to force.
I'll teach you the technique before we begin and continue guiding you throughout the experience.
What will the 2 hours look like?
30 min | Arrive & Attune
We'll start by slowing down.
I'll introduce the method, explain how we'll breathe, what you might experience and answer any questions.
You'll then set an intention by exploring two simple questions:
What do I want to work on?
What's currently alive in me?
You don't need to arrive with perfect answers.
60 min | Breathe
We'll move into the guided Energy Breathwork journey.
You'll lie down, close your eyes and breathe using the conscious connected breathing pattern I'll teach you.
I'll guide you throughout with music, breathing cues and prompts while you pay attention to what is happening in your body and inner experience.
30 min | Integrate
We won't rush back into normal life.
You'll have time to land, reflect on what emerged and explore what the experience might mean for the way you're actually living.
Because the goal isn't to have a profound experience while lying on the floor.
The interesting part is what happens in the life you stand back up into.
Before we meet
Once you register, I'll send you a short preparation video explaining the practice and how to prepare, so you can arrive knowing what to expect.
For the session, you'll need:
A quiet place where no one will interrupt you for 2h
Enough unobstructed space to lie down
A blanket and, if useful, a small pillow
Ideally noise cancelling headphones
A phone or laptop with the latest version of Zoom
For the best experience, I recommend not eating or drinking coffee for approximately two hours before the session, avoiding alcohol the night before, and getting a solid night's sleep where possible.
You'll also receive the relevant health and safety information before participating.
A little about me
I'm Kristaps Kazaks, a trained breathwork practitioner and mental performance coach.
I spent the first decade of my career working in elite sport, including the Premier League and FIFA.
I discovered Energy Breathwork in early 2023 during a period when my life looked successful from the outside, but internally I was beginning to question whether the path I was on was actually mine.
After my first session, I wrote something in my journal that captures what this practice began to represent for me:
“So grateful that I finally heard myself.”
Breathwork didn't suddenly change my life.
But it became part of a much deeper process of understanding what I believed about myself, what I was afraid of, what I actually wanted and how I wanted to live.
Today, Energy Breathwork sits at the heart of the work I facilitate for others.
Sometimes we need to get quiet enough to hear our own answers for what we truly want, why we're here, and what's standing in the way.
This is the first session in a new regular Energy Breathwork series, and I'm intentionally keeping the group small.
No previous breathwork experience is required.
Come with curiosity.
