Rituals of Breathwork A Journey Through Ancient Practices and Altered States This is not just a book about breathing — it is an invitation to remember. Across cultures and centuries, breath has been used to pray, to heal, to awaken, and to return. In these pages, you’ll journey through ten timeless states — from presence and release to wonder, devotion, and transformation — guided by story, symbol, and somatic ritual. Designed for teachers, healers, seekers, and anyone drawn to the sacred edge of inner work, this book is both a personal compass and a ceremonial guide. With each chapter, you’ll uncover a breath not just to survive with — but to live by. Let it be a companion for your own practice. Let it breathe beside you when you guide others. “The breath is not a trend. It’s a remembering — ancient, intimate, and endlessly alive.” — Leigh Ewin Breathwork facilitator & educator and author of Respiritual Awakening
