A Conscious Connected Breathwork Journey w/ Maria

From Snake to Horse: A Conscious Connected Breathwork Journey

On 17th February, the zodiac cycle transitions from the Year of the Snake to the Year of the Horse — a movement from inner shedding into embodied momentum.

This Conscious Connected Breathwork journey is an invitation to pause, release, and consciously cross that threshold.

The Snake teaches us to shed old skins — patterns and identities that have completed their cycle.

The Horse carries a different medicine — courage, vitality, direction, and trust in life’s forward movement.

Through guided breathwork, rhythm, and intentional pauses, this session supports you to:

•⁠ ⁠Release what you are ready to leave behind

•⁠ ⁠Regulate and reset your nervous system

•⁠ ⁠Connect with the Horse archetype as a guide

•⁠ ⁠Step into the new cycle feeling resourced and aligned

Inspired by ancient shamanic breathing traditions and supported by rhythm, drums, music, archetypal imagery, and subtle body-based techniques, this journey invites clarity and integration to unfold naturally.

No prior experience is needed. You will be guided throughout, with space to pause or rest at any time.
