Breathe Together Sunday - Piotr Ciepiel - 27th October at 12pm ET

Live Soma Breath session led by Piotr Ciepiel (with host Claudia). The event opens with community check-ins and a shaking warm-up to release tension, then moves into guided meditation and structured breathwork: rhythmical cycles (notably 4-in/4-out, and a later 2-in/4-out variant), breath-hold rounds with full-body tensing and pelvic-floor squeezes, and affirmations (e.g., "I am safe/supportede and capable"). Piotr emphasizes using stress constructively, notes contraindications for breath-holds (pacemaker, epilepsy, uncontrolled hypertension, pregnancy, menstrual cycle), and invites daily practice and app/trainings. Replay available for one week.

Okay, so let's get tuned into this session. This is the stress day. I think that everyone here can resonate with the stress. I think everyone in some moment of our life felt stress, felt stressful. I think Stress is something that is a pandemic emotion, sensation, illness in this moment in life. Today we have an amazing session with my friends, my brother, my business partner, Piotr from. He is from Poland but he was living in Ireland, but now he's in Barcelona. So he's a multi ethnic person. And we're going to be joining him with this session that he will explain later. But first I want to tell everyone, especially the people who are new here, that we have a very special way in summer breath to release stress. Right. Because it's good to meditate, it's good to breathe. Of course, it's good to try to find different tools to really feel that we can release the stress. But we have a very special one that is shaking. Right? Raise your hand. Who loves shaking. Yes. So please, I really, really, really invite you all to stand up. I will be sharing a music in a few seconds and we're going to just shake. Let me show you. Maybe here.
There'S more people in the room and this is just very normal shaking as it's a movement that it's just like we're vibrating, right? We're vibrating with the music that I'm going to share with you. And just try to imagine that you are releasing, letting go all the stress in the body that you are. Just really see how I'm taking out the stress, the tension.
I don't know, the work, whatever you want to. You're not really released. So let's do this. Let me just get in a new people here and let's do it. Okay.

So it's my pleasure, it's my honor. Two percent. Piotr, my friend, he is the one who is going to introduce who he is. But for me is my half, my half part. My body is my brother, my friends, I love him. So I know that this is going to be an amazing session. So, Piotr, please, please, please come.
Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you so, so much, Claudia. Thank you so much, everyone for joining us today, for joining the community at our Sunday Breathe Together free event. You still have time, if you haven't yet to share this link with your friends, your family, send it out there because this is going to be an epic breathwork journey that I have the privilege of hosting, guiding for you today. Breathing stress away. I mean, how important it is to know that stress can be used, can be utilized, transmuted, it can be actually.
Brought to the surface and allow us to heal with the stress that we are every single day. Overly stimulated wind. We can actually use that stress every single day. So today in this session, and of course I'm going to be introducing how we're going to be breathing, what the entire construct of today's breathwork journey will be. But I have the absolute pleasure to, to welcome you all. My name is Piotr Chipiel Soma, breath master transformational coach. And I see some familiar faces, I see some new faces, I see faces that I've joined through different platforms. And I love the fact that we are so waking up right now to breath work and that we're breaking up to shaking and all these different modalities and coming together for this one event and breathing together in a rhythm, although we're all in different parts of the world. I'm in Barcelona and Spain, as Claudia mentioned, and so many of you have mentioned as well, that you're in so many different parts of the world. And today is obviously one of these tricky days as well where there's a different time zone, time change here in Europe and America. The States are still not changing their time. So some of you have been a little bit confused what is happening with today's Sunday Breathe Together session. But here we managed to come all together. We managed to come all together and breathe together and be together in this community event. So stress is, as Claudia mentioned, the. The real struggle that society and people nowadays are facing. It is a pandemic and it is a serial killer. And stress unresolved, chronic stress will lead to burnouts, will lead to diseases, illnesses. And I am.
From my own journey, from my Own experience. The proof that unresolved undiagnosed stress can lead to many challenges that the body has to face and the body has to fight within. My own story of overcoming cancer that I so openly share because I want people to really understand that it is possible to use stress and not to be packing up stress in that vessel that we all have the body and the body keeps us core. And as often as possible as we can release that stress and use it and not be used by stress, we are becoming empowered. We are truly taking control over our lives. Does that resonate? Do I see some head shakes? Thank you, Simon. Thank you, Claudia. Robin, thank you. I honestly feel like we are at the time, right now, especially now, coming into autumn, winter, but also what is going on in the world that the more we address and the more we're not scared and we're not fearing stress and talking about stress, the more we can resolve and dissolve and transmute it. And shaking, what we've just done is the perfect example and a perfect tool for you to use. I mean, animals in nature shake. They shake their stress away, they shake their fear away. And we quite often forget that we are part of the animal kingdom and we should be also shaken. So even if you're in a busy London tube or in, you're in Berlin or in Barcelona, find a space where you can maybe shake it off really quickly and then come back to your everyday life. Because that power, that empowerment you'll feel in your own body, with your own breath and how your body respond will help you really dissolve, transmute that stress. So that is the shaking part, the movement part. I mean, so many of us love dancing, love moving our bodies, and intentional shaking, intentional dancing, sometimes with our eyes closed, with conscious breathing will help you truly use that stress. So it's not going to be hurting you and you're not going to be reacting to all the stimulation that is happening around. Because we live in a world full of stimulations and that is okay. So we cannot control what is out there. We can control what is within and how we are truly responding. And that's exactly what we're here to do today. Shaking movement is one thing, and then breath work. There's so much breath journey that I'm about to show you today and to guide you through today will help you as well to really tap into dissolving, transmuting, using stress for a healthier body, calmer mind and energetic shift from anxious, worried, maybe even depressed, overwhelmed, overthinking to actually more clarity, calm, peace, tranquility, the opportunity for you to really connect with the limitless, incredible being that you already are. So today's journey, breathing stress away, because it is a pre journey before we go into our stress awareness National Stress Awareness Day, which is on the 2nd of November. And it's, it's great to have this, this session today. So you can maybe be the advocates for these sessions as well. You can be an advocate for people around your community to help people as well to transmute and use that stress. So the way today's session will be, will be guided and how it's going to look. We're gonna go through our meditation piece first. We've done the shaken, so we've tapped into the body, into the energy. You might still feel that energy and there was, it's all leading towards the end result. So shaking was intentional. Now you're, I hope you have an open heart, an open mind when you listen to, to my explanation of why this session is so important. Meditation visualization for a coup minutes and then we're going to be breathing. So if you're brand new to Soma breath, we're going to be breathing in a rhythm. We're going to be inhaling through the nose into our belly using our diaphragm and out through the mouth. So if you, if you're still standing up, I see some people still standing up, you can actually relax now. You can sit down. You can sit down. You can just find a comfortable seated position. Because throughout this entire journey, I really encourage you to be in a seated position with your spine straight. So you're really feeling the flow of energy between each single energy system of your body. As we're going to be using as well, our pelvic floor squeezes with each inhalation. So we're going to be breathing in a rhythm, soft and smooth, matching each cycle of breath. Your inhale Exhale in cycle one should match inhale exhale in cycle two, 3, 4, 10, 15. If it doesn't that's okay, you just revert back and try to bring yourself back to a rhythm of soft and smooth. We're going to start off with four. Four count breathing in for four through the nose into the belly and out through the mouth for four. No pausing, no stopping. In between soft rhythmical breathing, inhaling into the belly, then into the chest with an activation of the pelvic floor and then releasing with the exhale the pelvic floor and your through the outbreath, the exhale. Couple of minutes of rhythmical breathing with beautiful music and of course, my guidance and some affirmations that I really want to bring into today's session is going to be deeply ingrained in you as well. Even after you, you, you finish the breathing. And you're going to be really inspired after the session for the entire day and hopefully your life. Then we're going to be going for our holds, breath holds. We're going to be first going for a breathing fully in.
Holding, tensing and squeezing every muscle in your body, bringing your shoulders up to your ears, feeling also the energy from the pelvic floor, move that energy from the pelvic floor as you gently just squeeze it as a pump. And then on my commands, we're going to be breathing fully out, all of the air out.
Until we reach that stop. When we're at that stop, we're going to hold. This is the moment where we're going to be holding on the out breath and this is where a lot of magic is happening. We're going to be relaxing the body and we're going to be tapping into this trance like meditative state where I'll be guiding you and I'll be affirming a couple of important phrases for you, for your body, your subconscious to remember and to feel inspired by for the rest of your journey called life. And then if, well actually if you cannot hold any longer, we're going to try to push really to that discomfort zone, right? Because that's where change is happening. That is exactly where the imprints can be built into your body, into your energetic state. If you can't hold any longer, you're going to breathe just, just a booster breath in and then fully back out again and holding again until all together, on my command, we're going to be breathing fully in and holding and again squeezing and tensing and squeezing the pelvic floor muscles. They're the muscles that we use if you want to hold on to, to, to our pee, if you cannot find a toilet. And you must hold on to this vital source. And then on my command again, we're going to be releasing fully at the breath and we're going to come back to our natural flow there until I guide you for our second round of breathing and then our third round of breathing. But don't worry if there was just too much description, explanation right now. Don't worry. Trust the journey, trust your breath. Please feel safe as well in this space amongst your community. And with my guidance, my voice will be a guide as well. Not only the music, the beats, the beautifully creative music, music, but Also the. The voice and. And your own rhythm, your own breath will remind you how to breathe and how to tap in into your release of stress and bring in more calm and tranquility and peace. How does that all sound? Are we all good? Just see some head shakes. I see some head shakes there. I see some head shakes here. I see Claire even smiling. Thank you, Marissa. Good. Ella is also smiling. Good. Okay. I haven't lost anyone. This is fantastic. Phenomenal. Okay, now and then, of course, you know, towards the very end, I'll guide us all out of the journey. Try to as well eliminate as many distractions. Your phone or on autoplane.
Autoplane. On plane mode. Airplane, autoplane and airplane mode. I love this. I'm making up words now. On airplane mode, do not disturb. And just make sure as well that you are seated and that you have headphones on because it will really help with the experience. If you don't, that's okay. But for the next couple of journeys, try to bring your headphones on as well into these sessions as well, because it will help to really get that vibration, that frequency of the music and my voice to be imprinted into all your brainwave states. Okay, I think we're ready. Just in regards to the. Just in regards to the breath holds, let me just explain one very important thing about. There are contraindications just for the breath holds, not the rhythmical breathing part. So if you have a pacemaker, epilepsy, uncontrolled, high blood pressure, or if you are pregnant or on your moon cycle, just be very well. First of all, refrain from the breath holds. But also listen to your body. And whatever your body is wanting you to do today, allow it to be today, because this is exactly perfect. But the ones that I've just mentioned, refrain from doing the breath holds. You can continue on doing the cycle. So breath the rhythmical breathing or come back to your natural flow there. You will still receive a lot of the benefits from this session. Okay, I think we're ready. Are we ready? I think we're ready. I think we are. Yes. Claudia, are we ready?
We are ready. We. I just want to again remind to everyone that there's a very soft, subtle silence. Inhale, please. Don't. Don't do any force. It's not volume, it's not force. It's a very silent, subtle inhale and a very subtle and soft exhalation as well. That will bring more, I think, in my opinion, more a sense of this trance of breath work. We are ready for yoga, baby.
Amazing, amazing, amazing. So find yourself in a comfortable seated position. Put your back straight.
And before you'll hear the music, before you hear the sounds, just tap in to the sounds of your environment.
Whatever is happening around you.
Tap into that sound.
And now connect with your own breath.
Connect with your own inhale.
And connect with your own exhale.
And now I invite you to close your eyes.
Close your eyes and enjoy the journey.
As you keep connecting to the breath, your own inhale, your own exhale.
Without changing, modifying anything, just observe.
Your inhale, your exhale, tail.
Allow the music in my voice.
To be your guides.
On this journey, through this experience.
Nowhere to be and nothing to do with.
As you keep arriving to this space.
To yourself.
As you inhale.
Allow yourself to exhale and release the worries and the stress of the day, day of the week, the month.
Without judging the breath.
Without comparing the breath.
Feel how the breath, the sound, the music are dancing together.
Playful together.
This is a moment you give to yourself.
Relaxing further into the body.
With each breath.
Any thoughts, any ideas, any expectations.
That might be showing up.
Acknowledge them for just a moment.
And come back to your breath.
The inhale and the exhale.
This is your journey, your experience.
Just for a moment, observe.
The way the inhale.
Enters.
And the way the exhale.
Is a release and a let go.
As we're not holding on to the breath.
We'Re not holding on to stress.
Relaxing your shoulders further down.
Feeling the breath entering, feeling the breath leaving.
It is time for us to reset the body's stress responses.
Keep connecting to the breath. Nowhere to be, nothing to do. You're exactly where you're meant to be.
Give yourself permission.
To be in this journey.
And now let's focus.
On the breath. Entering through the nose into the belly, soft and smooth.
And leaving our body.
Through the mouth.
And feel that sense of relaxation with that outbreath.
Breathing in with ease and relaxation.
And breathing out layer by layer. The stress of the day, of the week, the month, the year.
Your life.
Inhaling.
And exhaling.
Just keep observing the breath. Breathing in through the nose.
And out through the mouth.
Out.
Today we will release gently.
Stress that is stored in our bodies.
So we can reconnect.
With a sense of lightness, balance, peace.
It's time for our inner world to be brought out to the outer world.
Calm within.
And calm all around.
Internally and externally.
Just breathe. Just breathe. Stress away.
If your mind tries to hurry.
Give it a smile.
And just softly come back to your breath. Observe the breath.
Trusting this journey.
Breathing in through the nose, into the belly. Then into the chest. Observe that wave of air and then out through the mouth. Release, let go. And feel how with every single exhalation, you're becoming one with the relaxed body. Arriving to this space and into your body.
That's it.
This is our natural state of being.
And that is exactly how we attract.
Love, abundance, health, wealth.
If we can tap into the calm.
Being that we are, that we're supposed to be all the time.
We can see that we can live in harmony.
Harmony between the mind and the energy. The mind and the body, the body and the energy.
Just for a few more moments. Keep connecting to the sounds my voice.
And to your own breath. Breathing in through the nose and out through the mouth. Preparing ourselves for the first cycle of breath.
Now, with our next inhalation, let's tense and squeeze every cell of our body. With the next inhalation. Inhale and squeeze. Intense. A controlled stressor to the body. You're in control. Not the outside, not the environment. Environment, you're in control. Keep squeezing, tensing the body and then release. Ah.
Release the tension and release the breath.
This is how we speak, converse with our body with our energy. One more time, Breathe fully in and tense and squeeze every muscle, every cell.
Exhale.
Feel it as you keep squeezing and tensing and release.
Observe your breath.
It is time for us to breathe together.
In a four, four rhythm.
So that we can become balanced, coherent. Mind and body, body and mind.
Without stress.
Calm and peaceful.
Let's get ready to breathe together.
Your inhale and your exhale.
In 2, 3, 4. Out. 2, 3, 4. In, 2, 3, 4. Out, 2, 3, 4.
Getting in through the nose, into the belly, into the chest and out through the mouth. A wave of relaxation.
Breathing in.
And letting go.
Breathe. Breathe. Stress away.
It is time to unpack that backpack of stressful stories, conditions, believes.
Unpack it. Release it.
Four in, two, three, four.
Soft and smooth, connected. We're not rushing, we're not stressing the breath.
Once you found that rhythm.
2, 3, 4.
Feel your body, maybe it wants to move gently with the inhale. Your shoulders go up. With the exhale, they drop down.
You are the soma. You are the body.
You are the breath.
4 out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2, 3, 4. Out, 2, 3, 4. In, 2, 3, 4. Out, 2, 3, 4.

It's time to use stress for advantage.
Three, four, eight. Two, three, four, out. Two, three, four, in.
We're teaching the body, we're teaching.
Ourselves. We're remembering. We're remembering how it was before stress creeped in.
And now breathe fully in. All the air in. And hold the breath in. Hold, squeeze. Intense. Control the stress right now as you squeeze every cell, every muscle of your body.
Feeding the energy from the pelvic floor. As we gently squeeze on the pelvic floor.
Floor.
This is your moment of truth. You're in control of this stressor. And this is showing your body, your energy, that you're in charge, not the external world. You are in charge and you know how to use this stress.
And let's drop it all out. Fully out. All of it out. All the air out. And hold. Once you empty your lungs, hold.
As you're seated, bring your chin down to your chest, relaxing the body, dropping your shoulders down.
This is your natural state. Calm and peaceful.
No more overthinking.
No more disconnection.
And when our minds are clouded by stress, it is difficult to feel present, feel calm. But right now, you are in this body, in this vessel, and you're controlling this moment.
If you can't hold any longer, you can take that booster breath and fully back out again. And hold. Welcoming discomfort as you are one with the body, one with the energy.
Today we are transmuted stored stress and tension into peace.
Into peace, into peace.
And let's get ready to breathe on my count. Together.
In three. In two and one. Fully in.
And hold and squeeze. The pelvic floor. Floor. Your muscles, your cells.
Feel that rush of energy.
Going through your body. Feel it, feel it energizing you.
A meaningful connection right now is re established. You remember how it feels to be in the body.
And now drop it out. Drop it all out.
Yes.
Observe your natural flow there. Be curious.
Watch the inhale.
And connect with the powerful exhale.
Be curious, be calm.
Experiencing life to the fullest. Right now.
We are remembering.
How it feels like to be in a calm, blissful, peaceful state.
Peaceful body.
Just see that inhale.
Watch that exhale.
And just for a moment, all together as well. On, let's be fully in all of the air. In. Fully in. Showing that we are in control. We are in control. Holding and squeezing again. Every cell of our body.
Tense in your quads, your thighs, your ankles, tensing every part of your body. Tense.
Tense.
The controlled stressor. A positive stressor.
And release. Drop it out. Drop the tension. Drop the air.
Roll your shoulders back and drop them down.
If your mind is wandering.
Bring yourself back to the breath.
You don't have to be anywhere else but here.
Let's tap into that healing power of our breath.
And before we go into our second cycle of breath.
Let'S affirm together.

Supported and deeply grounded. I am safe, supported and deeply grounded.

You are safe. You're calm.
In this body of yours. You're reminded of your potential.
All of the overwhelm, conditioning, all of the stress, fatigue, anxiety, gone. Gone.
As you hold your breath as long as you possibly can, pushing past that moment where you feel like you have to breathe. You don't trust me. You don't. Your body can hold a little bit longer. Just a little bit longer.
That's how we connect with our body. That's how we tell our body we are in charge. We love you, body. We know. We feel you.
But when that moment comes that you truly have to take a breath, just take a booster breath, just a small sip, and then fully back out again.
And witness.
This moment of peace and support, clarity.
Lightness.
As you are in harmony with your your mind, your body, your energy.
And.
Stress just melted away with every exhalation, leaving you feeling lighter and at ease.
If you can hold a bit longer, hold. But if you can't, breathe together in three, in, two, in one, fully in.
And hold the breath in. Hold it.
The renewed version of you restored, rejuvenated.
Pressing on the pelvic floor gently and feeding that energy, maybe even seeing a light.
A peaceful light.
That came back to your life.
And whenever you're ready, and only you know when you're ready with your next exhalation or final exhalation, I want you to imagine and you're remaining stressed, be released with that exhalation. You're in charge, you're in control. Whenever you're ready, drop it out.
And when you have done so, come back to your natural flow there.
And observe.
Your inhale. Your exhale.
That breath right now is the reminder of your strength and resilience without the unnecessary stress.
In a peaceful body lies a calm mind.
And from that space there is no fear, there is no lack.
There is just bliss.
And.
And from that space.
You attract.
You manifest.
You bring it all to your reality.
Because from that space of peace.
From that space there is only love.
Keep observing the breath.
Sa.
Keep observing the breath.
If the mental chatter starts to come back, acknowledge it, befriend it.
And watch your breath as it plays with the sounds, the music.
It.
That breath is your bridge.
That you can always cross.
From a state of stress to a state of calm.
Sa.
Acknowledge just for a moment.
That you will be reconnecting with the breath, with that bridge.
Anytime.
You feel a sense of worry.
Anxiety.
Fear and stress.
And as the music gently fades away, keep your eyes closed for just another moment.
As right now, in this silence, in this moment of stillness.
Is where you can.
Truly imprint and affirm to yourself for yourself.
That you will always remember to reconnect with your breath and not react to the stressors that the world.
Is trying to.
Use.
Against us.
Anytime you feel like reacting.
You will come back to the breath.
You will zoom out of the situation.
And you will come back to the state of peace and calm.
So that your reaction, your response, will be from a state of love, calm and peace, creating a ripple effect and helping the world and its vibration.
It is time for us all to raise the vibration of this planet, of humanity.
Human by human.
Breath by breath. Take a breath in.
And release a breath.
One final breath in.
Hold, squeeze, tense with a smile.
And release. Let it all out. Thanking yourself. Thanking, thanking. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
And slowly coming back to your body.
Wiggling your fingers and your toes.
Reconnecting to each part of your body and gently.
Opening your eyes and coming back to this space.
Namaste.

Okay, now you can talk. We are listening to you, Evan.
Okay. Hi.
Hi.
Oh, we have a nice echo. Echo, echo, echo.
No, I already fixed it.
Okay, cool.
Can you talk now again, Evan?
No, I cannot hear you.
Because it's two events.
Oh, yeah. No, no, I am. Yes, yes, yes.
Okay, so Appliotor, here's a question. What is the best time for breath work?
So.
You can all hear me still? Yeah, yeah, I'm still. Okay. I'm not. I'm not muted. Okay, so there's so many different types of breath work. Just remember that we are here as a collective, breeding the Soma breath style. And with Soma Breath as you breathe in through the nose, into the belly, activating the parasympathetic, the rest digest receptors and then breathing out through the mouth. It is actually a safe daily dose as we call it, because the two rounds of breath are daily, are called daily doses within the kids community. And it is safe enough to do them, for example, every single day. And I would, I always like to do them in the morning, fasted, when I just got up, just woke up because again, my brain waves are still in this state of sleepiness, dreaminess. So I can really connect with the powerful, energetic being that I am and, and really tap into something.
Out of the mind, the mental chatter, the, the, the, the stress responses that the day might bring. Because, you know, I am, I am not, you know, we're all super humans, we're all super beings. But at the same time stress still affects me as well. So breathwork is a beautiful way for you to tap back into yourself. And this type of breathwork that I, that I was just guiding you, it is safe to do every day. Every single day. I would say as well, do not practice breathwork when you've eaten, when you have like a heavy meal especially, but, and of course if you're, you know, don't practice breathwork in water, do not practice breathwork when you're driving a car. But you know, but breath work and when you become aware how incredible you can change your states.
By just, by just breathing, by just feeling that empowerment through the breath, you can really tap into.
The parasympathetic, calm, tranquil, blissful states that will truly bring you a lot of peace. And I think in a world that we're in right now, we, we must seek more peace than activation. And of course, you know, within also the Soma breath app that we're going to be talking about a little bit today, we also have different sessions for more activation, more energy, more creating that kind of if you want to really wake up, you know, because you're kind of in the sleepy, dreamy, calm state, that's also good. But I would definitely recommend the daily doses, the two cycles of breath to be done every single day.
Yeah, we have Manjula, I think that you want to say something. You just can unmute.
Thank you very much. I asked that question, you know, what is the best time for breath work?
Ah, okay.
That's why I'm prompted to ask question I, I, I'm calling. I'm Jo, I have joined from England and thank you very much. But I suffer with fibromyalgia for last so many years. And I've been following breath work for fibromyalgia pains. But this seem to be getting worse. And doctors, I am scared to talk to them. Whenever you speak to them, you get new prescription or medication. New prescription painkillers. And I don't want to take them. You know know. So what is the best thing for fibromyalgia pains? How breath through breath work.
But that is. I'll be very honest. I'm not going to even pretend I will give you an answer that will satisfy you. I think you know Nash as a person or maybe even you Claudia as a my master as well. Maybe you'll be able to. Yeah. Come back.
So Lisa, remember that what we need to work with the inflammation. So inflammation is important in that kind of immune problems in the body. And as a person everyone will navigate a different journey with these kind of issues. But I think that you should be taking care of your inflammation and how breath work can really help with that is exactly the kind of breath work Piotr did today. It's a very slow, even longer exhalation states. Like you can even exit in eight or even longer that it will help to help with the inflammation in the body, activate the sympathetic nervous system, activate the vagus nerve. That is going to help you with the pain. So this is something that should become your lifestyle. As you know one of the tools. One of the.
One of the tools that you need to take care of also with nutrition, with exercise and different things that you need to take care of. Right. So I will completely say that this kind of session longer exhalation, very small rhythmical breathing, even with no breath holds in the first place just to relax your body and try to help with the pain. And. And also yes I invite you to go and read about Nita's story of how he healed himself with this chronic illness.
Also with breath work but also with nutrition. I think that is really important too. And also you have other techniques like OM shunting. Like OM Shunting also will help us to again with the inflammation of the body and to take this advantage of the oxygen and be more efficient with that too. So I will say that explore. That is why I really recommend everyone to take action and join the app. Monica already shared the link of our app and I want to if I may, Piotr just I'm going to share the screen now. I'm just going to take you out a little bit and I want to share with you these guys because I think the app is something that it will bring so many experiences for inner pharmacy.
Sessions. Oh, where did this. Where it is? Here we are. So just for example, if you join the app next, next week we have different sessions. So Monday we have Kara, then you have me on Wednesday you will have.
Dustin on Friday and then we have another Sunday session with Nigel that I really recommend everyone to come. This Sunday session will be free. But the other ones are if you are already a member in the app and also in the app you will find all the replays and you have different exercises, for example for energy, for anxiety, for stress, for blood pressure, gut microbiome. I mean so many things that you can do with breathwork and you have different journeys as well in the app. So I really recommend to have these tools in your life life to start exploring how breath work will help you with all of, all of you in your life. And yeah, so that for me is a, is a win. And also remember that if you want to get deep into these.
Sessions and deep into the breath work experience as well, you have the 21 days awakening journey. Monica, if you. Yeah, Monica already share the link for that. The 21 Days Awakening Journey actually is a four weeks program where you will be working with your mind, your soul and your body through breath work and other experiences that we have been, you know, preparing for you guys for this program. So Christine says the app is totally amazing. Can you share the link how to access the app with a laptop? Monica, can you do that please? For me having a Mac it was really easy. I just went to the app in the computer and just download the app. App in my computer. I don't know how it works in PC. Monica says Christina that she's going to email you. She's going to email you. You have the app, you have the 21 days of working journey where each week you will join an instructor that will help you out to navigate. Maybe the 21 days for you and Julia can be interesting.
To experience.
Also I want you to everyone here and if you are an instructor and you're navigating level one or even if you want to become an instructor, we have the last training, the last three days training in Austin coming in November and I can share with you, I believe. Let me see if this going to work. No, of course. Let me just go back to my content here. I will share with you the link of that training. It is. Oh, Monica is already.
It's a pro Monica. So what is different with Austin Retreat is that you will be able to certificate yourself as a Level 1 instructor. Live with amazing instructor that come in all over the world and of course feel the power of the community. So I will always going to recommend you to experience a live retreat because it's incredible. So Pyotr, something that you want to say before we go?
Absolutely, yes. Thank you so much everyone for joining. Thank you truly from the bottom of my heart for taking this time to.
Really look at stress from a different angle as well. And for the opportunity to not really be defeated by stress, but use it. Because the more you use it consciously and you're aware of it, you can zoom yourself out of situations, the better you become at reacting, responding, being not constantly doing. We forgot that we're human beings, not human doings. So we have to be more present. And present means being calm, peaceful, blissful and as many moments throughout your day, so that they can then have a ripple effect on everything else. As I truly mentioned about manifestation and affirmation and, and bring it into your life. Because from a state of stress, fear.
Contraction, you cannot be the superhuman powerful being that you already are. And it doesn't matter, you know, where, where you're from, your, your background, your age, your gender, your. Your religion doesn't matter. We're all incredible beings. And I'm so proud and so happy that you're all, that you're all joining here. And I could see you're all breathing, I could see your smiles as well throughout, especially towards the very end of the journey. And of course as this, this will be also available for another week as a replay for free. So I always encourage people to, to do this again and again and again because every single time you'll be able to tap in to a deeper level, a deeper layer of stress that needs to be resolved, transmuted and used by the body. And as often as possible, if we can just get ourselves from the mental chatter and reconnect with our physical body to the energy and really feel that gut intuition, we are truly becoming then the cheerleaders for our own life. And I truly believe that, you know, breathing stress away is possible. So keep breathing consciously, keep smiling, consciously hug people because again, this is another amazing. Yet there you, Christina, I was just wishing you to smile. I was like, yes, there you go, Christina, smiling. Because once you start really hugging and connecting to people all around you through that hug, through the breath, through these moments of calmness and peace, you will truly see that this world is actually a very peaceful world. If we're able to see how nature is, we can see peace. Some humans might pretend that it's not or might make us feel that we're constantly in a state of stress and agitation and everything that's going on right now. But you know what? Watch a bird and watch a tree and watch a lake and then understand that you are part of that. You're not part of the narrative or the stories that are told. You're part of everything that nature earth has brought us. So this is my this is my wish for us all for humanity, for the world for us to all truly let bring the level of vibrational frequency up so that we can all truly experience love and laughter, peace and calm and befriend stress and then use stress. Many blessings to you all. Thank you so much for joining. Claudia, thank you so much. Monica in the back of house thank you everyone. Claire, Christina, Kim Fraguta, Evan, Monica, Irene.
Thank you so much.
