Unwrapping the Greatest Gift - Presence - Brook - Aug 28, 9am EST - Fri

The live session, hosted by Jason R. Campbell, opened the Soma Breath Fest 2026 Summer Edition with a warm welcome to a global community of participants, acknowledging individual members and celebrating a birthday. Jason introduced the Soma Breath app, explaining its free and premium tiers, and emphasized the importance of integrating breathwork into daily rituals. Safety guidelines were provided, noting contraindications for breath retention (e.g., late pregnancy, medical conditions) and offering alternatives. The core theme, "Presence," was framed as a choice that eliminates lack and over‑thinking, with Brooke Absar leading a 36‑minute guided practice that combined rhythmic nasal‑to‑mouth breathing, breath holds, pelvic‑floor activation (the "bliss pump"), and a dance‑based warm‑up called the "breath rave." Brooke shared her personal journey—from corporate burnout to certified transformational coach, recent retreats in Austria, a Mindvalley event, and a music premiere with producer Umut—illustrating how breathwork transformed her life and career. Throughout the session, participants were encouraged to engage via reactions, share locations, and ask questions about eating, driving, and breath‑hold adjustments. The session concluded with reflections on the ripple effect of breathwork in personal and professional spheres, promotion of upcoming sessions and a special instructor‑program offer, and Brooke’s contact information for further coaching or instructor inquiries.

Welcome everybody to the Soma Breath Fest 2026 Summer Edition. I see we already have hundreds of you waiting right on time, and boy do I love starting on time. Let's see who's turning on their cameras and I can see your faces. Mariana, I see Twice Born Breathwork, good to see you. Monica Pinglin, good to see you. Dr. Kim, we got Corinne, I see Advanced Soma Breath Instructor, I see Cynthia Cunningham, Beverly, Andrea, Beta, Dika, Sabrina. And I'm gonna do a little sum— by the way, for those who usually join these events, you're probably familiar with Monica from our support team. I just want to take a little moment and start this off by saying happy birthday, Monica. She is here on her birthday showing up for all of you. And if you don't know who she is, don't worry. You might get to know her if you get closer to the Somi tribe. She's an amazing angel and we love her very much. And I want to make sure we get to acknowledge you right at the beginning of this session. For everyone here, I want to say a big welcome. My name is Jason R. Campbell. I'll be your host. I'll be introducing all the various amazing instructors that are going to be leading sessions throughout this incredible Breath Fest. We have 6 sessions. We had one yesterday. We have one starting very shortly and 4 more that will be following. And all of them are designed to help you you with nervous system reset, getting you to experience the power of breathwork, learning about how you can use your own breath to regulate yourself, to be able to change your state and get high in the process. What I mean by that is getting to a higher state of vibration, bringing you into places of peace, joy, abundance, and more. And this is exactly why we put this together completely free for all of you. I will say one thing here. Did you enjoy the music that was playing before we started the session? If you did know that this is one of our produced tracks here at Soma Breath, music is a big part of Soma Breath. So we always have music to support breathwork sessions as well as any kind of movement that happens when you do breathwork. And so if you've enjoyed that, know it is one of the tracks on the app. I'll ask the team, Monica, to post a link to the app. Who here already has a Soma Breath app? There's a free version. There's a member portion that's about $100 a year, and there's tons of breath tracks. You get to see all your favorite instructors leading sessions. There's a ton of live ones. There's some music tracks, and I'll a whole lot more. So definitely grab a copy of that if you don't have it yet on your phone, because we're going to be having 3 days of doing a reset of being able to be introduced and powerfully using the breathwork sessions. But the key thing is, how do we turn this into a ritual? How do we bring this as a part of our healthy lifestyles? Just like brushing your teeth is such a part of our normal routine, where does the breath fit to get you into have being in the heightened states to navigate the stresses of today is really what we want to bring forward. So if you do have that app, It definitely makes it much easier. Now, let me focus on all of you here. I know some of you have already shared where you're tuning in from. We do have a global tribe that joins this, and I would say a big welcome to mostly Europeans, I would assume, are getting a chance to participate now. It was the middle of the night for you on the kickoff session. So, take a moment and let me know where you're tuning in from, just typing in the city, country, or state in the chat. We'll get to see.

It'll be a powerful session, and something for those of you who are already instructors, it's going to be music you've never heard before. It's going to be a world premiere of a new track and a beautiful guided session, which brings me to just seeing who exactly is here. Yesterday we had over 70% of you who are completely new to Soma Breath. So if you're new, you've never done a Soma Breath session, this is the first time you're joining, type in 1. If you're having, uh, regular breath sessions with us, you've joined us before, if you joined yesterday, you are now a 2. And if you are currently an instructor in the process of becoming one, you can type in 3. And then we'll get to see. I would assume yesterday's session, since we had such a good time A ton of you have now become regulars. You've had a taste. We're excited to make sure that you continue to have the tools accessible to you. And here we go. We're seeing a ton of you are now become regulars in the process. So welcome to the tribe. We're just getting started. There's so much more that's going to be happening. And for the 41% of you who are brand new, well, welcome. All right. Welcome. Set high expectations. I know oftentimes it's like, so set low expectations. And I'm saying, no, no, no, set high expectations. You're about to have an incredible time. No matter what state that you are in, we're going to get you to have an experience that is truly going to help you self-regulate. It's going to help you change your state. You're going to experience the power of breathwork, whether you've never done breathwork before, if you've just never done Soma Breathwork before, you are in for something magical. And I'm so excited that you're here. We're going to make sure that we're spending the next hour to an hour and a half. I'd say we'll be done by 30 past the next hour, so call it 90 minutes together. You're going to experience breathwork. We're going to have a bit of movement. And for those who are feeling comfortable turning on their cameras, We might be doing a bit of a dance showcase as well. So turn on your camera if you're not too shy, and if you prefer to do this in the privacy of your home, you're free to do that as well. A couple things I want to say before I bring in Brooke to really take this session up is yes, there will be a replay. Matter of fact, if you missed yesterday's session, the replay is already up. There is a link that you can have access to which is going to take you right over here. The replay is the same link that you use to join the session today where we're going to be having unwrapping the greatest gift of Presence with Brooke. We also get to see right below the replays for the session that just passed yesterday is right here. And every other session that is coming up will be found on this page. And so be sure to check that out. You'll be able to save this in your bookmarks. I'll take a moment here. If it hasn't been dropped into the chat already, I'm going to take a moment to drop it into the chat. And so if you do that, this link, you save it, you can join the upcoming session, you can watch the replays, and we'll make sure that you are not missing out on anything extraordinary in the process.
Cool. All right.
Now, with that being said, again, we're going to be having about an hour and a half maximum together. I'm going to be introducing an incredible instructor and we're going to get to all breathe together. Are you guys ready for me to bring our today's session? If you're ready, type in ready in the chat. And last thing, show me you know how to use the react button. There's a little button, should be around right here. It could be a heart. And if you have any kind of emoji or thing you want to do as a reaction, I get to see it here or here if it's mirrored, and we know that we're ready to roll. This is really fun when we're the instructor and we're getting to lead sessions and we see these things pop up. Oh, I can feel the love. I told you to do it, but I still feel the love. Guys, Brooke has been somebody I've had the joy of working with over the last year as I've been involved with Soma Breath. She's an incredible instructor, but beyond that, she's just an incredible individual to work alongside. She has a background working in corporate, was crushing it and working really hard in a stressful and corporate environment. and at some point decided, I need to make a change, and took a leap of faith, jumped into the world of breathwork. From her first Breathe Together Sunday to becoming a certified master transformational coach, she has been able to lead incredible sessions, work with clients one-on-one, and help them deliver transformation. She now gets to travel the world, work with very, very senior individuals in leadership teams that are looking to change their state, self-regulate, enable them to lead with proper energy through the power of breathwork and more. And now, beyond just doing this through her breath practice, she's also a core part of the Soma Breath team, helping us deliver incredible events for people to have transformation while they're, they're getting certified or they're going for their own personal transformational journey. I'm sure she's going to share a bit more also about the recent events that we just had where she gets to connect with people individually, powerfully, and deliver transformation. And all of you are about to get to experience her live, so please Use the react button and the comments to give a warm, warm welcome to Brooke Absar, who's going to be leading today's session. Brooke, welcome, and we're so excited to have you here.
Hey everyone! Wow, what an intro! Thank you, Jason.
Well, a well-deserved intro. Thank you.
It's, uh, it's a beautiful present moment, isn't it, to be present with my tribe, a global tribe with you guys? And I keep seeing familiar faces, my somis from the recent retreats we had in the Alps in Austria. I'm seeing faces from my friends, family. That's super exciting. So I'm really honored and happy to be here.
And I'll give some context, which is you're actually taking some time away from your holiday to be here with the tribe after a well-deserved holiday. You had the busiest month creating some incredible events, and I thought that'd be very interesting. What have you been up to last month?
Oh yeah, it's been absolutely amazing. Um, well, I've been on a tour with Niraj for the last month, starting off with the Mindvalley event. We actually had our own Summer Breath event with the silent headsets, and, uh, it was, you know, incredible event with over 100 people breathing together. So from that on, we went to Austria for our 2 retreats. The first one was the Awakening Retreat. There was a beautiful intimate group of people just really wanting to connect with themselves and be ready for their next chapter and ready for that transformation to step into their true potential. And that was a fantastic retreat. And the second retreat after that was the Advanced instructor retreats. So this was very special, you know, coming together with your tribe, with your soulmates who are already instructors but looking to step up, looking to really help their clients using these further transformational advanced techniques and then bringing their vibes, you know, dancing and breathing together. It was super fun. So I see some of those faces. I saw Tiffany was driving. Raven I saw. And from previous retreats I saw Deb, Stevie. It's so good. I'm seeing David. Yeah, so our advanced retreat in the Alps was also spectacular. And we also had Niraj's birthday in between that we flew to Ibiza for. And it was... It was amazing. Niraj's gift from the universe was the eclipse. You know, I witnessed this, the most spectacular event there, watching the eclipse. It was incredible. And yeah, after a month of traveling 4 countries, you know, organizing and delivering these 3 events, it's very heart-filling. You know, it's fantastic. It's amazing to be able to create spaces for transformation, to connect with people that share similar visions, values, aspirations, and to really guide them, to help them, to handhold for their next chapter is really absolutely fantastic. So I'm so, so honoured to be a Summer Bright Transformational Coach and And to enable these experiences, you know, using that corporate skills that I have from that burnt-out version of me to the version of me that is so excited to be connecting with you all from my vacation. I'm currently in Bodrum, Turkey. So yeah, heart's full. So it was time for me now to really have a little rest. And fill my own cup so that I can continue overflowing, right? I can continue being present. And your presence is something super important for me, you know. So that's why I chose the theme, because when we are present, nothing actually is lacking. And most of us don't actually even know what being present really means. You know, how do I be more present? Like, my clients come to me, oh, my wife wants me to be more present with her. I want to be more present with my kids. You know, I want to be present in my body. You know, I want to feel myself. There's so much disconnect in the world, in a world of AI, world of, you know, overstimulation visually or auditory, you name it, right? So we We lose the spark of that connection, that intimacy with ourselves that comes with this very moment, comes with the breath. So breath is the shortcut to presence. And when we're present, like I said, nothing is lacking. It's just an overflow of abundance, of joy, of our true frequency. So yeah, I'm super excited. To practice presence with you. You know, I also see presence as a practice, as a choice. So thank you all for choosing to be here, choosing yourself, choosing to be present in this call. I really appreciate each of you.
Baroque, you gave me a little challenge before the call. And when it comes to sharing some of the contraindications, since I'm an instructor in training, I was going to go ahead and share those, and you can tell me if I've done a good job.
I'm sure you will.
So for everybody here, you're about to go and experience a Soma Breath journey. And during this, there are some phases where you will be doing breath retention, both on an exhaled state and an inhaled state. And what I'd like to advise is for anybody in later stages of pregnancy, anybody with existing medical conditions or severe breathing issues, know that these breath retentions, although in a healthy a normal state will bring a lot of benefits and will encourage you to hold and retain your breath as long as it's comfortably possible. But if for any reason you have concerns around doing breath retentions, know that you can continue doing the breathwork sessions while just breathing in rhythm and smooth rhythmical breathing in through the nose, out through the mouth, and you'll be able to breathe through the belly in the process. So if you have any concerns around your breath retentions, know that you can just continue breathing in the rhythm throughout these retention phases If you have any of those concerns. Brooke, how did I do?
Very good. Yeah, also I just want to add that, guys, listen to your body. Yeah, your somatic intelligence. There will— I'll give you a few tips and information about what you're about to do because there's a lot of new people, right? The newcomers, you're all welcome. You're about to experience something quite powerful. You know, you will discover the power of your breath. And with specific Sama Breath techniques and music being a big part of it, right? So basically there is a count in the music, so we will be rhythmically breathing. So you will hear the count, inhaling to the 4, exhaling to the 4 for the first round, for example. Then count will change, but don't worry, I'll be guiding you the whole way through. So if you miss If you miss the rhythm, you know, a little bit, or if at any point it became too intense for you, you can simply go back to your natural breath and pick up the rhythm again when you can. Okay, so this is your experience. The number one rule is to have fun, right? And yeah, I just wanted to add that if at any point it becomes intense, please feel free to— Yeah, I'm just gonna go back to my natural breath. Go back to your natural breath and come back again to the rhythmic breath. The journey I designed for today is quite a relaxing one, but it goes faster towards the end. Okay, so the last round will be a little bit faster rhythm. Again, listen to your body, go for it, it will make you feel high on your own supply. But yeah, how you feel, how you, how, you know, far you want to take your practice is totally up to you. I am your guide today. For the breath holds, as Jason mentioned, after each phase of rhythmic breath, I'll be guiding you to breath retention phase. Okay? It's important on the exhale holds, I would love everybody to give it your best shot, your absolute maximum when you're holding your breath. All right, so at that phase, it's very natural that you will want to breathe, right? Because your system isn't used to not breathing. So there's a little tip for you there. You can take a quick sip of air, exhale, and hold again until I guide you, I take you out of that breath hold. So it's really Don't want to talk about too much about the technique. It's the rhythmic breath, right? It's the breath holds, the sip of air, the recovery breaths, as many as you want, but really pushing past the comfort zone in the breath holds. As I'm guiding, I'll introduce some advanced techniques. I don't want to, you know, put you too much in your left brain and give you tasks to follow already because I'm your guide. I'll guide you. But there's some advanced techniques we will use. We call it the bliss pump. If everybody knows what pelvic floor muscles are, give me a thumbs up. Because we'll be using the pelvic muscles during the rhythmic breath phase, but I will actually guide you through that. Okay? And for those, again, first time experiencing Soma Breath, it's good to know that you'll be breathing into your nose. Out to your mouth. Yeah, it's smooth, connected breaths, so there's no tension whatsoever in the rhythmic breath phase and even in the breath holds. So your breath is like an ocean wave, it's super relaxed and continuous, right? And we'll be paying attention to diaphragmatic breathing. A lot of us are chest breathers. That's actually stressful breathing. Right. And like, think about it, all your life you breathe in a certain way, so you don't expect it to switch in like in 5 minutes. It takes some practice. But if you can just bring awareness that you, when you breathe nasal, nasal breathe anyway, you will be using your diaphragm. So just check that your breath is actually expanding. In your belly towards your back. There's something we can bring awareness to in your daily life as well. Nasal breathing and diaphragmatic breath is really good for us. It activates actually the, the rest and digest response of our autonomic nervous system. So these are pretty much the information and tips I can give you about the technique, about the session. But do you have any questions before we start?
There's a couple I'll bring up. How long is the actual breath session once we get started?
Well, we'll start with a dance, so that's like 6 minutes. The best way to become present is to drop into the body, yeah? Switch from that mind to come into the body-mind. So we will actually Activate the soma. Soma means body in Greek. So we will have a little dance-off, and then we will— our— my set is 36 minutes to be precise, right? And then we will, um, obviously I'll bring you back. I'll, uh, I'll chat to you if you have any questions, comments afterwards. But I think Jason's estimation for The time is accurate, will be done within about an hour time, I guess.
We had Duarte asking about the fact that they have eaten not too long ago. Is there any special advice?
I mean, if the thing is, if you don't feel too full, like it doesn't affect your breathing, that's okay. It's— I don't suggest eating before you do any breathing practice. Because it's more challenging for the body. But it's okay if you've eaten, you know. Just again, just listen to your experience, listen to your body. If at any point it becomes too much, you know, doing the rhythmic breath, you can just go back to your natural breath and pick up with the rhythm again. And you can go easy with the breath holds. You know, I'll be guiding you out. I'll say, push past your comfort zone, keep holding your breath. But, um, yeah, you don't have to. So listen to your body.
All right. I have a piece of advice for Steve is that you should not be doing this breathwork or dancing while you're driving your car. And so I would suggest one of two things. One, pull over and do the breathwork. And if you want to step out of your car and dance, I'll leave that up to you. Or second, it might be best to experience this through the replay. Uh, you should have your eyes on the road. and focused on your driving, not any distractions, and especially not doing breath retentions while you are driving, as tempting as it can be. So that is one. Maggie had a quick question around, okay, we know when we're on a full exhale, if I'm pushing past my comfort zone, but if I do need, I can do that and I can extend that retention a little more.
Exactly.
If I'm on the third phase when we're doing a deep inhale, And we're holding on an inhale, and let's say I can't hold it for the length of time, what do I do?
I mean, you, you can actually let go, exhale, but I'll be— I'll hopefully be timing it well so we will exhale altogether. You know, I won't keep you too long in the in-breath hold. Um, but I tend to give this, all this info and guidance as I'm guiding because a lot of new people, it's It's a lot of information to remember, but you have an idea about the technique now. Yeah, rhythmic breathing, out-breath retention. I'll take you out of that exhale and hold, then we will inhale and hold, and there's a couple of tricks. There is little energy activations that I'm gonna guide you to do. Okay? So yeah, let's keep the magic there and— Yeah, you just go for it and see how it feels in your body. Newcomers, I'm so excited for you. Do you know the first time I tried Summer Breath, I was absolutely like, wow, what is this? I didn't even know what breathwork is. Yeah, I fell in love with the music. I felt so high, you know. I still like getting high. But on things that makes me feel great about my body, about my health, about my mind, you know, serves my purpose rather than stuff that gets me high that, you know, really doesn't serve me. So I'm really excited for you guys. If it's your first time, go for it and just— Listen to the guidance and yeah, hopefully it'll be an amazing experience for you as well because I got hooked on the first time and I started practicing it every day, literally by myself. And then I started dragging people in to do it with me. I'm like, oh my God, you have to experience this. And then, you know, I used to just force my friends, family to do it with me, and then I did the 21-Day Awakening, our flagship course of Soma Breath, then that was a game changer. I was like, right, I cannot go back to the life that has been eating me from inside and really preventing me from my highest self-expression. So I said, okay, I'm gonna find a way to teach this to the world, to tell people how amazing they can feel by just breathing alone to this extraordinarily amazing music. And here I am, you know, here I am, like, teaching breathwork globally, witnessing instructors in these 2-day trainings we do, city trainings. There's a few of them coming up if any of you are interested. Witnessing them stepping into their power You know, them now guiding others, and that's the pebble effect that expands, doesn't it? Just when somebody starts connecting with their breath, starts that breath awareness journey, because it all starts with awareness, like life cannot be the same in the most positive way. There's awareness, it spreads onto the other areas of your life. you know, awareness in all areas. So yeah, I'm super excited and I can't wait to get started. Are we all good? Can we maybe test the music and start? And I just keep seeing your faces, like all of my somis. I saw Kelly, Andrea as well from London Level 1 trainings. I'm seeing my somis.
Hi, Renata!
It's so good, guys. It's amazing. You know, I'm still on all the WhatsApp groups of the retreats and trainings we do, and this tribe is honestly extraordinary. Just so lovely seeing you step into your power and take this practice, take it further, you know, to your clients, and then they take it to their workplaces. they take it to their family homes. That's the pebble effect. That's the, you know, more harmonious people living in harmony. They're connected to their breath. If they're feeling peace inside, you know, they're gonna reflect that peace outside, won't they? So yeah, very powerful tool to use to connect us. So let's breathe together, but after Dance. Can we start?
Go for it.
Yay!
Shall we, uh, check the sound first? You guys want to dance? Who wants to dance? Put it in the chat. Say, yeah, I want to dance. Right, do you hear this?
Yes, we do.
You hear it?
I did. Now you pause it.
Yeah, I paused it, but is it loud enough?
I think so.
Let's dance!
Yay!
It's loud enough? Yeah, it's quite loud on my end.
Yep, it's working.
Okay, cool. Everybody, please, can you put your cameras on and stand up because I want to see you dancing. Let's groove and dance together. First, I just want to tell you, when you stand up, we first start with the little shake. Yeah, it's it's really amazing to release tension in the body. So when you stand up, sorry, on your feet, so you basically feel your body weight on your feet. Right? And you start shaking gently, like that vibration coming from the bottom of your soul to the upper body. So, and we intensify it, we increase the shake. You know them power plates? Everyone remembers power plates? The ones that you, you just stand on it and they start to vibrate, like as if you're on one of them. Okay, and then we're just gonna dance.
Yay!
All right, everybody ready? Okay, imagine yourself on that vibrational panel and start shaking. You can close your eyes if you want.
Yes.
And just relax the hands, the arms, and Shape, shape, shape by Red. Shake, shake. Increase the intensity of your shake. Relax the arms, the legs. Yeah, as if you can't control them. Let them be free.
Shake.
Yay, Sarah! Guys, you ready?
We're gonna take it up a notch. Now let's take a deep breath in. Deep breath in. Hold, hold your breath. Feel your power. Feel your frequency. And exhale. Exhale. Yes, feel that heartbeat. Ready to take it up a notch? Are you ready to go?
Woo!
Crazy jump!
David, hello! My somis!
Oh yeah, Brandon, I like your moves. Shake, shake, shake, vibrate. You guys look amazing! Let's take a deep breath in, deep breath in. Hold your breath, squeeze your pelvic muscles, feel the energy vibrating, pulsating through the soma. Keep holding. Ready, sit, release.
Ah, great!
Release and shake.
Tiffany!
Last 40 seconds, let's breathe in a rhythm.
Ha, ha, ha.
Inhale, exhale. Inhale, exhale. Squeeze pelvic on the inhale and let go.
Squeeze, exhale. Together, guys, when I say one, Big collective inhale, you ready?
3, 2, 1, inhale. Hold your breath, squeeze pelvic floor muscles, connect to each other's heartbeat, each other's love, let's thrive, and exhale. Ahhhhh. Okay, how is everyone doing? How is the vibe now? Are you more high vibe? If that's your morning, that's how you start your day. If it's your afternoon, it's like a little Boost of energy, shot of coffee or whatever. If it's your evening, it's maybe something left there for you to release. Good. Raise your level of vibrational energy. Everyone knows newcomers. So the L O V E at Summerbread Language stands for level of. Vibrational energy, right? And everything we create in life is through that vibration that we feel in our body. So this is how we increase the level of vibrational energy, right? Okay, this is the time if you want to just get some water quick. Bathroom if you need to, otherwise we're gonna be breathing for the next 40 minutes. Yeah, dancing and breathwork together, we call it breath rave. So Niraj, it was incredible at Mindvalley, everyone was breathing and dancing together, and you know, our famous Summer Breath anthem, I Love My Life. What? I love my life. So, and people without Niraj saying it in any parties, people were going for it themselves. It became such a movement, you know, that people really enjoy because it works. It gets your energy going. It raises your vibration. So it's super powerful. Breathing and dancing together.
Yeah.
Everyone ready? Have some water, and then cool. You can practice this lying down, your back straight. Or you can sit up again, your back straight, okay? Comfort is key. Supercharge, supercharge. My clients love this part of my sessions, gets everyone at the same point ready for the breathwork. Beautiful, yes. Preparing the soma, the vessel, for the breath. Oh, you hear people talking in the background? I don't hear anyone talking. I think everyone's muted.
No, it's basically in the background of your conference room. I do hear a bit of background noise. As soon as it gets started, I think background noise canceling will kick in and we should be good.
Okay, I am at a resort in the conference room, so, and it's, yeah, okay, I'll start the music.
Ready?
Okay, everybody, take a comfortable position. If you're lying down, uncross your legs, put your arms by your side. And just connect with your breath. Bring your awareness to any sound you can hear. Let the music enter you.
Let the music enter you.
Your breath do what it's supposed to do at this moment. You're not trying to control anything. You're simply arriving to this present moment, and you're allowing the mind to finish the last thought. And maybe you put your Asleep. You're just simply connecting with the sound, and with my voice will be your guide in this journey. You trust my voice. My voice will keep you safe. In this moment, In this moment, you close the door to the external world and you greet yourself with curiosity, that full presence, like you hold space for yourself. What does being present mean to you? Does it mean being completely zen and relaxed, or does it mean you can sit with yourself? You can welcome any emotions, any sensations. Does it mean you don't leave yourself when something a little challenging comes up? When you connect, you allow whatever there is to express. Embrace itself, whatever emotion, thought. Yeah, does presence mean not leaving your body, not abandoning yourself, to sit with a challenging emotion, to embrace a joyous moment? To allow space, to recognize the magnificence of this journey called life. To allow sensations, whatever you may be hearing right now, or maybe there is a Maybe there's a certain taste you can taste in your mouth. Maybe there's a breeze on your skin. You recognize the temperature of the room. Maybe you bring your attention to your fingertips, the parts of your body. So we're gonna take this presence to every breath. We take in the rhythmical breathing phase, we're gonna come closer to ourselves, to truly connect to the heart. So we are switching from the rational mind to the mystical concept of the heart. With each breath. And if presence, if this moment has a color for you, allow that color to come forward, the first color in your mind, as we will breathe this color each beat.

Because the world is always smiling, because life is your friend. And slowly, slowly, you can open your eyes and see how things look around you.
Yeah.
Yeah, with new sense of awareness, a depth of connection to self. Thank you for all your comments. I am melting. Welcome back, everybody. No rush. Thank you for breathing with me. Thank you for trusting me. Newcomers, I'm curious how it was, your first summer breathing. And if anybody wants to share, take the mic, you're more than welcome. I just want to make sure everybody is back, so maybe use the react button to send me a heart or a thumbs up that you're fully back from the beach.
Excellent.
Oh, wonderful. The love stands for the level of vibrational energy. Good. And how was my new track? This is produced by an epic music producer and opera singer, my friend Umut from Türkiye. I kind of co-created this. I'm so grateful for him. I hope you liked the track. Somis, instructors, please comment. How did it feel, the track? Ah, good, the comments are flowing. Good. Ah, Raven, thank you. I'm glad you liked it. Yeah, Jason, if you leave me here like this, I'm just gonna be reading the comments And smiling like a Cheshire Cat.
I'm not here to stop you at the end of a beautiful—
I am so blissed out right now as well.
Everyone, ladies and gentlemen, I did tell you to raise your expectations, and of course you delivered even more. Broke, that was a beautiful track. Thank you.
Oh, thank you.
On behalf of everyone, I think, um, it's the perfect embodiment of the power you get to hold as an instructor, and you do it so lovingly. And people that come to your live events all rave about how incredible all the sessions you deliver are. And so thank you for sharing the gift with everyone here. I think at some point we were just over 400 people that got a chance to participate. I know some people are going to have a chance to listen to this through the replay. And, uh, as we mentioned, this was a music premiere, and so you got a chance to share with the tribe here. That was really cool. Yes.
So it's good. Yeah.
Very, very good. So, um, with that, honestly, um, like I shared a little bit about how I can work with you, what you've been able to share. You've made such a transformation to embodying becoming a breathwork instructor yourself. Um, I remember we had a chat a while back where you got to share, you know, some of the things that you love the most about this work. And I was kind of probably thinking about this is exactly the moment where you fall the most in love with being an instructor. Would you share a bit more about that?
Oh my God. Yeah. You just, I just feel quite emotional right now as you said this, because nothing quite matches this feeling, you know, just, just guiding people through these states. Yeah, and those states actually define our life, how we make our choices, how we navigate through life, how we show up every day. Yeah. So, as Soma Breath instructors, there's one thing, the most important thing we help our clients in the classes, people can change their state. By just breathing alone to the epic music of Summer Breath. How powerful is that, guys?
Yeah.
And now imagine these 400 people going out in the world, you know, starting day of work or taking their children to school or, you know, replying to an email. How do you think they would do this? From a much centered and connected point of view, right? Because we live in a world with so much overstimulation, we're disconnected from nature, yeah? So we constantly be living in this digital world. So a Soma Breath instructor can take you to the state That is your zero point. You can just choose your state and create your experience. So it's a very empowering thing, right? So guiding people through these journeys, just using breath and music, is, is something like I can't really describe with words. You only feel it. And that's what I hear from the instructors that I train. You know, in London trainings, for example, we've got one coming up in October, early October, that when they go up there and guide their first session, you know, they were like, oh my God, I've done it! You know, nothing quite matches that experience. And this expands, it doesn't stay in you. It spreads to your family, to your friends. your workplace. And this, this is how I want to exist, to be honest with you. I wanna, I wanna create my state, you know, and I want to be in charge of my emotions. I want to be the leader of my life, and I'm teaching people how to do that. And the more of us can do that, the better world it is, isn't it?
So yeah. It worked.
Any of you, like, considering, you know, becoming a Breathwork instructor, a facilitator, this has been life-changing for me. And I've progressed pretty fast because I'm obsessed with this work. Yeah. And the course, the information, the music, it's just... You know, so full, full of love. So I recommend it for anybody here.
I can tell.
That is in the world of transformation. Yeah, I can't— sorry, I can't hide my passion. I talk about it in the supermarket. I talk about breath in a supermarket, in a GP when I'm queuing, in a, you know, you name it. I talk about it with the receptionist here in this resort.
Well, I'll do this. Um, I'm going to be wrapping up the session, but just out of curiosity, anybody here is considering becoming an instructor with Soma Breath, just type in a 1 in the chat. And what I can do is just stay a few moments. I'll share with you guys— I mean, we're running the Breath Fest with a really cool promotion, uh, for those who are looking to become an instructor. But I want to make sure that we cover some of the logistics, and, uh, and then we'll be able to have a few closing words from you, Brooke. And so I'm going to take it from you for a minute here.
Yeah, yeah, no worries. I can read the comments.
Go ahead. And first, acknowledge the incredible session. This was our second session of our Breath Fest. Once again, a big shout out to Brooke. This was powerful, unwrapping the greatest gift— presence. We're going to do our best to get this replay up and running as soon as possible for those who want to re-experience this again. And if you've missed yesterday's session, know that we had— the reset begins with Stephen. This replay is already available. And next up, we are going to have a beautiful session with the one and only Claudia Solis. This will be happening at 7 PM Eastern Time, 4 PM Pacific, 7 AM for those in Asia such as Singapore, Hong Kong, and, uh, Bali or the Philippines. And so do add it to your calendar when you go to the page where you have all the details to be able to join. Know that for the upcoming session, you can always add them to your calendar so it'll show up in your correct time zone. For example, we have the session with Claudia right now. You can add it to calendar right here, and that way it's going to pop up whenever it is in your current time zone. And we'll have this updated for the next session as soon as this one is over. And you can already go ahead and add all the future sessions that are coming up. We're going to have David Gennacan joining us talking about I Am a Magnet. We have a deep release with Lisa as well as a rich reset to ritual with Niraj. So know that our next session, we are going to keep this going, and we're making a powerful weekend with our Breath Fest event. So you get to experience the power in so many different ways using the Soma Breath Methodology. And for those who are going to consider becoming an instructor, we do have a pretty cool offer that we're going to be making for those who are considering it. So stick around And if you don't already have the Soma Breath app, you'll be able to access so many tracks and more through that. So we'll make sure to drop, uh, to drop this into the chat. If you don't already have the Soma Breath app, there is a free membership as well as a premium tier that's about $100 a year. And in there, tons of breath journeys that you get to experience. And we're going to have some more stuff from Brooke coming on there as well. So definitely grab that. I want to say a big thank you once again to everyone who are choosing themselves and showing up for Breathfest. We're just getting started, and I would love to throw it back to you, Brooke, to do some closing words, and then I'm going to get a chance to speak about our instructor program.
Well, I was just reading your comments. Um, my heart is so full, honestly. Thank you so much. I mean, the closing words is I chose this theme of presence because This is where we have a choice. When we are present, there is no lack. When we are present, there is no overthinking. There is no, you know, keep being in the same loop of thoughts, of habits. So we have to find a way to be present, right? We have a lot of pressure in daily life, in this modern life. And we need to find a way to release that pressure, to release and connect. Yeah. So we have different strategies. We can release through unhelpful strategies, but we can also release the pressure through choosing breath. You can do this practice yourself, you know, at Summer Breath app, you can literally take Take 5 minutes of your day to feel present and see how your day unfolds after that. So yeah, I see this as filling your own cup first and you overflow, and from that overflow, that's just source of abundance, of, you know, from inner source of wealth. And the shortcut to that is definitely your breath, so use it. And anybody here, any coaches, therapists, anyone in, in the human transformation field, please feel free to contact me on my Instagram.

We're growing our SOMI tribe, and Brooke is definitely one of our matriarchs in the, in the, in this great tribe that really brings the great energy. So thank you, Brooke. And with that, I will say we're right on the 90 minutes that we promised. I'll spend a few extra seconds just for people who want to take the next step as becoming instructors. I will walk you into what to expect. So Brooke, thank you once again. For everyone else, look, we have thousands of people we've certified as breathwork instructors. We're a community of over 4,000 instructors globally. And the fact is we need more. Breathwork is growing as a modality. If all of you are seeing yourselves here, uh, is because you've been curious about it. You've heard about it. And this is a trend that is happening worldwide. People are seeing breathwork as a modality that brings results fast, powerful results that are healthy, doesn't require any altered state or substances that could have some negative or, um, side effects. We're seeing is that people are looking for— the gyms and the studios are looking for it, the executives are looking for it. People are looking for a modality that works and work with people that are professionally trained. We have an incredible instructor certification program that makes sure that you know exactly how to do like Brooke, how to use your voice during the breath sessions with the music created with Soma to guide people through powerful transformation. We also have in this training everything to make sure that you understand the science as to why specific breathing pattern heals specific parts, do specific effects, so you can bring the results to your clients. And then everything that comes from learning how to facilitate a classroom from the start of somebody walking in to somebody walking out. We train you to become a breathwork professional. And using breathwork modality, you don't only learn one technique, but you get a whole inventory of breath techniques. So you are the most qualified breathwork instructor in the field that is in demand because you are Soma Breath certified. If this is a pathway that you're looking for— because we have 2 major types of people that come to us. One of them are existing holistic practitioners who know if I add breathwork to my practice, I get to do more impact with my client, and I get to expand my practice, generate more revenue, because I'm bringing the most in-demand transformational modality. We want to talk to you. We want to see how we can support, grow your practice. And for some of you who might be going down a similar journey as what you've seen with Brooke, which is you are working in the current field and you're potentially looking to supplement your income or perhaps entirely replace your income, We have hundreds of instructors who have joined the program, started offering classes, and have completely quit their full-time job to become breathwork instructors and replace their income and generate even more. If this is something you might be curious about and would like to learn more, we have an application process for you to come and join us as a breathwork instructor. All you have to do is click on the link that I'll ask for Monica to put into the chat so you can read more about the program.

We will be able to see what pathways exist based on learning online or learning in person. Are you looking to become an instructor or a transformational coach? Let's have that conversation and see if whatever it is that we offer for Soma Breath can align with the path that you're looking to create for yourself. It's a free call. We'll be able to discuss strategy as well as getting you into a place of vision and flow. We do call them vision and flow calls. And if we see there is a match, we'll present to you what is the right pathway with Soma Breath. And at a minimum, by showing up to these calls, you'll get a chance to have somebody walk you through designing a lifestyle for either a transition or an enhancement, depending on where you are right now. So any questions you might have, our team is waiting for you. There are limited slots, so during Breath Fest we're going to be making this offer. A lot of you are going to be booking calls early, so I would suggest to set up your appointment earlier And then you'll get a chance to be able to speak with one of our team members. They will take good care of you, and we hope to be able to welcome you into our instructor community. As I mentioned, we're about 4,000 instructors right now. We need more, and we hope that we get a chance to see you join inside this program. So this is the pathway. So you get a chance to join as our instructor program. A link is put into the chat so you guys get a chance to click on that and apply, and We'll get to see you on the upcoming sessions for Breath Fest. So our next one coming up with Claudia, you do not want to miss this. It's going to be an incredible manifesting session around being able to choose the reality you live in. We've brought you a reset, we've given you the power of presence, and now we're going to change the reality and get you to be in a much bigger manifesting space than you ever thought before. It is happening at 7 PM Eastern time. And we're so excited to have you be a part of our Breath Fest 2026 Summer Edition. So big thank you, much love. And let me see if there's any questions that are coming up that I can answer for those of you who are still here. So, um, Veronique, if you are looking for timing— so some of you might say like, okay, I'm interested, but I don't know if I can start right now. Just book the call and have the conversation. One of the things we'll discuss is timelines, and if there's a plan that we can generate with you That might be a 1-year plan, a 6-month plan. This depends on what's happening in your life. We'll navigate that with you and see if there's something that aligns and makes sense. For Living Right Now is asking if there's live or online. We have both. We have some people that prefer not to be able to travel, want to stay in their area and do the full course online. That is definitely a pathway. We do have some live events where people combine their digital training with an in-person experience. If you'd like to have a chance to meet someone like Brooke, Uh, we do have a training happening in London, and we're going to have amazing instructors that are there, and you'll be with a tribe that graduate together. So those are beautiful experiences, highly recommend it. Mention to the person that you're having your Vision Flow call if you want to join in person. For all Europeans, the London event coming up is going to be the exciting one for you. For those who are stateside, we have one happening in Austin, Texas, which is going to be happening next month. So that is something big, big will. Yes, Austin, Texas is coming up next. Call early and we'll be able to lock you in at a good rate and make sure that you get the powerful training with an amazing tribe. So for those who are curious about the length of the course, it does depend on which level of instructor training you take. We have, um, we have people that'll take a year to go through the entire certification. We have some that'll take the first modules to get completed within a month. Which will allow you to get started with giving breathwork classes. So I would say for those who are thinking, how do I start generating new revenue as soon as possible? Within a month, you will be qualified to be able to host your very first classes, whether you're doing them online or in person. And again, talk about your timelines and your learning schedule. Some people have a few hours a week. The entire online learning has a one-on-one call component so that you can do it on your own time. There are some regular practice sessions, there's some learn at your own pace, so it's definitely going to be something that can fit within your schedule. And if you're doing an in-person training such as the one that we're doing in Austin or London, it is a 2-day weekend training, and so you'll be able to get certified and pass— oh, look at these beautiful balloons— um, you'll get a chance to be certified within 2 days. We also have a more in-depth experiential event. It's more of a retreat that will be happening in Bali. So if anybody would love to travel to Bali, Indonesia, and spend 7 days getting your certification and having a transformational experience over 7 days, book the call, apply, have that conversation. We'll walk you through what are the different pathways that exist, because there's a lot of different ones. So we want to get to know who you are, we want to see what other plans you're looking to create, and if it is a We will look for the pathways that meets what your goals are, your timelines are, and what your financial constraints are. A lot of people are wondering, do we have any kind of payment plans available? Absolutely. We will build a plan that fits your budget so that we can see if you are motivated and excited to become an instructor. We can meet you where you are financially to get you into a space where you get to generate income as an instructor and have success under your belt. Lydia, Lydia, I know you've asked me a few times about the 21-Day Awakening with Niraj. I'll send you a link so that you can go into the community and add that into your calendar for next week. There is no call today, but I've seen you message that a few times, so I want to acknowledge you there. Um, call need to be in September. Yeah, if you can't find anything available in August, we have until August— sorry, September 4th for you to book a call. So lock it in. Um, and yeah, Monica, um, Look, we have some trainings that start at $2,000, and then depending on payment plans, for as low as $500 upfront and then some future payment plans. So if you're wondering around the cost, again, it depends. Are you going for just a foundational partial, partial instructor program or full advanced instructor or transformational coach? This will range. So when you book that call, you'll get a chance to see what are the different programs, which one fits for you, what you're looking to create. Do you have a lot of one-on-one clients? Are you looking to work in a group? We have that flexibility to work with you, and we'll do that through the conversation. Okay. Yeah, you'll have a few slots that are available to book. This is a this is just a conversation for you to set a plan. So I would say if you can do it over the weekend, the team has made themselves available for the weekend for you because we know a lot of you are going to be booking through the breath fest. So book one of the slots that's available now. I think you can book all the way to Monday. And lock that in. Please show up on time. We're going to have a lot of people jumping in, and we want to be able to help as many people as possible put together that learning plan. And I think I've covered all the questions that have come in. Let me there is a question about London. Okay, let me just pull that up for you. So for anybody who's looking to go to the Soma Breath October. Their link here is for the London retreat, and so here you go. So for London, it's happening the 3rd, 4th of October. We have a beautiful space that will be hosting this retreat. It'll be a two-day certification training. If you want to hear some of the stories of people that have just completed, like everyone who walks away from these trainings has some of the most personal transformation, and they're ready to go start hosting sessions right after. After. So you have people like Brooke, like Nigel, who are going to be there. And oh my God, um, ah, Kira! I was like, I'm having a blank. Kira, who's one of our wonderful instructors as well, she was part of the trainers of our last Breath Fest as well. So beautiful venue, incredible team. Um, you definitely want to check this out. So if you're already an instructor, it's $1,000 to get your live upgrade. If you just want to sign up with both your instructor training and be able to have the live component, it's $2,500. One thing to note on our live training, on the 31st of August, the price is increasing. So for those who are particularly considering the London event, I would book that call now, get your questions answered, and get the best deal. If you're considering going to an online training, you have a few extra days. But if, if London is something you're thinking about, book your call now, talk before the end of the month, you're going to save some extra money. And I think, uh, I think that's it, guys. Thank you, Lydia. I'm going to send you a link right now so you can go into your members area. You're talking about something that's very unrelated to the Breath Fest, but I want to make sure you're taken care of since I have you here. Typically you just write to support@somabreath.com. They always give you the answers as fast as they can. But since I have you here, I just sent you a message privately It's a link into the community, and when you click there, you're going to see there's a list of events. You'll be able to go and add that one to your calendar. If you find any issues in the process, just write to support. But that link I just sent you will at least take you to the community, and you'll be able to see the live events. Um, and for those who are wondering what the hell did I just talk about, it has nothing to do with what you're doing here. I'm just offering some support to Lydia, who is looking to find the link for her next event, which is a 21-day awakening she's doing Week, and ladies and gentlemen, I think we are complete. I will say much love again. Replay will be available soon. Next session at 7 p.m. This has been Breath Fest Session Two. Enjoy tonight. Tonight's session, I will not be there. Gary is going to be the host. I will be busy out here as my.
