Breathe for Resilience
Cold Dip & Breathwork Day Workshop
10am - 3pm
£90
This day workshop will introduce you to the benefits of good functional breathing and cold exposure in a beautiful location on Ashdown Forest.
Most of us adopt some poor breathing patterns over our lives without realising it, and this can affect our physical and mental health, our sports performance and how resilient we are.
You will learn some breathing exercises to improve your resilience. We will do a mindful walk whilst practising some of these breathing exercises.
We will then learn how to prepare for cold water immersion by using our breath. We will also cover the risks and safety issues to consider when planning a cold water swim. Then we will have a cold water dip/swim!
Aldo's famous Italian soup, homemade bread, cakes and biscuits and hot drinks are included.
