Holotropic Breathwork is one of the most powerful and effective techniques of experiential psychotherapy and deep self-exploration within Transpersonal Psychology. Its purpose is to achieve greater self-understanding, expansion of self-identity and to facilitate access to the roots of emotional and psychosomatic problems. The word ‘holotropic’ suggests overcoming internal fragmentation, as well as a person’s sense of separation from the environment.
It is based on the great healing and transformative power of expanded or non-ordinary states of consciousness (Holotropic states), which can occur spontaneously or through psychological practices, rituals, mystical experiences or deep meditation.
