AIR MODULE - Deep Healing
Deep Healing | Trauma-Informed Facilitation
Breathwork has a direct and powerful impact on the nervous system. It can open, regulate, soften — and it can also overwhelm if it is not held with skill, awareness, and attunement. This module exists because understanding trauma and the nervous system is not optional when working with breath.
In this training, we explore how trauma lives in the body, how the nervous system responds under stress, and what this means for facilitation. We move beyond techniques and into presence, pacing, and relational safety.
The Air Module weaves together nervous system education, somatic practices, regular breathwork journeys, meditation, and integration spaces. There is a strong focus on self-exploration — because the depth to which you can hold others is directly connected to how well you know your own system.
Silence, slowing down, and integration are essential parts of this work. Not everything needs to be activated or expressed. Learning when to do less, when to pause, and when to simply stay is a core part of trauma-informed leadership.
Included in the Air Module, Deep Healing:
Understanding Trauma
Deepen your understanding of trauma and how it lives in the body and nervous system — both in you as a facilitator and in the people you work with.
Your Nervous System as a Resource
Learn to relate to your own nervous system as a primary tool for facilitation. Regulation, attunement, and self-awareness become the foundation for holding others safely.
Somatic & Systemic Modalities
Explore modalities such as somatic embodiment, body-oriented practices, and family constellation work, and how they can be woven into breathwork in a grounded and responsible way.
Daily Breathwork & Somatic Practice
Engage in regular breathwork sessions and somatic practices to support your own healing process and deepen your embodied understanding of the work.
Personal Exploration
You will be invited into honest self-inquiry — noticing your patterns, responses, and edges, and gently exploring the parts of you that are often left unseen.
Embodied & Trauma-Informed Leadership
Through your own healing and regulation, you develop the capacity to lead from clarity, presence, and nervous system awareness — rather than technique or performance.
Meditation & Integration
Meditation and integration practices are woven throughout the module to support digestion, grounding, and long-term integration of the experiences.
Silence & Spaciousness
There is a strong emphasis on silence, slowing down, and allowing space. Not everything needs to be processed or expressed — learning when to pause is a vital part of this work
Please note
This module is designed to support both your personal healing journey and your development as a trauma-informed facilitator. Because of the depth of the work, it requires a stable level of self-resourcing and commitment.
The process may evoke strong emotions and bring you into unfamiliar inner territory. You will be fully supported throughout the module, and personal responsibility, honesty, and self-care are essential aspects of participation.
This module is co-facilitated with Katrin Heuser.
