Stillness changes everything
Trauma-informed breathwork for women seeking space to listen, reflect, and reconnect
One-to-one breathwork sessions
Sessions are a space to slow down and be with what’s present. We work one to one, moving at a pace guided by your body and nervous system, rather than pushing toward any particular outcome. The intention is not to fix or change anything, but to create space to really listen to what is within you.
I work with Introspective Breathwork®, which uses conscious, connected breathing alongside somatic practices and music. You remain in control throughout the session, with the option to pause, slow down, or change direction at any time.
As the body begins to feel safer and more supported, it can become easier to hear yourself beneath the noise that life can bring. What you’ve been holding may start to soften or shift, or you may begin to see things with more clarity, whether that comes through emotion, sensation, insight, or a deeper sense of being in tune with your intuition. The work is about creating room for you to see what paths, signals, or possibilities are available when you are more in touch with yourself.
How sessions work
We begin by taking time to arrive, allowing you to settle into the space and notice what’s present for you that day. There’s no need to have a particular intention or to know what you want to work on. We can talk it through on the day.
As we move into the breath, you’re guided to stay connected to your body and your own experience, with the option to adjust or pause whenever you need to. The breathing is circular, conscious and connected, and you’re encouraged to listen closely to what your body is communicating.
Each session unfolds differently. Some are quiet and subtle, others can be more expressive. You might notice sensations, emotions, memories, or moments of clarity, or you may simply experience a sense of slowing down and becoming more present. There’s no right way to experience a session.
We always leave time to rest and integrate, so whatever has been noticed or shifted has space to settle before you leave. Often, it’s in this slowing down that things become easier to hear, and new perspectives begin to appear.
Hi, I’m Liv
I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed by emotions, stuck in your head, and disconnected from your body. For years, I was caught in the cycle of trying to fix myself through rigid routines, restriction, supplements, and constant self-improvement. After spending a long time managing depression, I began to realise that these things were pulling me further away from what I actually needed. When I found breathwork, something inside me began to shift. I learned to listen to my body instead of overriding it, and to be with and integrate my emotions rather than managing them. Developing that practice of listening changed my relationship with myself.
Now I hold space for other women navigating that same sense of overwhelm and disconnection. My approach is about creating the conditions where you can reconnect with yourself, move at your own pace, and access your own inner knowing.
I’m a certified trauma-informed breathwork practitioner, trained in Introspective Breathwork® Therapy and Usui Reiki, with specialist training in somatics and trauma-informed care. I work with clients online and in person in Brighton’s North Laine.

FAQs
-
There’s nothing specific you need to do, and no prior experience is required.
On a practical level, wearing comfortable clothing and having some water and a blanket nearby can help you feel more at ease.
If we’re working online, it’s best to choose a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed. Headphones are recommended, as they can improve sound quality and help you stay immersed in the session.
For in-person sessions, everything you need is provided on the day. After booking, you’ll receive an email with a few suggestions to help you feel settled and supported.

Online sessions take place via Zoom in a private, one-to-one setting. All that’s needed is a quiet, comfortable space where you can be undisturbed, along with a stable internet connection.
The session itself unfolds in much the same way as an in-person session. We begin by checking in and taking time to arrive, before moving into the breath with music played through Zoom. There’s always space at the end to rest and integrate, allowing what’s been present during the session to settle before we close.
Many people find that working online makes it easier to ease into the process, supported by the familiarity of being in their own space and the ability to fully rest afterward without needing to travel home.

This work is trauma-informed and always guided by your capacity and pace. Introspective Breathwork® Therapy is client-led, which means you remain in control of your breath and your experience throughout the session.
The breathing is never forced. We work in a way that supports staying within what feels manageable for you, allowing the body to guide the process rather than pushing beyond its limits.
If you have any medical or mental health considerations, we can talk them through before booking to make sure this work feels appropriate and supportive for you. Full contraindications are listed on my terms page.

No. While both use conscious, connected breathing, they are different practices with different intentions and ways of working.
Rebirthing Breathwork developed in the 1970s and often involves more intensive breathing, with a focus on accessing early or past experiences. People’s experiences of rebirthing can vary widely depending on the practitioner and setting.
Introspective Breathwork® Therapy (IBT) is a modern, trauma-informed approach that places emphasis on nervous system safety and client agency. You remain in control of your breath and your experience throughout the session, and the pace is guided by your capacity rather than by a prescribed technique or outcome. The focus is on creating safety, awareness, and integration over time.
