"Ecstatic Breathwork discharges mentally and physically and gives so much energy"
My first experience was literally and figuratively breathtaking. I did not expect at all that the effect on my body, mentally, physically, and emotionally would be so great. Mentally, I experienced relief, and emotionally, I allowed myself to be vulnerable. It was important to me that this happened in a safe environment. The experience was fantastic, unique! The fact that you can experience such a rush simply by breathing is a revelation to me. It has enlightened me tremendously. I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Physically, it provides an AMAZING feeling. You can truly feel the energy, as if everything around you is vibrating—a feeling that is not easily encountered. Describing the real sensation is very difficult; you have to experience it yourself to truly understand. I highly recommend everyone to immerse themselves in this experience."
Programme:
Ecstatic breathwork as a central theme for personal growth
Ecstatic breathwork is a powerful and transformative breathing exercise that takes you on a deep inner journey. It is a breathing method that helps you dig deeper into yourself on a physical level, release blockages and tensions, move stuck emotions and expand your awareness.
We apply ecstatic breathwork in every module of our personal growth path, it is like a thread to really integrate your personal development.
Dare to challenge yourself and grow in ways you never thought possible. You will undoubtedly be amazed by the unimaginable results it brings!
Module 1: the vagus nerve & polyvagal theory
During the first module of this personal growth journey, we will explore the Nervus Vagus and the Polyvagal theory (the science of feeling connected and secure). We dive into the function of the vagus nerve and learn why it is important to stimulate this nerve. We explore the characteristics of the three states of our nervous system (safety, fight or flight, freeze). By gaining this valuable knowledge, you will gain a better understanding of how your body and mind respond to stress and learn how to work with this yourself in your personal growth process.
Module 2: The power of emotions ~ "What doesn't heal, repeats."
Learn more about emotions and the impact they have in your daily life. All emotions have evolutionary origins and fulfil a function in our lives. When a emotion gets stuck or out of balance, we suffer from it. It is essential to unlock your emotions and learn how to experience them in a healthy way. By working on this, you will prevent unresolved emotions keep returning in your life. Discover the power of emotions and include them in your personal growth process. Understand their meaning, learn to embrace them and bring healing where needed.
Enriching - warm - grateful
I found the personal growth journey incredibly fascinating. What I find most valuable is that you can do anything you want, if you believe it yourself. I just want to say thank you to you to follow your passion and heart, giving us the chance to find our way back to our own hearts. It is beautiful to see how you do this together, that alone is inspiring.
Module 3: Breathing as an accelerator
After learning about the nervous system, the vagus nerve and emotions, it's time to take conscious control of your own state of being through breathing. Learn how certain breathing techniques work and experience how you can control yourself by adjusting the speed, depth and location of your breathing, among other things. Discover the transformative power of breathing and experience how it supports you in your personal growth process. Take the control your physical, mental and emotional well-being. Explore the possibilities and let the breath lead you to a deeper level of self-awareness and growth.
Module 4: Self-reflection and shadow work
Self-reflection is a powerful tool for personal development and growth. It enables us to become aware of our own thoughts, emotions and behaviours. Through self-reflection, we explore how these aspects affect our daily lives. It is a challenging but necessary process that helps us grow and evolve as individuals.
Through self-reflection, we gain a deeper understanding of our inner world. We become aware of our shadow sides and learn to recognise our own pitfalls. This enables us to transform these aspects and turn them into strengths. Self-reflection empowers us to make conscious choices and steer our lives in the desired direction.
Take time to understand yourself better, to dwell on your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. This process will help you grow, evolve and become the best version of yourself.
Awareness - Passionate - Inspiring
The personal growth journey has taught me to put situations into perspective and choose for myself how I deal with certain situations. I have been doing personal development for several years now, so I have already "dug in" and done some self-reflection. The way you explain and present everything has given me additional tools to live more from within myself.
Module 5: defining boundaries
Learning how to set your boundaries is essential for your personal growth and development. It requires resilience. How others react to your boundaries is beyond your control. It is important to realise that boundaries are not about the other person, but about you. Getting lessons and tools to work on this yourself is of great value.
Embracing your boundaries is an important step in your personal growth process. It requires awareness and self-reflection. Learn how to clearly and assertively communicate your boundaries and develop resilience to handle any negative reactions from others.
Protect your own energy, guard your time and respect your own needs. Take charge of your boundaries and give yourself room to grow.

How to set personal goals?
Setting goals in life is hugely important and powerful for moving forward. We recommend using a specific method to set clear and concrete goals to support your personal development. To set personal goals effectively, there are a number of steps you can follow. Check that your personal goals meet the following 5 conditions:
- Positively formulated
- Specific
- Within own control
- Ecological (i.e. your goal should be good for yourself and others)
- Sensory described (seeing, hearing, feeling, etc.)
In your objective, avoid the words "more & better".
Example of a personal goal: "connect with my humorous side"
Limited goals create limited lives. So stretch yourself as far as you want in setting your goals. You need to decide what you want, because that's the only way you can expect to get it. ~ Tony Robbins
Is personal development an ongoing process?
Personal development is an ongoing process because life is constantly changing. No matter how nice and stable your current situation seems, tomorrow unexpected events may occur that change your path. It is essential to be flexible and adapt to new circumstances. In addition, personal development takes time and effort. It is an ongoing journey of learning, growing and evolving. Be patient with yourself and give yourself time to achieve your goals. Every step forward is a success to be proud of. Action is the key to achieving your dreams. Keep investing in your personal growth because it is customisation that enriches and transforms your life.

Learn to deal with negative emotions
Negative thoughts and emotions are a natural part of life. However, it is important to find healthy ways to deal with them. Learning stress management techniques, such as breathing exercises, meditation or exercise, can help reduce stress and build resilience.
Another powerful step is to engage in forgiveness, both for others and for yourself. Forgiveness frees you from negative experiences and resentment, and creates space for growth, relationship restoration and inner peace.
Accepting negative feelings and thoughts, rather than suppressing them, paradoxically helps in letting them go.
This acceptance opens the door to a lighter life. Striving for balance in your life, paying attention to different aspects, also contributes to your personal.development
Developing social skills
Developing social skills and effective communication is invaluable for personal growth. It enables us to communicate in an authentic and respectful way, building deeper relationships and handling conflict situations more effectively. It is a process that requires awareness, practice and patience.
Improving your communication skills, both verbal and non-verbal, enriches our social interactions and positively impacts those around us. It includes expressing our thoughts, feelings and needs clearly and respectfully, leading to better cooperation and fewer misunderstandings.
Get to know your own behaviour and language better, understand social dynamics, show empathy, develop assertiveness and thus build confidence.
Invest in yourself and discover how developing both social and communication skills enhances your personal growth. By making conscious choices in your interactions and improving your communication, you will soon notice that you not only build a better connection with others, but also a deeper connection with yourself. This will help you create successful relationships and boost your personal growth
