Embodied Breath: A Somatic Practice for Stress, Tension Relief & Nervous System Regulation

From 102 C$ /h

This is a one‐on‐one breathwork experience designed to help you move out of the thinking mind and into deep nervous‐system regulation, emotional release, and embodied presence.

Through intentional breathing, movement, touch and supportive spaceholding this session helps you to:
- reset stress and overwhelm
- release stuck energy and tension from the body
- access deeper clarity and inner calm
- reconnect with your body

I work with an embodied approach, grounding the nervous system, meeting emotions as they arise, and inviting self‐awareness without forcing or fixing.

This is ideal if you:
- want real nervous‐system support rather than “relaxation only”
- feel held back by chronic stress, burnout, or emotional tension
- want tools that continue to support you off the mat
- feel like meditation is too boring / doesn't work for you

No previous breathwork experience needed. All levels welcome.

Extra information

- The practice is best done on an empty stomach and empty bladder: No heavy meals within 2 hours leading up to the session + remember to use the toilet before the session.
- Dress in layers (in case you get too warm /cold) & loose clothes (tight clothes restrict movement of the diaphragm)
- The practice is done in a cross legged position, ensure you have a comfy place to sit where you won't be disturbed
- During the practice you might feel the urge to release sound. If there is someone in the house with you it is wise to inform them beforehand. This way they don't get worried and you don't feel restricted.
- Bring tea or warm water in case you get thirsty (cold water is not recommended as it restricts energy flow)
- Bring a pen/pencil and notepad in case there is something you want to write down
- Leave your phone in another room (unless you are using the device to join the session) or put on DND
- Headphones are recommended but not needed

About Me

I’m Tina, a certified breathwork coach. I help people reconnect with their bodies and learn to use their breath as a tool for real, felt change. My approach is grounded, practical, and body‐led. No fluff, no spiritual jargon, just techniques that help your nervous system relax, tension release, and presence return.

The way I work is simple, grounded, and body-led. We use the breath alongside gentle movement and touch to support regulation, release stored tension, and create more space in the body. This is for you if you feel stuck in your head, overwhelmed, tense, or disconnected from yourself. This is for you if you want a practice that helps you come back to yourself in a tangible way.

Why Work With Me
- I bring a practical, somatic perspective that meets each person where they are
- I focus on real, felt outcomes: calm, release, and embodied awareness
- I create a safe, supportive space for exploring tension and nervous system patterns
- My sessions are informed by both training and lived experience with stress, anxiety, and body tension

Sound Healing, Sound Bath, Chakra Healing & Reiki

Sound Healing is a holistic wellbeing practice that uses intentional sound, vibration and mindful listening to create a deeply relaxing and meditative experience.

My sessions use instruments such as Tibetan singing bowls, gongs and other therapeutic sound instruments, combined with guided relaxation and mindfulness-based practices. The intention is to help you slow down, release everyday tension, become more aware of your body and mind, and create a deeper sense of relaxation and inner balance.

What I Offer

Sound Bath

A deeply immersive relaxation experience using Tibetan singing bowls, gongs and other sound instruments. You simply relax, listen and allow the sounds and vibrations to become the focus of your awareness.

A Sound Bath may be particularly suitable if you are looking for:

• Deep relaxation
• Stress reduction
• Mental quietness
• Meditation support
• Emotional relaxation
• A peaceful break from a busy lifestyle

Chakra Healing

A holistic practice incorporating sound, meditation, intention and awareness of the traditional chakra system.

Chakra Balancing

A guided sound-based practice focused on relaxation, awareness and the traditional concept of balancing the body's energy centres.

Full-Body Sound Healing

A personalized session using multiple sound instruments and guided relaxation to create an immersive full-body relaxation experience.

The session may help you disconnect from everyday mental activity, become more aware of bodily sensations and enter a deeply restful state.

Reiki with Sound Healing

A complementary session combining Reiki practice with Sound Healing for people interested in a holistic relaxation and wellbeing experience.

The session focuses on relaxation, mindfulness, energetic awareness and creating a calm environment for self-reflection.

Corporate Sound Bath

I also conduct Corporate Sound Bath and Corporate Wellness sessions designed for employees and organizations.

Corporate sessions can be customized for:

• Stress management
• Workplace relaxation
• Employee wellbeing
• Meditation and mindfulness
• Wellness days
• Team wellbeing events
• Corporate retreats
• International Yoga Day / wellness initiatives

Sessions can be conducted online or in person, depending on the requirement.

A Personalized Approach

I don't use exactly the same session for everyone.

Before a session, I take into consideration your intention, experience, comfort level and any relevant sensitivities. The instruments, intensity and structure of the session can then be adapted accordingly.

My objective is to create a safe, peaceful and deeply immersive sound experience where you can relax, turn your attention inward and reconnect with yourself.

Sound healing sessions for beginners and seekers. In the class we will look at some of the theory and dive together in the practice.
I have a master's degree in classical music (my main instrument is oboe) and studied sound healing with the voice for several years, too.

Stress, low energy, back pain? Most of us face these or similar issues, but there is a way to let them go with joy and ease - through yoga. Yoga was designed as a system for managing energy, and it has been practiced and refined for thousands of years.

I am practicing yoga for over a decade now and I am a certified teacher in Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga, and Yoga Nidra. My own practice includes conscious bodywork and daily meditation, and I am here to guide you back to balance, in your body and in yourself.

In Hatha Yoga, we build strength and flexibility while calming an overactive mind, combining alignment, breath, and yogic philosophy.

In Yin Yoga, we hold long, passive postures that release built-up tension and calm the nervous system. Yin yoga works for when stress has been building up for a while.

In Yoga Nidra, we practice guided deep relaxation and non-sleep deep rest (NSDR), for when you are running on empty and need rest without needing to fall asleep.

We practice Pranayama usually as an integral part of the yoga class, we work with the breath to help you calm down or find focus, depending on what your energy needs that day.

Hi! I’m Anouk, a certified yoga teacher 🧘‍♀️ offering personalized yoga and mobility classes adapted to your body, your lifestyle and your goals.

My approach is simple: **yoga should adapt to you, not the other way around.** ✨

Whether you are a complete beginner, an athlete, a runner, a gym enthusiast, or simply someone who feels stiff and wants to move better, I create each session around what you actually need.

Classes can focus on:

• Improving flexibility and mobility
• Releasing tight hips, hamstrings, shoulders or back
• Yoga and mobility for runners 🏃
• Recovery and mobility for strength training and gym athletes
• Improving balance, body awareness and control
• Gentle yoga and active recovery
• Building a regular yoga practice
• Learning yoga postures and proper alignment
• Personalized stretching routines
• Relaxation, breathing and stress relief

You do **not** need to be flexible or experienced to start.

Every session is adapted to your current level, mobility, physical activity and personal goals. We can have a relaxing session, work specifically on mobility and flexibility, or create a more athletic practice depending on what you need.

I teach **private 1 to 1 sessions as well as sessions for two people**, online worldwide 🌍 or in person depending on location.

Classes are available in **French 🇫🇷 and English 🇬🇧**.

My goal is not simply to make you “do yoga”, but to help you use yoga and mobility as practical tools to feel better in your body and improve the activities and sports you already enjoy.

Hi! I'm Anto, a yoga teacher with dual training: in Argentina and India.
I lived in Australia for 4 years, so I teach in English or Spanish.

I offer a holistic approach, beyond the physical: we will work together on postures with breathing, meditation, yogic philosophy and general well-being.
You will find classes designed and planned according to what you are looking for and your possibilities/needs; they can be gentler and more mindful practices or dynamic ones.

If you're in the northern/western area of Greater Buenos Aires, ask me about in-person classes at your home. Outdoor groups will also be available soon.

Active Age is a mindful movement practice designed to support mobility, balance, body awareness and functional strength as we move through different stages of life.

These 30–45 minute classes combine conscious movement, breathing, mobility exercises, balance work and gentle strength to help you maintain a more comfortable, responsive and confident relationship with your body.

Rather than pushing the body to do more, Be Balance invites you to understand what your body needs today — and learn how to move from there.

Each class is adaptable to your own level and pace, with a focus on quality of movement, joint mobility, coordination, posture, balance and everyday functional movement.

You don’t need to be flexible, fit or experienced. You simply need to be willing to listen to your body and move with awareness.
What you can expect

• Improve mobility and range of motion
• Support balance and coordination
• Develop functional strength
• Improve body awareness and proprioception
• Release unnecessary tension and rigidity
• Connect movement with conscious breathing
• Build confidence in the way you move
• Create a more sustainable relationship with exercise

Be Balance Active Age is not about moving harder.
It is about moving better, with greater awareness and confidence.

Listen to your body. Let it arrive. Keep moving.

Somatic Meaning Guidance is my interdisciplinary approach to embodied awareness, movement, breath, meaning, and reflective practice.

Explore movement, breath, meditation, and body awareness through a fascia-aware and reflective approach to yoga.
I am a yoga instructor, logotherapist, and existential analyst. My approach brings together fascia-sensitive movement, mindful attention, breathing practices, meditation, and an interest in how the body, nervous system, awareness, and experience interact.

Rather than focusing on performance or forcing the body into fixed poses, these sessions invite you to explore movement through sensation, breath, rhythm, curiosity, and your own individual range. We can work with gentle yoga sequences, mobility, fascia-aware movement, grounding practices, meditation, breathing techniques, and periods of stillness.

We can also explore topics such as nervous system regulation, stress responses, neuroplasticity, attention, repetition, and embodied learning from an educational and experiential perspective. My background in logotherapy and existential analysis also informs my interest in awareness, meaning, perception, and the way we relate to our own experience.

Each session can be adapted to your experience, comfort, and personal goals. You do not need to be flexible or experienced in yoga. The practice can be gentle and exploratory or more movement-focused depending on what you need.

My aim is to create a space where movement is not simply something to perform, but something to notice, experience, and understand more deeply — through the relationship between body, breath, attention, and awareness.
These sessions are educational and wellness-oriented and are not a substitute for psychotherapy, physiotherapy, or medical treatment.

Join a yoga class that blends the steady, grounding qualities of Hatha with the flowing movement of Vinyasa. With two years of teaching experience, I guide each session with a particular focus on spinal alignment and flexibility, helping you build a strong, mobile and well-supported back.

Every class follows a clear and balanced structure: we begin with a moment of grounding to arrive and settle, then gently warm up the body before moving into the asanas. We continue with pranayama (breathwork) to calm and energize the mind, and close with a deep relaxation to integrate the practice.

Whether you are new to yoga or already have experience, classes are open to all levels, with adaptations offered so everyone can practice safely and at their own pace.

My yoga journey is rooted in helping people navigate the interconnected challenges of metabolic health, stress, and body image. Living with conditions like PCOS, struggling with mental health, or navigating weight management can often make standard exercise feel overwhelming or burn-out inducing. I created my practice to offer a different way forward.
I offer a balanced, body-honoring approach that focuses on regulating the nervous system, building functional strength, and supporting hormonal and metabolic health without force or shame.
