What is Breathwork?

Breathwork is the conscious control of one’s breath. While we breathe unconsciously throughout the day, it is only when we pay attention to this simple act that it becomes known as Breathwork.

Through the ages, many cultures have understood and practised breath control as a medium to improve their health. With the rise of modern medicine, Breathwork has become known as an alternative form of healing.

What you may not know is that suboptimal breathing habit is the underlying cause of many of today’s chronic ailments.

Why Practice?

At Mayura Life, our aim is to remind your body what it feels like to breathe optimally. By facilitating sessions that contain a variety of curated breathing techniques to reteach your bodies mechanisms.

By understanding that breath is the link between body and mind, we can consciously adapt our breath to alter our mental, psychological, emotional, and physiological state.

We can return to a place of authentic energy. A space where we can relax and heal without the need for medicating. A place where health, performance, creativity, focus, and memory are part of our unique physiology.

It has been scientifically proven that with just 5 minutes of conscious breathing, you can activate either nervous system, delivering immediate results.

With continued practice, our breathing pattern will automatically adapt to the situation at hand. This is known as Breathe Intelligence.

Mayura Life brings this understanding to the corporate space and the individual.

I was lucky enough that my previous employer hired Tammy at Mayura Life to do some breath work classes 3 times a week remotely via Teams. Tammy is very professional and explains the purpose of each exercise very well. I always felt re-centered, energized and ready for the rest of the day after her sessions. You wouldn't think such a quick session would make a difference but it really does. Thank you Tammy for teaching me why Breath work is so important, especially during these very hard times.

What an amazing and transformative experience. Since starting the breathing sessions with Tammy, offered through my employer, not only have I become more calm and relaxed but energised and focussed. I look forward to these sessions so much as I benefit both in my work and personal environment. These sessions really allow you to confidently use breathing techniques to use throughout the day. It helps you cope with the day to day stresses of life as well as boosts your overall mood and positivity. I have seen such an improvement in my life. Will surely continue!

Survey results; I felt much more relaxed. Chilled. Relaxed and energised. Calmer, more focussed. I felt relaxed and ready to get the day started.

Thank you for taking your time to do the sessions with us - I took breathing for granted as it is natural occurrence but your conscious breathing exercises are very helpful for gaining energy awareness, truly.

Tammy's yoga class was recommended to me by a friend and I was hooked after the first class! The yoga classes are exciting and interesting because each class is different and very welcomed challenge to the mind and body.😀 I recommended Tammy for my company's Wellbeing Week where Tammy guided us through meditation, breath-work and some desktop yoga. Even though the sessions were short, attendees left the session feeling more grounded, energised and a clear mind. Tammy is extremely passionate and knowledgeable about her disciplines, and takes the the time to explain each exercise.
