Breathwork Waiver and Release
OVERVIEW
Breathwork (“the Activity”) is a system of guided actions which can result in intense physical and emotional release. Breathwork is a transformational process that is simple, safe, and extremely effective for experiencing breakthroughs and optimal wellness in your life.
This work is deeply experiential and may involve intense physical, energetic, and emotional release. Therefore, persons with a history of cardiovascular disease, including angina or heart attack, high blood pressure, glaucoma, retinal detachment, osteoporosis, significant recent physical injuries, or surgery should not participate in the Activity.
Breathwork is not advised for persons with severe mental illness, bipolar disorder or psychosis, seizure disorders, or for persons using major medications, or persons who are under the influence of legal or illegal drugs to the extent that their capacity is impaired. It is also unsuitable for anyone with a personal or family history of aneurysms. Pregnant women are advised against practicing Breathwork without first consulting and getting approval from their primary care physician. Persons with asthma should bring their inhaler and consult with their primary care physician and the Breathwork class facilitator. Breathwork is not therapy and does not substitute for psychotherapy.
