Breathwork Training

The Breath of Wisdom & Illumination

Sophia Pneuma Breathwork is the signature breathwork practice of LIATI Institute, designed to cultivate spiritual clarity, deep inner knowing, and embodied wisdom. Rooted in the Greek concept of Sophia (Σοφία)—divine wisdom—and Pneuma (Πνεῦμα)—breath, spirit, and life force—this practice merges celestial insight with grounded embodiment.

Through intentional breath patterns, visualization, and somatic awareness, Sophia Pneuma Breathwork awakens the higher mind, expands intuitive perception, and bridges the cosmic and the earthly realms. It is not just a practice of breath but a pathway to illumination, inviting you to breathe in the wisdom of the universe while anchoring it into the body.

Whether used for meditative stillness, energetic refinement, or soul alchemy, Sophia Pneuma serves as a gateway to divine intelligence, clarity, and the luminous essence within.

Dive deep into the heart of healing with the Biodynamic Breathwork and Trauma Release System® (BBTRS®), an all-encompassing approach designed to guide you back to your authentic self.

This transformative breathing style integrates mindful, interconnected breathing with movement, vocalization, emotional catharsis, bodywork, and meditation.

Together, these elements create a powerful synergy that encourages the body to naturally and safely release accumulated tension, emotional heaviness, or trauma through a regulated process known as pendulation.

At the core of this process is resilience—the ability to adapt and recover from adversity, stress, or trauma. Resilience is a dynamic process involving emotional regulation, optimism, flexibility, support networks, problem-solving skills, self-awareness, and self-care. It's not about avoiding difficulty but about bouncing back and continuing to move forward with a sense of purpose and growth. 

However, in our fast-paced world, instead of cultivating resilience, we often resort to the 'busy bandaid' approach, remaining externally focused and neglecting our inner landscape. Yet, it's crucial to allow our nervous system and subtle quantum energetics to find true balance, especially as we encounter challenging chapters.

 Through BBTRS®, you are invited to courageously reconnect with your most authentic self, refine beliefs that support your goals, release outdated expectations that hinder your happiness, and welcome wildness back into your heart.
