Grief Breathwork: A Sacred Space for Release and Renewal

Step into a night of A Sacred Space for Release and Renewal at CommuniTea Yoga and Retreats.

Join us for a guided session of breathwork, reflection, sound healing, and Reiki centered on grief, release, and renewal. This evening offers space to pause, breathe, and process the emotions we often carry quietly — the weight of loss, change, and transition.

Grief shows up in many forms — through endings, unmet expectations, or shifts in identity and connection. In this session, guided breathwork and gentle reflective inquiry will support you in acknowledging what feels heavy and creating space for release. After your breathwork journey, sound healing offered by Virginia and Mahtaab will help regulate the nervous system, followed by Reiki from Lindy Morrow to provide soft energetic support to complement your inner process.

No prior experience is needed — just bring an open mind, comfortable clothing, and a willingness to explore what’s ready to be released.

Important Information About Conscious Connected Breathwork:

Breathwork can bring up deep emotional releases and somatic experiences, including:

• Tingling, buzzing, or energy movement throughout the body

• Emotional catharsis and the release of long-held emotions

• Physical sensations like muscle tightness (tetany)

• Feelings of deep relaxation, clarity, and renewal

• Transformative insights and spiritual connection

Every experience is unique, and all emotions that arise are valid and welcomed in this transformative space.

Contraindications:

Breathwork is a powerful healing tool, but it may not be suitable for individuals with:

• A history of seizures, strokes, or schizophrenia

AGENDA

I’m Virginia Wilcsek, a licensed therapist and certified breathwork practitioner with experience in trauma-informed and somatic healing. I help individuals regulate their nervous system, process stored trauma, and build emotional resilience through guided breathwork and evidence-based practices. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space for self-exploration, personal growth, and transformation.

I specialize in combining holistic wellness approaches with practical tools to help you reconnect with your inner strength, release what no longer serves you, and cultivate lasting emotional balance.

We’re honored to welcome Mahtaab Khanjari, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, as co-host of this workshop. Mahtaab brings clinical expertise and a grounded presence to guide participants through shadow work and breathwork, supporting deeper self-awareness and transformation.

We’re honored to welcome special guest Reiki Practitioner, Lindy Morrow, who will be offering gentle, grounding energy work throughout the session. Her presence adds another layer of support, helping participants settle more deeply into their process of release and renewal. Through Reiki, she invites a sense of balance and calm, complementing the breathwork experience and encouraging a steady connection between body, mind, and emotion.

Together, we’re here to hold space for your journey, offering guidance, tools, and support as you embrace your authentic self and unlock the transformative potential of this practice.

After a breathwork session focused on shadow work, participants often experience:

• Self-Awareness: Recognizing hidden patterns, beliefs, and behaviors that shape daily life

• Emotional Release: Letting go of suppressed feelings tied to past experiences

• Integration: Reconnecting with disowned parts of the self and fostering acceptance

• Clarity: Gaining insight into personal triggers, habits, and inner dynamics

• Physical Shifts: Sensations such as tingling, warmth, or energy movement as emotions are processed

• Grounding: A sense of balance and regulation in the nervous system

• Reflection: Deeper insights through journaling or quiet self-inquiry after the session

This work is about meeting your shadow with curiosity, releasing old patterns, and stepping into greater wholeness and self-understanding.
