About the event
Finding Hope In Turbulent Times
A PSYCHEDELIC BREATH® Journey with Viktoriya Cherneva
This 2-hour immersive experience is an invitation to pull back from the noise and journey inward. Held in the quiet, candlelit sanctuary of Be. The Underground Retreat, this session is designed to downregulate your nervous system and guide you back to a state of inner calm through the power of the breath.
What to Expect:
The Journey: Viktoriya leads participants through an invigorating technique known as PSYCHEDELIC BREATH®. This practice blends ancient yogic breathwork with contemporary neuroscience, supported by a carefully curated soundscape of electronic music and frequencies.
The Practice: You will engage in rhythmical, circular breathing and controlled breath retention. This combination is crafted to dissolve physical, mental, and emotional barriers, unlocking access to profound meditative states.
Integration & Stillness: As the journey concludes, the mind softens and the body releases tension, allowing for a profound sense of presence and clarity.
Grounding & Connection: We conclude the session with dedicated time for gentle transition. You will be served a nourishing grounding drink and a mindful snack, allowing you to slowly re-emerge and connect with the community before heading back into the world.
An Unplugged Sanctuary: In line with The Be. Code, this is a phone-free experience. We provide everything you need—mats, bolsters, and blankets—so you can simply arrive and Be.
Practicalities:
Attire: Wear comfortable, loose-fitting layers. You are welcome to dress in a way that allows you to feel free, but comfort is key as you will be sitting or lying on the floor.
Footwear: We are a shoes-off sanctuary; clean indoor flip-flops or warm socks are recommended.
Arrival: Please arrive 10 minutes early to settle in, as we start promptly to protect the silence of the journey.
Health & Safety: PSYCHEDELIC BREATH® is a powerful practice. If you are pregnant or have a history of epilepsy, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, high inner eye pressure, clinical anxiety/panic attacks, psychosis, stroke, or recent surgery, an alternative breathing technique will be offered to suit your needs. Please note any contraindications on your booking.
