Facilitating Within the Subtle Currents of Breath and Prana

If the Foundations training establishes the ground of listening to the breath, the Advanced training invites practitioners into a more intimate relationship with the subtle field that shapes it.

What was first sensed begins to be felt more directly — breath and prana revealing themselves as a continuous movement within the inner landscape of the body.

Because this work unfolds most clearly within the intimacy of individual sessions, the Advanced training places strong emphasis on one-on-one facilitation and supervised mentorship. Within this close relational field, practitioners learn to perceive and respond to the subtle movements of breath, energy, and awareness as they arise in real time.

Here practitioners refine their capacity to follow the currents of energy through the breath, working more consciously with the chakra system and the deeper emotional patterns held within it.

“Prana is the link between the physical and the spiritual.”

— Swami Sivananda

Who This Training Is For

This training is designed for practitioners who have completed the Restorative Breathwork® Foundations Facilitator Training and feel called to deepen their relationship with the subtle breath.

Participants are often yoga teachers, yoga therapists, healthcare practitioners, and contemplative guides who wish to refine their capacity to work within the intimacy of individual sessions.

The Advanced training is particularly suited for those who feel drawn toward the deeper energetic dimensions of breathwork — where facilitation arises not from technique alone, but from attunement to the subtle movements of breath, prana, and awareness.

Why This Training?

There comes a time when facilitation can no longer arise from effort or technique alone, but from stillness itself — when holding space shifts from something we do to something we embody.

Rooted in a yin approach, this training returns practitioners to that receptive ground. Here the breath is followed as a current of prana — subtle, intelligent, and quietly organizing.

As this movement unfolds through the chakra system and energetic field, deeper spaciousness within the body begins to reveal itself.

Facilitation becomes an act of listening.

Rooted in Practice, Aligned in Presence

At the heart of this training is the cultivation of a deeply embodied personal practice. Your relationship with the subtle breath becomes the ground from which all facilitation arises.

Through consistent inward practice, practitioners develop the sensitivity, clarity, and attunement needed to guide others. In Restorative Breathwork®, personal depth and professional skill are inseparable — the quality of one’s practice shapes the quality of one’s presence.
