A truly thorough, well-researched guide and handbook for breathwork. Full of good information, clinical insights, and compelling encouragement to include breathwork as a powerful healing modality.--Jack Kornfield, PhD, author of A Path with Heart In this remarkably comprehensive exploration of the varieties of conscious breathing (CB) and breathwork, Jessica Dibb makes a compelling case for the benefits to healers of incorporating it into their practices, and for readers to use in their lives. It's brimming with clear details for such uses. From the Internal Family Systems perspective, CB can be an efficient way to calm protector parts, gain access to the healing essence in everyone which we call the Self, and find and heal exiled parts. I learned a lot from reading this fascinating book, and you will too.--Richard Schwartz, PhD, developer of the Internal Family Systems model and adjunct faculty, Harvard Medical School With the current increase in mental health concerns, strategies to self soothe are greatly valued. In Breathwork and Psychotherapy, Jessica Dibb calls on her rich experience as spiritual director of the Inspiration Consciousness School, which uses an integrated model of psychospiritual healing through breathwork. The reader is taken through the ancient origins, diverse traditions, contemporary science, and physiological rationale for using the Breath to heal and realize our full potential. Much recommended for mental health professionals, healers, and people interested in optimizing their health and potential.--Shirley Telles, PhD, consultant and advisor, Patanjali Research Foundation, India
