Release what you’ve been carrying
even if you don’t have the words for it yet

An intimate group breathwork experience for grief, emotional healing, and clarity

You’ve been holding a lot together while carrying emotions that don’t have anywhere to go.

Grief you can’t fully explain.
Old trauma that still lives in your body, no matter how much you’ve worked through it.
Everyday stress, anxiety, responsibilities that aren’t even yours to carry, and the pressure to keep it all together.

This is where you can finally stop holding it all together.

Through Conscious Connected Breathwork, combined with journaling and oracle guidance, you’ll safely release what’s been building in your body and gain clarity on what’s next.

This group breathwork experience is designed to help you process grief, release emotional tension, and reconnect with your body, mind, and intuition in a way that actually feels real.

You’ll leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more like yourself again.

Each group is intentionally kept small, so you’re not lost in a crowd but held in a space where you can feel safe and truly seen.

How group breathwork helps you process grief, release emotional weight and reconnect with yourself

“I let go of emotional tension I didn’t even realize I was holding.”

Taylor Pham Google Review about group breathwork in Houston.png

"I found Breathe Connect Thrive on Google and booked a session for my friends and myself to try an in-person session. I was having a bad cold that day and thought about cancelling the session. I’m glad I didn’t. Francisca was very insightful and skilled in guiding us through our first time trying breath work. I found some answers I was looking for, I also let go of major emotional tension I’ve been holding on to. Highly recommend trying breath work with Francisca."

What can you expect in a group breathwork class?

Every bit of you is welcome in this 2-hour semi-private group breathwork journey, where I’ll guide you through releasing grief, emotional overwhelm, old trauma, and the tension you’ve been carrying in your body.

After a brief introduction, we’ll begin with Oracle guidance for the group to check in with our energy and set the tone for the session.

 

From there:

  • I’ll demonstrate the breathwork technique so you feel comfortable and supported

  • You’ll be guided through 40–50 minutes of active Conscious Connected Breathing

  • You may be invited to use sound (like a sigh, tone, or yell) to help release energy

  • You’ll have time to rest, process, move, and journal as your body integrates the experience

  • We’ll close with another oracle reading for reflection and insight

 

(If it’s a lunar class, we’ll incorporate full or new moon spreads along with journaling prompts.)

If you’d like, you’ll also have space at the end to journal or share your experience with the group.

If you're ready to feel lighter and grounded simultaneously, connect to your intuition, get some downloads from your higher self, and, most importantly, feel like yourself again, save your spot here.

How group breathwork helps you release stress, process emotions, and reconnect with yourself

While breathwork won’t solve all your problems, it will give you a way to release what you’ve been holding inside your mind, body, heart and soul.

Sometimes that release in group breathwork looks like:

  • letting go of stress, anxiety, or emotional buildup you didn’t even realize was there

  • finally allowing yourself to process the grief you’ve been pushing down to keep yourself safe

  • having space to reconnect with your intuition so you can get unstuck from the indecision loop 

This breathwork journey isn’t about forcing anything.
It’s about creating space for your body to process what your mind can’t always put into words.

Inside each group breathwork session, you’ll be guided through a deeply personal experience, including music you help choose.

Because music doesn’t just set the mood, it helps you feel, remember, connect, and release.

When you combine Conscious Connected Breathwork with personalized playlists, you’re able to access deeper emotional release, clarity, and a sense of connection to yourself that actually feels real.

You might not always leave feeling amazing, but you’ll leave having moved something.

From emotional tension → to feeling free, grounded, and clear again

Dr. Menka Patel — on letting go and gaining clarity through private breathwork

I can’t express how much I was able to let go and achieve with a private session. She knew exactly what to say in order for me to fully let go and surrender-which is not easy for me.

 

It was energizing and meditative at the same time- I felt free and grounded all at once after the session.

 

Breathwork gave me clarity, inspiration, and direction for the next steps.

 

I recommend it to anyone and everyone!"

You don’t have to keep carrying it on your own. This is your space to finally let it out.

Yeah, but how does group breathwork really work? (and other FAQs) 

Does breathwork really work? Sounds funny to read that intentionally breathing with your favorite music playing in the background might be one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences you'll ever have. Conscious Connected Breathing can help you have an intense physiological reaction that allows you to release emotions on a deep level and heal old trauma stuck in your body. You see, around the 8-12 minute mark, you might feel some resistance. And at that moment, it's just you and your breath. Challenging yourself, pushing through that block, taking one empowering inhale after another helps you build resiliency and trust in yourself like nothing else. You discover that you are both flexible and powerful. You find that you can let go of perfection and control one breath at a time. With each surrendering exhale, you connect to your intuition and spiritual self.  

How many breathwork sessions do you need to heal trauma? If you need to work through grief, loss, trauma, or chronic depression, you might need multiple sessions. While one breathwork session can help you release emotions, you might require more sessions to work through deep-seated emotional baggage. I take you through a twelve-session breathwork process that allows you to get to root issues, address old wounds, and trust yourself to make choices that can help you move forward in your life with confidence no matter what life throws your way. Click here for pricing information about multiple group breathwork sessions to help you heal trauma.

How much does a group breathwork class in Houston and online cost? Group breathwork classes in Houston and online  can range from $55-$95 per person. Private one-on-one breathwork sessions in Houston can range from $150-$400. Package discounts for multiple breathwork sessions are available. Click here to view all the service prices for breathwork and other healing options.

What is Conscious Connected Breathwork? Conscious Connected Breathwork is an intense and powerful open-mouthed breathing technique where you lay down, inhale into your diaphragm through an open mouth, then inhale again into the chest with an open mouth, and then let out a soft open-mouthed exhale. You breathe during the active phase for about thirty minutes. Then you have a resting period to integrate the physical and emotional release. Old trauma stuck in your body surfaces during Conscious Connected Breathwork. Then emotional energy runs through you, and you can let that shit go and cry it out from a deeper visceral level. This intense breathwork practice can also help you experience more joy, focus, direction, relief, and clarity.

What happens in a breathwork session? After an intake and demonstration of the breathwork technique, we'll get you lying down in a comfortable space where you can be undisturbed for 90 minutes. Then I'll guide you through your breathwork session. I'll play a personalized music playlist with some of your favorite songs. You'll have 25-30 minutes of active breathing. During the breathwork, I'll guide you with personalized affirmations. You'll let out a few yells or vocalizations when I cue you to release some energy. Then you'll have 15-20 minutes of resting time. You'll also have about 15-20 minutes of processing time before and after. A few days after your session, I'll check in with you by email. You'll also receive a personalized report from your breathwork with post-breathwork reflection questions. Most people have an emotional release, while others have spiritual downloads. Some have positive remembrances of those who are no longer living. Everyone's experience is unique.

Is breathwork safe? Breathwork is an umbrella term for any intentional breathing practice. Conscious Connected Breathwork is an intense breathing practice. History of cardiovascular disease, severe unsupported mental illness, seizure disorders, aneurysms, and high-risk pregnancy are contraindications to this type of breathwork. Seeking medical or professional advice before any intense practice is advisable if you have any of these contraindications.

What is tetany? Tetany is cramping in your extremities (hands, feet, shoulders) that can happen during Conscious Connected Breathwork, mostly because we are offloading more carbon dioxide than normal. If you experience tetany, even though it might hurt or feel scary, please know that it is not uncommon, and it will pass. You are safe, and it is only temporary. The amazing thing about breathwork is that you have autonomy over your breathing. You can choose to slow down the breath until the tetany passes or breathe through the discomfort. There is no right or wrong choice here. It's your body and your experience.

Can you do breathwork alone? Of course, you can do breathwork alone; all you have to do is remember the breathwork pattern, find a comfortable space, and set a timer. However, if you prefer guidance in your breathwork practice, then the Conscious Breath Connection Course might be for you. The modules are convenient, iPhone-friendly, comprehensive, easy to digest, and will leave you feeling equipped with new tools each day. It's like I'm there with you, guiding you throughout the course. Click here for more information on learning to guide yourself through breathwork at home.
