STORY AND PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

BCRD is offering two free guided breathwork sessions from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Aug. 22 and 29.

The Saturday immersive breathwork experience is an invitation to set down what you’ve been carrying and return to yourself, said the BCRD’s Mollie Santo. Using individual headsets and gentle guidance, participants will be supported in moving from tension and a feeling of being overwhelmed toward greater calm, clarity and connection.

This experience is designed for anyone navigating stress, anxiety, low mood, a feeling of being overwhelmed or a sense of disconnection. No previous breathwork experience is required—all you need to do is show up, breathe, and allow the experience to meet you where you are.

Sessions will take place in the BCRD Yoga Studio.

August 22: 11:00 a.m.–12:30 p.m.

August 29: 11:00 a.m.–12:30 p.m.

The sessions are free, but advance registration is required and space is limited.
