Presence of Breath

Transformational Breath® Signature Weekend Event with Eugenia Altamira

What is this weekend about…

Presence of Breath introduces you to two complementary paths to present moment awareness and emotional integration. The Presence Process by Michael Brown is a self guided, ten week journey that uses consciously connected breathing, simple responses, and weekly prompts to help you meet life with steadier presence. The book first appeared in 2005 and has since reached readers worldwide.

Transformational Breath® is a modern, education based approach to conscious, diaphragmatic breathing created by Dr. Judith Kravitz in the mid to late 1970s. It is taught globally through the Transformational Breath Foundation.

Michael Brown originally emphasized practicing the process on one’s own. After encountering Transformational Breath, he began recommending it for people who want guided facilitation while moving through the journey. Presence of Breath was created to teach the foundations of both, so you can begin your practice with clarity, support, and momentum.

Step into presence with the power of your breath!

Why these methods together

1.

Grow present moment awareness, through the simple structure of The Presence Process, using daily conscious breathing, intention, and gentle observation, so you can step out of reactivity, meet life as it unfolds, and cultivate steadiness in both mind and body.

2.

Open your breath safely, with Transformational Breath’s structured setup, gentle coaching, and simple adaptations, so your body can release tension, your nervous system can settle, and emotional patterns can begin to integrate.

3.

Feel supported, Michael Brown directs those seeking guided facilitation to Transformational Breath®, offering you a reliable method and experienced facilitators who provide safety, encouragement, and companionship on the path into presence.
