Grof® Breathwork Retreat in Portland, USA with Katie Sharrock
Grof® Breathwork is a unique, powerful, experiential method of self-exploration developed by Stanislav and Christina Grof, based on traditional wisdom and the results of modern consciousness research.
Join us for this two-day workshop exploring non-ordinary states of consciousness using Grof Breathwork — an introductory overview of holotropic and expanded states of consciousness. Through a combination of accelerated breathing, evocative music, focused bodywork, and creative integration practices, the approach supports access to expanded states and the activation of our innate inner healing capacity. The word holotropic can be understood as “moving towards wholeness.”
Participants work in pairs, alternating in the roles of “breather” and “sitter,” supervised throughout by trained facilitators. Each session lasts approximately 3 hours, and each participant takes part once as an active breather and once as a sitter. A facilitated sharing circle follows to integrate the experience. A post-workshop integration call is included to check in on how you landed after the weekend.
