Upcoming Events
Breathwork For Emotional Release
april 24 @ 5pm pst
ONLINE VIA Zoom
Breathwork is a powerful healing modality that helps us understand areas of our lives that need more attention and healing.
What to expect: I will explain the breath and then I will invite you to lay down and breathe to the sound of music. All you need is a private space to lay down (nothing fancy - a bed or yoga mat is perfect), your body and your breath!
30% of proceeds from this class will be donated to FoodWhat, a food justice organization that serves low-income and struggling teenage youth across Santa Cruz County who suffer disproportionately from common problems associated with poverty: diminished school success, severely limited employment options, personal or family trauma, low self-esteem and compromised health.
We are all medicine for each other
Healing begins with connection
... connection to ourselves and connection to others.
The relationship we have with ourselves is the most important relationship we will ever have. When we are more connected to ourselves and our emotions, we are able to cultivate more confidence, a healthier inner dialogue, and a better relationship with our bodies and food.
Being in community and connecting with others is powerful medicine.
There is something deeply healing about sitting in circle with others, witnessing each other in our own individual processes and allowing ourselves to be seen and take up space. You will have the opportunity to connect and share, however, it is never required.

What is Breathwork?
There are many different ways to breathe! The type of breathwork I facilitate is an active meditation and an emotional release technique. During breathwork you will change the rate of the breath so your brain has the simple task of breathing. This allows you to drop into your body and be present with yourself in order to process and integrate past experiences and emotions.
If you are pregnant, have a history of seizures, brain injury or heart disease, please contact me before registering for class.
Breathwork may help you:
Move emotions through your body and promote a sense of calm awareness and presence
Integrate and process past experiences and emotions that can get ‘stuck’ inside of our bodies
Spark creativity and help get you to a state of calm and flow
Disconnect from your mind and bring you to a deeper state of consciousness and connection
Identify and connect with your own inner healer
Deepen the connection you have with yourself, your body, intuition and spirit
What People Are Saying
“Whoa. Attending Miriam’s breathwork circle was so impactful for me. I was left feeling calm, floaty, buzzy, and more deeply connected to my feelings - which is huge for me as that’s something I often struggle with. I only had a little experience with breathwork before this, but Miriam did such a great job of letting me know what to expect. She brought such intentionality to our time together, making space for us to dig deep and reflect before diving into the actual breathwork. As with all of Miriam’s offerings, her breathwork circle was a beautiful blend of emotional support and powerful healing techniques. I have a newfound appreciation and fascination with the power of breathwork, and without a doubt, I’ll be back for another session with Miriam!”
“Miriam has such a natural skill in creating a calm and peaceful environment and space, which was evident even in a Zoom gathering. I was initially a little nervous about spending two hours in a breathwork class, but the way Miriam structures your time together truly allows you to ease into the experience. I walked into that space feeling distracted and overwhelmed, and walked out feeling rejuvenated and deeply relaxed. So grateful to Miriam and her incredible breathwork program!”
“I loved taking this breath-work class with Miriam! She is so knowledgable about nutrition and the mind, and she connected these areas in such an awesome way during the class. The breath-work was amazing; I felt like I was in deep meditation and extremely relaxed afterwards. Miriam does an amazing job of making class-takers feel welcome, and comfortable- she is an expert at creating space for others, and is such a kind and beautiful soul. If you can make some time for yourself, and this new experience I highly recommend it!”
“Miriam is truly a natural majestic healer! She creates a safe non-stigmatizing space to address prior traumas while focusing on re-growth. She led a breath-work circle that was nothing less than transformative—miraculously holding virtual space that was both gentle yet deeply cleansing. In this, and in other ventures, she has helped guide me to acknowledge my barriers to health while infusing positive energy to fortify pathways toward self-love and inner-strength. Working with Miriam has made me feel like I have an ally who understands hardship yet non-judgmentally re-directs me toward a better brighter version of myself; I am forever grateful for my time with Miriam <3”
