ABOUT THIS TRAINING

This training focuses on Conscious Connected Breathwork, a gentle yet powerful practice that works in partnership with the body, nervous system, and subconscious mind. It honors each person’s own inner intelligence, rather than pushing anyone into an experience that isn’t right for them.

In every session, the breath brings forward what is most needed in that moment. Some days that might look like a deep emotional release. Other times it may be leaning into the cues our body gives us for movement or stillness. It might be connecting with clarity, presence, or an unexpected sense of calm. This is part of what makes Conscious Connected Breathwork so unique. It meets you exactly where you are. Nothing is forced and nothing is fabricated. Only what your system is ready to access and integrate.

From a scientific perspective, conscious connected breathing works across several layers of our being to create a powerful and supportive experience.

Mental
Shifts brainwave states from beta (analytical thinking) into more relaxed and expansive states like alpha and theta. This can open access to the subconscious, allowing insight, perspective shifts, and the formation of new neural pathways.

Physical
Increases oxygen supply and circulation, supports healing in the body, and helps discharge stored stress. Many people also experience a renewed sense of connection with their body.

Emotional
Engages the limbic system, the emotional center of the brain. Emotions that have been held or suppressed can surface and move through safely, often leaving people with a sense of release and lightness.

Spiritual
Many people experience breathwork as a gateway to deeper connection with themselves, others, or something larger than themselves. As the mind quiets, a sense of presence, unity, or awe can emerge

This is the true gift of breathwork: the ability to create space for transformation. It helps dissolve old blockages, move us out of emotional and mental ruts, and help us access deeper levels of presence and wisdom that have always been there beneath the surface.

WHAT MAKES THIS TRAINING UNIQUE

What makes this training truly unique is the integration of somatic therapy principles, drawn from the work of Somatic Therapy. You won’t just learn how to facilitate powerful conscious connected breath journeys. You’ll also gain tools to work directly with the nervous system.

You’ll pull back the curtain on your own patterns, understand the “why” behind your stress responses, and learn how to digest stuck energy in a safe, titrated way. These same skills become part of how you support your clients, helping them regulate, release, and integrate their experiences with more ease.

By weaving together breathwork and somatic therapy, you become a facilitator with both power and sensitivity. You’ll know how to create a container where clients feel safe enough to let go, and supported enough to meet whatever arises.

This is the difference between simply guiding someone through an experience and holding space for true transformation.

I'M MAEVE.

For the past decade, I’ve been teaching and holding space in ways that honor both the nervous system and the person behind the learning.

My background is rooted in education and science, but I was always really interested in modalities that move beyond the information and into our actual lived experience. Breathwork became the bridge for me -- a powerful way to blend what we know about the body with a practice that is meaningful, transformational, and very human.

Leading this training allows me to bring together everything I’m passionate about: teaching, breathwork, somatic tools, and nervous-system-informed healing. I love creating spaces that feel safe and grounded, where learning happens through experience and people are supported in finding their own path to healing and wellness.

LOGISTICS

Live calls will be held online twice a week (Mondays and Thursdays over a two-month period.)

We’ll choose a time that works best for the majority of the group. If you can’t attend live, recordings will always be uploaded to the course platform for you to watch at a time that works for you.

You’ll then have up to one year following the completion of live calls to finish and submit your certification requirements.

While the training is designed to be completed online, students who find themselves on Koh Samui can choose to experience certain elements in person. This can include joining breathwork journeys, observing sessions, or receiving somatic sessions when scheduling allows.

There will also be an optional in-person integration week in the future for those who want to deepen their experience. It will have a retreat-like feel, with space to practice, connect, and integrate this work more fully. More details will be shared as they unfold!
