with Jon Orsini
Jon Orsini is a certified breathwork guide, meditation and mindful archery instructor on the faculty at Kripalu Center. He began guiding after many years as a multiple award winning Broadway and film actor.
“Soma” refers to the body. As the mind becomes increasingly more dominant we often connect less and less to the innate wisdom of our bodies. Supported by music, this modality of breathwork guides us to be deeply in touch with our energetic body, helping to clear stuck, stagnant energy, accumulated stress and anxiety–allowing us to release old patterns and arrive fully in the present moment, welcoming new ways of being.
