"In 2001, I had the good fortune to participate in a seminar on the Inner Judge held by Avikal. During that weekend, a new sound, from somewhere within me was released. A desire to explore what had happened began to move and the taste of a new truth appeared from the depths of the “old” me. Since then, I’ve continued on this path and this has brought me, over the years, an ever increasing harmony with myself and the world around me. At the same time, I feel I am always at the beginning of something new in this art of exploring the vastness of my inner world."

Gain the capacity to choose and feel empowered again in your own life
What is the workshop about?
- Who is it for: Everyone
- Topics: Breathwork
Take a deep breath: Open your heart, your body, your being, let go of restricting fears and tensions. Allow yourself to explore the intensity and flow of life energy that makes being alive such a precious gift. In shock or trauma we hold our breathing. We stop the natural movement impulse of the body to fight or to escape. Instead, this vital movement energy is frozen into fear and helplessness or, in order to avoid the feeling of panic and pain, we may even disconnect from our body.
If we do not have support in our natural growing process as children it will affect our lives. Any kind of abuse in childhood or just the rejection of our basic need for love and emotional safety has traumatic effects.
Breathing is a wonderful tool for moving through and beyond trauma. In this first part of the training we will use resourcing, moving with the felt sense as well as different ways of breathing, to enter the self-regulation healing system of the body.
This way we release old trauma and integrate the natural life force with all frozen emotions – back into pleasure.
In this workshop you will explore:
- Experiencing conscious natural breathing as the connection to life
- Explore how each life situation and each emotion has a different breathing pattern
- Gain a deeper understanding of what stopped our life flow in shock and trauma
- Understanding the difference of developmental trauma and shock trauma
- Discover how to trust and track your felt sense and explore to natural pendulation during a breathing session
- Begin to distinguish trauma energy, survival energy and healthy energy behaviour

What participants say
"Avikal Costantino was my teacher in a 3-year Essence training in Denmark. He turned out to be the exact 'right' teacher for me, with his provoking, and at the same time trusting-the-process and staying-one-step-behind-the-shoulder attitude. I love his clarity and find his teachings and coaching to have a perfect blend of new insights, science-based theory, and experience. With heart-warming humour, he led me to the edges of my quite stubborn conditioning, offered me (and still does to this day) a wider view, and a loving invitation beyond its boundaries. I feel deeply grateful for my association with Avikal and his work. "
