Experience a new level of aliveness and comfort in the nourishing atmosphere of a Breema weekend workshop. As body, mind, and feelings begin to function in harmony with each other, you are revitalized, and the way you think, feel, and move emanates harmony. Each weekend consists of four modular workshops, all of them unique in content.
In each workshop, we learn and practice a select repertoire of Breema bodywork sequences and Self-Breema exercises, which are dynamic expressions of the Nine Principles of Harmony. These universal principles are fundamental elements of Breema’s profound philosophy, and applying them as we practice prepares us to use them in our daily lives.
These workshops are down-to-earth and practical. We learn by direct experience of giving and receiving the bodywork and doing the exercises. Breema offers perspectives and experiences that can become the foundation of a profound self-understanding, with the potential to have a transformative effect on one’s life. Succinctly put, by studying Breema you discover yourself.
The weekend opens with a special workshop entitled ‘Finding Your Inner Compass,’ where we will look at how to reclaim our attention and use it to become present, so we can nurture ourselves, others, and all life. Join Jon Schreiber, Angela Porter, and Alexandra Johnson on Saturday morning, 9:30-12:30, for this in-depth exploration of attention.
You can participate in the entire weekend, or attend just one or more of the four workshops. Pre-registration is recommended. Call or email the Breema Center for more information.
CE is available for massage therapists and bodyworkers, nurses, LMFTs, LCSWs, LPCCs, and LEPs. $10 fee for processing .
These Weekend Workshops count as part of the 12-Month Breema Practitioner Course.

This workshop is part of International Breema Week:
Open Up to Life
More than ever before, we need to meet life from a foundation of body-mind connection. Then we can move in the direction of actualizing our natural potential to support harmony in our relationship to ourselves, to others, and to all life.
For nine days, we will explore the practice of Self-Breema as a catalyst for greater Self-understanding and more ability to support life around us. Join us in experiencing Breema's practical approach that can balance body, mind, and feelings, nurture your relationships, and bring more meaning to your life.
