TESTIMONIAL
 I want to tell the entire world about Gabrielle. If you are reading this and find yourself in a "troubled" time, please keep reading what I experienced with Gabrielle.
I felt as if I had hit rock bottom in January 2006. For my entire life I tried so hard to maintain the positive attitude I was told to have. I never wanted anyone to see that I was hurting. In my life, I have had one relationship failure after another. Finally, I felt all  I had been through was more than I could hide. I started crying and did not stop for a week. Thankfully, my friend told me about Gabrielle.  When I first met Gabrielle, I was overwhelmed by my admiration for the sense of calm and peace that she had. I remember thinking how much I wanted to know what she knew, so I too could have the peace she has.  I met with her one time and instantly knew that not only did she have an understanding of what I was experiencing but she could give me the tools I lacked through her coaching program.  I signed up and began a program, that at the time, I had no idea the impact it would have on my life.  Right from the start, I noticed a difference in myself.  I was excited about the changes. For the first time, I was not just telling someone my problems, I was getting a clear understanding of how to deal with them.  We quickly began the Clear Talk sessions. I was nervous at first that I would not be able to communicate as well as Gabrielle did, but she made me feel so comfortable and allowed me to work through my thoughts and goals. She was my coach! She let me do the work and continued to guide me on the right path.  I learned that "my universe" is wonderful ! I now really feel in my soul,  that it is wonderful. After all the work we did with Clear Talk and Soul Coaching, Gabrielle began to share with me her gift of Breathwork.
If you haven’t tried Breathwork, it is worth every dime to learn how Breath, meditate and relax in a knowing that all is safe.  I learned so much about the flow of energy through your body. I learned to recognize how I was absorbing so many others negative energy and the affect it was having on my own soul. Not only did I learn to recognize it, I learned not to accept it as my own.  For me, that was a wonderful gift. Gabrielle is such a blessing and I am excited that she may touch more souls, and their lives may become as balanced and fulfilled as mine is now. In just a short time, she taught me  the "Life and Love" skills that we all need to live peacefully in this universe.  I now feel that I have the aura of inner peace, strength and love that I longed for when I met Gabrielle.
Forever I am grateful to the love and peace she was so gracious to share.

Breathwork builds health and vitality. Undertaken in a soothing and relaxing atmosphere, our approach to breathwork is based on a conscious connecting with the natural breath. Over time, it cultivates an experience of breathing freed from control by the human will. By allowing the natural breath to emerge, the breathing process itself begins to release tensions. We can then respectfully gain access to the body’s vital energies.

You are unique in your experience of life. Breathwork emphasizes the body-mind connection in a way that respects each client’s current emotional, mental, and physical state. We do not impose a single breathing technique, but rather observe, teach, and coach the opening of the breath according to your specific needs. We begin with personal profiling and assessment to formulate a system that will address your individuality, wherever you are in your personal journey.

For example, Gabrielle will often combine appropriate level yoga classes with the breathwork sessions. To open the breath, we might first condition and open the body. If there are restrictions in the body’s muscular support of respiration, gentle yoga poses can mindfully release those tensions. Gabrielle’s approach to breath is creative and spiritual, innovative and unique. The intention is to create the balanced and integrated body-mind environment necessary for healing inner sources of conflict and discomfort. With discernment and practice, breathworks promotes inner peace and spiritual attunement

" In freeing the natural breath, we not only gain access to our vital life energies but also open a gateway to higher consciousness and our own inner powers of healing."
--Kathleen Barratt , Virginia Beach

Breathwork Testimonials:

From my personal experience with breathwork and the experiences of my students, I have come to believe that it is one of the single most important practices for personal transformation. But there are many forms and approaches to breathwork, and it's not easy to know which one is safest and most likely to enhance the integration of body, mind, and spirit. The methods and philosophy of breathwork taught by Gabrielle Gerard have deeply impressed me. The approach is simple, yet profound. It is gentle, yet deep. I recommend it to anyone who is ready to deepen his or her meditation life and to explore the human body as a fabulous energy system.
