An Experience in Conscious Connected Breathwork
7-8am, Saturday 28th June 2025
Avoca Beach Scout Hall
Breathe Less. Live Longer. A Guided Breathwork Journey.
Step into the power of Conscious Connected Breathwork, a potent blend of breath and music designed to unlock a flow state in body and mind. Experience moments of crystal clarity around your emotions, your inner pace, and what truly matters — all from the inside out. Join me for this powerful, music-infused experience of emotional release, rebalancing, and reconnection with your inner self.
Breathwork may seem like a modern wellness trend, but it’s deeply ancient — practiced in India, China, and Japan for centuries. Samurai instructors once placed feathers beneath their students' noses to train quiet, controlled breathing.
Since then, 3 things have changed. First, there aren’t any samurai left. Two, our understanding of the brain-body/body-brain relationship has exploded. And three, life has become fast, fast, fast.
Breathwork helps slow that pace by activating your body’s natural systems for healing, clarity, and balance. These practices have changed the way I live — and they can for you too.
Limited to 22 participants.

Instructor & Coach
Meet Mike, a decorated former paratroop commander now turned award-winning Leadership & Performance Coach. Mike helps people and teams reach their true potential by creating the conditions for them to excel. By focusing on what matters most.
What sparked his deep fascination with Breathwork? In short, an insatiable curiosity in devising simple, practical tools to help his clients (and himself) navigate life's challenges. So whether it's building better routines, overcoming stress, improving one's leadership, or sharpening the mind, Mike’s approach is grounded in everyday, meaningful application. He is frequently heard saying: "I want hacks and systems I can do while waiting for my coffee, or the green light"
That search led him to the iconic Cool2BeConscious movement where, after a life-changing breathwork retreat in the Hunter Valley, he became a qualified Breathwork & Meditation Practitioner.
Today, Mike’s work continues to transform lives by helping people shift focus, unlock potential, and discover true purpose.
Frequently Asked Questions
1: What is Breathwork?
Breathwork is a guided practice that uses intentional breathing to shift your physical, emotional, and mental state. In this session, we use Conscious Connected Breathing—a simple technique that calms the nervous system, activates the vagus nerve, and can lead to emotional release and deep clarity. It’s a powerful reset using nothing but your breath.
2: Are there any medical conditions that might make breathwork unsuitable for me?
Yes. Breathwork can create strong physical and emotional responses. If you have cardiovascular issues, epilepsy, recent surgeries, glaucoma, mental health conditions (e.g., psychosis, bipolar), or if you’re pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding, please consult your doctor before attending. If in any doubt, please email or text me, or speak to your doctor.
3: What should I wear and what should I bring?
Please bring a yoga mat, journal and pen, light blanket (I have some if you forget), a small cushion or pillow for support, water bottle, and wear loose, comfortable clothing. Eye masks and earplugs are provided.
4: Should I eat beforehand?
Breathwork is best experienced on an empty stomach. We recommend a light snack no less than an hour before the session. Avoid heavy meals to help you breathe and relax more easily.
5: How will it feel afterwards?
You may feel energised, emotional, deeply relaxed, or even a bit spaced out. Drink water, move gently, and give yourself time to integrate. Most people feel clearer, lighter, and more grounded.
6: Is this suitable for first-timers?
Absolutely. The session is guided from start to finish. You don’t need any experience—just an open mind and a willingness to breathe.
7: What if I feel overwhelmed or emotional?
That’s okay. Breathwork often brings up stored emotions. You’ll be guided safely, and there’s no pressure to "do it right." You’re in control at all times, and support is available throughout.
