Breathwork
The simple act of breathing brings us back to the here and now, creating space between life’s demands and how we respond. Through conscious breath, we soften, release and reconnect, allowing the body to settle, the mind to quiet and our natural rhythm to return.
Why everybody should use their breath to optimise their life
01
Intentional breathing can increase physiological arousal and alertness, helping you shift from feeling depleted into a more energised, awake and present state.
Boost energy
Shift your state, find more energy
02
Shift your nervous system out of overwhelm and into a more regulated state, creating the mental space to think clearly, focus and respond rather than react.
Clear the mind
Create space for clearer thinking
03
Conscious breathing influences the autonomic nervous system, helping reduce stress and tension while encouraging the body to move towards a calmer, more regulated state.
Release stress
Exhale what the mind is holding
04
Deepen connection
Breathing in a group creates a coherent field and a moment of presence. By slowing down and becoming more aware of ourselves, we create greater capacity for connection, empathy and engagement.
Come back to yourself and each other
05
Intentional breathing can stimulate the vagus nerve and support the body’s natural shift towards rest and regulation, helping you feel more grounded, present and restored.
Reset and restore
Pause, reset, return differently
A solid foundation creates a beautiful container for expansion
At Third Space we combine ancient wisdom and science to deliver transformational breathwork classes that help unlock deeper intimacy with the body enabling growth and expansion towards a more optimised self.

We draw on the science of breath and the nervous system to thoughtfully shape each experience from calming the body and settling the mind, to creating energy, clarity and emotional release.
Our guided breathing practices are designed to meet you where you are, helping you shift your state, reconnect with your body and create change that can be felt long after the breathwork ends.
-
Through carefully guided sequences of breath, sound and awareness, we create space to step out of habitual patterns and begin rewiring limiting neural pathways. This opens up new possibilities for how we think, feel and respond.
It’s more than breathing or meditation. It’s an invitation to shift your state, reconnect with your body and give your nervous system the opportunity to find a new rhythm.
-
Through breath, body awareness and intentional movement, we bring new insights out of the mind and into the body, creating space to recognise, release and shift patterns held within us. Our somatic practices help you embody change, allowing the experience to ripple into everyday life.
Through breath we return to ourselves
Breath is one of the few things that connects the inner and outer worlds. It moves between the conscious and unconscious, the body and the mind, the doing and the being. By bringing awareness to something as simple and essential as breathing, we create an opportunity to shift our state, soften what we're holding and become more present to the moment.
With practice, this awareness begins to extend beyond the session. We become more attuned to the signals of the body, more conscious of how we respond to life, and more able to meet each moment with presence rather than habit. The breath becomes a pathway home; to ourselves, to the present, and to what matters.
“Breath is the bridge which connects life to consciousness.”
— Thich Nhat Hanh
Tailored Breathwork
& Wellness Sessions
Breathwork is a powerful way to open a wellness day. It helps people arrive, slow down, and gently shift from a state of doing to being.
An estimated 95% of the population experiences dysfunctional breathing patterns, keeping many of us locked in a state of high stress and chronic fight-or-flight. Conscious breathwork is a powerful antidote. By stimulating the vagus nerve and activating the body’s parasympathetic nervous system, intentional breathing regulates heart rate, eases anxiety, improves sleep, and builds lasting resilience.
When our physiology settles, we feel safe enough to connect, think clearly, and engage deeply with the world. Whether used as a standalone practice or as a grounding preparation for meditation, breathwork creates the space to settle into stillness.
We work closely with you to shape an experience tailored to your people, culture, and environment. Whether you are looking for a gentle moment of calm, a deeper wellbeing experience, or a bespoke session, we will collaborate with you to create a meaningful experience that meets your team’s exact needs.
A few options to consider:
Flexible Durations: Sessions typically range from 60 to 120 minutes, tailored to your schedule, intention, and desired outcome.
Reflective and Integration Practices: Sessions can extend into guided journaling, group connection, or open sharing, inviting participants to reflect on their experience and carry these wellness tools into life outside of work.

Breathwork is a practice that utilises conscious breathing techniques to enhance physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. It involves various exercises that can be tailored to individual needs and goals.
-
Breathwork involves using specific breathing techniques to influence the body's physiological state. By consciously controlling the breath, individuals can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, reduce stress, and promote relaxation. It can also help in releasing stored emotions and improving mental clarity.
-
Breathwork can reduce stress and anxiety, increase energy levels, improve mental clarity, enhance emotional balance, and support overall health by optimising oxygen flow and releasing tension. It can also improve sleep quality and boost the immune system.
-
Breathwork helps regulate the autonomic nervous system, shifting the body from a state of stress (fight-or-flight) to relaxation (rest-and-digest), thereby reducing cortisol levels and promoting calmness. Regular practice can lead to long-term improvements in stress management and emotional wellbeing.

When practiced under the guidance of a trained facilitator or instructor, breathwork is generally safe. It's important to follow instructions carefully and listen to your body during sessions to avoid discomfort or hyperventilation. Individuals with certain medical conditions (e.g., cardiovascular issues, high blood pressure) should consult a healthcare professional before starting breathwork practices. Pregnant women should also seek medical advice before participating. It's important to practice under the guidance of a trained facilitator to ensure safety.

During a session, you will be guided through specific breathing techniques designed to induce relaxation or promote energy release. Sessions can vary in length and intensity based on individual needs.
