My breathwork obsession began when a mutual friend introduced me to breathwork facilitator Carmen Ganne and I did a session with her as part of my research into the benefits of breathwork, particularly, how it can help release stress and anxiety.
That session was the first time I’ve felt such a huge clearing of old, stuck emotions, as though I had been given the keys to truly inhabit my own body. I also felt an opening to the Spirit realm that I’ve only read about.
For me, Breathwork is the most supportive practice I’ve discovered. (In case you haven’t noticed we talk about it a lot around here!) So much so, that I’ve done breathwork facilitator training and have begun holding space for others.
Remarkably, the experience of doing breathwork online can be extremely supportive, and has given me a chance to practice with some of the world’s best teachers. Here, I’m sharing this list of offers for anyone else who wants to try breathwork online. While I’d definitely recommend doing your first few breathwork classes live with a practitioner, doing breathwork online is a great way to continue to practice on your own. If you’re curious about this practice, send me a DM and I’ll be happy to answer any questions you have.
Tai Hubbert’s Virtual Breathwork Journeys
As a holistic, integrative practitioner, Tai’s breathwork sessions are designed to help people untangle toxic patterns and move towards greater awareness, freedom, peace, and fulfillment. With a background in meditation, yoga, earth medicine and shamanism, she brings a wide toolkit to support the breathwork students that she guides in the small group ceremonies and one-to-one work she offers. You can expect to feel deeply supported by Tai’s Breathwork online. She offers a beautiful guided meditation, and powerful energy to the groups she holds space for. I highly recommend trying one of her upcoming gatherings.
Ana Lilia’s Community Breathwork Gatherings
Ana Lilia’s teaching philosophy is “you can change the way you feel by changing the way you breathe”. Ana offers by-donation community breathwork online, breathwork mastermind events for manifestation, and one-to-one sessions. I’ve tried her community breathwork meditations and love the energy, enthusiasm and authenticity she brings. When Ana offers breathwork online, she invites people to show up, share what’s coming up emotionally (or not) and remember that we’re not alone. The group begins with a check in, and then moves into conscious connected breathwork, an active breathing practice that she explains at the start. With an open mouth and relaxed jaw, you breathe into the belly, then the heart, and then release. The flow should be continuous. Ana’s gentle guided meditation supports the journey, helping each person let go and release. The community gatherings are less than one hour long, yet powerful. A great way to start the weekend.

Shanila Sattar’s Sunday Breathwork Circles
I’ve had the pleasure of doing many breathwork sessions with Shanila, and have also taken her breathwork training program for healers. Shanila blends her breathwork online sessions with energy healing, mantras, and moon meditations. She is a truly gifted facilitator and healer, with the capacity to hold sacred space in an incredibly accessible way. I particularly love her guided meditations. Explore her upcoming offerings here!
Annalise Sullivan’s Breathwork Healing Circles
A very popular west coast teacher, Annalise offers a variety of breathwork and intuitive healing circles online, designed to empower her students to become their own healers. Her intention is to (in her words!) “bring the emotional revolution out of your unconscious mind, and make it a living, breathing part of your evolution.” Annalise’s online breathwork gatherings offer a somatic healing experience, teaching you how to go beyond your perceived limits and connect to the strength at the very core of your essential nature. Explore her upcoming breathwork events.
Bree Melanson’s Breathwork Events
As a spiritual medium and channel, Bree often begins her breathwork gatherings with a channelled message and meditation. She’s a unique teacher. She seems more like someone you’d meet at a cool party than be guided in meditation by. That said, she’s definitely got a remarkable gift, that I’ve experienced directly having both done a breathwork session online with her and listened to her channeled messages from what she calls “interdimensional light beings”. I’m not sure what I personally believe about channeling (Bree says she channels Jesus and the Arcturians) but there’s no doubt the messages I’ve heard Bree channel are powerful and true messages that this world needs to hear. For a truly unique Breathwork journey, I’d recommend checking out Bree’s online offerings.
