Most of us go through life never knowing who we really are.
Society pulls us in every direction.
Our fears, inner wounds and unresolved issues hold us back.
We lack connection to our higher selves.
We’re not aligned to who we really are.
We never see what we’re truly capable of.
We live a life of struggle.
Our souls suffer.
We feel an inner disharmony which often leads to illness and disease.

Activates Your SOMA and Awakens to
You need to go back to the source.
To connect to who you really are.
This is what SOMA Breath does.
It awakens you to your true identity.
It does this by activating your soma.
The soma is the core of your brain cells.
It contains the nucleus and other essential cellular components.
It’s the control center of your brain.
It produces chemical information which sends signals to other cells.
It’s a melting pot of endogenous hormones and chemicals which are similar in action to DMT–the psychedelic substance found in ayahuasca.
SOMA Breath activates your soma.
Your neurons start firing.
They release dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, and endorphins–-giving you a spiritual experience similar to DMT.
Your whole brain lights up.
You enter into extreme blissful states of awareness, oneness, and connection.
You reach a peak state of ecstasy.
It awakens you at a spiritual level.
You awaken to who you really are.
You feel a deep sense of connection with yourself.
You get clarity on what direction to take your life.
You discover what you really desire.
Not what society manipulates you into thinking you desire.
This leads you to a powerful transformation.
You’re able to manifest your dream life.

This is why researchers at Cambridge University compared SOMA Breath to psychedelics.
They studied the effects of The 21-Day Awakening Breath Journey on 14 participants who practiced it daily for 28 days.
Participants reported heightened states of bliss, insightfulness, and spiritual insights.
Researchers also noticed changes at a biological level–brain activity became more complex and diverse.
This is no surprise–this was their soma being activated.
However, you don’t need to take magic mushrooms or ayahuasca to have a spiritual experience.
We can gently and lovingly guide you to your spiritual awakening with SOMA Breath.
Experience a 5-Day Spiritual Awakening
Awaken to Your Highest Self and Attain True Meaning in Your Life
This August 6-11 the SOMA Tribe are coming together for something special.
We’re going to breathe, heal, grow… and awaken to who we really are… at the foothills of the Austrian Alps.
Surrounded by stunning peaks, valleys, and Alpine forests… we will practice SOMA Breath and awaken together.
And we want YOU to join us.
This retreat is based on the same Awakening protocol participants went through in the Cambridge study.
Except I’ll facilitate and guide you through it in-person.
During the 5 days, you’ll awaken to who you really are and to the real meaning of your life.

Harnessing the energy of the high-vibe environment while you dream up your perfect life. We'll use the power of group manifestation, going deeper within and enhancing your vision. You'll look at every area of your life and create a vivid emotional blueprint, commanding your subconscious mind to find a path to your chosen destination.

Through the power of SOMA Breathwork, yoga, dance, inspirational talks, deep meditations and other amazing activities, you will supercharge the vision that you have for your perfect future raising your vibrational energy each and every day.

A big part of achieving what you want in life is to release tension in your body. This means releasing old limiting belief patterns that are holding you back, releasing emotional blockages and even releasing attachment to your vision so that you can focus on the steps ahead.
