Christina Read calls into question, what it is to be a person? Read acknowledges that being a person is hard. Her new commission for Tauranga Art Gallery’s atrium provides a space of goodwill and solace. In support of Christina's exhibition Toi Tauranga in collaboration with mediation and breathwork coach Camilla Drema present...
Winter Connections, is an evening series of meditation and breathwork.
These sessions will start with hot cacao and gentle sharing circles to connect with your community.
Then connect with yourself and your breath with a 20-minute guided breathwork session followed by a 20-minute mediation session, supported and guided by Camilla.
If you are new to breathwork, here are just some incredible benefits:
- Unclutters our minds, leading to Heightened Presence
- Improves Brain Health & Cognitive Function
- Boosts Immunity (especially powerful during post COVID times)
- Helps Create a Robust Nervous System which helps with our capacity to create lasting changes (think re-wiring & keeping to our productivity goals!)
- Proven to help us Live Longer
- Alleviates Mental Health issues such as Anxiety & Depression
- Creates mind-to-body connection leading to operating from a state of calm & response > reactionary and triggered states
- Creates mental health shifts immediately, perfect for morning routines
- Great for team-building exercises that involve something healthier
- Stimulates creativity & memory
- & many more!
Dr James Nestor has a famous quote: "No matter what you eat, how much you exercise, how slim or young or wise you are, none of it matters if you're not breathing properly” which sums up how integral the health of our breath is to us.
We are slowing down, connecting to the mind & breathing ourselves free with Camilla on the last Wednesday of every month.
The breath connects mind to body, and our being to our emotions. It brings us from a higher heart rate down into rest & digest, allowing us to drop into our body and away from over thinking minds. Find a new sense of being and calm, while being taken on a visualisation journey that infuses the artist's stories & concepts.
We are delighted to bring you a whole new journey to experience in our gallery, perhaps experiencing the magic & power of Breath-work for the first time.
Breathe yourself free, become more present, grounded & calm in your life.
