Synopsis:
Conscious Breathing presents contemporary Breathwork methods in a comprehensive, structured way for modern readers. Emphasizing the practice as a way to access the most elevated states of consciousness and the deepest states of meditation, author Joy Manne shows how Breathwork can be applied to transpersonal, existential, past life, chakra, Kundalini, shamanic, and other experiences. Using detailed examples, case histories, and exercises, Conscious Breathing covers basic grounding and awareness, advanced breath and body-centered explorations, and explorations of biblical and religious teachings.

From 1989 to 1995 she ran her School of Personal and Spiritual Development, which focused on Breathwork as the central method. Manné currently sees individual clients and leads groups in Switzerland, where she lives. She teaches internationally, concentrating on Poland in particular.
