Decolonise Your Practice

Decolonise Your Practice: Unlearn the ways supremacy culture has seeped into your practice with this 3-month training. 

Learn the ways we can become part of the medicine in these current times.
Inspire Breathwork has developed a concise 3-month course for professionals that work with people on a 1-to-1 basis and in groups to decolonise their work, their role and their practice.

We are here to tread the line between ancient wisdom and the modern world.

This is a decolonised course curriculum that honours the path of the medicine through a decolonial human lens.
We dismantle the colonial contamination of healing and reclaim it back from the ways that western psychological frameworks has commodified health and healing as a luxury.

This training is a distilliation of the years of work I have done with Inspire Breathwork and professionals in the wellness industry and the healing industry.

This course is an answer to what many professionals have asked me. I don’t offer any other training on professional development, and there are many folks who have already trained in a modality but would like to learn how to do their work in alignment with liberation and freedom.

This course addresses the wounds of our modern context, allowing us to learn how to facilitate healing and transformation in a way that is sensitive to systemic oppressions and fosters inclusive, equitable spaces.

This is a 3-month Online Training for Professionals
This course is delivered as 9 x 2-hour workshops that includes elements of: Seminars, Supervised Applications, Practical Exercises, and small group support. This certified training will develop you into a competent professional to apply socially just approaches to your work.

On completion of the course and passing necessary examinations, you will receive a Certificate of Completion with confirmation of authenticity when required.

Course Objectives:

1. Understand power and how we are taught to abuse it
The analysis of power and how it is used in systems of oppression is a sadly missed practice that will lead to liberation. This objective asks us to understand our social mapping and our location to understand how power works, how to witness the abuse of it and how to leverage it to bring about change.

2. Understand ethical consent practices that empower individuals
Equip you with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to practice safe, trauma-informed, and impactful consent practices that welcome diverse groups and individuals.

3. Expand our Lens of Trauma and The Politics of Trauma
To acknowledge the limited lens we have been trained in and stretch our capacity to welcome the complexities of working with trauma in the wake of coloniality. To become nuanced in our exploration and welcome all that is present.

4. Integrate decolonial principles into our business and infiltrate Capitalism with small acts of liberation
Arm you with the skills to bring a decolonial approach into your business fostering systemic change from within.

The Vision

My mission is the commitment to an activist approach to wellness, where breathwork is a tool for personal and societal empowerment, fostering well-being and equity. The current colonial frameworks in wellness depend on our discontent and our disempowerment, to actively disrupt wellness means to empower people in their own liberations.

Inspire Breathwork aims to steward the next generation of breathworkers, actively seeking to bring breathwork out of the wellness industry and infiltrate into to the public domain and key institutions that are often neglected: schools, prisons, corporations, hospitals, etc.

There are 2 key aspects to this approach:

The first is the need to empower individuals to reconnect, rekindle and remember their inherent power within their own bodies, to cultivate belonging, safety and dignity in their own healing processes as a process of reclamation – reclamation of strength, of agency, of trust, of breath and of the earth beneath them.

The second stands to represent the lens that is needed to bring change, a lens that is able discern the ways our society has developed to oppress, to belittle and to delude us away from our sovereignty. The reclamation of our own bodies and the lens that allows us to see the systems in play, allow us to be active changemakers within society and within the wellness industry.

The awareness of colonialism in wellness and the world, gives us opportunity to heal from the wounds of our modern context. This allows a chance to actively attend what it might mean to birth a new world. If we empower people to become free, liberated from the confines of colonialism and capitalism, we may find solutions to some of our biggest problems.

If you want to be part of the evolution of healing and learn how you can contribute to change in a way that is rooted in justice and liberation, this training is for you.
