About Rebirthing Breathwork
Rebirthing Breathwork is a gentle, body-led practice that uses conscious connected breathing to work with patterns held in the nervous system. Rather than pushing for release or insight, the practice emphasizes safety, pacing, and presence.
This work supports the capacity to stay with sensation, emotion, and internal movement as they arise—without forcing change or performance. Over time, what once felt automatic can become more available to choice.
No prior breathwork experience is required.
MotherCircle is for you. Join a community of fierce mothers who grapple with the same profound questions, challenges, struggles, and triumphs. Gather with like-hearted mothers who understand the journey and find solace in shared experiences.
The Setting
Breathwork sessions will be held at End of the Road Ranch, located at the mouth of East Elk Creek Canyon in Newcastle, Colorado.
The ranch sits at the edge of the canyon, surrounded by the sound of the river, mature trees, open grasslands, and horses moving through the property. The setting offers a quiet, steady backdrop that supports settling and integration between sessions.

No. The purpose of this group is to explore the spiritual journey of becoming a mother, uncovering parts that call for resolution while simultaneously gaining resolution through gathering, sharing, witnessing and being witnessed.

Circle is for mamas only.
We are quite enmeshed with our children. When mamas are present by themselves and for themselves it is a different headspace - the awareness of the changes that we are going through as moms is more accessible.
Circle “works” best if moms come alone to be fully able to receive and rest from their caretaking duties.
