She was walking on the sidewalk. A car drove by and she cringed. Not knowing why, feeling anxious while seemingly she was safe. But she didn’t feel safe.
Experiences from our past determine how we react and feel in this moment. We can either let that be and choose to live with that, or we can choose to release old patterns that don’t serve us any more and create new, more helpful habits and ultimately reactions.
When you choose the second path and are looking for ways to heal, to feel more energetic and free yourself, you are at the right address.
BreathWorks specialises at releasing trauma and chronic tension from our bodies simply by using something we all have and can use at any time:
OUR BREATH
What is BreathWork?
‘Breathwork’ is a collective name for practises that include the use of breath in a conscious way. There are many varieties that range from easy minute practises to hour long sessions. Using your breath in a conscious way is a powerful tool to connect with yourself and your needs, contributing to your resilience, your wellbeing and your vitality.
“Whatever your experience is right now, trust you can get in touch with the innate wisdom of your body and let go of ‘stuck’ energy that may linger. Freeing yourself from ‘holding’ this energy will help you feel more vibrant and joyful in your life!”

What clients are saying
“I was able to experience the breathing session series for trauma release with Lisanne. She is an amazing facilitator. I really enjoyed the sessions. Through this process the body is able to release the unnecessary blocked tensions and emotions we accumulate and repress. I really liked that it is a non-verbal process. I highly recommend this process!”
“It was time to release tension in my system again. The workshop was exactly what I was looking for. My breath has shown me where I am building tension in my body. Even in places I wasn’t aware of. After the workshop I literally felt liberated, a burden was lifted off me. I felt lighter, freer in my movements and clear and energetic again.”
“If you are curious about breathwork, you’ll find warm, kind and professional support with Lisanne. I did the full breathwork series. With her gentle guidance, I was able to breathe more fully in my entire body. I felt held and safe in her presence and was able to let my body move without feeling ashamed. She noticed when I was not present anymore and was able to get my attention back to the body and breath.”
“Lisanne has definitely developed a great understanding of the body and how to guide someone through releasing thoughts and ideas about past issues that are stored in the body that no longer serve us. She is 100% present when doing this and holds space to help guide one through these traumatic experiences. I believe her training has allowed her to tap into an intuitive gift that she has been given and we are lucky that she shares her gift!”
“Pleasant, safe and effective. Warm and loving. Most important: attention to the individual. From the head, into the heart and body. Working in a safe environment and balance between the mind, the heart and the soul. Special to experience the power of breathing. Valuable.”
How Does BBTRS® Work?
BBTRS integrates 6 elements that are integrated during a breathing session to help support the body to release chronic tension and return to its natural and balanced state:
Meditation
Meditation is the basis of BBTRS®. It is used to support resonance in the practitioner and integration for the client. It is the natural resting state the mind and body often return to after BBTRS® sessions. Different approaches to meditation can be used in sessions or workshops, from active meditations to silently sitting or laying down resting.
Deep connected breathing
BBTRS® uses deep connected breathing to charge the body to activate specific belts of muscular tension and emotional patterns. The breath is also used to calm the body down and resource, using the connected breathing as a constant factor throughout the session. The sessions are designed to stimulate and rebalance your mind and body from head to toe.
Movement
BBTRS® uses somatic and creative movement exercises to allow vibration and release held energy in the body’s tissues. This may include fascial opening, core tension release and therapeutic use of dance. This array of movement from playful warm-ups to whole-body shaking and undulating spinal waves is what makes BBTRS® truly transformative.
Emotions
Soft emotional release can be part of a BBTRS® session, but is not a goal. You are supported to stay present while revisiting deeper feelings and sensations – and return to your own sense of comfort whenever necessary. This balance is key to the BBTRS® approach. It supports you to release and integrate trauma, rather than simply relive it or become overwhelmed.
Conscious touch
BBTRS® uses conscious touch on many levels, from the body’s energetic field to contact with core muscles. It is applied with consent and sensitivity to increase awareness and support energy flow.
Sound
Sound is one of the most powerful and supportive tools used in BBTRS® sessions. The effects of sound on our nervous system are truly remarkable. By using vocalization, recordings and live instrumental sounds, this element becomes a huge resource in the sessions.
