18 & 19 January
Birkagården, St. Eriksplan, Stockholm
2 Days of Somatic Breathwork & more
With Bashar Waleed
Discover the Healing Power of Breathwork
Our breath holds immense wisdom. With each inhale, we allow life force energy to flow into our bodies. With each exhale, we release what no longer serves us, detoxifying our bodies from toxins. While this process happens partly involuntarily, bringing awareness to our breath enables us to connect with ourselves, fostering healing on both emotional and physical levels. In this session, we will explore various breathwork modalities, using the breath as a powerful tool to access different parts of our consciousness and release what holds us back. This journey can be intense and transformative, offering a safe space to feel and express all emotions without judgment. It helps us tap into the innate freedom and love we possess, both towards ourselves and the world around us.
The session can be conducted in English if needed; otherwise, it will be held in Swedish.

Why Breathwork?
Breathwork, an ancient practice refined over centuries, unlocks profound emotional and physical benefits, addressing the core of our well-being. Widely used in yoga through Pranayama, it has been developed to enhance various aspects of health.
Our breath is the vessel that connects our spirit to our body. By bringing greater awareness to our breath, we strengthen this connection, allowing us to become more attuned to both our physical body and our inner spirit. This deep connection opens the door to greater self-awareness, helping us access deeper layers of our consciousness, including the insights hidden within our subconscious and higher consciousness.
- Emotional Regulation: Breathwork helps navigate and release pent-up emotions, and alleviate stress, anxiety, and overwhelm.
- Physical Health: Deep breathing enhances oxygen delivery, boosts energy, improves sleep, supports detoxification, and strengthens the immune system. It also promotes cardiovascular health and reduces disease risk by optimizing cellular function and clearing toxins.
- Mental Clarity and Presence: By altering breath depth and rhythm, breathwork fosters calm, mental clarity, and emotional balance. It connects us to the present moment, enhancing resilience and overall well-being.
- Holistic Benefits: Conscious breathing supports alignment with your core strength and opens pathways to inner peace and profound insights. It addresses disruptions caused by physical, emotional, or mental stress, restoring balance and improving life quality.

About the facilitator
Bashar Waleed
Coming from diverse cultural backgrounds, Bashar has spent half his life in Iraq and the other half in Sweden. This unique upbringing has provided him with a deep understanding that transcends geographical boundaries, emphasizing the interconnectedness between Eastern and Western perspectives. He believes that despite attempts to differentiate ourselves from others, we are fundamentally interconnected and harbor vast reservoirs of love and wisdom within.
For the past five years, Bashar has actively contributed to the creation of various tantra festivals and retreats across Europe. He holds a profound passion for sacred sexuality and conscious relating, focusing on how individuals relate to themselves, their bodies, and others.
In addition to his tantra work, Bashar integrates shamanic practices and tools, drawing from seven years of experience working with different plant medicines. His offerings include a wide range of services, from retreats and workshops to personalized 1:1 sessions, available both in-person and online.
His guiding quote reflects his belief in the transformative power of opening one’s heart: “Open your heart and Thrive! It is your greatest gift to the world. Letting your inner light radiate to dispel darkness within and without.”
