breathwork facilitator mentorship

Join me for a 4 month high level mentorship program to learn how to facilitate breathwork in a trauma informed and gentle way.

This comprehensive mentorship will be made up of an intimate group of passionate trained professionals who are looking to up level their practice and the way they work with people by incorporating breathwork.

 this program is ideal for you if:

• You are already a practitioner, therapist, coach, healer

• You want to incorporate breathwork into your practice as a tool for deeper transformation

• You are interested in learning a gentle and trauma-informed approach to facilitating breathwork

• You are excited to take a more somatic/body based approach to healing

• You are dedicated to using breathwork as a personal development tool for yourself on a the weekly basis

• You are desiring mentorship as a path to efficiently start integrating breathwork techniques and practices into your work with clients asap

• You feel a resonance with me (Jenn) and my personal style of facilitating breathwork and beliefs around this work

• You have a knowing that you are meant to explore breathwork as the next modality for your own personal healing as well as to benefit your work

If so, then I can help.

I’ve been doing breathwork and somatic work with thousands of folks over the past 5 years and have seen many many people transform their lives right in front of my eyes in an incredibly simple way. By breathing.

By inviting people to reconnect to their bodies and breath they open themselves up to feeling again. All of a sudden over the course of a few sessions many of the deep seated emotions and past experiences that have been lingering and left unprocessed in the body start to emerge. Seemingly almost without effort. When the right container is in place and there is trust with the facilitator a lot can transform and shift very quickly.

This is a different approach to healing. It’s not about “finding the thing that’s broken and fixing it”, no, it’s about making space for whatever naturally is ready to arise from the unconscious and subconscious mind to be witnessed and met with compassion, which in turn helps to rewire the beliefs, past experiences, hurt or stuckness, and rewrite the story of your life.

It’s simple. And boy did it ever take me a long time to get to the place where healing and moving forward in my life felt more simple. It took a ton of trial and error, learning and experimenting.

One thing that has been tremendously helpful to me on my journey has been mentorship.

why this group mentorship?

When you are learning an embodied practice or skill it is not enough to go just read about it in books. Just like the indigenous peoples passed on their embodied wisdom through stories, prayers, songs, and dances, it’s important to learn this work in a way that it really lands in your body as a deep ‘knowing’, which takes practice, templating, and feedback.

My intention in creating this mentorship program is that I guide a small group of dedicated individuals who are ready to support humanity to heal, become empowered, find their voices and their hearts, and ultimately step deeper onto their personal paths of service, to themselves and to those they serve in their business.

It’s not my intention to teach you all the fundamentals of what it means to hold space for someone or how to do an intake with your client etc. My desire is that you already know the fundamentals of working with people in a therapeutic way so that we can dive right into how breathwork works and how to use it. 

I see this practice as a really powerful tool and I want to focus on how this tool works and how you can use it in a safe and effective way and give you all the pieces and support you need to do that.

How does it work?

The mentorship small group program is four months long and split into two sections (two months each). The first half of our time together will focus on learning all about breathwork and how to take your clients through individual or group sessions and the second half will have you introducing your clients to this new modality with guidance and mentoring from me.

I will provide breathwork facilitator scripts, a framework for how to set people up for a session, outlines on how to prep people, playlists, various themes to explore, and steps of how to run a session, etc… all under the lens of how to facilitate in a trauma-informed way so that you can truly be of support to those you are working with instead of potentially creating more harm (which at times, breathwork can do).

I will be sharing all of my own experiences so that you can learn from my past mistakes and much more quickly start facilitating.

who am i?

You likely already know me, but if you don’t, my name is Jenn Mansell and I am a Certified Breathwork Facilitator and Somatic Coach.⁣⁣⁣⁣ I currently run a full time practice (online and in person) from Toronto, Canada and can be found facilitating many high vibe in person breathwork and conscious dance events all over the world.⁣⁣⁣⁣

My career began as a Food Scientist turned Holistic Nutritionist. It was really my life long journey of struggling with chronic health problems (eczema, asthma, multiple chemical sensitivities, chronic UTIs, major food allergies) that brought me to want to work in the field health and healing. I guess you could say my passion and curiosity was self motivated at that time.

It wasn’t too many years into my Holistic Nutrition career that I realized my ability to help people was limited.

I was running a private practice under a Women’s Health expert at her Functional Medicine clinic where I sat with women all day long that really didn’t want to talk about their food and nutrition as much as they did their stress, relationships and emotional hang ups and inability to sleep at night.

I realized very quickly into my career that I was going to need more tools if I really wanted to help people feel better.

Cue, coaching. I then got trained as a life coach, then in meditation facilitation, then eventually in breathwork.

It was really my own healing that brought me to breathwork. I’ll never forget the first time I was in a room with a group of 25 women breathing together. I had never experienced such powerful and deep transformation right before my eyes before. I told myself I would never forget that feeling in my body. And so, I of course followed it, although many years later.

I have since done multiple trainings with many teachers all over the world. Have sat in breath ceremony with some of the most incredible facilitators on the planet, and have dedicated my path of service to bringing this modality to the world one person at a time.

I breath every single day with myself before I show up to breath many other folks and am committed to continuing the path of embodying this work deeper in whatever ways I can.

 Why Breathwork is the #1 tool for these times

• It’s for (almost) everyone, accessible, everyone can breathe, you don’t need anything fancy to do it

• It can help you access a place inside your mind that exists beyond fear + survival based thoughts, therefore, helping you find creative solutions to the challenges you are currently facing

• It can help release stress, tension, and overwhelm from the body offering a chance for an experience of deep relaxation

• Is an incredible tool to use to navigate uncertain/unknown times

• Creates a deeper sense of embodied trust and the ability to access inner safety instead of continually looking outside of ourselves for the answers

• It helps us access our own sense of inner truth/clarity so we can take action from there, instead of following others we learn to lead ourselves

• Connects you back to the light, the love, the peace, the place inside beyond the dark, your heart

• It’s so simple to do and when practiced often we notice ourselves get better at “letting go” of our need to control our lives 

• Letting go of the old is an essential requirement in order to allow a new way forward to emerge

• Breathwork makes space for us to feel and process what is going on emotionally, spiritually, physically, and mentally in our lives

• Finally (and there are a 1000) more reasons. Diaphragmatic breathing strengthens your lungs, lung capacity and ability to deal with stress. Keys to overall health and well being.
