I am a certified Rebirth (Conscious Connected Breathing) Practitioner with the Australian Institute of Rebirthing (A.I.R.)
What is Rebirthing? Rebirthing is a simple method of breathing which helps to quieten the mind, relax the body and connect more deeply to the spirit aspects of ourself.
Just like elite sports people use oxygen therapy to speed up healing and recovery, extra oxygen intake in the form of consciously connected deeper breathing produces similar and much more gentle results. Often people feel like they’ve been “reborn” after a breathing session and it shows most obviously on their face, making them look younger, more at peace and more alive. I personally re-experienced details of my own birth which I confirmed with my mother to her incredible surprise.
I’ve had clients who regained full vision (one no longer needing glasses or contact lenses) and another no longer needing anti-depressants to soothe her chronic anxiety.
As practitioners, we aren’t looking for clients to become dependent on us. We show them quickly, easily and completely, how to do it for themselves.
Here’s a story written by one of my clients on the 5th of September 1989.
Since I first heard of Rebirthing, I thought it was a relatively useless therapy – mainly used by “hippie types” to waste time. I made a mistake!
With the encouragement of a friend I did a course in June this year called Money & You. One of the games triggered a spontaneous rebirth. Mr Cool (that’s me) suddenly became a wailing, frightened child reliving my actual birth in front of 150 people. Although it was an intense experience, I loved it, and it only occurred because I wanted it to.
Elizabeth was there at the time and soothed me through it. After a few days I realized that what had happened was a very significant event, it showed me that I was carrying a lot of excess “baggage”. I wanted to get rid of the rest, as I was sure that the attitudes I had formed in early childhood, were in fact responsible for the self limiting and self sabotaging thoughts and actions that my life to this point in time had become.
I will complete my tenth Rebirthing session this week and I feel it to be the most useful technique for enhancing ones self esteem that I am currently aware of.
Elizabeth has been an extremely important part to this high point in my life. She is very adept at her part of the process which calls for much patience and intuition. I can only liken her skill to a combination of other traditional professions: Human Psychology, Teaching, Counseling etc. She has qualities of strength and gentleness that make our sessions such a pleasure to be a part of.
I have explored many different and complex methods of self development from alternative religions, to food and diet, but none have been so effective in such a short space of time as the combination of Elizabeth and Conscious Connected Breathing (Rebirthing). I thank you.
