Breathwork
Transformational Breathwork
What Is Breathwork?
This is a practice where we use the power of breath to achieve a specific goal – to calm down the nervous sytem or relax physical body, to focus or produce endogenous DMT.
There are many ways to “touch the nose” and there are many ways to breathe. The type of breathwork to engage in depends on what you want to achieve and how much time you are willing to invest in this practice. It allows to go within ourselves and listen to the inner voice for clarity and wisdom, that guiding light called intuition. That is the compass we want to follow!
How It Works
- Lay down or sit down
- Decide what type of breathwork you want to engage in
- Breathe in and breathe out
- We will guide you - just relax and follow along
- Become an observer and accept each moment

Benefits of Deep Breathing
- Improved circulation and gas exchange
- Improved oxygen delivery to cells
- Improved carbon dioxide removal from the cells and tissues
- Alkalized blood pH
- Reduced inflammation of the body
- Improved mood and well-being
- Release of stress hormones from your body
- Reduction in anxiety, anger, frustration
- Better mental focus
- Deeper, more restful sleep
- Release of emotions stored in our physical and mental bodies
There are many excellent ways to breathe, but consistency is key. It is better to do a simple breathwork session every day, rather than “the best one” once in awhile. Results are often cumulative and compound over time, but all require some level of dedication and discipline.

Is Breathwork Safe?
Yes, it is! However, deep breathing and breath holds should not be performed in the water.
Generally, breathwork is safe, however extended breath holds may on occasion lead to loss of consciousness. These “blackouts” are not dangerous and the body resumes breathing air shortly after the event. Due to loss of motor function in the pool or a body of water, this practice is not recommended! Always have a friend nearby.
The key to breathwork are consistency and listening to your body. There is so much our bodies communicate with us and it is important to learn to listen and allow any emotions, feeling and ideas to come through. The ego during these practices is usually relaxed.
- Let's breath in and have FUN!
- We all engage in it - let's breathe with a purpose
- You will feel the difference after the first session
- Inhale love, exhale gratitude
Breathwork is an Integral Part of the 7-Day Retreat!
We are happy to share this mindfulness practice and build it into your regular daily routine. Throughout our process, you will find yourself deeply relaxed and present with each moment while you oxygenate the body and remove carbon dioxide. Another benefit of regular breathwork practice is being able to listen to your mind and observe without interfering and giving energy to what the ego might be saying – both positive or negative. We are fully able to become observers and witness the inner workings of the ego from one moment to another without engagement. It is so worth it to calm the “monkey mind” and just observe.

From the very beginning I sensed that Niko and Karina were the right facilitators for me… and beyond that, allies, partners in the journey. Literally all I had to do was look into their eyes. They embody all the energy that is necessary for fulfilling the role of allowing people to enter into a place of immense vulnerability, in order to do the true work of letting go that is the foundation of Kambo medicine. Both Karina and Niko bring different vibrations but always complementary, and work brilliantly together to provide a comprehensive experience that informs and empowers participants, while creating a safe container to allow themselves to be exposed, seen, and held every step of the way.

If you are here reading this, know that it is no coincidence. Niko and Karina are powerful, loving and inspiring beings who will hold space for your individual process of evolution in all dimensions. They will unconditionally accept and meet you where you are while simultaneously challenging you to dig deeper, in the most gentle and loving way. The way their three day process builds upon itself to the grand exclamation point is planned out beautifully and the individual attention is unparalleled. Trust your intuition, trust the process, and go for it. Be prepared for your life to change.

Hi, This is Katherine. I have had an RTT session with Niko. And he knows how to lead the RTT session for an effective transformation. His session showed me to feel better about myself and let go of the limiting beliefs I have acquired from the events in my childhood. I highly recommend his services. And he is very positive, supportive and uses encouraging words to assist me in finding the scenes and asking the right questions to uncover the limiting beliefs. He is professional and very competent in what he does and he knows how to help people with their issues.

Karina and Niko have a gift for making you feel seen, heard, and held as you explore the depths of your Being. It’s been about 3 weeks since we completed our Kambo and Bufo sessions and we are still integrating. The sessions have had a tremendous impact on both myself and my partner. We feel reborn and are taking quantum leaps in our development as individuals and as partners. I highly recommend partnering with Niko and Karina when you are ready to take the leap. To push past your boundaries, to face your fears, and to discover a whole new side of yourself and of life. Their knowledge of the medicines and their professionalism allowed for a powerful, transformational experience. Thank you both for everything that you have done for…

What an amazing experience! I would have never thought that having a bath in 0 degree water – AKA – Cold Water Therapy, could be so healing in a spiritual sense, I heard of the physical benefits, but Karina Love and Niko make this experience so wonderful by making sure there is a clear intention behind this moment. I learnt once more what living the NOW in gratitude means, I was so deep in grattitude for my body, grattitude for having the chance to experience acceptance of what it is in despite of what the body might feel and the mind might think… that what it felt to me like 30 seconds was in reality 2 minutes and a half! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
