I’ve been exploring Breathwork for about 10 years now and over the past 1 1/2 years have been more consciously practising cold exposure.
For me, it’s been life-changing for me in the ways that it clears, balances and aligns my body, mind and soul and it has also enhanced my appreciation and desire to connect with water. I also know that it’s been very impactful on my ability to relax and deepen my connection to my Intuition.
The purpose of the Breath and Ice experience during this retreat was to take the group through a deep cleanse and clearing before crafting their Vibrational Essence - in order to create from the power within, we needed them to experience some of it for themselves.

We had to place an order for our ice beforehand as we required 70kgs of ice for this to work. In Australia, Ice is sold in 5kg bags and is pretty cheap and easy to purchase in large amounts, while in Japan, Ice is moderately priced and is usually sold in bags of 550g, 1kg or 2kg.
Usually, there is only a small amount on display at Japanese Supermarket, so it was quite a surprise for someone to ask for all the ice in their store.
Can you imagine the look on the checkout counter?

Using a combination of English and Japanese translations from my Wife, we led the group through some Breathwork exercises to prepare them for the Ice Bath.
The power of our Breath is such an amazing thing because we can breathe at different speeds and rates and hold our breathe for different lengths of time to influence our physiology, psychology and presence.

Each member took to the ice in their own way and were very enthusiastic about the experience. I’m so proud of them for the ways that they handled their time in the ice and I love the way that they all bonded and supported each other outside of the ice afterwards.

My Son played an important role in helping our group members to warm up afterwards too!
After the Breath and Ice, our group was ready for the next part of their Vibrational Essence Making at Oshino Hakkai, which we'll cover in the next post.
