The Leonard Orr Method of Rebirthing Breathwork
1970s Rebirthing Breathwork
When Rebirthing Breathwork was first discovered the original Rebirthers used mouth breathing because they breathed through a snorkel in a hot tub. The original Rebirthers spread conscious connected breathing across the world and created their own variations.
Meanwhile Leonard kept perfecting the technique. Leonard spent time every year with Mahavatar Haidakhan Babaji who is the founder of conscious connected breathing. Babaji told Leonard, “breathe with the nose, eat with the mouth.” Leonard adopted nose breathing.
Nose Breathing
There are many reasons why some people cannot nose breathe and this is ok, mouth breathing is then done. Even during a sessions it is often necessary to revert to mouth breathing. The session should be started and finished with nose breathing.
Mouth breathing allows a person to access emotional states and is incredibly important if these have been repressed. In Rebirthing it’s important to understand how this can turn into emotional drama and a Rebirther is trained in helping a client through as well as integrating emotional situations. Returning to nose breathing allows a person to understand situations from a greater perspective.
Nose and mouth breathing use different Nadi systems.
