Somatic Breathwork uses breathing techniques to
release unneeded energy within the body’s electrical network. “It liberates
people from the stress and overwhelm that lies unprocessed in our body so that
we become free in our mind,” says Morgan Tyner, currently the only certified
Somatic Breathwork practitioner in Alabama and Mississippi. “It’s an embodiment
experience that takes you out of your thinking mind and into your body’s
electrical network that truly gives you back the power and reminds your body that
breathing is a natural tool for self-regulation to maintain a state of calm and
self-awareness. Breathwork is an ancient medicine that is of the body, natural
and God-given.”
About a
year ago, Somatic Breathwork found Tyner. After a busy career in the blogging
industry, she realized that hustle and showing up was what mattered most.
Sleep, friends, family, rest and self-care were not valued in the industry.
“Your respect in the industry was primarily based on that hustle,” recalls
Tyner. But last year, she had a realization that this hustle mindset may have
helped her reach success, but it couldn’t lead her to where she wanted to be.
She was terrified.
“My husband
and I spent last summer living in Sevilla, Spain. While there, I had a lot of
time to reflect. I felt incredibly dissociated from my body. Coming back to
Fairhope from Spain, I felt more mis-aligned than ever,” says Tyner. “One
afternoon, I got on YouTube and came across a daily five-minute Somatic
Breathwork Meditation. I felt the Holy Spirit loudly say, ‘click play, Morgan.’
So, I did.” It changed her life.
Now a fully
trained and certified Somatic Breathwork practitioner, Tyner offers guided
breathwork sessions in both English and Spanish and feels it is a great honor
to hold space for people in such a sacred, freeing modality. “This work is
truly a way to help people reconnect inward and heal,” she says.
Tyner’s
business, Respira with Morgan, offers one-on-one or group sessions either
in-person or virtual. In addition, she does small business and corporate
wellness sessions. “I am thrilled to announce that in-person live events will
be coming in the near future around the Eastern Shore and beyond,” adds Tyner.
