Right Relationships in Breathwork: Ethical Challenges in a Growing Field

Broadcast on January 12, 2023
With Jim Morningstar, PhD
Hosted by Steph Magenta

As the validity and popularity of breathwork grows worldwide, questions arise as to who is qualified to offer breathwork professionally, and just how is ethical practice monitored in this burgeoning and diverse field. As co-director of the Global Professional Breathwork Alliance since 2001, Jim Morningstar, PhD, has been intimately involved in this dialogue and its evolution to the present date. This session will examine the nature of a professional contract, major challenges that arise, and alternative solutions.

In this session, you’ll discover:

  • Ethics involves right relationships guided by agreed-upon principles, not a rulebook
  • We all have an internal moral compass and are responsible for maintaining it
  • We're now at a critical crossroads in determining the future of the professional field of breathwork 
The views expressed are specific to the author/speaker and may vary from the perspectives of The Shift Network's participants, staff, or other speakers.
