What is Nostalgic Breathwork?
Breathwork is the intentional use of breathing techniques to help bring awareness to the body, quieten mental noise and support a shift into a calmer, more connected state.
Nostalgic Breathwork combines guided breathing with immersive headphones and familiar songs that may remind you of different people, places and chapters of your life.
During the experience, I will guide you through a carefully structured breathing journey. The music, breath and supportive environment work together to encourage reflection, relaxation and emotional connection.
Alongside our signature breathwork sessions, we run small-group yoga and wellness events both in-person and online.
Meet your Facilitator
I’m Shanai, the founder of The Nostalgic Breathwork Experience and Recover & Revive, my wellness clinic in Cheltenham.
My background spans movement, recovery and wellbeing. After several years in the military, I completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training and continued developing my knowledge through sports therapy, women’s health, dry needling and medical acupuncture. I am also currently completing my Master’s degree in Chiropractic.
Throughout my work, I have become increasingly fascinated by the nervous system and the way our bodies hold stress, emotion and experience. I wanted to create something that allowed people to step away from everyday life, slow down and reconnect with themselves without it feeling clinical or intimidating.
The Nostalgic Breathwork Experience brings together guided breathing, immersive headphone audio and familiar piano music to create a journey through breath, memory and emotion. Nostalgic music has an incredible ability to transport us back to particular people, places and chapters of our lives, and combining this with intentional breathing creates an experience that feels deeply personal.
My aim is not to tell you what you should feel, but to create a calm, supportive space where you can breathe, reflect and experience whatever naturally arises.
You do not need any previous breathwork or meditation experience. You simply need to arrive exactly as you are.
