Breath work training is an amazing healing modality that offers its participants a chance to see beyond toxic patterns that keep them stuck in the same place for years. It can also help them access personal perspective and psychological insight to make positive changes in their lives that can impact how they feel about themselves and others.

It’s no wonder that breathwork is becoming increasingly popular around the world as a way to de-escalate, de-stress and reduce anxiety. In fact, it’s one of the most accessible wellness practices there is, since anyone can do it and can experience its benefits without a practitioner present. The most common form of breathwork is called diaphragmatic breathing, which involves breathing from the lower abdomen instead of the chest and engages a large muscle at the base of the lungs known as the diaphragm. This type of breathing activates the parasympathetic nervous system to reduce blood pressure, heart rate and stress hormones, which in turn promotes a sense of calmness and wellbeing.

In more advanced forms of breathwork, like holotropic breathing, the practice can be used to create altered states that facilitate the process of re-integrating and releasing trauma at all levels of the psyche. These states, developed by Grof, are based on his theory of transpersonal cartography that connects the psyche to perinatal memories in the womb and birthing experiences, as well as a variety of spiritual traditions around the world. These connections can trigger a powerful healing experience that’s akin to psychospiritual death and rebirth, which can help individuals move through life with more clarity and a greater sense of purpose and connection.

Artwork requirements for felt patches

When choosing artwork for your custom felt patch, the most important consideration is to ensure that your design will be visible on the patch’s final product. It is also necessary to create a contiguous patch, with all the pieces of your design connecting. This is a simple step that can be achieved by adding a background color to your artwork file, or simply stroking the exterior of your patch with the border you would like to see on your finished patch.

You can also customize the size of your patch, which is a great choice for creating unique logos and designs. We offer a wide variety of patch sizes, including circle, square, rectangle, and badge-style patches. Depending on the patch size you choose, we may recommend changing your artwork to fit the new size or altering its shape to better match the shape of the patch.

You can also select the type of backing you’d like to use to secure your patch. There are 10 different backing options, and each one is tailored to a specific use case. Choose an iron-on backing that attaches to a variety of fabrics when ironed, a velcro hook backing sewn on the patch, or a thin plastic backing that adds structure to your patch.
