Within the subtle breath lives a quiet potential—an invitation into stillness and deeper presence. These guided meditations offer a gentle doorway into the living stillness of the breath.

When Practice Turns Inward

For many experienced practitioners of yoga, there comes a moment when practice begins to turn inward.
The emphasis shifts from refinement of form to refinement of awareness. From doing, to listening.

Barratt Breathwork® meets practitioners at this threshold.
Rather than directing the breath, we attune to its subtler movements — gently responding to its inner currents, allowing prana to come into coherence, the nervous system to soften, and meditative depth to arise naturally.

There is a breath that does not strive. It moves quietly, revealing an inner rhythm that guides awareness toward stillness rather than effort. Rooted in the inner practices of yoga, this work speaks to those who sense that the next stage of practice is not more technique, but greater subtlety.

Within this quiet refinement, the breath becomes more than a function of the body — it becomes a living thread of Divine remembrance.

If your path is leading you toward this quieter ground, you may already be sensing the doorway this work opens.

"The process of breathing, if fully understood and experienced in its profound significance,
could teach us more than all the philosophies of the world."

 Barratt Breath Institute Programs

At the Barratt Breath Institute, our programs open a gentle pathway into the breath as a living contemplative practice. Designed for those drawn to the deeper dimensions of practice, whether for personal renewal or the call to guide others, each offering supports a deepening into stillness, subtle awareness, and embodied presence.

From introductory experiences to professional trainings, the journey unfolds as a gradual deepening — inviting practitioners to meet the breath not as a technique, but as a teacher.

A threshold into subtle anatomy and meditative depth

This level deepens energetic perception, practitioner discernment, and the capacity to guide subtler breath states. Facilitation evolves from structured guidance into attuned listening, as practitioners learn to sense the subtler movements of breath, prana, and awareness. Through this deepening, the work becomes less about directing and more about embodied presence—preparing those called forward for deeper apprenticeship within the Barratt Breathwork® lineage

Step Into Apprenticeship

Where Divine Remembrance Stirs

  • A Return to the Innate Breath
    As effort softens, the natural breath emerges—gentle, intelligent, quietly guiding awareness inward.

  • The Unfolding of the Inner Landscape 
    With the breath as guide, attention turns toward the subtle meeting place of body, sensation, and awareness, where deeper rhythms begin to reveal themselves.

  • The Deepening of Stillness
    As the breath grows calm, the mind follows, and a spacious quiet opens beneath the movement of thought.

  • The Emergence of Inner Knowing
    In this stillness, guidance arises—not from striving, but from the subtle current of inner listening.

  • A Felt Sense of the Sacred
    Through the gentle refinement of breath and awareness, the ground of being reveals itself—subtle, luminous, and quietly alive.
