Answer the Call
to Hold Sacred Space
This is more than a certification; it is a rite of passage. The Lumina Guide Training is a profound, 120-hour journey designed for those who feel a non-negotiable pull to guide others through the transformative landscape of the breath.
We believe that the most powerful facilitators are those who have done their own work. This path is a deep dive into your own inner alchemy, preparing you to become a clear channel and a grounded, loving presence for those you are here to serve. You will emerge not just with a certificate, but as an embodied guide, confident in your ability to hold safe, potent, and life-changing space.
More Than Techniques
A Path of Embodiment
While you will master a wide range of breathwork modalities, the Lumina difference lies in our core philosophy:
The Vessel, Not the Victor: We cultivate the inner stillness required to let the ego step aside, allowing the breath—the true healer—to lead the process.
Heart-Led & Trauma-Informed: Every module is infused with principles of somatic safety, nervous system regulation, and compassionate space-holding.
A Unique Fusion: We honour the ancient roots of yogic pranayama while integrating the clarity of modern breath science and functional techniques.
Your Unique Magic: This training provides a supportive structure, but we actively encourage you to weave your own unique gifts and intuition into your sessions.
“When breath wanders, the mind is unsteady. When breath is still, the mind is still.”
– Patanjali (Yoga Sutras)
