A Reference for anyone interested in Breathwork

Manne makes the link between the transformational process of the Shaman and modern Breathwork. The book exhibits a thoroughness that can only come from personal practice as well as professional work clients. I recommend it as a standard text for Breathwork trainings as well as for any interested member of the general public. The style is readable, coherent and compelling

Good Breathwork Primer.

I, as a few of the other reviewers, found the title to be a bit misleading. When the word Shamanic was used, I figured I would be reading a bit more 'weirder' breathwork stuff than I ended up reading. Overall though, the book is an excellent introductory on the different types of breathwork that one can participate in. It also talks about her theories and techniques, which a practicing breathworker can also adopt as their own. I would recommend this book to anyone that is curious about breathwork. If you are looking for more of a text-book, then there are better ones out there.

good read even though misleading title..

This is a very good book on breathwork. People who have an interest on breathwork focusing on holotropic breathwork and rebirthing will find it informative and easy to read. Her personal style and method of breathwork is called The Consious Breathing Method. Shamanic Breathwork is a style of breathwork that has been trademarked by Author and Breathwork Facilitator Linda StarWolf who runs Venus Rising Institute For the Shamanic Healing Arts.
