Breathe to be happy

Breathe to be healthy

BeHarpy offers therapeutic workshops that combine breathing techniques, harmonica playing and overtone singing.

Open to everybody, there's no need to have any musical skills!

CONSCIOUS BREATHING WORKSHOPS

Gaining consciousness of your breathing helps you keep your mind in the present and allows you to develop your own resources in order to deal with stress, anxiety and all kind of physical and emotional issues.

The harmonica, being a great amplifier of your breath, is the perfect tool to explore your diaphragm and to improve the capacity and control of your breathing.

The workshops involve personal inner work, but they are also about connecting with others and about creating group cohesion. Different workshops can be arranged depending on the time available and on the number of participants.

These workshops are not about learning how to play the harmonica, but about how playing harmonica can help you connect deeper with your breathing. 

BeHarpy provides harmonicas for the workshops.

BASIC WORKSHOP (2-3 hours)

We explore our diaphragm, our spontaneous breathing and our voluntary breathing as a barometer of our emotions and our mood. We reconnect with our natural breathing as a source of pleasure and well-being. We present tools so we can project our voice with more confidence, both when singing and when speaking in public. We do exercises so that participants can connect with each other through breathing. We provide guidelines to reach altered states of consciousness through continuous breathing techniques to deal with traumas and to live transformative experiences.

OVERTONE SINGING WORKSHOPS

Overtone singing allows you to produce two notes at the same time, like a flute on top of you singing voice. This technique brings you to deep states of consciousness, relaxation and inner peace. 

BASIC WORKSHOP (2-3 hours)

We learn the basic overtone singing techniques, explore our hearing and dig into the possibilities of our voice. We present the relationship between vowels, chakras and emotions as a tool for self-knowledge and healing.

MOUTH HARP WORKSHOP (2 hours)

Can you learn how to play a musical instrument in just 2 hours? The Vietnamese mouth harp is a very intuitive instrument that combines breathing, rhythmic patterns and subtle movements with your tongue and mouth. We play with rhythm and learn the basic techniques of the instrument doing very entertaining exercises.

BeHarpy provides mouth harps for the workshop.

Price and participants to be arranged.

HARMONICA FOR BEGINNERS WORKSHOP (2 hours)

The blues harp is one of the most intuitive instruments in the world. We teach the basic techniques to get you started in the best-selling musical instrument ever. The smart layout of the harmonica allows you to play from the very start, no musical knowledge needed, it’s just about adding rhythm and melody. The breathing work required also makes it a very therapeutic instrument. A friend of mine says it’s is the smallest gym on earth!

BeHarpy provides harmonicas for the workshops.

Price and participants to be arranged.

CIRCULAR BREATHING WORKSHOP (2 hours)

We teach the basics in order to get you started with circular breathing. Circular breathing allows you to play an endless note in any wind instrument, including the harmonica, in blow notes and in draw notes as well. It takes an enormous control of your diaphragm in order to inhale or to release air at the same time in a fast way, as well as a lot of coordination. Learning and exploring new breathing techniques improves your overall breathing and makes you more aware of the different parts of your body that are involved in the process.

Price and participants to be arranged.
