BREATHWORK
From Inherited Survival to Embodied Freedom
A global, live, nervous-system-led journey for women
Now held on Saturday mornings (PST)
So women everywhere can finally say yes.

with Sand Symes
NEW TIME · SAME DEPTH · WIDER ACCESS
For the first time, Ancestral Breathwork Journeys are being held on Saturday mornings (Pacific Time).
Previously offered in the evening, these journeys now open the door for women across time zones —
Europe, Africa, the UK, the Middle East, and beyond...to gather live, together.
This shift is intentional.
It’s about inclusion, accessibility, and honoring women’s real lives.
No rushing after work.
No choosing between rest and ritual.
Just presence.
WHY THIS EXISTS
ANCESTRAL BREATHWORK JOURNEYS (ABJ)
Sand Symes is unwavering in her commitment to transformation that is ethical, accessible, and embodied.
Guided by a simple ancestral directive,
No Woman Left Behind.
These monthly Ancestral Breathwork Journeys are offered freely to women around the world.
Each live, online session is a 2-hour, carefully held container designed to help you:
-
Release inherited patterns held in the nervous system
-
Access deeper intuition and embodied knowing
-
Soften survival strategies that no longer serve
-
Reconnect to the wisdom, resilience, and guidance of your lineage
This is not performative healing.
It’s not bypassing.
It’s slow, powerful, body-based remembering.
You don’t need prior experience.
You don’t need to be “ready.”
You just need to arrive.

A powerful community integration space follows each journey
Come as you are, lying down, seated, resting
This is a space of care, consent, and grounded leadership.
01
THE SCIENCE
Breathwork uses conscious, rhythmic breathing to shift the nervous system out of chronic fight-or-flight and into states of regulation, coherence, and openness.
From this state, the body has greater access to memory, insight, and non-verbal intelligence, the kind of knowing that cannot be reached through thinking alone.
This is where real change happens.
02
THE ANCESTORS
Our ancestors are not abstract ideas.
They are encoded in our nervous systems, behaviors, beliefs, and relational patterns.
Through breath and presence, we can access both:
-
Lineage members who have passed
-
Ancient ancestral energies carrying resilience, wisdom, and protection
They support us in releasing inherited trauma and reclaiming inherited strength.
This work is about remembering who you come from,
and choosing what continues through you.
03
THE RHYTHM
The body has an innate capacity to expand, reorganize, and access deeper vision when safety, rhythm, and presence are restored.
It moves in rhythms older than thought,
cycles of activation and rest, opening and integration, expression and renewal.
These rhythms are ancient.
They live in a woman’s nervous system, her breath, her cells.
They are not something to be learned.
They are something to be remembered.
By working directly with the breath and nervous system, we access layers of wisdom that exist beneath thought, story, and analysis. From this place, intuition sharpens, perception widens, and ancestral knowing becomes available as felt experience.
Nothing is forced.
Nothing is rushed.
What arises does so because the body has the capacity to hold it.
What shifts does so without collapse or overwhelm.
This is where a woman’s true power lives...
not in fixing what’s broken, but in trusting the ancient intelligence that already knows how to lead her forward.
TESTIMONIAL
I love the breathwork journeys so much! I am amazed by how powerful they are. Having done meditation, body work, and yoga for decades and some medicine work in the past couple of years, I am really impressed. I admire your gifts in holding space, knowing what to say and how to show up for the group, and seeing energy and spirits, not to mention your incredible playlists.
