Amazonian/Tibetan Primordial Breathwork with Cacao Ceremony
Hosted by Roman Hanis
Wednesday, October 29th
5pm to 8pm
Sliding Scale $45 - $100
This workshop integrates to ancestral lineages of breath science: the Amazonian practice originating with the Yanomami tribe, and Tibetan teachings on the vital winds (lung), and subtle channels. Both lineages recognize breath as the primary regulator of life force, influencing physical health, emotional balance, and states of consciousness.
Primordial Breathwork trains the mind to rest in the heart, supporting the integration of life energies encoded in the cellular memory of the human organism. By combining continuous, intentional breathing, with sound, rhythm, and awareness, the practice helps to:
-Regulate the autonomic nervous system (shifting from fight-or-flight into rest-and-digest states.
-Release repressed emotions and psychosomatic tension stored in the body. Improve circulation, oxygenation, and vagal tone, supporting resilience and stress recovery.
-Activate and balance the bodies energy centers through the elemental archetypes of earth, water, fire, air, ether, space, and infinity.
-Support trauma resolution by engaging the bodies in a healing reflexes in a safe, contained way. While cathartic experiences can occur, the game is not dramatic release but a gradual cultivation of receptivity, coherence, and heart centered awareness. Its foundation in ancestral Amazonian and Tibetan lineages brings a focus on reciprocity, ecological consciousness, and integration into daily life.
Ceremonial Cacao. The session begins with an optional cacao invocation. Ceremonial cacao is going to increase blood flow to the brain way up to 30 to 40%, support heart coherence, and enhance emotional receptivity. Taken in moderation, it helps participants access deeper layers of presence during the breath work. Preparation:
-Do not eat for at least two hours before the session.
-please inform us if you are pregnant, taking pharmaceutical medication's, have a history of mental illness, a heart condition, or other concerns. (These questions will be included in the ink=take form).
Proceeds from this workshop go toward the nonprofit initiatives of the Paititi Institute (501c3), and the Yahua Ancestral School initiative in the Peruvian Amazon - supporting children and elders in preserving their culture and wisdom traditions.
This initiative, seeded through my book Beyond Ayahuasca (Hay House 2025), will extend the other tribes of the rainforest as part of a larger movement for indigenous empowerment and cultural continuity.
