OUR MISSION:

BreathWorks practitioners offer our clients powerful holistic modalities in private treatments, classes, workshops, and retreats. We empower our clients to embrace creativity and playfulness, to boldly face their shadow sides and release trauma.

Our community events foster inclusivity and encourage growth physically, emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually. We offer donation-based or sliding scales to make them assessable to all.

There’s always room for more. If you’re a practitioner looking for a community, please reach out!

SLIDING SCALE

BreathWorks programming is for everybody regardless of their financial situation.

So for most of our programs, we offer three options rather than one fixed price. This structure makes it possible for more people to access the program, supported by the community and those who have access to more resources. Your enrollment also helps us to add more scholarships. Please choose the option that feels appropriate to you and your circumstances.

SPONSOR ACCESS: For those with more than enough financial resources and a desire to support access for others to help rebalance systemic inequity.

FAIR ACCESS: For those with sufficient financial resources and who can pay fair value for the experience.

SUPPORTED ACCESS: For those with currently limited financial resources who will benefit from access supplemented by the community.

If the cost of Supported Access is still a challenge, we gladly accept donations of time and energy to maintain BreathWorks.

MEET OUR FOUNDER

JULIE LANGFORD

PhD, RYT-200, LMT, MFR I, II, UW, Energy Codes Facilitator and Remote Healer

Julie specializes in releasing trapped emotions and alleviating trauma and PTSD. Her clients practice breath work and loving self-talk in order to amplify the effects of massage and myofascial release therapy.

Julie’s healing journey began at age 50 when she traveled to Rishikesh, India to study yoga, meditation, and breath work. At the time, she was a tenured professor at the University of South Florida and had a thriving career publishing, presenting at international conferences, and teaching a wide variety of classes. But she wasn’t healthy and she wasn’t happy.

India, yoga, yoga therapy, breath work and marma massage opened up her heart and her mind and gave her the tools she needed to heal herself. Plant medicine was also tremendously helpful in guiding her healing journey.

In gratitude for this newly discovered health, Julie founded BreathWorks in January 2022. She intended initially to teach self-care and trauma recovery through yoga, meditation, and breath work. The peace and joy she felt from witnessing people heal led her to retire from her tenured professor position in May 2022. By August of that year, she completed the requirements for her massage therapist license in Colorado and Florida.

In 2024, she studied with John F. Barnes to learn myofascial release which she uses in conjunction with techniques she learned in India and her own intuition. She also believes in the benefits of plant medicine, and received a certificate from Psilohealth to assist people as they undertake psliocybin trips to treat trauma and PTSD.

Some populations cannot afford or are not privy to the relief that these healing modalities offer. In an effort to teach our community about holistic modalities, BreathWorks offers donation-based and sliding scale events and classes. Julie is willing to barter for goods and services so that anyone needs these healing modalities can have access to them. She is convinced that doing so will make the world a kinder, more compassionate place to be.

And that’s good for everyone.
