Medicine Music Immersion w/ Murray Kyle
& the Breathwave community
November 2nd — 8th, Lake Atitlán, Guatemala @ Casa Floresta
RETREAT DETAILS
What is the Medicine Music Immersion?
Breathwave’s Medicine Music Immersion is designed as an initiatory space for musicians and healing artists who are inspired to offer transformational music in ceremonial settings.
Rooted in Breathwave’s ceremonial approach to conscious connected breathing, this Immersion welcomes the embodiment of Breath as a way of inspiration and self-healing, where music flows as a natural extension of one’s harmonic state of being. We will learn to experience Music not as a performance, but as a unique expression of the Spirit that animates us.
We will come together for daily Breathwave journeys, songwriting workshops, communal jam sessions, ceremonial music education and production tutorials— all tailored to expand our capacity to:
Attune expression to the musical rhythms of reality
Nurture authentic voice and musical expression
Relate to our own nervous systems– even core wounds– as a muse
Inspire transformation through sacred songs and ancestral sound healing
Participate in music as a living, co-creative field of truth, goodness, and beauty
Who Is This For?
The Medicine Music Immersion is for those who feel called to explore the intersection of breath, music, and consciousness as a path of personal and collective transformation. This is an incubation space for ceremonialists, medicine song carriers, healing artists/practitioners, and musically-inclined humans to experience their own breath as a way of self-healing and guidance.
This Immersion is especially supportive for:
Breathwork practitioners seeking to deepen their relationship with sound and ceremonial spaces.
Musicians who feel called to move beyond performance into authentic service and creative collaboration
Facilitators, space holders, and retreat leaders seeking to develop their skills in ceremonial music
Humans who desire to reclaim their unique voice and expand their creative capacity
Together, we become instruments for the living animate life force, guided through the sound of unification with All Our Relations.
No formal musical training is required; only a willingness to participate, surrender old stories, and welcome a brave, new, expressive version of you into being.
While all levels of musicianship are welcome to join us, this Immersion has been specifically curated for those who have attained some degree of proficiency with a percussive or melodic instrument (including the voice and sound engineering) and approach music as a practice of connection and devotion in their lives.
“The role of the artist is exactly the same as the lover. If I love you, I have to make you conscious of the things you don’t see.”
Outcomes & Integration
By the completion of this retreat, participants will have cultivated:
