Event Description:

As event planners and hospitality professionals, we are often tasked with creating seamless, unforgettable experiences, while navigating the stress and high demands of our roles. But what about our own well-being? The constant pressure of ensuring everything runs smoothly can leave us feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and burnt out—leaving little room to recharge.

That’s where somatic breathwork and nervous system regulation come in. Join us for a transformative session led by Sepideh Eivazi, founder of Dawn of the Earth, and a member of the Global Wellness Institute’s Breathe Initiative. Sepideh will guide you through the powerful practice of breathwork, helping you shift from a sympathetic (fight-or-flight) state to a parasympathetic (rest-and-heal) state.

In this session, you’ll learn how to release tension, quiet your mind, and ground yourself amidst the chaos of the event world. Through intentional breathing techniques, we’ll work to release trapped emotions, ease anxiety, and promote a deep sense of calm and clarity. Whether you’re in need of stress relief, a grounding reset, or a new tool to better handle the demands of the industry, this session is designed to give you exactly that.

Attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of the nervous system, tools to manage stress and anxiety, and practical ways to integrate somatic breathwork into their daily routines—creating more balance and resilience in both personal and professional life.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to reset and reconnect with yourself, so you can show up as your best, most centered self for your clients and events.

Key Takeaways:

• Understand how your nervous system responds to stress and how to regulate it
• Learn somatic breathwork techniques to release stress and anxiety
• Discover ways to feel grounded and present, even in high-pressure environments
• Gain tools to manage burnout and shift from survival mode to thriving
