Rebirthing Breathwork in Hong Kong

Rebirthing Breathwork is one of the oldest forms of conscious breathing practice, developed by Leonard Orr in the 1970s. Using circular connected breath (no pause between inhale and exhale), sessions create an altered state in which deeply held body patterns, including what was imprinted at birth, can surface and release. Faith Lantz offers Rebirthing Breathwork in Central, Hong Kong, integrated with her craniosacral therapy and somatic practice.

At a Glance

Rebirthing uses circular breathing to access and release patterns held in the body, sometimes since before you had words for them.

  • Developed by Leonard Orr in the early 1970s in California
  • Works through circular breathing, with no pause between inhale and exhale
  • Can access pre-verbal, body-stored patterns including birth imprints
  • Sessions are 60–90 minutes; Faith integrates this with CST and SE work

What it is

A direct route into what thinking can't reach.

Rebirthing Breathwork uses circular connected breathing: inhaling and exhaling continuously with no pause between them. The rhythm, held for 45 to 60 minutes with a practitioner present, creates physiological conditions in which deeply held body patterns can surface and release. Patterns that predate language, including what was imprinted at birth.

Developed by Leonard Orr in the 1970s and related to Holotropic Breathwork and other circular breathing traditions, Rebirthing works at a level that talking alone can't reach. The body's oldest memories are stored as sensation, not story. Breath can meet them there.

Faith integrates Rebirthing into her practice alongside craniosacral therapy and SE-informed work. A breathwork session can open patterns that the body then integrates through touch in subsequent sessions. The modalities are complementary: breathwork reaches what touch can consolidate.

You don't need to believe anything for the body to respond to circular breathing. The physiological shift happens; what surfaces, surfaces.

What it can help with

Breathwork reaches what talking often doesn't. These are the areas where people most commonly find it moves something that has been stuck.

Birth imprints and early patterns
Patterns laid down before memory, in the birth process or the earliest months. Rebirthing was developed specifically to access this layer.
Pre-verbal body-stored patterns
When something is held in the body that has not found its way to words. Breathwork works directly at that level.
Chronic stress and nervous system dysregulation
A body that can't fully relax. Circular breathing directly addresses autonomic state.
A nervous system that won't settle
The breath is the fastest route to the nervous system. What has been activated can settle, through the breath, not around it.
Grief held without release
Grief that has been managed and pushed through. Breathwork creates conditions for what has been waiting to move to finally move.
Living at partial capacity
The sense of a ceiling, of not fully arriving in your own life. Often, the body is holding something that keeps part of you offline.
Deep curiosity and spiritual emergence
For people drawn to exploring what the body holds, what altered states can reveal, or who are in a significant life transition.
Integration after other work
Following CST, SE, or psychotherapy, breathwork can open the next layer, or help consolidate what previous work has loosened.
