How does Adrienne Rivera ensure safety in her breathwork sessions?

Adrienne ensures safety in breathwork by keeping her work trauma-informed and empowering each breather to stay in charge of their own experience.

In upregulated styles (like circular connected breath), Adrienne invites people to “go inwards” and constantly adjust the depth and intensity of their breath based on what their body is telling them. This helps the nervous system stay regulated and creates more safety in the body to feel and connect with emotions.

She also emphasizes building safety within one’s own body as a core outcome of breathwork, not pushing or forcing a particular reaction, which is key for emotional and nervous system health.

Is there a specific concern you have about safety (trauma history, anxiety, medical, etc.) that you want to make sure is addressed?
