Why this circle exists

Breath as medicine,
held by facilitators.

Breathwork is one of the most direct doorways back into the body — a way to move what words cannot reach, and to touch the same intelligence the medicine opens, without leaving ordinary consciousness.

This open circle is held by facilitators who also sit with ayahuasca. That matters: the material that surfaces here often carries the fingerprints of ceremony, and it deserves to be met by people who know that terrain.

Breathwork as integration practice

The Ayahuasca Integration Breathwork Circle is a free bi-weekly gathering where we use conscious connected breathing as an integration tool — not a substitute for ceremony, but a companion to it. The circle is open to anyone: current practitioners, people still deciding whether ayahuasca is for them, and those who simply want to work with the breath as a standalone practice.

Breathwork gives you access to some of the same territory ceremony opens — body memory, emotional release, altered states — with a very different risk profile and much shorter integration window. For many people it's the most useful daily-life practice between ceremonies.

What breathwork does for integration

In the months after ceremony, insight often gets stored in the body faster than it becomes available to language. Breathwork is one of the reliable ways to keep that body-level material moving — releasing what wants to release, and giving you access to layers that talk-based integration can't reach on its own.

It's also the closest most people can safely come to the felt sense of ceremony between sits, which matters for practitioners who want to stay in relationship with the medicine's teaching without leaning on more medicine. The circle is deliberately designed with that between-ceremony use in mind.

Who it's for

Anyone can attend. No experience with breathwork or ceremony is required. If you're new to conscious connected breathing, the facilitator walks the whole room through the practice each time before we begin.

If you have a heart condition, a history of seizures, uncontrolled asthma, or you're pregnant, please check with your medical provider before joining — the facilitator can also talk it through with you privately before the session if that would help.

What a session looks like

Sessions run for about ninety minutes. We open with a short grounding and orientation, spend roughly forty-five minutes in the breath, and close with integration time — often journaling, often silence, sometimes a brief sharing round if the room wants it. Music is chosen to support the arc of the practice, not to override it.

Everything you need — the Zoom link, prep notes, and the calendar invite — is inside the circle room once you sign up.

About the Alliance

How the Ayahuasca Integration Alliance thinks about this work

The Alliance is a member-led community of facilitators, integration coaches, therapists, and long-time practitioners built around one plain idea: the ceremony is not the work. The work is what you do with the ceremony afterwards — over the weeks, months, and years in which insight either becomes a lived life or slowly evaporates. Everything we publish, every circle we hold, and every training we run is designed with that continuity in mind.

We started the Alliance because too much of the public conversation about ayahuasca stops at the door of the maloka. There are thousands of accounts of what happens inside ceremony and very little honest, sustained writing about what happens in the weeks after — the difficult passages, the ordinary aftermath, the way old patterns reassert themselves and how the people we know who actually change stay close to the material until it holds.

That's the gap this whole site tries to fill: a living map of the integration journey written by people who have walked it, reviewed by peers with clinical and lived experience, and organized so you can find the exact answer to the exact question you're carrying at whatever stage of the path you're currently on.

What integration actually looks like in practice

For most people, integration is unglamorous. It's a short morning practice — sitting, breathing, journaling — repeated on days you don't feel like it. It's one honest conversation a week with a person who can hear you without needing to fix you. It's noticing a body sensation before it becomes a mood, a mood before it becomes a story, a story before it becomes an action you'll regret. It's slow, and it's ordinary, and it works.

The people we see integrate ceremony most deeply are almost never the ones who had the most spectacular visions. They are the ones who stayed in relationship with the material during the ninety-day window when neuroplasticity is still open and old patterns haven't yet fully reasserted themselves — usually inside a community, usually with at least one trained third party, usually with practices small enough that a bad week doesn't derail them.

Everything we build — the circles, the guide, the Q&A library, the podcast, the professional directory — is designed to give you that combination of community, structure, and practice without gatekeeping or hype. You can use as much or as little of it as fits the life you're actually living.

How to use the rest of this site

If you're new here, the Integration Guide is the natural entry point. It's organized by the five stages we see most often — curious, preparing, in ceremony, integrating, and long-term practice — and each stage links out to the topic hubs, articles, Q&A answers, and podcast episodes that engage with the questions people usually bring us at that moment.

If you already know what you're looking for, the topic library and the Q&A living index are the fastest way in. Both are cross-linked to the journey stages, so you can follow a single theme — mental health, trauma, difficult experiences, relationships, ethics — sideways across every part of the map. And if you'd rather sit in a room with other people who understand the terrain, the Integration Circles page collects every recurring gathering we host, most of them free and drop-in.

For structured one-on-one support, our directory of vetted integration specialists is a good next step. For ongoing membership in the community — including access to members-only resources, private circles, and direct conversation with facilitators — the Alliance itself is where that lives. Whatever you use, please treat what you read here as context and framing, not as a substitute for personal support.
