Before I was twenty, I had found my way to conscious breathing, and I have spent the more than fifty years since following where it leads — through boardrooms and classrooms, hospital beds and mountaintops, and the hardest hours of people's lives.
What I have learned is simple: the breath meets you exactly where you are. It asks for no belief, no background, no readiness. One honest hour of breathing can open what years of trying could not.
That is why our door is open every week, for free, to anyone. Come and breathe with us once. Everything else can wait until after that first breath.
If meditation is about clearing your mind, then breathwork is about freeing your ability to feel.Anthony Abbagnano · Founder, Alchemy of Breath

Let’s have a conversation →Talk with an Alchemy of Breath graduate about which program or ASHA retreat fits where you are.
It creates the space for deep insight, connection, and transformation in a safe and loving container. I deeply recommend Alchemy of Breath as an incredible experience to harness the power of true presence.
An hour later, I knew this had just turned my life around. I feel like my heart has opened up again for the first time in decades, and the training group has become a new little community for all of us.
Breathwork continues to open doors, and the training allows me to fully investigate and be supported in my experiences. I feel like I am growing and opening toward life's untapped potential.
Alchemy of Breath is accredited by the Federation of Holistic Therapists, the Global Professional Breathwork Alliance, and the American Association of Drugless Practitioners — recognized as one of the most thoroughly certified breathwork institutions in the world.
Breathwork is the conscious use of your breathing to shift how you feel, think, and heal. At Alchemy of Breath we practice Conscious Connected Breathwork, where inhalation and exhalation flow seamlessly without pauses, calming the nervous system and creating space for deep emotional release.
Studies have shown breathwork can help reduce symptoms associated with stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia, and PTSD. Beyond the biological effects, practitioners report greater self-awareness, emotional freedom, and a deeper sense of connection and peace. Breathwork is not a substitute for medical or psychological treatment.
Start by breathing with us. We host free live online breathwork sessions every Sunday, open to everyone. They are the gentlest way to experience the work first-hand before choosing a program.
No. Our trainings are designed for all levels, from complete newcomers to experienced practitioners, and meet you exactly where you are. Many students join purely for their own growth and healing.
The Alchemy Regulation Method is our nervous system regulation methodology. You graduate with a daily practice and a framework to regulate your own nervous system, and can qualify to practice as a nervous system regulation coach.
Through the Alchemy of Breath Facilitator Training, a triple accredited certification you can walk two ways: the 8 month online training with weekly live calls, or the 4 month accelerated path that begins with 21 days live at ASHA in Tuscany.
Join a free live breathwork session this Sunday. No experience, no belief, no obligation — just an hour with your breath, guided by people who have given their lives to it.
