About the 2026 Baltimore Breathwork Facilitator Training Cou

OVERVIEW

The 2026 Baltimore Breathwork and Sound Healing Facilitator Training Course offers a transformative journey for those seeking to guide others in the profound practices of breathwork and sound healing. Rooted in diverse traditions and anchored by the teachings of psychiatrist Viktor Frankl, this training integrates spiritual, psychological, and somatic healing modalities to provide a well-rounded foundation for aspiring facilitators.

WHAT IS BALTIMORE BREATHWORK?

Baltimore Breathwork is a powerful, active meditation technique where participants bypass the thinking mind into a transformative state of altered consciousness without the use of any substances. Sound healing uses crystal sound bowls, gongs, tuning forks, and chimes to realign the chakra system. Most participants leave a session feeling lighter, and more connected to their authentic selves.

A distinctive feature of this training is its foundational emphasis on the work and philosophy of Viktor Frankl. Drawing inspiration from his seminal text, Man’s Search for Meaning, participants will explore Frankl’s ideas on finding meaning amidst suffering, resilience in the face of loss, and the capacity for healing after trauma. Frankl’s journey, surviving four concentration camps and the loss of his entire family, shapes much of the training’s approach. His inspirational life and teachings form the backbone of the course’s intention: to empower facilitators to help others alleviate depression and rediscover purpose in their daily life.
