Breathwork, Fascia and MELT Magic workshop
Saturday May 11, 1-3 pm
with Annabel Scott, owner of Pilates Manitoba and Shannon Frame, Breath Worker
What is breathwork?
This transformational breathing meditation, which is an active 3 part breathing meditation, allows your body to be flushed with oxygen. It gives you the ability to quiet the thinking mind and move into the body. It enables you to potentially move into an aled state of mind where you can clear stuck energy (emotional, physical, mental and spiritual), calm your nervous system by reducing stress and anxiety, improve clarity and focus, release toxins, boost immunity, and start letting go of what you may be holding on to, creating space for personal transformation and growth.
Benefits of Breathwork:
- Reset the nervous system
- Assistance to help you release and let go (stuck energy holding you back)
- Reduced stress and anxiety (from the source – not on the surface level)
- Increased connection with your intuition and heart
- Stronger sense of purpose and self-worth
- Increased energy and motivation
- More focus and clarity = more efficient and productive
- Increased sense of feeling calm, grounded and at peace
- Improved sleep
- Stronger immunity by releasing toxins
- More happiness and joy- so you can show up for yourself and others in your life

What is the MELT Method?
M.E.L.T is an acronym for myofascial energetic length technique, to allow people to become their own bodyworkers and eliminate their own pain. MELT gently rehydrates connective tissue, rebalances the nervous system, promotes healing, reduces inflammation, decompresses the neck and low back, improves core stability, mobilizes joints, stimulates organ function, increases flexibility, and much more. MELT significantly enhances flexibility, strength, balance, and stability. The focus and intention of MELT is on rehydrating connective tissue rather than stretching muscle. It advances conscious awareness, breathing, symmetrical posture with happy joints and feels great.
