BREATHWork

Breathwork has many influences such us pranayama, yoga, meditation, tai chi and other ancient techniques. It became popular in the 60s with Leonard Orr and his rebirthing theory, where he emphasise the importance and use of the breath to heal traumas, including birth trauma. There are different types of breathwork, some use nose others mouth breathing, also the use of music and the length of the session, but ultimately the main goal is to unblock and release traumas stored in our minds and bodies through breathing.By doing conscious connected breathing, we use our parasympathetic nervous system, which means we are in a calm and relax state, so we can surrender and allow our body, mind and spirit to integrate and have access to our subconscious and bring to light our fears, self-doubts, traumas and anything that is stopping us from fulfilling our goals in life.What to expect in a session:The most important part of a session is that you work on anything that you feel is not making you happy or stops you from reaching you own potential.Normally a breathwork session lasts 90 minutes, over this time you will be introduced to what breathwork is, its benefits and contraindications, and the type of breathing that you will be doing.After that we will be doing a grounding exercise where you can relax any tension before the breathing, then we will work on your intentions, on what you would like to achieve in the session and you will also work on your positive affirmations, they can be your mantras during the session.Once you are ready and in a comfortable position you will start the conscious connected breathing, this will last for about 45 minutes, during this time, there will be music that will help you to get into your subconscious, and I will be there all the time, encouraging you to breathe and to give you any support.Finally there will be a time for integration, journaling and sharing (If that’s what you want).Some of the benefits are:Connect body, mind and spiritRelease traumasClear physical, emotional and mental blockagesIncrease overall wellbeing and positivityExperience new energy and a sense of blissDetoxify your mind and bodyReduce the muscle tension and anxiety present with stress-related symptoms and thoughtsBoost attention span and sharpen focusReduce the perception od chronic pain or help cope with physical discomfortOpen you to a rush of creativity while quieting your inner criticCalm your nervous sysyem, stave off insomnia, and prepare your body for restStrengthen the immune system by boosting antibodies and potentially reducing inflammationHelps to overcome drug/alcohol addictionHelps you to connect with people and other living things

Men's Retreat

The pressures and expectations placed on men to conform to traditional notions of masculinity often lead to emotional suppression, isolation, and to higher rates of depression and suicide.
Creating a space where men can openly discuss their emotions, vulnerabilities, and challenges without fear of judgment is crucial. Breaking down these stereotypes and encouraging authenticity allows for genuine connection and healing. When men feel supported and empowered to embrace their emotions and true selves, it positively impacts mental health and overall well-being.
Promoting transparency, authenticity, and mutual support among men is an essential step toward fostering a healthier and more inclusive understanding of masculinity. Providing tools, discussions, and activities that encourage emotional expression and self-discovery can profoundly impact the lives of men and contribute to breaking down societal barriers that limit men's emotional growth and expression.
Objectives:
1. Community Building: Foster a supportive and inclusive community where men feel safe to express vulnerabilities, share experiences, and connect with one another without fear of judgment.
2. Creating Safe Spaces: Establish environments—through retreats, forums, and alliances—that encourage open dialogue, where men can break free from societal expectations and norms, and express their emotions authentically.
3. Overcoming Limiting Beliefs, Addictions, and Fears: Provide resources, discussions, and support systems to help men challenge and overcome societal pressures, limiting beliefs, addictive behaviours, and fears that hinder personal growth and well-being.
4. Expansion and Collaboration: Extend the reach of the project by partnering with forums, organizations, artists, holistic practitioners, and institutions to create a broader network of support, incorporating diverse perspectives and resources.
5. Holistic Approach: Integrate various holistic therapies and practices—such as breathwork, ice immersion, ceremonies, art therapy, mindfulness, meditation, and alternative healing modalities—to offer a comprehensive toolkit for personal growth and healing.
By aiming to build a strong community, create safe spaces, and provide diverse resources and support systems, this project seeks to address the multifaceted needs of men, promoting emotional well-being, personal development, and a redefinition of masculinity that embraces authenticity and vulnerability
Who is this for?
This project's inclusivity is commendable. By being open to men from all backgrounds, religions, and belief systems, we're creating a space that welcomes anyone seeking personal growth, emotional expression, and transformation.
It's for men who might have felt constrained by societal expectations, who desire to break free from the limitations placed upon them, and who recognize the need for change in their lives. It's for those who want to explore and embrace their authentic selves and who are ready to embark on a journey toward inner freedom and personal empowerment.
By emphasizing the universality of these struggles and aspirations, this project ensures that men from diverse backgrounds and experiences can find a supportive and accepting environment to embark on their journey of self-discovery and healing.
Activities
The combination of the healing techniques that we will be practicing like breathwork, the Wim Hof method, grounding exercises, somatic practices, and meditation, along with activities like hiking and sharing, creates a well-rounded and immersive journey toward self-discovery and healing.
Living in community for two nights, dedicating time to listen, talk, share, and support each other can foster deep connections and create a safe space for personal growth. The emphasis on expression, both in terms of sharing experiences and allowing transformation to unfold, speaks to the openness and vulnerability that can lead to profound changes.
Real transformation can happen when we open ourselves up to it. Allowing for that transformation within a supportive and nurturing environment, where individuals can explore various healing modalities and connect with nature and each other can facilitate incredible personal shifts and growth.
The combination of these practices encourages individuals to explore their inner selves, release what no longer serves them, and embrace new possibilities for healing and personal development.
This retreat is designed to facilitate a holistic and transformative experience for everyone involved through the following practices:
1. Breathwork (Conscience Connected Breathing)
• Breathwork to release emotional blockages.
• Bodywork to connect with our bodies
2. Mindfulness and Meditation Sessions:

• Team-building activities such as walks on nature.
6. Personal Development Workshops:

7. Creativity and Expression Workshops:

About

About David FabrizioI am David Fabrizio, a certified Wim Hof Method Instructor (Level 1), Breathwork Facilitator, Coach, and Practitioner of Bodywork, Trauma-Informed Practices, and Cacao Ceremonies. Originally from Ecuador, I grew up between the Galápagos Islands and the Andes Mountains, where I developed a deep connection to nature and holistic healing. Today, I live in Málaga, Spain, managing Cortijo El Cachete, a retreat center dedicated to personal transformation and well-being.My journey into breathwork, coaching, and personal growth began during a retreat at my center. That first session was life-changing—I immediately knew this was something powerful that needed to be shared. Breathwork became a key tool in my own transformation, helping me overcome addictions and break free from limiting patterns. Through this process, I’ve gained a deep understanding of resilience, healing, and self-mastery, and I now guide others in doing the same.I practice the Wim Hof Method daily, believing that true healing and transformation come from within. By integrating breathwork, cold exposure, mindset training, and consistency, we can all reclaim our strength, overcome obstacles, and step into our full potential. My mission is to help others break free from addictions, release emotional blockages, and build a life of clarity, purpose, and empowerment.
