Kate Becker, Therapeutic Breathwork trainer, presents the impact of how absorbing early disapproval in our lives affects lifelong patterns of self judgement and seeing others judgmentally.

Kate leads exercises in discovering the patterns you carry and project onto others as well as ways to release them.

Jim Morningstar, Director of the Therapeutic Breathwork Training program, role plays an example of how childhood excitement can generate parental fears and disapproval.
