Pranayama Practice: Breathe Like A Yogi At 3rd Eye with Cole J.

Breath is one of our most fundamental needs. Connecting with our breath connects us directly with the source of life. “Pranayama” is the practice of relating with life force through your breath and it is one of the eight limbs of Ashtanga yoga.

This breathwork class is grounded in the teachings of yoga. We will explore various breathing exercises that will open up our airways and nourish our bodies for the rest of the day. You will learn techniques that you can use to deepen your daily practice.

“When the breath is disturbed, the mind is disturbed. When the breath is undisturbed, the mind is undisturbed and the yogi reaches a stable state. Therefore, one should practice with the breath.”
— Patanjali, The Yoga Sutras

 

Preparing for class:

*Please plan to arrive 15 minutes early to allow time for parking, checking in, and setting up your mat. Classes take place in the Alma room located in the front courtyard of Casa de Luz.

*While we do have a limited number of mats available, we may not have enough for every student in larger classes. To ensure everyone is covered, we kindly ask that you bring your own mat if you have one. This way, those who truly need to borrow one can do so. With your help, we can continue to support one another and make our shared space comfortable and accessible for all.

We also invite you to bring any personal items (blanket, eye mask, pillow, etc.) that will help you to feel extra comfortable during class.

*Some of our classes may include optional physical touch, such as gentle adjustments or supportive contact, to help guide you in your practice. Your instructor will always announce this at the beginning of class.

If you prefer not to receive any physical touch, please feel free to let the instructor know before class begins. We fully support your choice and want to ensure that you feel safe, respected, and comfortable at all times.

Heart Coherence Meditation is a type of meditative practice designed to create harmony between your heart, mind, and emotions. It emphasizes regulated breathing, positive emotional states (like appreciation or love), and focused awareness on the heart area. The goal is to reach a physiological state known as heart coherence—where your heart rate variability (HRV) becomes smooth and synchronized, which is linked to improved emotional regulation, mental clarity, and overall well-being.Read class details

EFT tapping, also known as Emotional Freedom Technique, is a self-help method that combines cognitive and acupressure principles to manage stress, anxiety, and other emotional issues. It involves tapping on specific meridian points on the body.While tapping, individuals focus on the specific emotion, memory, or physical sensation they want to address. The tapping is often accompanied by verbal affirmations or statements about the issue and self-acceptance. By stimulating these points, EFT aims to reduce emotional distress and promote a sense of calm and well-being. Preparing for class:*Please plan to arrive 15 minutes early to allow time for parking, checking in, and setting up your mat.

Holotropic Awakening is a powerful and transformative practice that can lead to profound healing and personal growth. Through deep accelerated breathing, as well as, combining inhalation and exhalation into a cycle of continuous breath, the sounds of powerful chakrally anglined music induce a deep form of meditation and a sort of psychedelic experience i.e.Holotropic Awakening. This altered state of consciousness allows us to access deeper parts of ourselves. This can lead to greater self-awareness, releasing blocked energy and emotion, increased creativity, and a sense of connection to the universe. In this Holotropic Awakening experience, you will be guided by experienced facilitator Sam Pullen who will create a safe and supportive environment for your journey. You will also have the opportunity to connect with others who are on a similar path of self-discovery. If you're looking to explore the depths of your being and unlock your full potential, Holotropic Awakening may be just what you need. Sign up today and experience the transformative power of Holotropic Awakening for yourself!Things to consider:If you live with the following conditions, this experience may not be for you.Cardiovascular issuesHigh blood pressureRecent injury or surgeryAny condition requiring regular medicationPanic attacksPsychosis and seizure disordersHow to prepare:wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move freely. It iscompletely acceptable to wear pajama-type clothes for your breathworksessions. Most likely you will want socks for the breathwork sessionsA warm sweater, wrap, or blanket to wrap around yourselfBlankets, Mats, PillowsYou will be laying on the floor for more than one hours, so you are encouraged tobring as many blankets, sleeping bags, thick mats so that you are as comfortable as possible.

Best cacao! True & powerful cacao. Serene, peaceful energy in the whole place. Great people all around… excited to try more!

Jeff D. July 15, 2025

Third Eye Cacao, the most diverse cacao and wellness oriented cafe i have ever visited. This is a phenomenal place for not only grounding with lovely authentic and ethically sourced cacao, but also to meet soulful people, make meaningful connections, and enjoy the fengshue for studying and rejuvination. Words cannot do justice to the full experience. You should come and find out for yourself why this gem in casa de luz among many other beautiful stores and spaces is one to remember. Thankyou ❤️‍🔥

I’ve never met anyone more willing to serve and support community without expecting anything in return. Neil operates from a place of love and authentic intention. Grateful for his support and friendship. If you are in need of inspiration, wisdom, or the best cacao, look no further. ♥️

Kevin P. June 24, 2025

I stopped in for a cup of cocoa, expecting comfort, but what I got was ceremony. The kind of drink that feels like it was made with intention, not just ingredients. A haven in every sense: soft lighting, grounding presence, and offerings that feel more like rituals than menu items. Deepest gratitude to the creators of this space, you’ve stirred something calm and nourishing into the world, one cup at a time.

rose v. June 14, 2025

Finally leaving a review, since I usually forget due to how relaxed I am each time I visit! I can’t stress enough how happy I am that this place exists. No matter the mood I’m in, their drinks are the perfect pick me up and I’m here weekly. My go-to is the Goddess energy with a little bit of honey, but the whole menu is good! Friendly staff too, but I do wish there was some type of reward system.

Sarah J. June 3, 2025

Very special place, amazing drinks with quality and pureness you can taste, excellent service from everyone who is there and a very free energy throughout the place 🙌🏾

isam k. May 18, 2025

The cacao here is good, and the vibes are amazing. It’s the kind of place where you run into awesome people whose very presence brings you peace and joy.

Sean S. April 10, 2025

The drink was so chocolatey and rich. Never had something like this before. It was a real treat and def can’t wait to get another one!

Karla R. March 23, 2025

Great place to do breathwork!

Alex A. March 19, 2025

I love that no matter how busy or slow this place is, the person who works there is personable and graceful. The cacao is nice and so is the ambiance.
