- - Meet Your Facilitator - -

Tom Woods is a certified breathwork facilitator and trauma-informed somatic coach.

And, a kriya yogi initiated through the Isha lineage.

Woods is passionate about indigenous Irish spirituality and retrieving our lost ancestral wisdom.

We are all indigenous from somewhere, and far enough back, all of our religion was the same. Nature + spirit = Animism.

Woods is committed to the integral blending of these worlds together with conscious business coaching, advocating for transformation and bringing dreams to life!
