SKY Breath workshop for the military community is called the Power Breath Workshop. Power breath workshops are offered at no cost to military service members and their immediate families.
Resilience building is key
The Power Breath Workshop is a resilience-building program specifically designed to address the needs of active duty service members, returning combat veterans and their immediate families. Workshop offers the SKY breath technique to help decrease stress, anxiety and sleep problems that many returning veterans experience. Through rhythmic breathing patterns, the SKY Breath brings deep mental and physical relaxation which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, anger, insomnia and depression. Through interactive discussions, the Power Breath Workshop builds a framework for resilience and empowerment, and develops self-awareness, connectedness and community, and a positive outlook.

What Veterans are saying?
The Power Breath course really puts you in touch with your breathing and how it affects your stress levels. You become calm and relaxed with less stress… It is an extremely useful tool for individuals who suffer emotional trauma…
- Shad Meshad, Vietnam Veteran, Founder & Director, National Veteran’s Foundation
My experience with power breathing has been great! I look forward to the group sessions as it means I am going to sleep well that night. As I continue to develop my daily practice, my frame of mind becomes lighter, brighter and more peaceful. I also know that if things start to get hectic with a little bit of “Victory Breath”, I can get centered quickly and stay in control. I really recommend this program for all our Vets. You owe it to yourself. Goodness knows you have given enough – give to yourself.
– Norm Moore, Air Force, 20 years of service
The course was very beneficial for me uncovering things about myself that I never realized had been bothering me. It helped me be at peace with myself from issues, feelings and the things that I participated in at war… Through that I have been able to come to peace with some of the things that I did and the way I felt about them. I wish I could have learned this breathing 40 years ago.
– Noel, Vietnam Combat Veteran
