Heart Warrior’s Journey: Breathwork
Aug 25 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm
Pillar Holistic Living

Join us for a NEW transformative breathwork experience with Matt Tellier of Half Acre Holistics. Journey inwards and explore the depths of yourself with this heart-centered breathing practice. Open up your heart to clear away anything that no longer serves you including negative thoughts, stuck emotions, behavioral patterns, and limiting beliefs. Smash internal blockages, embrace your inner warrior, become a creator, and discover your limitless potential through the power of your breath.

This class is for all skill levels, from first-time breathers brand new to breathwork to seasoned breathers looking to expand their practice. You will be introduced to a simple and powerful breathing technique that anyone can do. This extended breathwork experience gives breathers the space to travel to new heights and explore the nuance and depths of their breath. Breathing with intention can help focus, ground and energize you to step into the best version of yourself. Your breath can be the master key to profound change and powerful transformation.

Breathwork is experiential in nature. You may experience increased creativity, deep inner peace, more self-confidence, more self-love or life purpose! Whatever your breathwork experience is, it will be unique from everyone else’s and different every time you do it. It’s like a surprise or unwrapping a gift. Your breath will give you what you need in the moment – All you have to do is breathe.

Truly a win-win!” says Zach Thigpen, singer and guitarist of The Grateful Brothers.
“We’re excited to team up for another great event of Rock Out Hunger with Loaves & Fishes, because food rescue is something that we’re all passionate about. We’re currently in our 13th year as a business, and this will be our 2nd event with Loaves & Fishes, and we hope for many more to come”, says Wes Gilliam, a co-owner of the Radio Room in Greenville, SC, as well as a founder of the Upstate Music Awards. He is a proud husband and father and a longtime supporter of Loaves & Fishes.
“Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places, if you look at it right.”- Jerry Garcia
