2024-11-06 19:00 - 20:30 | Divine Studios, 87 Canterbury St. Suite 301, saint john
Hosted in the inspiring and dreamy Divine Studios location .. transform your life beginning here

Breath is one of our most powerful tools to support us every day. Conscious Connected Breathwork is a vibrant practice that guides us beyond the busyness of the mind and into a state of presence. It is a powerful technique that allows individuals to tap into their emotional body and release any built-up emotional charge stored in the nervous system.

This can lead to a deep sense of healing, increased awareness, personal insight, and a profound connection with one’s deepest self. In our journeys, we may use a variety of contemplative practices, sharing, movement, sound, and breath to support both the experience and integration.

This is a powerful practice and not recommended for those who are pregnant, have heart conditions, glaucoma, epilepsy, or are undergoing treatment for significant physical or mental health concerns.

The most interactive comedy show in the world!
“Hilarious and Fascinating” – Time out New York
HYPROV (pronounced hip-rawv) is coming to after 100 cities toured, a 70-show run Off- Broadway in New York City and a six month residency in Las Vegas!!
HYPROV is “hilarious and fascinating” (says Time Out New York) and is “catnip for those who relish spontaneity and informality,” (The Wall Street Journal). The New Yorker says, “say yes to HYPROV,”!
The 90-minute live show combines hypnosis and improv – two art forms that have mystified and entertained fans, skeptics and everyone in between worldwide – for a totally unique comedy experience that The Times of London declared “a celebration of the human imagination.” Your evening begins with World Renowned Hypnotist, Asad Mecci welcoming 20 volunteers* on stage to be hypnotized. The most receptive to hypnosis then join Colin Mochrie (Whose Line is it, Anyway?) to improvise the rest of the show, while hypnotized.
In the hands of two experts, and solely crafted from the volunteers’ uninhibited, unconscious minds and audience suggestions, each show is an entirely original and completely unforgettable theatrical experience.
Whether in the audience or on stage performing, get ready to have the time of your life!!
*Participation is completely voluntary
