12-Min Guided Breathwork: Reset Energy & Daily Integration

Welcome to this new RISE Breathwork session — a short but powerful 12-minute journey designed to help you recharge, reset, and rise to your full potential. Experience how quickly you can change your state of being with the power of music and breath. Perfect for a morning boost, an energizing pause during your day, or a calming unwind in the evening.

Your guide: Joep Mencke — breathwork facilitator, DJ, and music producer — has led sessions across the globe for the past three years. His mission is to make transformation accessible and help you integrate breathwork into your daily life. In this practice, you’ll experience guided breathing patterns, gentle retentions, and moments of stillness, all supported by an original soundtrack composed by Joep. The music blends warm textures, subtle harmonies, and rhythmic layers to carry you deeper into the shift.

What to expect in this session:
• 10-minute guided breathwork for daily integration
• Original music and soundscapes by Joep Mencke
• Two to three short breathing cycles with retentions
• A balance of activation and relaxation
• Accessible to all levels — no prior experience required

Best experienced with headphones

Can be done sitting or lying down in a comfortable, undisturbed space

⸻

Breathwork Instructions

This is a connected breath practice — no pause between inhale and exhale.
 • Inhale: Belly & chest expand
 • Exhale: Belly & chest fall
 • Breathing in: Mouth (more powerful) or nose (gentler)
 • Breathing out: Mouth
 • Each cycle includes dynamic breathing followed by two retentions (~45 sec after exhale, then ~45 sec after inhale).
 • You may feel tingling, changes in temperature, or mild muscle tension — these are normal effects of breathwork.
 • If overwhelmed, return to gentle breathing in and out through the nose.
 • Always listen to your body and never force anything.

⸻

⚠ Important Contraindications

If you have a history of psychosis or epileptic seizures, this practice is not for you.

If you are currently pregnant, please listen closely to your body. Only participate if it feels right for you — and do not perform or hold any of the breath retentions.

If in doubt, consult your physician.

Peace & Stillness 15min - RISE Breathwork with Joep Mencke 007

This new RISE Breathwork journey focusses on courage: the moment you are ready to face your fears and transform your life. These sessions are dedicated to shift your state of being so you can rise to your full potential!

This video is part of the Unalome Series, inspired by my album Unalome. In Buddhism, the Unalome symbolizes the path to enlightenment. The album is based on the Hawkins Scale of Consciousness, where each track reflects a different state of being. The journey builds from lower states such as courage and letting go, toward the higher states of love, joy, and enlightenment. For every track, I created a unique breathwork practice to guide you into that state.

It is my mission is to make transformation accessible and help you integrate breathwork in to your day to day life. This is a reminder to all of us that courage is never outside of us, but always available within. Let's connect to that. In this practice, you’ll move through cycles of conscious connected breathing (activation) and retentions (relaxation) guided by my track Fahasa.

What to expect in this session:
• 13-minute guided breathwork journey
• Two cycles designed to connect you to stillness and peace
• Soundscape featuring Fahasa
• A practice to connect to yourself 
• Accessible to all levels — no prior experience required

Wearing headphones is highly recommended — they help you stay in your own bubble and fully immerse without outside distractions.

You can do this session sitting or lying down in a comfortable, undisturbed space.

Ein spirituelles, friedliches und liebevolles Gefühl will das Duo @birds-of-mind mit seinem Electronica versprühen. Und das beste Beispiel, dass den Franzosen Alex Heim und Adrian Carreno gelingt, ist ihre neue EP: „Ankara“. „Wir wachten am 10. Oktober auf und sahen in den Nachrichten den Bombenangriff im türkischen Ankara“, erzählen die beiden Musiker. „Wir hatten gerade mit dem Bau des Tracks begonnen, als sich dieser tragische Angriff ereignete.“ (...) Mit einem @stavroz Remix erschien die EP auf @francesca-lombardo's Label Echolette Records.

"In this podcast I used many unreleased tracks of some of the most interesting dub techno producers in my opinion. Nowadays it is becoming more difficult to find that specific sound that really catches me but when I do I’m always sharing my finds and supporting producers as much as I can. So big shoutout to Scandinavian countries and Iceland because people from there never fail in making beautiful and outstanding music." - Andrey Pushkarev
