What People Are Saying About The Anatomy of Awakening Training:

Ground breaking! Effortlessly takes us into the very ground of our own being. Hands down, the finest Pranayama Arts Educational System that I know of. In my forty years as a licensed therapist, I have been privileged to work with and know many great teachers. I spent over 15 years working closely with John Bradshaw and have always been drawn to how essential merging modalities is in releasing retained violation and emotional trauma.Michael has touched thousands in his workshops and trainings. He is one of the few that I can say I trust implicitly.

Thomas Hedlund, MFT

Life-changing! This breath practice is unlike any other spiritual practice of meditation, chanting, plant medicine etc. It WAKES you up in every way and will shift you towards your highest potential. After stumbling upon Michael & Audri’s pranayama workshop in San Francisco at the Center SF last year, my intrigue was ignited. The breath brought me home to myself in a completely new way. During the breath workshop I saw my own patterns of self-criticism from an outside perspective as if I was looking myself in the mirror and was washed over with a wave of self-love, followed by tears and more tears. I left telling everyone I knew about the impact and brought the practice home with me. Almost a year later, I came back for the full experience and just finished the Anatomy of Awakening facilitator training Modules 1-5 in San Diego. We did deeply intensive pranayama sessions, as well as all the analytical background from Western Science, Eastern philosophy, and all the ancient mysticism. I walked out feeling a substantial shift in my spirit, mind, and body (I usually walk around in intense back pain which has subsided). My nervous system is forever changed. Highly recommend!!

This is IT. Whether you're seeking personal transformation, answers to big questions, or further education as a yoga and healing arts practitioner (or all of the above), this is it. I couldn't be more satisfied, thrilled, and honored to be a part of something so incredible and true. This is for EVERYONE. I implore you to explore here. This is a safe, fun, and sacred space held by people with the utmost integrity. This is the real work.

The Breath Center is a location where you learn how to reconnect with yourself. I thought I was there to just learn how to facilitate breath work.... however, I left learning so much more about myself, dove deeper in my knowing and learned to trust my intuition more. Michael and Audri hold a space where we can all be vulnerable and feel accepted. There so much knowledge Michael shared with us about different breathing methods, yoga, life source. I highly recommend The Breath Center to anyone wanting to dive deeper, find their wholeness, and be educated!

Claudia M., Graduate

I am forever transformed, filled with gratitude and humility for the depth of the knowledge that has been passed down! Training with The Breath Center has had a profound impact on my personal life and the lives of my clients. I was opened to a myriad of topics explored through the prism of the breath, from classical pranayama to contemporary mysticism and body language. As the modules proceeded, seeds planted previously began to sprout in ways I appreciate more and more each day. In the final levels, a valuable container for the practice, grounded in the esoteric origins of humanity and the collective karma we hold revealed the areas which are currently ripe for healing.

Justin T., Graduate

I feel like I found my home: The union of teachings, the place where all spiritual traditions, and science, come together and we see and focus on what unites them instead of trying to separate and make one right and all others wrong. How the training was carried out on site is a great implementation and sample of 'right relationship' in practice, of making use of our full potential by connecting left and right hemisphere of the brain and engaging both of them, and of exploring our own innate knowledge by Socratic communication. I feel deeply embraced by both Michael and Audri (as well as by the guardians and the other participants) and am so grateful I found them as space holders and creators of this beautiful intentional community and school. I can wholeheartedly recommend even just Module I to anyone intending to deepen their practice!

Birgit P., Graduate

The Breath Center and Michael Brian Baker changed my life! I completed the training in San Diego and it was a Shamanic experience. With his broad background of Eastern Vedas and South American ceremony, he gives complete experiential knowledge of the Vyana Vayu Pranayamas. I have studied and been initiated into many spiritual practices and have never had such complete soul awakenings. This breathwork experience is the culmination of a lifetime of devoted practices. I have also noticed deep inner shifts and dropping of negative patterns and habits. I feel amazing and filled with prana. I have so much Energy and clarity even with little sleep. I am so grateful for these techniques and am excited to be able to share them in my healing practice. I cannot say enough about the blessings this training has brought into my life.

Uma T., Graduate

I can’t express enough gratitude for the transformational work of Breath Center and the beautiful family surrounding it! Module I-V packed so much advanced knowledge and wisdom that would benefit any practitioners and those looking to deepen their relationships with themselves and the energy. It’s an exceptional and safe place with heart centered beautiful individuals.
