I attended the Breathwork and Ice Plunge event, and the word that best describes my experience is transcendent. The event offered yoga, breathwork, an ice plunge, and a wonderful sense of community, all for a very small cost. I’m deeply grateful to the organizers for the experience and their generous offering, and I look forward to attending future events.

My experience at Nirvana Method was incredible. Yoga with Nicole, breathwork and the Cold Plunge with Cesar and Josh were all wonderful. I also met so many heart-open people who were welcoming and full of love: it felt truly special to share that energy. I’m very grateful for the experience and wish everyone to…
