I
have struggled with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome for years.
At times it was so painful I would lose the use of my
right hand. I frequently dropped things and could not
perform simple tasks or even sit and meditate as sitting
erect would cause agonizing spasms from the root of my
shoulder blade to my thumb and forefinger. There was a
small knot like a walnut beneath my shoulder that agonizing.
I was beginning to resign myself to the need for surgical
correction, which I have heard only helps temporarily
and not very well and is fraught with complications. As
I went through my ten private sessions all these symptoms
began to fade. I did not actually notice it at first.
It had just faded from my body and my thoughts. My tenth
session was a breakthrough that so exceeded anything I
could expect. The knot beneath my shoulder felt as though
it exploded, but not in a bad way, it was a release. I
felt the energy of it shatter and fly out of my body.
I was free of pain completely. I felt alive and powerful
and wanted to roar like a lion. I felt as though I had
been freed from the prison of my body's pain and my body
was a safe haven. Now I am home.

I especially loved your explanation of the way you channel...
the presence of the 4th & 5th dimension. That explanation
crystallizes what I have been trying to muddily explain
when I say 'I've never met anyone like her. She's a whole
new level of grace in the world.' -
Jody Lewis, Ojai, CA.
"I
have been doing yoga for 13 years and am a child of the
self-help movement. There was something missing and Julia's
breathwork opened up channels of love in ways I have never
felt. If you are wanting to remove the blocks of pain
and disconnect for good then invest in this blissful transformational
work."

yoga teacher, founder of 'I am not a Mess' & Creator
of Yoga Foundations
"I
feel soooo expanded and so liberated from all self-imposed
bondage..." - Michaelle H.,

"Today
marks the one year anniversary of my re-awakening--all
made possible because of you arriving in my life on that
grand day! It has been a wild ride ever since. One that
was pre-ordained by a power greater than me and one that
had to be unleashed finally. I am forever grateful to
you Julia-this day will always remain a most sacred day
for me the rest of my life!"
- Peter Pfautsch, retired. Dallas, TX.
"Thank
you for this beautiful sign of how happiness is a choice
and a state of mind. I see your peaceful face in front
of me everyday and remember your loving words and arms.
I am attached to nothing and to no one and I am free...
to discover, explore, feel, forgive, and love life. Thank
you for being the catalyst for change. I don't know what
I would have done without you." -
Linda N., Los Angeles.
"I
learned how much effort I am wasting when I spend time
worrying or trying to be something, and how my natural
state is completely effortless.
I let go of all worry. All anxiety. All sense of trying
to do or to be anything.
...I
realized how simple and easy and effortless this can be.
And I realized how much effort it takes to be holding
onto thoughts, worrying about things, always trying in
some way to be or feel something different.
...The
main thing Breath of Love immersion taught me is what
letting go means, and how to do it."

Elliott Lemberger, Los Angeles, CA
"It was a remarkable
experience and I am so astounded as to what breath can
do and heal energetically, and so quickly it seems to
me. This is coming from someone who was a therapist (MSW)
for many years a while back and also went to a number
of therapists, and has just recently realized that talking
a lot and analyzing problems has its purpose and benefits
to a point, but often keeps us in the ego and mind and
not opening the heart up as much...where a deeper level
of healing can occur. It seems that that's the next step
of my journey and I feel blessed that we met. You seem
like a very skilled, gentle, and authentic person who
truly enjoys discovering her own life and helping to heal
others. "
- Kim Gould, freelance
event planner, Los Angeles, CA.
"It is truly another level of Breath Work, delivered through
an angelic presence going by the name of Julia. There
are truly not enough good things that can be said for
the work this woman is bringing to us in this time of
great need for balance on our planet and in ourselves."
- Dharma, High
Hope, TX.
"As a skeptical, but
enquiring soul searcher, I found Julia's extraordinary
grace and her exceptionally skilled approach to breathwork
unsupressively powerful, as long as I allowed myself to
be led by her brilliantly intuitive timing. Absolutely
mind blowing." - Niklas Spitz, British
poet and designer. Big Sur, CA.
"I have noticed
that when really powerful transformational experiences
have come my way, BIG resistance comes up first. Well
the first workshop with Julia's Breath of Love was no
exception. I had such difficulty getting to the workshop
and it was in a place I had been to many times. At one
point I said to myself 'All this difficulty just means
real change is about to happen and there is a BIG payoff
on the otherside'. I was so right. But not in a way that
I could feel ahead of time, because the experience was
simply off my scale! First of all Julia embodies everything
I imagine a true healer to be: present, compassionate
and incredibly loving. As she floated around the room
with all that light around her she was truly an angelic
vision. And the breathing technique is simple. The energy
got stronger and stronger until I thought I would not
be able to accept it, SO much love energy! Her sweet voice
kept guiding me to accept all that love until I could.
I felt safe and restored. I felt belongingness. I could
barely share my experience with the group as I was in
a profound non-verbal state of consciousness. Words would
have diffused the experience. What else can I say except
everyone should do this at least once in their lives!"
- Deborah Stein, business
consultant, Dallas, TX.

"Julia's was the first
breathing workshop (of any kind!) that I have attended.
The workshop plus the private session was, truly, life
changing. I had a foot reflexology treatment, yesterday;
and was amazed at how much more open and responsive I
was. And I know that my continued use of Julia's breathing
technique is largely responsible. Many changes have been
facilitated by Julia's and my, work.
iiiiiiii I am
reading the part of Tolle's "A New Earth" where he talks
about how breathing is a quick method to open up space
and become conscious. I am a iiiiiiii With
your guidance and instruction and VERY GENTLE manner of
helping me into and through the breathing experience during
Saturday's workshop and Sunday's private session I released
stress that I have been caring for as much as 45 years.
And after more than a month since your sessions, my massage
therapist attests that the stress has not returned. While
some of us thougth you to be an Angel, I believe you to
be no less than a Goddess with Divine Healing power, showing
us how to use our healing power for self healing. Bless
you, Julia, as I am blessed since opening myself to experience
you and your teachings."
- David LaGrone, vedic
astrologer. Granbury, Texas.
As I was telling someone
about the workshop, it came to me to describe my experience
as a room full of spirits, masters, profits, sages, healers
and saints, Jesus, Mary, St. Michael and God all lined
up waiting to give us a hug and a smile and they did.
I love that visual and will continue to love that visual
as it is quite real to me.

Worth, Texas.
Beyond words, beyond
thoughts
is a field of oneness
I'll meet you there
no matter how lost
or disconnected I may feel
the breath is my lifeline
that brings me back
to my essential bliss
and when I start to contract
and shrink back
I just breathe a bit more deeply
and expand further still
and when I am sure
I cannot hold
another drop of love,
I surrender and go deeper
and take another cup
I am fearless in
these moments
and willing to be seen
and loved just as I am
in tears, in bliss, in trembling,
in giddy laughter
Out beyond words
and reasons
I'll meet you there
where I choose
right here and now
to breathe the breath of love
and live with an open heart.
(For Julia, my guide
in the field of oneness)

Julia's embodiment of the energy of unconditional Love
is so pure that I instantly felt transported to Heaven
in her presence. She created the sacred space for me to
heal all that needed to be healed.
- Jesus Nebot, founder and CEO of Zokalo Entertainment
and Love Empowerment Seminars, an award winning filmmaker
as well as renowned inspirational speaker.
"After my session with Julia, I was relaxed and open,
which was lovely. I have done many many types of energy
work, healing work and self education, so I was thinking
that the session would be nice, but not profound. I was
pleasantly surprised!!! I realized this work really affects
the entire matrix of life. We are all like holograms,
and when one tiny section of the hologram is opened up
to love and breath, the entire hologram is affected. This
proof came to me when after the session, my father called
me out of the blue to share some very deep and profound
feelings that he had been meaning to share with me for
a long time regarding a relationship in my life, but felt
hesitant, thinking he was interfering in my personal life.
I feel it was no coincidence, that doing the breath work
with Julia affected my fathers emotional state hundreads
of miles away, and he was able to speak with me candidly
and with deep heartfelt authenticity. This work not
only impacts the reciever, but also all those in the recievers
life that they are connected to! What a gift. "
- Rebecca Randolph,
Massage and Reiki therapist, Los Angeles, CA.
"I know we all hear about interesting events and it's
hard to determine where best to spend our time and money.
I am not promoting the workshop, just sharing my experience
of this fascinating work and talented woman who is visiting
SB. When I first met Julia, I was struck by her beautiful
personal energy. Young but very wise. After having two
sessions, I realize that her talent and insight is nothing
less than profound. It was a new way to experience my
mind, body and spirit connection. Chi was surging thru
my body and was able to explore it in a way that I never
had before. When these special people cross my path, I
know it is for a reason. They become a guide to my next
level of understanding. I hope you have an opportunity
to meet Julia!"
Carol Gross, Landscape

"I knew during and after the session that everything had
changed for me. I went to a place of Peace, Safety and
Clarity that I had never before experienced in this life.
It became very evident that Everything is Perfect. Thank
You for helping me to access this, Julia. I will to share
this with the World."
Al Marcelline, Director
of Santa Barbara Wellness Directory

"I gained so much insight so much healing in this breathwork
workshop. I deeply appreciate both the simple techniques
(moving slowly, what makes me feel good) as well as the
powerful intense breathing sessions and the greater knowledge
of myself that they brought about. Your presence was strong,
solid, warm, gentle and made for a safe, comfortable experience.
You facilitated this workshop beautifully, shared and
gave so much of yourself without ever seeming put out
or overwhelmed and I felt you were always there when I
needed you – teaching me how to be more there for
myself. You shared many thoughts and ideas that I plan
to incorporate into my life and share with others when
opportunity allows. Thank you for your patience, kindness,
compassion, resolved nature and sharing your knowledge
so openly and effectively."
Ember, San Francisco,
CA.
"This weekend has been the most beautiful blessing. I
cannot say in words how grateful I am! It's been so healing
just to be in your presence, Julia. So comforting, loving.
I felt so safe and at ease from the moment we spoke on
the phone. Thank you for all your loving support. This
retreat couldn't have come at a better time for me. I
loved being with the group, so honest and caring. I loved
all the sharing and group support.
I can't wait to make music for that is my passion. And
breath takes me there, it allows me to sing freely."
Tamara, Ashland, OR.
"My sessions with Julia helped me to be ok with my emotions
and to be ok with confronting situations. I'm going about
my life with less fear and less guilt and seem to be reacting
to other people's drama less, as well.
You
are a curiosity to me. I've never met someone who was
so accepting of life, so enthusiastic to feel everything.
It causes me to think often when I start to feel tension
in my body or resentment starts building. I wonder to
myself how you would deal with the situation... "
Jennifer Homsher, photography student, Santa Barbara,
CA.
I breathe
Each breath more accepted,
less directed
Individual breath joining the stream of life
Stream to river
River to ocean
Ancient, moving to present
Let my heart be opened
Let my soul be wakened
Let the river of life
The river of love
flow freely home
Banks overflowing with
beauty, joy and gratitude
Yearning for the sea of oneness
Siri David, Spiritual
Counselor, Ashland, OR.
"...Breath by breath, magic is taking place. There is
the profound feeling of something extraordinary deep and
amazing happening. There are the tingles, now going into
my chest and my face. There are the surges of intense
anxiousness followed by pure bliss...
I become feverishly aware of how inseparably connected
the physical body and the psyche are and of the way they
experience change and motion as one. Every muscle, nerve,
and joint in my body is a little storehouse, holding information
of anger, trauma, joy, and sorrow.
And I let go, I let
go, I let go.
Suddenly, there are the tears. They emerge from my center,
surge to my chest, up my throat, and out, out, out….
Pouring, spilling, gushing, releasing. Out. Oh, how much
I’ve needed this, these tears of relief, of gratitude,
of letting go, and…downright disbelief.
When Julia invites us to slowly come back to physical
reality and move gently, an hour has gone by... Looking
around in a near-daze, I realize that I have just returned
home. Home to my real senses, to the pure, newborn me
that is always there and I’m so often out of touch
with. The me who doesn’t think, doesn’t judge,
doesn’t want, doesn’t anticipate, doesn’t
fear. The me with no past and no future, the me here now.
The infinite, pulsating essence of being.

"The work that Julia Mikk performs is truly transformational.
In my session with this gentle, loving, caring professional
I have moved into new realms of consciousness and my spiritual
life has received a huge positive lift! I highly recommend
this caring compassionate woman to anyone who is interested
in exploring the wonders of breathwork."

"Rebirthing is the key to unlocking the door to surrender,
to cast off the chains of judgment, to free the soul.
Now I can relax into every moment and experience it fully.
Surrendering in humility is so powerful! It resolves all
that is into all that I am." read more

"Your therapy has brought me through so release since
you left. I can only graciously thank you and encourage
you even more to get this
work out to people.
I had a shiatsu treatment after our breathwork intensive,
and my ribs and my neck released through tons of cracks
on each of the side. It has never happened like this before.
And now it did because I was using the breath you taught
me along with the treatment. Even my therapist said it's
because of my breathing. Now I feel 100% better. It's
absolutely amazing! Thank you!
"
Kevin Thurber, Massage
therapist. Seattle, WA.
"For the first time in my life I experienced something
so profound and so beautiful that there are no words to
adequately describe it. It happened during a rebirthing
session with Julia. First I felt myself relaxing more
and more. I saw lights hovering over my body and I went
deeper and deeper. Then I felt like I was gently being
rocked. I went even deeper and still experienced this
gentle rocking motion and at the same time felt this love
that’s so complete, so true, so powerful, yet gentle
at the same time, so beautiful! In short - beyond words.
To experience anything like this is truly the most precious
gift! It makes it much easier to deal with ones EGO and
it truly changes you forever."
Caroline Ruffner, retired.

"The way I see it - there are two types of people in the
world - most people are the ones who need the sunshine
to be happy... and then there are some few amazing people,
who ARE the sunshine... who warm the air around them just
by walking around, who make people smile just by looking
at them, who make all the problems go away with a simple
hug... I feel incredibly lucky for knowing Julia - a sunshine
like that... :)"
Kaido Kubri, Organizational
Field Leader, The Southwestern Company. Estonia.
"Julia brings the most powerful blend of Childlike innocence
and intuitive knowing to the Art of Breathwork. She continually
inspires me with her natural wisdom, her emotional courage,
her free spirit and her amazing ability to hold a space
of pure love. She is one of the best Breathworkers I know."
Dan Brule - a pioneer
in the Art and Science of Breathwork. Texas.
"There have been many
questions in my mind about how to accomplish goals of
Gods purpose for me and how to get there from here. I
had been listening to too many other peoples advice when
I already knew what to do. The breath session with Julia
blasted through my confusion, in an Instant all of the
questions that were bothering me were answered and I felt
at one with my innate intelligence and the Universal Wisdom
and Love."
Vincent Ruffino, Certified
Biofeedback Technician. New Orleans, LA.
"Breathing with Julia
is pure joy! She surrounds you with amazing unconditional
love and care, which makes exploring into your deep inner
world safe and easy. I like that Julia never forces you
to do anything, she lets the process unfold naturally
in its own flow, and that makes it an unforgettable, beautiful
experience. I simply love her!
Kretel Aavik, psychology
student and housewife. Estonia.
"In order to truly go
deep and experience release and growth, I have found one
needs to feel safe and comfortable and, if possible, loved.
Julia embodies love and allowance. She radiates acceptance
and puts you at ease just by her presence. During my sessions
I encountered a great release of energy and had my most
vivid, intense and beautiful vision of my life. I felt
like a new born cradled in it's mother's arms. Completely
safe and loved to be what I am. Thank you, Julia"
Matt Dean, singer and
songwriter. Toronto, CA.
"Every
time I think of Julia, I take a good, deep breath. And
every deep breath I take reminds me of Julia. And every
time I think of her, I take a good, deep breath. It's
a wonderful, endless cycle."

"No one had ever told
me that something as natural as breath is our connection
to the most expansive, exquisite love. Recently though
I discovered the healing power of breath when I met a
breathwork teacher named Julia Mikk in Santa Barbara,
CA.
iiiiiiii I now
know that breathwork is a profound, natural healing experience.
Our own healing breath oxygenates the body and brings
transformation and cleansing on all levels. A good practitioner
like Julia can help create a spiritual connection allowing
us to feel the incredible beauty of love in our heart.
This energy then radiates throughout our lives.
At the beginning of each session, I usually feel a bit
nervous as I drift off into the unknown. I can sense energy
in my hands at first, and then the energy fills my upper
body. It feels like I'm actually being bathed in bright,
warm sunlight.
iiiiiiii These
sessions put me right in the heart bypassing the analytical
mind with its distractions and resistance.
The work is so powerful
that I can barely move afterwards. Everything just seems
so right and beautiful.
iiiiiiii The
spiritual insights in this state are crystal clear. Julia
encourages me to form questions and use the time just
after my sessions to write out the insights that come
from tapping into my inner knowing. It's really amazing
to feel such joy, and I treasure how it brings this energy
into the day-to-day physical reality.
iiiiiiii
Breathwork is the most tangible reminder of our divine
inner being that I know. When I first experienced it,
I felt like a genie who had been let out of the bottle!
For me it would be worth traveling halfway around the
world just to discover. "
ii-AJ.
iiiiiiii
"The Breath of Love
process opened up my eyes and heart to the realization
that there is heaven on earth and divine grace is available
to us all if we just allow it. I actually feel everyday
the "new" me growing up inside of myself in wonderment
of all that is happening. It has led me to question my
habitual ways.
iiiiiiii That
being in service to others and doing so in the purest
essence of love that is humanly possible. That is what
I am being called to do and it is the greatest feeling
to finally understand my purpose to serve.
iiiiiiii Breath
of Love came into my life when I was at my darkest time
and has literally saved my life. There is still a journey
ahead of me but I now know where I am headed and who I
am. I am no longer lost thanks to you Julia and your guidance
and unconditional love. The bliss I have experienced is
beyond description."
