Jowita Magdalena Stan-Sokołowska
My name is Jowita. I’ve tried my hand at various things in life.
I am a qualified teacher and manager. I have always been fascinated by people, their potential and the optimal conditions for their development. For as long as I can remember, I have been searching for myself: I danced at Five Rhythms workshops, learnt non-violent communication according to Marshall Rosenberg, I took part in many family constellation sessions using Bert Hellinger’s method, I became friends with my body by learning MA-URI massage, I got to grips with my own power during Oneness workshops, and I took part in many other self-development workshops. All of these were wonderful journeys of self-discovery, under the guidance of brilliant trainers and teachers.
Since 2002, I have been a fan, and later an advocate, of the rebirthing method. I completed the first Polish edition of the two-year Swedish Prana Visions Breathwork Trainer School. Another method I use to support my clients is Systemic Constellations (Family Constellations). In my practice, during workshops and in individual sessions, I combine various techniques and methods… exceptional times call for exceptional solutions…
In 2007, I founded the company “PRZYSTAŃ w drodze do…”.
In my private life, I am a happy wife and mum. I live near Wrocław. I’m a fan of Pilates, 5 Rhythms dance and the art of arranging spaces – Feng Shui. I enjoy a good night’s sleep, a tasty meal and a good laugh. What I am currently doing in life is my way of living, of living joyfully…
I also invite you to embark on the greatest adventure of all: discovering Who You Really Are…

Agnieszka Burzyńska
My name is Agnieszka. I am a breathwork therapist, personal development coach, natural nutrition consultant and advocate for a healthy lifestyle. I graduated from the University of Wrocław with a Master’s degree in Education, and subsequently completed the Prana Vision Rani Spets Edgren School of Breathwork and a course in Psychodietetics at the University of Life Sciences in Wrocław.
I have been conducting breathing sessions and training for 17 years. For the past 5 years, I have been advising on natural nutrition to maintain and improve health. I am a member of the team of therapists at the Integrative Medical Centre and the Health Clinic, where I conduct consultations and individual sessions, weekly group breathing sessions, antenatal preparation for couples, and classes to improve breathing, body and mind for seniors.
For twenty years, I have been on a path of expanding consciousness. I have gained experience under the guidance of practitioners of holistic medicine, Chinese medicine, university lecturers, breath therapists and psychologists. I learnt breathing techniques under the guidance of Rani Spets Edgren. My great passion is helping people open their hearts to themselves and others. Breath is the energy of the heart’s space.
My motivation to work on myself stemmed from personal struggles. The turning point for my well-being and health came when I took a good look at myself, acknowledged my own agency, and took responsibility for my life. That’s when I felt the power to change my life. My personal transformation helps me support others and believe unwaveringly in people. I love what I do! I support clients through life changes. I advise on how to eat naturally and how to use internal resources – breath, nutrition, body intelligence and awareness – to transform one’s life towards health and happiness. For over a decade, this has been the core focus and passion of my life. Whatever imbalance you may be experiencing in your life, there is certainly a breathing technique that can help regulate it. By observing your body and the way you breathe, I can diagnose and select the appropriate technique to break your breathing pattern so that you can breathe more harmoniously. I have acquired this skill by working with the breath of thousands of people, over thousands of hours spanning more than a decade.
Conscious breathing involves unblocking and restoring physiological, full breathing through appropriately selected breathing exercises. Correct breathing is a prerequisite for mental health, good digestion, proper heart function and the cleansing of the body. Breathing is the fundamental factor regulating and restoring the body’s harmony in every sense and meaning. Whatever ails you, start by improving your respiratory function with the help of a specialist. Then you are addressing the cause rather than the symptoms of the problems. Nutritional consultations – healthy eating is not just about what you eat, but also how you eat, when you eat and, most importantly, how you digest. In turn, ‘how you digest’ depends, among other things, on your breathing, your zest for life and your love for yourself and others.
On a personal note, I am the daughter of Maciej and Irena, and the mum of Monika and Szymon. Our family also includes our dog Maks and our cat Bili. I live in Wrocław, on planet Earth, in the cosmos.
I invite you to come and meet me.

Anna Porańska
My name is Anna. I am a psychologist, psychotherapist, breathing coach and a certified Addiction Therapy Specialist. I have been providing psychotherapeutic support for over 25 years. I work with adults. I provide individual psychotherapy and couples/marriage therapy, and I run various types of support, therapeutic and development groups.
In terms of the techniques I offer, in addition to those associated with traditional therapeutic work, I use breathing exercises and sessions – Rebirthing – and incorporate bodywork into my psychotherapeutic practice.
I am:
– a Master of Psychology – a graduate of the University of Wrocław, specialising in Psychology.
– a graduate of the School of Interpersonal and Therapeutic Training at the Alternative Education Workshop.
– a graduate of the Centre for Psychological Education in Wrocław – School of Psychological Assistance: Gestalt Therapy.
– A Certified Addiction Therapy Specialist.
– Currently undertaking a four-and-a-half-year course in Ericksonian psychotherapy run by the Polish Ericksonian Institute in Łódź.
I undergo regular supervision of my work. In my practice, I focus on the person as a whole, taking a holistic approach to both the individual and the issue they present. When working with others and helping them, I take into account their functioning across four dimensions – emotional, physical, intellectual and spiritual. I understand mental health, and thus the possibility of a good life, as a balance between these dimensions.
My work with clients involves looking at themselves in all these aspects and seeking harmony within them. I believe that the resources each of us possesses play an important role in restoring well-being and balance in life. When working with others, I help them discover these resources and make use of them in their daily lives. From my perspective, an important aspect of therapeutic work is getting to know one’s own life story and family relationships, examining oneself against the backdrop of one’s family of origin, and understanding all of this within the context of one’s own adult life.
Understanding and identifying the source of one’s expectations, desires and attitudes, as well as experiencing and understanding one’s emotions, allows one to fully reclaim one’s own power, stand on one’s own two feet and take responsibility for one’s personal choices and life.
I specialise primarily in Ericksonian therapy, Gestalt therapy, the systemic approach, and body-oriented work – trauma work and breathing exercises (Rebirthing).
In my private life, I enjoy spending my holidays sailing in Masuria, and I like getting out of the city, particularly to places with water and mountains. I have many acquaintances and a group of friends with whom, whenever I can, I spend time simply being together and having hours-long conversations about everything that affects us, concerns us, we experience, and that reaches us…
I am someone seeking experiences in the field of personal development – including methods that are alternative to mainstream psychology.
