An introductory COURSE based on Michael Brown’s The Presence Process
Saturday & Sunday, November 29-30, 2025
Presence of Breath introduces you to two complementary paths to present moment awareness and emotional integration. The Presence Process by Michael Brown is a self guided, ten week journey that uses consciously connected breathing, simple responses, and weekly prompts to help you meet life with steadier presence. The book first appeared in 2005 and has since reached readers worldwide.
Transformational Breath® is a modern, education based approach to conscious, diaphragmatic breathing created by Dr. Judith Kravitz in the mid to late 1970s. It is taught globally through the Transformational Breath Foundation.
Michael Brown originally emphasized practicing the process on one’s own. After encountering Transformational Breath, he began recommending it for people who want guided facilitation while moving through the journey. Presence of Breath was created to teach the foundations of both, so you can begin your practice with clarity, support, and momentum.
Step into presence with the power of your breath!
Grow present moment awareness, through the simple structure of The Presence Process, using daily conscious breathing, intention, and gentle observation, so you can step out of reactivity, meet life as it unfolds, and cultivate steadiness in both mind and body.
Open your breath safely, with Transformational Breath’s structured setup, gentle coaching, and simple adaptations, so your body can release tension, your nervous system can settle, and emotional patterns can begin to integrate.
Feel supported, Michael Brown directs those seeking guided facilitation to Transformational Breath®, offering you a reliable method and experienced facilitators who provide safety, encouragement, and companionship on the path into presence.

I am very impressed with Eugenia Altamira! She is awesome! I find her very warm, loving, kind, wise, compassionate, considerate, hard-working, and incredibly skilled at being present and helping people work through difficult situations. She's a wonderful role-model. I feel extremely fortunate and blessed to have her supportive, uplifting presence in my life!
Linnea Beek Hansen
Eugenia is a very positive, caring, and loving person. I have worked together with her in many aspects for several years. She is an amazing teacher, coach, mentor, and friend. Eugenia is very skillful. You can count on high quality in her work. A workshop or training facilitated by Eugenia will surely be of great value and beautiful transformation for the participants. I highly recommend her.
Transformational Breath® Signature weekend
SOME COMMON QUESTIONS WE HEAR OFTEN
No. Presence of Breath is designed for beginners as well as those who have tried breath practices before. You will be guided step by step and supported throughout the weekend.
The facilitators are trained to hold a trauma-informed space where you are guided with care, safety, and respect. If strong emotions or memories arise, you will be supported to stay grounded and present, and given tools to help you integrate the experience. You are always in control of your process, and you will never be pushed beyond your readiness.
Yes. Many participants go on to the Transformational Breath® Essentials Course (Levels 1–3) for a deeper immersion into self-facilitation, or even into professional training if they feel called. This weekend is an excellent first step.
Transformational Breath® can be adapted for many people. Please let us know in advance about any medical conditions so facilitators can provide appropriate guidance.
Your registration covers all facilitated sessions, course materials, and food during the weekend.
Presence of Breath is based on Michael Brown’s book The Presence Process and integrates Transformational Breath®, the only breathwork method he recommends to accompany the journey. The weekend gives you a strong foundation and a “head start” if you plan to continue the full 10-week self guided process at home.
You will experience four fully facilitated Transformational Breath® sessions over the weekend, plus short talks, integration time, and Q&A.
Wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move freely and you can relax in. We encourage you to bring a refillable water bottle to avoid single use plastics, and a journal with something to write with for notes and reflections. Everything else you need will be provided at the venue.
The registration fee is non-refundable, but it can be transferred to another event led by Eugenia Altamira. If, for any reason, we need to cancel the event, you will receive a 100% refund.
