Frequently Asked Questions
❔Getting Started

Multiple-choice review to check your knowledge

Celebrating your completion and moving into practice
-
No.
You don't need a counselling qualification, coaching certification or therapy background to enrol.
What matters most is curiosity, a willingness to learn and a genuine desire to support others.
-
No.
Many of our students come from coaching, therapy and wellbeing backgrounds, but the pathway is open to anyone who feels called to the work.
You don't need to fit a particular mould to become a facilitator.
-
Absolutely not.
In fact, one of the core beliefs behind the pathway is that none of us are ever "finished".
The goal isn't perfection.
The goal is self-awareness.
The strongest facilitators aren't the ones who have all the answers. They're the ones who remain curious about themselves and continue doing their own work.
-
Yes.
Because before you learn to hold space for others, you'll learn to hold space for yourself.
Most facilitator trainings focus entirely on the method.
The Inner You Facilitator Pathway™ focuses on both the method and the facilitator.
Inner You helps you explore your own patterns, emotional responses, beliefs and relationship with yourself so that you can show up more authentically when supporting others.
❔The training
-
The pathway teaches Breathwork for Emotional Release, which is rooted in Conscious Connected Breathwork.
This approach combines conscious connected breathing with reflection, emotional expression, nervous system awareness, visualisation and integration.
For those who feel called to it, this may also include the optional use of a scream or vocal release.
-
Conscious Connected Breathwork uses a continuous breathing pattern without pauses between the inhale and exhale.
The practice is designed to support greater awareness, emotional connection and self-understanding.
It is different from breathing exercises focused purely on relaxation, performance or stress management.
-
You have 12 months to complete the pathway.
Most people move through it at their own pace alongside work, family and other commitments.
-
Yes.
The training is delivered online and can be completed in your own time.
This allows you to move through the material at a pace that works for you whilst still benefiting from community support and live opportunities.
-
You'll receive access to the facilitator community from day one.
This includes opportunities to connect with other students, ask questions, share experiences and continue learning throughout your journey.
Many students tell us that the community becomes one of the most valuable parts of the experience.
-
Most facilitator trainings teach a method.
This pathway develops both the method and the facilitator.
Alongside learning Breathwork for Emotional Release, you'll explore your own growth through Inner You, receive community support, gain practical experience and build confidence over time.
Our aim isn't simply to help people become certified.
It's to help develop facilitators who create spaces where people feel safe, seen and able to be themselves.
