Wellness with WNO

Wellness with WNO is a breathing and singing programme to support people experiencing symptoms caused by a post viral illness or an energy limiting condition. This can include (but is not limited to) Long COVID, breathlessness, myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), and fibromyalgia.

This six-week programme takes place online, one hour per week, and shares a variety of breathing and singing exercises to contribute towards improved breath control in a sociable and joyful environment. Breathing also plays a vital role in calming the nervous system and helping the body to move, and is an under recognised part of effective pain management. The sessions are led by a WNO vocal specialist, who are experts in breath control, who each week will guide you through breathing techniques and singing exercises they have cultivated over their careers.

No previous experience or interest in singing is required to take part.
