Breema is a form of bodywork that has been described as a cross between partner yoga and Thai massage.

The techniques may be utilized in either a practitioner-recipient mode or solo as "Self-Breema."

Purpose

The practice is intended to bring body and mind together,[1] and no strong exertions or muscular contortions are involved.[2]

Breema utilizes "Nine Principles of Harmony" which frame the practice, and are applicable to every situation in life.[3] These principles are said to assist with mindfulness in daily life.

There are at least 300 exact Breema sequences.[4]

History

Breema is believed to appear several generations ago in a small Kurdish village called Breemava, somewhere between Afghanistan and Iran.[5] This method was supposedly imported to the USA by Mr. Malouchek Mooshan who was taught the practices by his grandfather (or his great grandfather, according to other sources).[6]

Together with Dr. Jon Schreiber, a chiropractor from the USA, Malouchek founded Breema Center in about 1980.[7] Today, this Center is managed by Dr. Jon Schreiber.[8]

Principles of Harmony

Breema is based on the 9 Principles of Harmony:[9][10]

  1. Comfort — exercises should never ever bring any discomfort.
  2. Firmness and gentleness — these are the characteristics of the exercises.
  3. No force — no force should be applied in the movements and exercise.
  4. Mutual support — you give and receive at the same time.
  5. No judgment — the goal is for the client to feel comfort and accept who he truly is.
  6. Full participation — a client is an active partner who activates his mind and body.
  7. No hurry and no pause — movements are not hasty, but various exercises and movements have no pauses in between.
  8. No extra — everything a client should do is to be at the present moment to show his true nature.
  9. Single moment — every movement or action is a full manifestation of our nature.
