9D Breathwork Illawarra
A place to put down what you've been carrying.
9D breathwork brings together guided breathing, immersive sound and hypnotic coaching to help you explore emotions and familiar patterns that can be difficult to reach through words alone. At my Port Kembla studio, I support you through that experience, with space to express what comes up and reconnect with yourself.

What happens in a 9D breathwork session?
You listen to music and spoken guidance through headphones while following a breathing practice. I explain the format before we begin and stay with you to support the session.
A private appointment gives us time to work individually. At a group event, you share the space while listening through your own headphones. The listing explains the theme and what is included.
How I guide you
- Before we begin: time to settle in, ask questions and practise the breathing.
- During the session: recorded guidance and in-person support, with room to slow down or pause.
- Before you leave: time to rest and reflect on your experience.
What brings you to breathwork?
You might be looking for time away from everyday demands, have questions about your breathing or want individual support. These guides explain how I approach different situations and what to consider before attending.

Who I work withMeet Hayley
I’m Hayley Simpson, a Certified 9D Breathwork Facilitator and Master NLP Practitioner. I guide private sessions and group breathwork at my Port Kembla studio, and work with organisers to bring breathwork into their events.
Before we begin, I want to understand what brings you here and give you time to ask questions. I explain the breathing and headphones, support you during the session and leave time for you to rest afterwards.
If you’re considering a program, we can also talk about the difference between four weeks working with me and the three-practitioner approach of Beyond Survival.

“I have been doing breathwork at Kora now for six months, three times a week. I can honestly say it has changed my life and I couldn't be without it. For me it's like exercising the mind and soul, practicing regularly to manage my depression and anxiety. To be able to go somewhere you feel safe and welcome and really focus on yourself is something I am so grateful for, thank you Hayley for providing such a place. Breathwork really is a skill everyone should learn and use to improve their lives. I know it's improved mine.”
— Belinda Taylor -
“I went to a spiritual awakening session at Kora Wellness and wasn’t quite sure what to expect. I walked away completely mind blown, and feeling like so much trauma I had was released. It was so much more than a 90 minute session. Thankyou Hayley for facilitating such a life changing experience. I’ll be a regular!”
— Leah Mitchell -
“Absolutely loved my session, Hayley certain makes all feel welcomed, safe and comfortable. It was my first ever introduction to breath work and I feel as though I got a lot out of it. Totally 100% recommend and look forward to returning for more. The delicious cup of tea and a yarning reflection, was certainly a beautiful way to wrap up the session thanks again.”
— Julie Moulatsiotis -
“I had an amazing breathwork session. Kora Wellness have created a calming and safe space. My session was powerful, grounding and unexpectedly emotional, in the best way. I left feeling lighter, clearer, and genuinely renewed. Highly recommend.”
— Ella Whyman
Questions about 9D Breathwork?
Let’s make it easy.
What is 9D breathwork?
9D breathwork combines a guided breathing practice with music and spoken guidance through headphones. I explain the session before we begin and support you in person. The format varies between individual appointments, group events and programs.
Can I come if I’m new to breathwork?
You can ask me about a session before deciding to attend. I explain the breathing pattern and headphones, with time for questions. Let me know about any concerns so we can discuss the format and preparation beforehand.
How much does a session cost?
Public event prices are listed with each booking. Private appointments, corporate sessions and private gatherings are priced by enquiry. The four-week You Are Not Broken program is $550. Beyond Survival is $1,650 upfront or eight weekly payments of $236.25, totalling $1,890. Kids group sessions are $25 per child. The relevant service page explains the inclusions and next steps.
How do I book?
For a public group event, open Bookings and choose a published Humanitix listing. For a private appointment, kids group or a gathering you’re organising, use the enquiry button on that service page. Program pages explain their own enquiry and payment options.
Do you offer women-only events and children’s sessions?
Yes. My women’s circles page covers women-only events, occasional monthly circles and private groups. Kids breathwork is a separate group format for ages 5–17; enquire with me about the next session.
How long does a session take?
Check the start and finish times on the event listing. For private appointments and group bookings, I’ll confirm the session length when we discuss the arrangements. You Are Not Broken includes four 90-minute private appointments across four weeks.
Where will my session take place?
My studio is at 43 Wentworth Street, Port Kembla NSW 2505. Check the venue on your event listing, as events and collaborations may take place elsewhere. The private programs also have online options, explained on their individual pages.
