The Being Method Review: Cost, Format and Who It Fits
Our The Being Method review in short: MJ Renshaw's online certification teaches somatic Breathwork at your own pace, with business coaching built in. The real question: self-paced video, or a live training with a published price?
The Being Method is a trademark of its owner. Liquid Breathwork is not affiliated with or endorsed by The Being Method or MJ Renshaw, and we don't teach or certify their method.

Get My Free RecordingWhat We Liked, and What to Weigh
Business training sits inside The Being Method certification, from pricing to finding clients. Few trainings do that. The live calls mean self-paced isn't alone.
Weigh two things. The price isn't on their site, and their FAQ says no refunds. The curriculum also reaches past breath into metaphysics and quantum energy healing. For the breath itself, guided live, compare our Breathwork certification. Want to feel a session first? Try a free recording of one of our live Breathwork classes.
These lessons cover the trauma-informed, somatic side their ads lead with, taught live.
- Trauma-Informed Facilitation
- The Nervous System & Polyvagal Theory
- Structuring a Session: The Energetic Arc
- Physical Touch: Consent & Techniques
- Building Your Offer Ladder
What we don't teach: We don't teach or certify The Being Method. We don't cover quantum energy healing or intuition development either, and we don't build your business for you like their CEO Launchpad tier. If you need those, train with them.
