Richard Bock: Master of Aquatic Bodywork & Breathwork Innovation

Richard Bock is a master of Aquatic Bodywork, a Bhakti Yogi at heart, and an innovator in the field of Breathwork. He integrates live soundscapes, guided meditation, and ecstatic breath into the Quantum Light Breath experience.

His gift of deeply compassionate and exquisitely attuned presence pours through his eyes, voice, and body. This presence has the power to soften, open, and transform those he touches, cultivated and refined by over 50 years of personal inquiry. Richard has been the only (QLB) lineage holder since 2001.

For 23 years, while living at Harbin Hot Springs in California, Richard guided many people in coming home to themselves—finding embodiment in an ecstatic atmosphere of authenticity. Now living in Hawaii, he offers his creation SomaRasa Lila (divine elixir of eternal life), where he journeys with you into an experience of Oneness.
