<p>Join me in learning one of my favorite Kundalini meditations for transformation!</p><p><br></p><p>In this FWFG session, I go back to my roots and early days of traditional yoga by sharing a mantra practice that I find to be potent and useful from the Kundalini Yoga tradition. Mantras are powerful tools for clearing and restructuring, so before you knock it, try it. It's fun to learn something new, plus, I am telling you - they work!</p><p><br></p><p>You do not need to have any experience with meditation or with Kundalini Yoga to practice this kryia. In this session I teach it from square one, nice and slow. Through regular practice you can eventually start this session after the tutorial to practice with me, or you can set a timer on your own!</p><p><br></p><p>I integrate a lot of Kundalini into my practices, but today we pay respect to the Kundalini tradition by learning one of the most well known Kundalini Kriyas taught by the father of the practice, Yogi Bhjan to reorient the mind and open us up to the possibility of transformational change.</p><p><br></p><p>Practice this meditation when you needing to move things along, when you feel stuck in a toxic thought pattern, when you are noticing addictive behavior, or when seeking a little energy to do the things that have been on your manifestation wishlist for some time.</p><p><br></p><p>Commit to doing this regularly and no doubt, you will notice a shift.</p><p><br></p><p>The dance of the hand movements in this practice represent a full cycle, whether it be in a breath, a day, a life or in the journey of processing something meaningful or traumatic.</p><p><br></p><p>The importance of the mudras and sounds used in this practice are:</p><ul><li>SA with index finger, represents the infinite, birth, the beginning, the totality of everything that exists! </li><li>TA with the middle finger, represents living life, the complexities, the “messy middle” and existence and creativity that manifests from the previous chapter. </li><li>NA with the ring finger, is death, inevitable change and the transformation of consciousness. </li><li>MA with the pinky finger, is rebirth, regeneration and resurrection which allows us to consciously accept and experience the joy of the infinite.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Yogi Bhajan once said that this is the most important foundation for students of meditation and that if you can do only one meditation, this is it.</p><p><br></p><p>Thank for always being willing to learn new things, keep an open mind, and continue trusting the process around and within Finding What Feels Good.</p><p><br></p><p>I hope you enjoy this session!</p><p><br></p><p>I'd like to thank my assistant, Benji, for bringing such a nice aura to set. ;)</p><p><br></p><p>Sat Nam, </p><p>Adriene</p>

This was a lot of fun! I’d love to learn a breathing strategy for this... might sound silly but I find it difficult to breathe and chant at the same time 😂

Hi Adriene. I have a real problem doing any type of kundalini yoga after watching the documentary about Yogi Bahjan. If you have some thoughts on why you continue to adventist for his yoga, I would rally like to hear it. I respect you and love your yoga, so I would love to get some understanding and peace around this subject 🙏❤

First time doing a Kundalini meditation and it touched me so much that tears started to flow. I wasn’t sure if this was normal so I looked it up and apparently crying during kundalini yoga = an emotional release, a washing clean, an opening of the heart, a sighing of the soul.

<p>Disclaimer: I’m not a doctor. lol Did this every day for a week or two after reading <em>Breath</em> by James Nestor, which references this traditional kriya. It was amazing how much less “clogged” I felt overall by relaxing my body through breath control, via mantra, after a few days. There are no miracle cures for anything, but I feel if research on this type of mindfulness practice is continued, there will be more “hard science” to back up what we already *know*. All this to say: if you struggle with sleep apnea, snoring, sinuses, allergies, inflammation, etc., try doing this for a few days in a row and see what happens! I felt more energized and clear-headed, and it seemed to help me with my circadian rhythm and reflux. I learned before a surgery that I have a slight wheeze in my lungs. Covid was rough on me. Wonder if anyone has tried this as I have?</p>
