EXPERIENCE THE
POWER OF KUNDALINI YOGA!
Prana-Apana
Balance
What
will it do for you?
This
kriya is delicate and subtle in its many effects. When the energies
of prana and apana are properly mixed, the power of the Kundalini
can be released. This set is carefully designed to mix prana and
apana at the navel point.
How
to do it:
1)
Sit gracefully in Celibate
Pose between calves and ankles, for 2 minutes, with hands
relaxed on thighs, breathing normally. |
|
 |
2)
Then stretch arms out to the sides parallel to the ground,
palms up. Inhale for 6 counts, arising to a kneeling position.
Hold position and the breath for 12 counts. Slowly exhale
in 6 counts, lower buttocks down to floor.
Repeat
7 times and on the 8th time, clap hands overhead.
|
| 3)
Lie on the back with hands at sides, and raise the legs 1.5
feet off the ground, pedaling them in a bicycling motion,
and keeping them parallel to the ground, for 2.5 minutes.
THIS EXERCISE MUST ALWAYS FOLLOW THE PRECEDING ONE.
|
|
 |
(Exercises
1, 2 & 3 stimulate sexual, eliminative and navel energies,
and complete the mixing of prana and apana at the navel
point.)
4)
Immediately inhale and raise the legs to 90°, hold for
30 seconds. Slowly exhale and lower the legs.
|
5)
Still on back, lift the legs 6" off the ground and hold
with Breath
of Fire for 1 minute. Inhale, hold, and then relax.
|
|
 |
6)
On the stomach, clasp hands in Venus Lock in back, inhale
powerfully and arch the spine up from the waist, with the
eyes closed. Hold for 30 seconds.
|
|
Then,
exhaling powerfully, lower torso and open the eyes. Repeat
this cycle 10 times. (If you keep your eyes open, it can
cause temporary dizziness as you rebalance.)
This
exercise allows the expansive heart to dominate in your
attitudes.
|
| 7)
On the back, raise arms straight up to 90°, palms facing
each other, and hold with Breath of Fire for 1 minute. Then
inhale, and with great tension make fists, clench teeth and
slowly pull energy and fists down to the chest. Exhale and
repeat once more. |
|
| Exercise
7 eliminates a lot of pent-up anger hiding in the form of
muscle tension. 5, 6 & 7 focus on the higher chakras and
on pranic force at the eyes and heart. |
 |
8) Relax. Move the mind to the navel point and listen
to the heartbeat there.
Feel
that you are at home, resting at the center of yourself. The
heart rhythm is powered by the cosmic, creative sound of "Ong,
Ong, Ong". This will levitate you and give you mental
relaxation and sensitivity. |
