Summer "Light, Lively and Balanced" theme

For the summer, I'm trying a new format in place of the evening classes. Knowing that not everyone can do Monday mornings but that summer is a busy time of travel and activities, I've added one Sunday a month to give you an anchor support and a time for connection.

Last Sunday Summer Class:

• August 15

NEW Audio Yoga Classes

For those times you can't make a live class, are traveling on the road, or simply want more yoga in your weekly routine, audio classes to download onto your computer or MP3 player can help meet your needs!

Currently there are seven classes available with illustrations, special instruction sections, music, and a track format to allow you to jump straight to the kriya or meditation, and one more class that is just awaiting the music track from a special musician.

I invite you to check out all the details and experience how the Audio Yoga Classes can help provide regular home support for your self care.

What is Kundalini Yoga as Taught by Yogi Bhajan?

Kundalini Yoga is the yoga of awareness and the science and technology of energy.

The Kundalini energy is the energy of the soul and your creative potential. It is something that already exists within you but is simply waiting to be awakened and utilized. To release this energy from it's dormant state and live in alignment with your fullest potential, your Infinite Self, you can utilize this time-tested and effective technology.

At times it can be aerobic, at times it can be quiet and reflective, but it is always a unique and uplifting experience. Kundalini Yoga is done in specific sets called Kriyas. These sets combine poses and exercises to create a specific, cumulative effect. Because of the composite and balanced effect, it is important to follow the integrity of the set and not add, delete or change the order of the exercises or alter the time ratio of the sequence. There are literally hundreds of different sets and meditations each geared towards a unique focus but which all have the common goal of balancing the chakras and bringing healing and harmony to the bodymind.

To gain a full appreciation of the depth and possibilities within Kundalini Yoga, I recommend you try at least three separate classes or kriyas.

Who Can Do Kundalini Yoga?

Everyone! Kundalini Yoga is the ultimate expansion tool designed specifically for busy householders like you!

If you can breathe and lean in the right direction of the exercise, you will get benefits! No particular level of physical fitness is necessary. Since you can only be where you are in any given moment, you start wherever you're at and build from there.

The key is to listen to your inner wisdom and only do your best. Your best is not perfection or doing the ideal of the pose. Your best is the balance point between being lazy and being fanatical. It is accepting where you are in each moment and doing what you are fully capable of in that time and space...no more, no less.

I also use Kundalini yoga sets and meditations as one resource in my individual BodyMind coaching sessions to assist individuals in releasing habitual and dysfunctional patterns stored in the tissue memory, in the neurological brain pathways, and in the energetic subtle bodies.

How Kundalini Yoga Works

Kundalini yoga awakens energy and builds flexibility, endurance and awareness by using:

• breath
• posture
• mantra (specific sounds which tap into various frequencies of energy
• mudra (specific hand positions)

Working below the surface, it balances the glandular system, strengthens the nervous system and enables you to control your mind rather than allowing yourself to be controlled by your thoughts and feelings.

Although both Kundalini Yoga and Hatha Yoga can achieve the same end goal of uniting your finite self with your Infinite Self, Kundalini Yoga takes you on the fast track and gives powerful results in a short time. It is yoga designed for the busy householder juggling all the pieces of life so it needs to work fast!

Benefits of Kundalini Yoga

Practicing Kundalini yoga affects the whole bodymind.

The internal changes from yoga persist throughout the day and are reflected by positive changes in your mood and behavior. In as little as only 3 Minutes, you can get positive results.

• 3 Minutes = Increased blood circulation begins, distributing enhanced endocrine secretions in the body.
• 7 Minutes = Brain Patterns begin to shift and the magnetic field surrounding the body increases in strength.
• 11 Minutes = The nervous system begins to clear.
• 22 Minutes = The subconscious mind begins to clear.
• 31 Minutes = Endocrine secretions are totally balanced as is the energy of the chakras.

What to Bring to Class

No specific equipment or clothing is required.

• Wear loose clothing or exercise clothes.
• Bring an exercise pad, mat or natural fiber blanket. I have pillows for support if you require bolstering; however, if you have a specific pillow prop you favor, bring it as well.
• Lastly, I recommend that you bring a bottle of water to drink for during and after the class.
