Kundalini Yoga and Meditation strengthens the nervous system, balances the glands, purifies the blood, and cleans out subconscious thought patterns. This practice gives you greater awareness and ability to choose how you respond to your thoughts and feelings.

The practice of Kundalini Yoga develops the power of the intuitive mind and takes you out of the cycle of karma. Your positive intention to grow and put yourself through Kundalini kriyas (exercises) burns off karma. The more you practice, the more present, conscious, and intuitive you become. Walk the path of dharma (conscious living) rather than living in response to your karma (the results of your past actions). Kundalini Yoga also fortifies and expands your electromagnetic field, or aura (the energy field that surrounds you and alerts you to positive and negative influences in your environment).

Kundalini Yoga gives you an experience of who you are when the grip of ego is released. With this practice you have the opportunity to create a strong connection to your soul and your soul’s work in this lifetime.

Structure:

- Warm-up exercises/ pranayama/ chanting (15 min)

- Kundalini Kriya (35 min)

- Savasana (11 min)

- Meditation (11 min)

- Closing song and blessing (3 min)
