In AA we have a practice of checking an idea with another alcoholic.
I am applying the same principal here in checking this thought with the
wisdom of this group. A woman I am helping has practiced KY, although
has not for a number of years. She has recently resumed a Siddha (sp)
yoga meditation practice. She is also diagnosed and taking medication
for manic depression. As she was talking about her experiences her
focus seemed to be on the energy she felt with the awakening of the
Kundalini and I almost felt the manic in her as she was describing her
experience. My intuition says to start her with some first chakra sets
and long deep breathing to bring her back to earth. This is the first
time that I have had a very strong sense of suggesting a particular
practice to another human being and I'd love to have suggestions.
Sat Nam,
Joan

Sat Nam Joan,
that is one of the beauties of this group is that we
do share our thoughts & suggestions...we learn from
each other...smiles
I love how you felt so strongly on what you feel you
should share with this woman & I feel that intuitively
we do know what we need to do, so personally I say
right on sister, follow your instincts (:
& yes I could see where you would feel like starting
at the root would be a good place to start,because it
is important to have our "roots" planted firmly in the
ground to stay grounded...& like you said, bring her
back to earth...& yeah personally I too would suggest
long,slow,deep alternate nostril breath (minimum of 3
min to start)...
even working on the first three (the lower
triangle)you could also consider...
also, do her numerology & this will also give some
insight & share some suggestions on things she needs
to work on that you can suggest to her...
ex: I have a student who has manic episodes & in her
chart was suggested that she do Warrior Pose, which
for her has helped tremendously so that she feels that
she can handle whatever life throws her way (her
words)smiles...
bless you, Jiwan Shakti
