3 Kundalini Meditations I Love [Audio Files + Playlists Included]
Image A Wild Dove
I am often asked what is the best Kundalini meditation to start with and so I thought I would take the time to combine my 3 of my favorites.
I suggest you try all 3, and then pick 1 or more and continue on for 40 days. Don’t Skip a day. I feel it is the most powerful to do it first thing in the morning, but do it when it is best for YOU. I just say, complete it before midnight each day.
Each audio file will lead you through the instructions, tune you in and call you out. So don’t worry about picking up all the instructions in the writings. The written meditations and pictures are all from 3ho.org and KRI
“If your Sadhana is more important to you than your neuroses, you are fine. If your neuroses are more important to you than your Sadhana, you are not.”
START BY TUNING IN
Posture: Sit in Easy Pose with the palms of both hands and fingers are completely touching. The outer edge of the mound of the thumb is pressed into the sternum.

Kundalini Yoga Meditation: Dealing with Your Own Mind
Originally taught by Yogi Bhajan on January 9, 1998

Breath: Close off your right nostril with your right thumb and inhale deeply through your left nostril. Exhale completely through your mouth.

Time: Continue for 6 minutes.
To End: Inhale deeply, interlace your fingers and stretch them over your head palms up. Hold your breath for 10-15 seconds while you stretch your spine upward. Exhale and relax.
Mind is a link between Infinity and you. When the soul got the body, the soul asked God, 'What is my link with you, my Lord?' And God said, 'Mind.'
Mind can take you into any thought, beyond thought, and unto Infinity. Mind can take you into any dungeon, any pit, and any negativity. Mind has no limit in its own self. But mind is your servant. If the mind becomes your master, you don't have a chance. It is very essential in yoga that we know our own mind.

Then a 3 minute WARM UP of cat cow going as fast as you can. This is good to lubricate the spine, and move the energy. It adjusts the spine, strengthens the nervous and reproductive systems, and brings the emotions into balance. It also helps to move energy up the spine to the upper Chakras to enhance meditation. It is one of the most common things to do during morning mediation, to wake up your spine and your Kundalini energy, for vitality all day long.
MANTRA Mentally Inhale SAT Exhale NAM at the end, inhale hold stretching the chest up, exhale, round the back. Go to child's pose, far head and arms on the mat, hands in prayer pose stretched above the head
EYES Closed, focusing on the brow pint, (Third eye)
The cat cow is not part of the mediation, but a nice way to warm up. I will also call out when it is time to change. Please feel free to email with any questions.

This is a complete set. It is called Sobagh Kriya.
“If there is a misfortune written by the will of God, by doing this set you will make it into good fortune. I'm not saying "man-made." I'm saying if God Himself has written that you shall live under misfortune, by doing Sobagh Kriya you can tum your misfortune into prosperity, good fortune, and good luck.” Yogi Bhajan

KIRTAN KRIYA (Sa Ta Na Ma Meditation)
This is often what I suggest to most people to start with. You can feel the difference in your nervous system immediately! I made an audile file that includes calling you in, and taking you out, You will follow along with the song, saying it out loud at first, then whisper, then silent, then whisper, then out loud.
This meditation brings a total mental balance to the individual psyche. Vibrating on each fingertip alternates the electrical polarities. The index and ring fingers are electrically negative, relative to the other fingers. This causes a balance in the electromagnetic projection of the aura. Practicing this meditation is both a science and an art. It is an art in the way it molds consciousness and in the refinement of sensation and insight it produces. It is a science in the tested certainty of the results each technique produces.
Posture: Sit straight in Easy Pose.
Eyes: Meditate at the Brow Point.
Mantra: Produce the five primal sounds (panj shabd): S, T, N, M, A, in the original word form:
SAA: Infinity, cosmos, beginning
TAA: Life, existence
NAA: Death, change, transformation
MAA: Rebirth
Each repetition of the entire mantra takes 3 to 4 seconds. This is the cycle of Creation. From the Infinite comes life and individual existence. From life comes death or change. From death comes the rebirth of consciousnes to the joy of the Infinite through which compassion leads back to life.

Mudra: This mantra can be done in many different mudras. Most common is to begin in Gyan Mudra. The elbows are straight while chanting, and the mudra changes as each fingertip touches in turn the tip of the thumb with firm pressure.
On SAA, touch the first (Jupiter) finger.
On TAA, touch the second (Saturn) finger.
On NAA, touch the third (Sun) finger.
On MAA, touch the fourth (Mercury) finger.
Chant in three languages of consicousness:
Human: normal or loud voice (the world)
Lovers: strong whisper (longing to belong)
Divine: mentally; silent (Infinity)
To End: Follow with one 1 minute of stretching the arms over your head and spreading the fingers wide, shaking them out, circulating the energy, inhaling and exhaling 3 times. Relax.
Comments: Each time the mudra is closed by joining the thumb with a finger, the ego “seals” the effect of that mudra in the consciousness. The effects are as follows:
1st finger: Gyan Mudra Knowledge
2nd finger: Shuni Mudra Wisdom, intelligence, patience
3rd finger: Surya Mudra Vitality, energy of life
4th finger: Buddhi Mudra Ability to communicate

Please let me know how it goes!
If you enjoy the ritual and meditations that I share, I invite you to join me and a small group of like minded souls to go a little deeper. Holidays can be stressful and I thought it was a perfect time to offer a little more support and guidance. This will be a very small group (there are only a few spots left) and everyone will have the opportunity to be heard from. This is not something you will want to miss. And for Black Friday you can get 20% off by using code GRATEFUL on the group.
Instead of waiting for New Years to ask yourself the big questions, have you ever wondered what would happen if you didn't wait? What if you could describe yourself instead asrefreshed, grounded, light, and resilient? If you had all the tools that helped you to no longer have the Sunday Scaries?What if you started to feel these things now? Ask yourself:
Are destructive emotions and negative energies holding you back from living each day in peace, passion, and love?
Do tensions, thoughts, and emotions make every day feel like an emotional rollercoaster you'd like to step off of?
Do you want tools that you can always turn to to take your thoughts in the right direction?
If you answered yes to any of these, here is your reminder that you don't have to go through the holidays alone with your stress. THERE ARE ONLY A FEW SPOTS LEFT TO Shift Your Consciousness.
If you’re ready to unblock and release patterns that have been holding you back and want a little extra guidance, I would love to see you in New York City in person, or virtually anywhere Schedule a time here. Looking forward to connecting!
