Kundalini yoga is a ‘technology’ based on thousands of years of practice. It has been called the Yoga of Awareness. This transformative style of Yoga helps to balance the nervous and glandular systems; which is why it has been known to help ease anxiety, depression, an overactive mind, restlessness, and hormone imbalance.
Kundalini yoga incorporates asana (postures), pranayama (breath work), mudra (hand gestures) and mantra (chanting). These transformational ancient teachings help to build physical vitality and increase our awareness and consciousness. The kriyas (sets of exercises) work on strengthening your nervous system, balancing your glandular system, purifying the body and calming the mind.
Changes occur quickly because of the depth and inclusive nature of this practice, and people remark that even in their first class they feel a significant shift.
Now is the time to seek balance and vibrant health. You have everything to gain. So what are you waiting for?
Register NowSix awesome reasons to introduce this practice into your life now:
1. Kundalini Yoga helps you gain a strong immune system, strong nervous system, better circulation and balanced endocrine (hormone) system. All of which help you feel stronger, and look and feel younger!
2. A strong and flexible spine is also a big part of this practice. You need a healthy spine as you age. And with a flexible spine you also have a flexible mind.
3. In Kundalini Yoga we often place our focus at the third eye point during our practice (eyes closed). This helps to stimulate our intuition and balance the endocrine system. The pituitary gland controls serotonin levels in the body – so with depression and anxiety prevalent in our society we truly need this for more happiness!
4. You develop your intuition – to have more access to your intuition means you make choices and decisions with more ease and confidence as you move through each phase of your life. And it really supports daily decision-making.
5. We have a short focussed meditation in each class. Science is proving more and more how positively our wellness is affected with this practice. You will feel calm and peaceful with your brain and nervous system balanced. A great night’s sleep is yours after each class!
6. The practice can support the clearing of your subconscious mind; old patterns, traumas, attachments that can keep us stuck begin to clear. You then have a clearer view of your life rather than looking through the lens of what has accumulated in the mind. Let’s look at an iceberg as an example: the 5% we can see is the tip of the iceberg (or the conscious mind) and the 95% that is buried under water can be compared to the subconscious mind. Our subconscious mind is like a database that stores all of our experiences, thoughts, emotions, and memories. We want to be living more from the conscious mind.
