Kundalini Awakening
by John Selby
In many circles say the word kundalini and a hush descends. To be sure, it’s a no-no word. I suppose the first time I heard it was when a friend of mine was taking a kundalini yoga class and she mentioned this in a psychic awareness workshop I was attending. Well, at the mention of the word, the facilitator became very serious and warned my friend to drop the class at once.
The room was then abuzz with everyone exchanging stories about how they know someone whose best friend went crazy from a kundalini experience. And so for the longest time I heeded those warnings and considered it something taboo and not to be messed with.
When I started working as an energy practitioner, I studied the chakra system and it seemed like the k-word continually cropped up. Intrigued but ever cautious, I felt compelled to learn more about this feared energy.
Many of the books on kundalini don’t do much to dispel the myths – or in fact to explain what kundalini energy is and why it is so important in spiritual development. And this is what makes John Selby’s Kundalini Awakening such a valuable book to read and to work through.
Mr. Selby offers an easy-to-understand, practical and non-esoteric approach to balancing the chakras and working with the energy that powers them (also known as kundalini). He holds your hand reassuringly as he explains each exercise. He then provides step-by-step summaries for quick reference.
Throughout his book, Mr. Selby preaches all things in moderation. So if you’re looking for a big bang approach to spirituality, then you can give this book a miss. However, if you are looking for core meditative techniques to quiet the mind and discover what expanded consciousness is, this is your book.
Best of all, Mr. Selby appreciates the hectic lifestyle so many of us have today. Accordingly, he offers a range of meditations lasting from seven breaths to several hours. There really is something for everyone here.
Kundalini meditation need not be feared. It can be a safe, gentle and fun way to find out who you are and why you are here.
Kundalini Awakeningis available at Amazon.
