Sunday Yoga

Hello All! 

For those of you who did not know-I have been teaching Kundalini Yoga for the last couple of years. I spent the years of the Pandemic studying with Yogamu organization located in India, and I fell in love with my Instructors Nikolai & Deepok, their sweet Souls and their integrity & love for Yoga. I still study with them currently, taking my Yoga practice & teachings to a higher level than I thought I could. I am grateful that the Angels made this possible for me, although I was a bit shocked when the Intention that I set for bringing Yoga into my healing center manifested as me being the Instructor! It has been an honor to witness my fellow Yogis grow confidence in their Kriyas, Pranayama, Mudras & Chanting. There are no fast movements (except Breath of Fire) in Kundalini Kriyas, and it based on the original Yoga, which is Hatha Yoga, combined with Breathwork, hand positions known as Mudras and beautiful Chanting.  I feel the need to write about this due to the recent controversy regarding Kundalini Yoga & Yogi Bhajan, which since I was not involved in his teachings, I do not know the real truths & will not judge or assume anything about it. Instead, I pray for those who went through his program and were highly affected by it-both positively and negatively. I can only hope that they still have a love for Yoga and can heal from any wrongdoings that occurred.  Although his own style of Kundalini Yoga is much different from the original brought forward by Swami Vivekananda, it does have benefits as well. If you practice Kriyas from Yogi Bhajan Instructors, I ask that you dig deep before you dump your practice-if it has made a positive shift in your life & you remain unaffected by it all, keep going. There are also some great Instructors on YouTube that have integrated his Kriyas into their work-Brett Larkin, Allie Von Fossen to name a couple of them!
