Kundalini energy is often depicted as a serpent, coiled three-and-a-half times around, resting at the base of the spine. This serpent represents the journey of the mind from human consciousness to cosmic consciousness.
Although this course focuses mostly on the teachings of Tantra and Kundalini yoga, Kundalini can be awakened in many ways, such as: from a guru to a disciple, through ecstatic dance, devotional chanting, the use of mantras, rhythmic breathing, and movement, or a variety of other techniques and practices and in some cases, completely unintentionally (a phenomenon known as “spontaneous” Kundalini awakening).
When activated, there are few things that can accelerate your spiritual awakening faster than tapping into this divine feminine force within you called Kundalini shakti. You rise up to the highest realms to connect your energy (Shakti) with pure consciousness (Shiva) to unite as one. This is called ‘The Dance of Shiva and Shakti’. Your mind and body are flooded with divine light, and you gain access to vast intelligence.
Awakening your Kundalini can have a profound impact on your personal magnetism, creativity, and ability to motivate others. You also experience massive shifts in relation to your emotions, reactions, and desires.
The purpose of awakening the Kundalini energy is to purify and prepare your body, mind, and spirit to welcome the divine into your life and then embody and express that divinity in every moment.
When Kundalini energy is awakened, you become an observer. You recognize the illusions, and drama is replaced by a deep sense of peace. You are continuously aware of your center and your stability.
Awakening the Kundalini energy frees your spirit to transcend the body-consciousness of the ego and align with Shiva-consciousness. You’ll feel empowered and confident, and more joyously and passionately alive than you ever have before.
In this course, I will guide you through the fundamentals of both the eastern and western philosophies for a full understanding of these topics. I also share my personal experience with Kundalini awakening so that you may know what to expect and better understand your own experience.
Each lesson builds harmoniously upon the previous ones. You’ll develop a complete understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to experience the bliss of inner awakening.
Awakening your Kundalini energy truly is a life-changing experience and is not for the faint of heart. Yes, it can bring you a sense of peace, joy, and even bliss but it is also an intense experience. It’s a rebirth, and because of that, I feel it’s my responsibility to prepare you for that before you set out on this journey.
I know I keep using the word ‘experience’ but it’s so much more than that. If you’re simply seeking an experience, I don’t recommend you take this course but if you’re serious about awakening, knowing and living your purpose, and living a life filled with health, balance, confidence, and love, you’ve come to the right place.
