Daily Practice
This is a kriya that pulls kundalini up the spine before the mind is awake enough to resist. I run it first thing because the body, charged and emptied at dawn, becomes the cleanest instrument for the meditation that follows. The locks and the fire move the energy through the nadis while the day is still soft. Wake the serpent before the world tells you who you are.
Haltung 1
Stand and extend your arms straight out to the sides, pressed slightly back, thumbs pointing straight up. Hold this with Breath of Fire for 2 minutes. Then inhale deeply and slowly raise your arms overhead until the thumbs meet, arching the back. Exhaling, slowly bend forward to touch your toes. This charges the electromagnetic field.
Haltung 2
Sit and spread your legs wide apart. Grab your left foot and lower your head to your left knee, holding with Breath of Fire for 2 minutes. To end, inhale deeply, exhale completely, and pull Mulbhand, holding it as long as you can. Relax, then repeat the whole thing on the right side.
Haltung 3
Locust Pose. Lie on your stomach and place your hands palms down under your thighs (beginners use fists). Inhale as you raise your straight legs as high as possible. Exhale and apply Mulbhand, holding it as long as you can. Repeat and continue for 3 minutes, then relax for 2 minutes.
Haltung 4
Cobra Pose. Concentrating at the third eye, arch your torso up into Cobra. Inhale, then exhale and pull Mulbhand, holding it as long as you can. Repeat and continue for 3 minutes. Relax for 2 minutes.
Haltung 5
Shoulderstand. Lie on your back and raise your legs and hips perpendicular to the floor, supporting them with your hands, the weight resting on your shoulders, neck, and upper arms. Take 3 deep breaths, and on the third exhale apply Mulbhand, kicking your buttocks rapidly with alternate heels for as long as you can. Inhale, repeat, and continue for 3 minutes, resting 2 minutes.
Haltung 6
Sit in Easy Pose, then lie back down with your hands folded in Venus Lock on your stomach. Meditate at the third eye.
