Raising Kundalini
This is the short road. A handful of postures, worked in sequence, that wake the serpent at the base of the spine and walk her up the column before the mind has time to argue. Each lock seals the charge, each twist clears the channel, and by the end the body is quiet enough that meditation opens by itself. Treat it as the doorway it is, the preparation that makes the deep sitting possible.
Pose 1
Table Pose. Squat with the feet 1.5 to 2 feet apart. Pass the upper arms between the thighs and the calves, inside the thighs and outside the calves, and place the hands under the heels. Let the thighs rest on the elbows and keep the spine parallel to the floor. Hold here with long, deep breathing for 2 to 5 minutes. Then inhale, exhale, and apply Mulband. This balances the sex glands.
Pose 2
Sit in Easy Pose and hold onto the shins. Stretch and contract the spine up and down from the base for 2 to 3 minutes. Keep the motion vertical, with no forward and back movement, or pain can rise near the kidneys. Then inhale, exhale, and apply Mulbhand.
Pose 3
Spinal twist using the shoulders. Place the hands on the shoulders, fingers pointing forward and thumbs pointing back. Twist so you feel it at the navel point. Continue for 2 to 3 minutes.
Pose 4
Spinal twist with the palms pressed together overhead and the arms straight up. Continue for 2 to 3 minutes. This works the 9th vertebra. Then inhale, exhale, and pull Mulbhand.
Pose 5
Body Drops. Sit in Lotus Pose if you can, or with the legs stretched out in front. Place the weight on the fists beside the hips, lift the buttocks off the floor, and drop them back down again. Continue for 2 minutes.
Pose 6
With the legs stretched straight out in front, stretch the body forward and relax down, head to the knees, for 2 to 3 minutes. Then inhale, exhale, and pull Mulbhand. 7. In Easy Pose, cross the arms and place the hands on the opposite knees. Inhale deeply, pulling the arms and stretching the shoulders, hold the breath in, then exhale and relax. 8. Finger Lock at the Heart Center with long, deep breathing. Pull hard for 2 to 3 minutes. Then inhale, stretch the arms overhead and hold, exhale and apply Mulbhand. 9. Bow Pose. On the stomach, grab the ankles and arch up, pulling the arms and legs as high as possible. Inhale, stretch up even higher, pull Mulbhand and hold. 10. Meditation. Fix the
