Guest guest Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 Sat Nam, I've been practicing Kundalini Yoga for about five years, Hatha for nearly twenty. I've noticed that since I've been working on the second, third and fourth chakras, my body is emitting a strange (and strong) body odor that seems to emanate from the entire skin. (Not the armpit.) Showering and deodorant don't stop it. It's like toxins are coming out of my body. It's only a problem in ballet class, since I sweat there a lot, but very embarrassing. I've never had this before. It's similiar to what the body does when menstruating, but it happens when I'm not. I'm hoping it's temporary. I'm 39 and wondering if it's hormonal, since I'm getting closer to menopause, I guess... Oh, I should also add that I've been having huge emotional releases where I feel I'm crying out years of grief and sorrow. Maybe it's connected. Thank you, SatPal Kaur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 5, 2004 Report Share Posted April 5, 2004 Sat Nam Sat Paul Kaur, Sounds to me like you are very much in touch with yourself & that you intuitively know what is happening...smile Toxins & emotions are comming out of your body, which is a good thing. If you'd like to assist this process you may consider doing a "Spring Cleanse" with your body to help pull out & assist with the release of toxins, also drink more water & be gentle with yourself. Have you changed your diet any way? Are you feeling weak? & yes, it could be hormonal too, (I started peri menopause at 38), especially when you mention the emotional releases...one of my first signs was when I started to cry at Hallmark commercials...smile You say also that you have been working with your 2,3,& 4th Chakras...ahhhh, yes...you could also be releasing stuff there too...as you are going thru this process, you may consider keeping a journal too... many blessings, Jiwan Shatki Small Business $15K Web Design Giveaway http://promotions./design_giveaway/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 5, 2004 Report Share Posted April 5, 2004 Dear SatPalKaur, Try zinc. At the first indication of unpleasant body odor use Zinc supplements. Zinc piccoliniate is easiest to absorb. Good luck.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Thank you for the responses. I did eliminate animal protein from my diet about a month and a half ago.I was suprised at the huge loss of blood during my last period. Very unusual for me. But, I'd been working on the second chakra kriyas, and I think they really cleared out my insides. I finally got the courage to cut out coffee, too. I think that may be the culprit. I've switched to green tea, and so far, so good! It seems to happen when I'm around a man who I feel a painful karmic tie with. Tragic love kind of thing. A chemical reaction in my body. Again, the Kundalini Yoga seemed to bring us together to work whatever this is out. It's very painful emotionally, and we've never even dated. Oh well. I keep practicing and hope understanding will come later.. Sat Nam, SatPal Kaur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 10, 2004 Report Share Posted April 10, 2004 Sat Nam SatPal Kaur, I had the same experience when I cleansed my chakras by using Reiki technique. I did not know about Kundalini Yoga at that time. My case was temporary. I used my favoiurite perfume to go out see friends just in case. Also I am a dancer, so I can relate to your concern. When I did my dancing practice with my partner, I used perfume, then he did not notice... I think you are being purified by Kundalini Yoga. Hope the odor will go away soon, God bless you, Kumiko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
