Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 In AA we have a practice of checking an idea with another alcoholic. I am applying the same principal here in checking this thought with the wisdom of this group. A woman I am helping has practiced KY, although has not for a number of years. She has recently resumed a Siddha (sp) yoga meditation practice. She is also diagnosed and taking medication for manic depression. As she was talking about her experiences her focus seemed to be on the energy she felt with the awakening of the Kundalini and I almost felt the manic in her as she was describing her experience. My intuition says to start her with some first chakra sets and long deep breathing to bring her back to earth. This is the first time that I have had a very strong sense of suggesting a particular practice to another human being and I'd love to have suggestions.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 Sat Nam Joan, that is one of the beauties of this group is that we do share our thoughts & suggestions...we learn from each other...smiles I love how you felt so strongly on what you feel you should share with this woman & I feel that intuitively we do know what we need to do, so personally I say right on sister, follow your instincts (: & yes I could see where you would feel like starting at the root would be a good place to start,because it is important to have our "roots" planted firmly in the ground to stay grounded...& like you said, bring her back to earth...& yeah personally I too would suggest long,slow,deep alternate nostril breath (minimum of 3 min to start)... even working on the first three (the lower triangle)you could also consider... also, do her numerology & this will also give some insight & share some suggestions on things she needs to work on that you can suggest to her... ex: I have a student who has manic episodes & in her chart was suggested that she do Warrior Pose, which for her has helped tremendously so that she feels that she can handle whatever life throws her way (her words)smiles... bless you, Jiwan Shakti --- joan richards <joancarol wrote: > In AA we have a practice of checking an idea with > another alcoholic. > I am applying the same principal here in checking > this thought with the > wisdom of this group.
