advice for a therapist

[Guest guest]

Sat Nam!

 

I am seeing a young man in therapy who suffers from epilepsy -- had a grand

mal seizure 3 weeks ago. He is under the care of a neurologist and an MD

and is not really interested in yoga, but he did do the left nostril

breathing I suggested to him to improve his sleep and it worked. He is

under a tremendous amount of pressure, financial and other, and he seems to

be coping by playing on the computer quite a bit, a choice that seems pretty

reasonable, given his circumstances.

 

My question is this -- I'd like to give him some more small suggestions like

the left nostril breathing that could lower his stress level and improve his

heart energy. Can anybody make any suggestions to help him improve his

heart energy and overall stress level -- he has told me he's not interested

in attending any classes.....

 

The other piece of advice is for me. I have been doing the "aquarian

sadhana" I heard about -- Sat Kriya (11 mins) followed by Kirtan Kriya (31

mins) followed by Sodarshan Chakra Kriya (11 mins). I had some pretty

positive results in doing this for a while and decided to do it for 1000

days at 11 mins per kriya. However, for the past couple of months I have

felt that I need to make some refinements and I'm wondering if anyone has

any ideas on the practice -- for instance, the other day I noticed when

chanting "nam" that I was feeling the energy stretch across my eyes and

during the "sat" feeling it rising. Should I encourage this kind of

impulse? Any tips from veterans? The sodarshan seems especially to be in

need of tweaking -- I get so distracted when doing it!

 

Love and Light to all, and thanks for reading this posting,
