Guest guest Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Sat Nam everyone, I need help please, I have social phobia, I know that labeling myself like that is a superficial thing and all, but it is the easiest way to describe my personal bit of misery. I am 33 years old and I had to deal with a life that has little or no love and little or no light and positive energy, I had no problem with myself, I had both "saintly" and creative characteristics since early childhood but I was always mistreated, misunderstood, used, suppressed, and taken advantage of, I simply became afraid of everyone I meet. when I meet new people I have physical symptoms and I become very anxious, and that happens also when I am around people who are -well- like most other people. I became depressive for 15 years, and I take anti anxiety medications and anti depressants and psycholeptic drugs as prescribed by a doctor, I feel strong tightness in the chest most of the time and also tightness in the second chakra (hence constipation is the norm of my body). It became an even bigger obstacle too that I can't work most of the time and I am just not motivated and work and all daily regular activities seems like hell to me although I love my type of work very much. Is there any Kundalini healing for my suffering? what did Yogi Bhajan say about people who suffer rejection and estrangement because they are different,? what did Yogi Bhajan generally say about relationships of one with others? about giving love to others and life and about receiving it? and about how to heal old wounds? how to deal with anger? does anybody had any similar experiences like mine? please don't reply offline I want to share your opinions. I appreciate any help very much. I was introduced to kundalini yoga and started practising only about a month ago, I do the practise of silence every day for 15 mns., and I also started a meditation to release childhood anger 3 days ago, I do both of them along with a not-so-regular hatha yoga practise, I tried Self Healing meditation as described by Yogi Bhajan in his Physical Wisdom book, and I tried also the Self Renewal Meditation, but my body heat increased and my second chakra was even more tight so I stopped these meditations and limited my practise to the previously mentioned practise, I already feel better and my mind is a little bit more grounded. sorry for the long message. And thanks for the time you took to read it, Namaste. Omar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Dear Omar: My problem was "fear of the world" but it came from the fact that I wanted to attract attention to me, I was craving for attention. That's what generated all the fears and symptoms. Can you relate? If I did yoga to address a personal issue it usually did not work because I was full of my own insanity in the first place! Yoga taught by others was a beautiful answer to me because it took me outside of my insanity and back into the true me. In order to do the Kriyas I had to be willing to give up my moods and fears and judgments and desires and pride: which is what my insanity was (is?) composed of.
