Assistance with energy movement out of the second chakra

January 9, 2009

Hello, I'm having an issue with energy build up around my second chakra

that I am having trouble circulating for some reason. This has been

happening for the last 10 days, and is getting stronger and stronger. I

had been doing Hatha yoga for almost 20 years, but am new two Kundalini

yoga - I've been practicing only two weeks.

I practice 45 minutes of spinal flexibility exercises everyday, as well

as 20 minutes pranayama followed by longer meditation. As I read the

Sat Kriya can help re-circulate this energy up, I've been doing 3-

minute sessions twice a day (which is about as much as I can do at

once) for the last week for this purpose.

It does seem to help move the energy in the immediate sense, but then

it comes back, more frequently and with greater pressure now. It's

beginning to cause me insomnia and nervousness.

Any advice you can give me on this would be much appreciated.

In answer to my own problem...

I contacted my Ayurvedic physician, who gave me a very simple

exercise. Lie down on my back, knees up, feet one foot apart. Right

hand on my navel, left hand on my lower belly. Close eyes, breath into

navel area 10-15 times.

Miraculously worked! After all the other more complex breathing and

poses I had tried to do...sometimes the simplest of things do the trick.
