Sat Nam!

I am now working with Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa's Kundalini Yoga DVD. I posted a

question about the Sarah Kline YouTubes and realized today that Gurmukh doesn't

tune in with Ong Namo 3x but only once and doesn't tune out by chanting Sat Nam.

I am taking the time to do this myself. So,this has also got me thinking about

video classes in general. I'm sure most are pressured to keep the classes

within an hour's time. I'm wondering if this means that time in between

exercises isn't as long as normal.

I say this while considering the suspended breath exercises in this DVD. They

occur after strenuous cardio exercises that get you out of breath. I found it

nearly impossible to suspend my breath and pump my stomach while still being a

little out of breath. I'm wondering if there should be more time to recover in

a " real life " situation, or if there is a way to modify until I am able to do

what is asked properly.

 

Be blessed,

Kelli

Yes, sometimes on the dvds, rests are pretty compressed, especially after

something challenging. So do use the pause on your controller as you see fit.

Another thing is the final rest, savasana; they tend to be way too short if

you've really given it 100% Luckily, if you're at home and have the time, you

have the luxury of enjoying a nice little nap! YB said naps are good, so don't

feel guilty at all! Makes me want to go find my blanky right now! The kids won't

be little for long, believe it or not, and you'll have more mobility before you

know it.
