Guest guest Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Ouch! Yes Omar, Your body is telling you that there are some hard blockages in your second. This is why the Hatha Yoga is working. As you do the Yoga and I suggest that you do, really get into the postures and breath into them holding the posture as long as possible and then resting briefly before moving into the next posture. Selena is a Yoga instructor and her bright inquisitive eye might possibly be turned to you with regard to the Yoga. Please try not to mix the Yogi Bhajan techniques and what is approached here. Feel if one or the other is helpful or not. Mixing can sometime cause amplification as certain areas are double dosed. Stand up against a wall, back to the wall, and gently bend over and try to touch your toes keeping your knees straight, dont strain. Stay in this position and breathe as deeply as you can you will feel yourself beginning to relax in the sacral areas. Also do the forgiveness's, I know that because of the blockage certain anxieties and anger and uncertainties are being amplified. And not being released. So do your best to go into this area and relax it and release the emotions. As far as the medications go. I am not an MD, so I cannot say do this or that. I can tell you what I would do if it was happening to me. I would stop all medications slowly and gently allowing my body a chance to gently disengage those forces. I would feel that they were a large part of the IBS problem, Chemical blockages induced to cover up a psychiatric issue by smothering the symptom with chemical numbness but not treating for the actual issue. Kind of like numbing the pain of a broken leg without setting it and calling it " healed and released " because the pain is gone. No pain but hard to walk with. So I would stop the medications and stop the energetic stimulation for the moment all of them except the Yoga which is more of a preparation for increased and spread out flows. Do you understand? This is what I would do. Let me know if you feel this is appropriate for you and we will continue - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Omar, From what you say, it sounds like both your root and second chakra have blockages--and possibly your feet, too. Hatha yoga should help; if you have a chance, go for walks in nature; keep your diet as natural and organic as possible, and drink plenty of water. Meditating on the earth energy in your first and the water energy in your second can help a lot. Mula bandha should be avoided, since it might increase the congestion between root and second chakra. Here is a list of asanas that help with the kind of blockage you have: Trikonasana Parsvakonasana Virabhadrasana I and II Parivrtta Trikonasana Parivrtta Parsvakonasana Parsvottanasana Twists Sarvangasana You can find detailed descriptions of the poses in the yoga journal website.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Selena, I am on it, I will do all the adviced practises until my body tells me I am ready to start activating the Kundalini again, I don't think that will be soon, but I don't care as long a I would have a safe one, I will also merge the asanas you mentioned with a classic yoga program I learned in a local class, thanks a lot and take good care.

Omar: it is a very old message, but I have been doing your advice above, and I am not sure I am doing it right since I have no reference to this kind of meditation, can you explain how it is done please?, I appreciate your help again. and hey!! I am finally stopping the meds by myself, Chrism, gradually and very slowly, you were right, I don't feel I need psychiatry anymore, it was a big lie to think I even needed it in the first place, I am hyper active a little, and I don't concentrate in work, but over all I am much better than the date I sent the original message for this subject. however I don't advice everybody to stop psych-meds by himself, unless they have an amount of what they call sensory intelligence, and to be able to feel and understand what their body is trying to tell them.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Hi Omar, I don't remember the context of my suggestion (usually it's a better idea to work on all the chakras instead of just a couple of them). Anyway, the technique consists in visualizing the appropriate colors for each chakra while doing mental repetitions of the respective bija-mantras ( " lam " for root and " vam " for second chakra) and imagining/experiencing the qualities of the elemental energies contained in each chakra.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Congratulations Omar! Happy to read that. Yes a bit hyperactive doesn't mean anything except you have a bit more energy to put into the pursuit of your life. I too am a bit hyperactive. But only when driving long distances (heh). We are blessed to have Selena with us are we not? She is a jewel in the lotus. We are a very rich group to have such members - blessings Omar - chrism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
