Kundalini Yoga

What is Kundalini Yoga?

Kundalini Yoga is referred to as the Yoga of Awareness. It is the form of yoga offered for all adult classes with DeLora (Sat Avtar), your registered, certified Kundalini yoga teacher. Kundalini Yoga, which has a thousands of years old history in India, has been in the United States since about 1969. It is very powerful form of yoga incorporating both physical and meditative components.

Kundalini Yoga links breath with movement to help you build a harmony between body, senses, and mind. Classes start with 10-20 minutes of warm-up exercises to prepare you for the yoga sets (called "Kriyas" in Kundalini yoga), which are a combination of physical postures (asanas), breath-work (pranayama), mudras (yoga for your hands), and a meditative mindset. Combined together, these components can lead to a happier, healthier self.

What can Kundalini Yoga do for me?
Kundalini can help you improve your physical health. The postures and movements used can assist you in:

• building a strong immune system
• cleansing and building the health of your glandular system
• nurturing a strong nervous system
• improving circulation
• improving sleep
• increasing flexibility

Your physical health is dependent not just on your body, but also your mind. Kundalini offers a path to happiness and emotional wellness also, helping you to develop your intuition and increase your creativity, to uncover what is important to you, helping you break bad habits and replace them with healthy ones.
