Re: [Kundalini Yoga] Breathwalk [was - I'm back! And it's like coming home.

 

Back ward walking can be included in walking meditation. It is ten times more
effective than forward walking as other musles are involved in backward walking.
ten steps equal hundred steps.

Hello
I used to do Breathwalk (and thank you for bringing it back to my
consciousness).

Fairly simple: I never read the book, but was instructed by the book's author -
Walking. Let's start with the left foot -altho you could start with the right.
As you place the left foot down inhale, silently say SAT, right foot- TA,
left-NA, right - MA. Each of these 4 beats is an inhale. Then exhale in 4 beats,
also corresponding with left foot - right foot- left -right, exhale and say
aloud in 4 beats wa-he-gu-ru.

Do this for 5 minutes, then just walk for 3 min or so, then repeat 5 minutes of
chanting, until you have done four 5-min sessions.
This is the way it was told to me.

When I used to do it, sometimes I would go over 5 minutes and do it for 10
minutes.

I found it very relaxing, and now that you have brought it up, I've got to
remember to do it again.

Hope this helps.

sat nam,
Kartar Kaur

PS I enjoyed reading everyone's responses to my post. I very much agree that -
at least for some people - Kundalini Yoga is a must, and must be a part of daily
life - altho I am still striving to accomplish that.
