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

 

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.
