Achieving Astral Projection Through Kundalini Yoga



We have discussed the methodology to achieve astral projection in previous posts, but there is one method in particular that awakens an inner power that everyone has to make astral projection much easier to attain, using yogic principles. This is done through the practice of Kundalini Yoga.


What is kundalini?

The kundalini, literally translated as “the curl of the lock of hair of the beloved,” is known as the sacred energy everyone has inside the deepest parts of their subconscious. This powerful energy, governed by the root chakra, is connected to all other energies of the body and is often seen as a living energy being coiled at the base of the spine, dormant in most people. This is why it is also known as the “serpent power.” When awakened, the kundalini aligns the other chakras in perfect balance and gives the person mental and spiritual harmony. Closely tied to Indian cultures since ancient times, Kundalini is rooted in a form of Hinduism.

But this power is not something to be trifled with and taken casually. Awakening the kundalini is an intense experience and as with any intense experience there are risks if the person doing it is reckless. Symptoms include possible headaches after each awakening experience, to being too hyperactive from the intense release of energy that the practitioner is not ready for. This is due to the fact that the practitioner might not be strong enough or mature enough to handle the kundalini, usually happening when the practitioner rushes the practice in order to achieve the results fast. As with all things, patience and discipline are key.


How does it help achieve astral projection better?

The benefits of having an awakened kundalini are vast, including having everything from a higher IQ, becoming physically and mentally stronger, improved sexual capability and attraction, increased wisdom and spiritual sense, and in higher levels, achieving psychic abilities, slowing the aging process, and the aforementioned better capability of achieving astral projection.

This is due to the fact that the kundalini being awakened unleashes astral energy that makes the astral body more attuned to the astral plane. As such, awakening the kundalini makes performing the techniques to achieve astral projection much easier to pull off.

So how does one awaken the kundalini? There are a number of different ways, but one of the most popular nowadays is Kundalini Yoga.

The Ayurveda Experience will give you the insights to live a healthier, happier life!

What is Kundalini Yoga?

Originating in the Kashmir region, Kundalini Yoga, also known as the Yoga of Awareness, was officially presented in the late 1960s in the West as a powerful and spiritual practice, and is considered by its practitioners as the most comprehensive of yoga traditions, combining meditation, mantra, and physical exercises and breathing techniques. It is a universal method, and as such is non denominational and non discriminating.

Stemming from ancient tradition, this form of yoga is a “householder” path, that is, it is designed for people who have families, jobs, and live a normal life, as opposed to the celibate and isolationist path often followed by a traditional yogi.

The primary purpose of this style of yoga is of course to awaken the kundalini, to “awaken the power of the individual to excel—to experience their Infinity and fulfill their personal destiny.”


How is it different from other styles of yoga?

Kundalini yoga is primarily different due to its main objective. However, it is also different in terms of its class components; any Kundalini Yoga class has these six steps: 1) tuning-in with the Adi Mantra, 2) pranayam or warm-up, 3) kriya, 4) relaxation, 5) meditation and 6) close with the blessing song, “May the Long Time Sun Shine Upon You”.

And because it is designed for the householder, it is effective and efficient for most people, and quickly unleashes the power within in a disciplined, calm manner. It draws from the many different techniques of yoga, and it’s a safe way to stimulate the body’s natural resources and become healthy, happy, and holy—in body, mind and spirit.

Our latest binaural beats track for yoga is perfect for your Kundalini Yoga practice and can definitely help awaken your kundalini!


Using binaural beat and isochronic tone frequencies ranging from 4Hz to 7Hz, this is specifically for yoga enthusiasts and meditation practitioners who would like to focus internally without the distractions of a music composition.

What Is Bikram Yoga And What Are Its Benefits



Continuing our series about the different kinds of yoga, this next one is perhaps the hottest one to date, figuratively –being one of the most popular ones with over 1,700 studios around the world- and literally –because it’s done in a room that can reach 105 degrees Farenheit!-. This is the yoga style known as Bikram Yoga.


What Is Bikram Yoga

Founded by Bikram Choudhury in the 1970s, Bikram yoga has a storied history. Born in Calcutta in 1946, Choudhury suffered a knee injury when he was 17 that led Western doctors to believe that he would never walk again. However, having been practicing yoga under Bishnu Ghosh since he was 4 years old, he went back to yoga and found his knee to be healed. This inspired him to found Bikram Yoga, his very own style.

Done in rooms reaching 105 degrees F, Bikram consists of a set of 26 poses and two breathing exercises done at set time intervals over an hour and a half class. The poses were chosen by Choudhury from classic hatha poses and are designed to systematically move fresh, oxygenated blood to 100 percent of your body, to each organ and fiber. The poses which include triangle pose, tree pose, eagle pose and cobra pose, among other common hatha yoga poses  are done in a specific, unchanging order, in order to achieve the desired benefits.

Bikram yoga follows the 80-20 method and the exhalation method of breathing. With the 80-20 method, you take a full breath, assume the pose and continuously exhale 20 percent of the air through the nose. With the exhalation method, you take a full breath and exhale completely when you have assumed the pose, and continue exhaling while you hold the pose. These are very difficult tasks but are sure to give the results needed.

The Ayurveda Experience will give you the insights to live a healthier, happier life!

Benefits of Bikram Yoga

The intense style of Bikram can also yield intense results. Aside from the flexibility and strength gaining benefits typical of many yoga styles, Bikram’s hot rooms which cause sweating can flush toxins out, while strengthening the muscles and joints; this is especially beneficial for those recovering from injuries.

The intense heat that also trains the mind; with students being encouraged to focus on the task at hand rather than the potential discomfort of the room, the mind becomes honed to be more focus and sharper, which translates to everyday life with practitioners being able to keep their cool while under hot pressure, figuratively. This is why Bikram yoga has become very popular with goal oriented, successful people, as they also get to practice keeping their cool in intense situations.


Precautions

While Bikram Yoga can certainly be done by beginners, it is highly recommended that beginners experience an easier yoga style first before trying out Bikram, especially if the beginner has no prior yoga or athletic activity. Always hydrate when practicing, and make sure your mind is ready to undergo a trial by fire, so to speak.


If you want an intense yoga style that will surely make you sweat, then Bikram Yoga is for you. Our latest binaural beats track for yoga is suited for your Bikram Yoga practice and can definitely help get you started!


Using binaural beat and isochronic tone frequencies ranging from 4Hz to 7Hz, this is specifically for yoga enthusiasts and meditation practitioners who would like to focus internally without the distractions of a music composition. The binaural beats will help set your mind into a state of being, as the frequencies are associated with deep meditation, promoting calmness, relaxation and centering. Closely connected to the Anahata (or Heart chakra), this will provide a sense of balance, harmony with the cosmos and the soul.

What Is Dream Yoga, And What Does It Do?



Yoga is a form of physical, mental, and spiritual practice that trains the body, clears the mind, and stokes the spirit. To many, the word yoga is synonymous with stretching, poses, and sometimes, a lot of sweat and effort. But did you know that there is one form of yoga that is totally different from what we normally know? This is dream yoga.


Dream Yoga: A Tibetan Technique

Many people often associate lucid dreaming with dream yoga, sometimes even citing that they are one and the same. While lucid dreaming can be a very powerful and entertaining tool, lucid dreaming will not help a dreamer achieve enlightenment, something that dream yoga seeks to do. While lucid dreams can create negative karma, dream yoga is designed to purify it. Dream yoga is designed to unite you with deeper aspects of your being and is more concerned with self-transcendence.

Tibetan Buddhists developed dream yoga because they believe that every night, instead of falling asleep, one must take the opportunity to “practice waking up.” They believe that the waking life is simply “sleepwalking”, and from someone who is truly awake, the regular person’s mind is still asleep.

Put it simply, dream yoga is a set of meditations that transforms the way we relate to sleep and dream. It starts where lucid dream leaves off. Just like lucid dreaming, the dreamer wakes up inside a dream, but that is where the similarity ends. Instead of doing what they want, the dreamer instead trains the mind, stretching their waking consciousness into the dream state. What this teaches the dreamer is how to “wake up from the dream or nightmare of daily life.”

The whole process aims to follow this path: learning how to remember dreams, learning how to wake up in dreams (lucid dreaming), training the mind in the dream, and finally, learning how to stay awake in a dreamless sleep. All the while taking what you learn from the experience and bringing those lessons to the day, to transform your life through night meditation.

The goal is to wake up, spiritually.
The Ayurveda Experience will give you the insights to live a healthier, happier life!


Interestingly, it is also a good way to prepare for death, according to the experts. The experience of waking up in a dreamless sleep is stated to be similar to the experience of death or dying. By bringing the darkness of ignorance (sleep) into the light of consciousness with dream and sleep yoga, practitioners not only illuminate and eventually eliminate sleep and dream, but also the concept and fear of death.


How To Perform Dream Yoga

The steps to perform dream yoga are very similar to engaging in lucid dreaming. You can find our guides to lucid dreaming in the links below, to start your entry to a controlled dream.

The key difference starts after the dreamer achieves lucidity. And it is very important to remember these guidelines to engage in dream yoga.

1.)    Resist the power – once the dreamer achieves lucidity and recognizes their capability in the dream state, it is important to resist the urge to indulge. Instead of engaging in personal pursuits, the dreamer must keep still and just “feel” the dream.


2.)    Try to be “conscious” – the dreamer must then try to “wake up,” but not in the sense of willing one’s self to escape the dream state. Instead, the dreamer will try to awaken their mind in the sense that they will be more mindful and aware of the dream state, trying to fully recognize and feel everything, instead of just simply experiencing the dream state like a blur or a flurry of images and sensations.

3.)    Meditate, contemplate, reflect – instead of indulging, the dreamer then contemplates various aspects of their lives. This is where the lessons of lucid dreaming come into play. For example, if the dreamer is afraid of something, perhaps a situation in their lives, they can conjure up the scenario in the dream, and instead of simply trying to run away from it, or conquer it, the dreamer tries to understand it, all the while trying to be as aware and “awake” as possible.

Once the dream yoga session is over, whatever lessons and feelings and insights gained within are then brought to the real world, to fully awaken from it.


This binaural beats track for yoga practice can help you get started with it with your dream yoga practice.


Simple, pleasant and soothing yoga music embedded with binaural beats and isochronic tones frequencies that are associated with the feeling of well-being and overall balance and harmony. Bring yourself to a stress-free and tranquil ambiance as you do your daily yoga sessions and enjoy those precious moments as you strengthen your core and your mind, body and spirit. Using frequencies from the alpha range of 10Hz, this enhances the release of serotonin and is universally beneficial for your overall health, giving you a sense of being centered, raises your spiritual consciousness, and can even improve memory, relieve headaches and is connected to the Manipura or Solar plexus chakra. With a carrier frequency of 90Hz, this is also ideal as your background relaxation music or for your meditation sessions.

What Is Vinyasa Yoga And Its Benefits



We previously discussed the overall physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual benefits of yoga, as well as listed down the many different schools of yoga popular today. We already started with the strength-building Ashtanga Yoga, and now we’re going to talk about Vinyasa Yoga, which is also known as Flow Yoga.

What is Vinyasa?

The word Vinyasa roughly translates from Sanskrit to “connection”, but has been known in the yoga circles as "breath-synchronized movement,” as it is known for its connection to movement and breathing. It is composed of a series of poses that will move the practitioner through the power of breathing, of inhaling and exhaling. This school’s movements are smoothly flowing, almost like a dance, which is why it is sometimes called Vinyasa Flow or just Flow Yoga.

Vinyasa Flow began as Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga by a Yogi named Sri Tirumala Krishnamacharya. He was given a place to teach yoga and eventually taught a young boy named Parrabhi Jois his learnings on the power of breathing. Jois then established an institute for practicing the specific form of Vinyasa yoga.

Vinyasa’s strength and what makes it popular is its diversity. Unlike other stricter yoga schools like Ashtanga, there is no single philosophy, rulebook, or sequence that teachers and students must follow in Vinyasa. This gives a lot of room for individual personalities and quirks to manifest. On the downside, it is important that practitioners find a teacher they enjoy and can relate to. But overall, Vinyasa is a good style of yoga for people who feel restricted or bored by specific sets of movements.


The Ayurveda Experience will give you the insights to live a healthier, happier life!
What to expect?

While the style allows for variety, Vinyasa always includes what’s known as sun salutations. A sun salutation is a sequence of moves done in time with an inhalation or an exhalation. It often includes a “vinyasa”, which is a series of three poses done as part of the sun salutation sequence. This includes the plank, the chaturanga, and an upward facing dog, using the breath to measure when to move to the next pose.

The Vinyasa school is all about the movement. Expect lots of movement and not just the stretching. Classes can be fast or slow, can be dependent on alignment or inversions, and so on, depending on the teacher.


What are its benefits?

It will challenge your muscles and joints, but what it will challenge the most are your lungs and heart, as you use them to make the flow go smoother with proper breathing. Physically, Vinyasa will make you sweat, which expels toxins. The constant breathing and increase in heart rate re-energizes your body.

And of course, strengthening the muscles, bones, and joints. Mentally, the synchronized breathing relaxes your mind and helps to release any blockage of energy flow throughout your body. Spiritually, Vinyasa helps realign your chakras, as well as awaken it if it has not been before. Depending on your teacher and the class, certain classes will target the different chakras with specific poses.

If you want a freeflowing, unrestricted yoga experience that’s different with every class Vinyasa is for you. Try Vinyasa yoga out as soon as you can with your friends! This binaural beats track for yoga practice can help you get started with it.


Simple, pleasant and soothing yoga music embedded with binaural beats and isochronic tones frequencies that are associated with the feeling of well-being and overall balance and harmony. Bring yourself to a stress-free and tranquil ambiance as you do your daily yoga sessions and enjoy those precious moments as you strengthen your core and your mind, body and spirit.

What Is Ashtanga Yoga And Its Benefits


As we have discussed in our previous blog post, the benefits of yoga for the mind and the body are numerous, and people should give it a try at some point if they haven’t yet. But there is no one yoga style or school, so it may be difficult to choose which one is the best for you. So it is important to get to know each style available. One of the most popular ones is Ashtanga Yoga, a system that combines a good physical and mental workout with emotional and spiritual balance and well-being.

 
What is Ashtanga Yoga?

Literally translated as “eight-limbed yoga”, Ashtanga yoga is a system of yoga recorded by the sage Vamana Rishi in the Yoga Korunta, an ancient manuscript "said to contain lists of many different groupings of asanas, as well as highly original teachings on vinyasa, drishti, bandhas, mudras, and philosophy" According to sage Patanjali in the Yoga Sutras, Ashtanga is the path of internal purification for revealing the universal self, and consists of eight spiritual practices, namely:
  • Yama or moral codes
  • Niyama or self-purification and learning
  • Asana or proper posture
  • Pranayama or control of breath
  • Pratyahara or control of sense
  • Dharana or focus
  • Dhyana or meditation
  • Samadhi or absorption into the Universal
It is said that the first four limbs are external cleansing practices, and the last four are internal cleansing practices. And while there are some Ashtanga yoga studios that focus mainly on the Asana (simply doing the poses for a workout) to get the full benefit of Ashtanga yoga it is important to tackle all the 8 limbs.

However, as many people will soon find out, practicing the Asana will slowly lead to properly touching the 8 limbs and having a good Ashtanga practice that is physical, mental, and spiritual.

The Ayurveda Experience will give you the insights to live a healthier, happier life!
Ashtanga Yoga Poses

While there are no unique poses specifically for Ashtanga yoga, the practice follows a strict series of yoga poses that is designed to be progressively harder. It is this strict adherence to the routine that makes Ashtanga unique, as each previous pose is meant to be a preparation for the next pose.

Ashtanga always starts with the Surya Namaskar or the sun salutation, which is followed by 6 standing poses that will be the foundation of the other poses. After this will come a four series, which may vary in difficulty depending, and then finally, the finishing positions.

Due to the difficulty and strictness of the practice, it is very important that Ashtanga is done under the strict supervision of a yoga instructor, to prevent injuries and to make sure that the series is followed correctly.


Benefits

All the schools of yoga promote flexibility, mental rejuvenation, and openness of the soul, but very few emphasize physical strength and muscle training. This is where Ashtanga stands out. Ashtanga aims to not only make the practitioner calm of mind and peaceful of soul, but also have a strong, toned, controlled body. Because of its weight management and strength building routine, Ashtanga has become a popular choice of not just yoga practitioners, but also athletes looking to augment their sport by adding flexibility and core strength.

Not only that, because of the strict series and fast pace of the pose changes, it also promotes stamina and endurance. And because it only uses body weight, Ashtanga makes the practitioner stronger but not give a bulky look, instead making the practitioner a lean, toned human being.

On the mental and spiritual side, it is a great stress reliever, especially for goal oriented people, as it takes away the mind from thinking about other things and instead makes the practitioner focus on the series of poses, the fast pace, and be determined to achieve the next pose. Mentally, some scientists have discovered that Ashtanga yoga can be beneficial to patients suffering from conditions that involve the brain, like for example, people who have lower back pain that is caused by mental tension.

Try Ashtanga yoga out as soon as you can with your friends! This binaural beats track for yoga practice can help you get started with it.


Simple, pleasant and soothing yoga music embedded with binaural beats and isochronic tones frequencies that are associated with the feeling of well-being and overall balance and harmony.

How it works? Let us share some of the best (and very simple) yoga work outs that helps to burn calories.

  
Mountain Pose

The Mountain pose or so called Tadasana is usually the starting position for all the standing poses. But it’s useful to practice Tadasana as a pose in itself. Stay in the pose for 30 seconds to 1 minute, breathing easily. It develops correct posture, strengthens your thighs, ankles and feet, and tones your abdominal muscles, and calms and clears your mind and nervous system.
  • Stand with the inner edge of your big toes touching.
  • Align your feet parallel to each other by placing your heels slightly apart, with the second and middle toes pointing forward.  Encourage the toes and bones of your feet to spread and increase in surface area.  Allow your toes to remain soft as you find balance over the four corners of your feet.
  • Feel a gentle grounding of the feet into the earth and allow your thigh muscles to be active without locking the knees. Imagine your sit bones slightly reaching down towards the inside of your heels as the pubic bone slightly lifts towards the navel. Feel a line of energy lifting and lightening your spine through the core, all the way up to the top of the head.
  • Keeps your chin parallel to the floor maintaining length through the neck. Feel a line of balance from the top of your head down through the pelvis.
  • As your gaze remains forward, imagine your chest and shoulder blades equally broad and open. Release your shoulders giving space for the neck as the top of your chest bone lightly lifts. Avoid sending your chest and ribs out and forward. Let your arms drape beside your body naturally. Relax your eyes, tongue and facial muscles. 



Tree Pose

It develops physical and mental balance, strengthens the abdominal muscles and the intestines, helps to keep the abdominal muscles and nerves toned and improving the posture.



Plank Pose 

The Plank Pose will strengthen your arms, wrists, spine and abdomen.
  • Inhale and extend your arms over your head.
  • Exhale as you fold forward.
  • Inhale and look up. (stay in folded position).
  • Exhale and press your palms into the mat. Extend your legs into plank position by walking or jumping backwards.
  • Your body is in a straight line now, heels towards the back of the mat and pointing up, shoulders towards the front of the mat, above your wrists.
  • Breathe fluidly. 

            

Upward-Facing Dog Pose 

It Improves posture, strengthens the spine, arms, wrists; stretches chest and lungs, shoulders, and abdomen; firms the buttocks; stimulates abdominal organs; helps relieve mild depression, fatigue, and sciatica; and therapeutic for asthma.
  • Lie on the floor. Stretch your legs back, with the tops of your feet on the floor. Bend your elbows and spread your palms on the floor beside your waist so that your forearms are relatively perpendicular to the floor.
  • Inhale and press your inner hands firmly into the floor and slightly back, as if you were trying to push yourself forward along the floor. Then straighten your arms and simultaneously lift your torso up and your legs a few inches off the floor on an inhalation. Keep the thighs firm and slightly turned inward, the arms firm and turned out so the elbow creases face forward.
  • Press the tailbone toward the pubis and lift the pubis toward the navel. Narrow the hip points. Firm but don’t harden the buttocks.
  • Firm the shoulder blades against the back and puff the side ribs forward. Lift through the top of the sternum but avoid pushing the front ribs forward, which only hardens the lower back. Look straight ahead or tip the head back slightly, but take care not to compress the back of the neck and harden the throat.
  • Upward-Facing Dog Pose is one of the positions in the traditional Sun Salutation sequence. You can also practice this pose individually, holding it anywhere from 15 to 30 seconds, breathing easily. 



Boat Pose

For this, you have to sit down in a straight yet comfortable position. Spread your legs straight in front of you. Your legs need to be joined to each other. Do not bend your knees. Place your hands besides your body. Now try to move your hands forward & backward. Also, move your body in the same manner as you move your hands. They should move as if you are riding a boat. Do it 10 times in clockwise position & 10 times in anti-clockwise position. And release.



Cobra Pose

In this poition, you have to position yourself into a curved pose which resembles a snake. Sleep on the ground in such a way that your forehead touches the ground. Now place your palms under your shoulders in a manner that it gets tucked close to your body. Stretch your legs in a way that the top of your feet presses down into the mat. Now inhale & slowly press your hands to stretch your arms, sending your chest upwards. This pose looks like a snake & hence it is called the cobra pose or the snake pose.



Trikonasana

Stand straight, separate your feet wide apart. Now turn your right foot out to 90 degrees & left foot out to 15 degrees. Ensure that you body’s weight is balanced equally on both feet. Now bend your body to the right side, downward from the hips. Make sure that you keep your waist straight, thus allowing your left hand to come up in the air and your right hand comes down and touches the ground.  Try to keep both the arms in a straight line. Repeat on the other side. Trikonasana stretches the sides of your body. It tones your arms & thighs. It also improves the flexibility of your body.  



Shirshasana 

Place your hands on the ground in such a manner that you will be able to hold your left arm with the right hand & the right arm with the left hand. Now try to place the crown of your head in between your palms. Now try to take your legs slightly upwards. This is known as Ardha Shirshasana. Try balancing it this way. After you successfully learn balancing, then try to move your legs in the upward direction in a straight line with your body. Remain in this position for 30 seconds & release. Always remember, the right way to come out from any asana is the way you enter into it.



Shoulder Stand Pose 

You have to first lie on a mat & rest your back on the floor. Then you have to try lifting your legs in the upward direction. You can even take the support of your hands for the same. Try to rest your hands on your back so that they can help you remain steady in the position. Now, once your legs are up in the air, try to bring them in a straight alignment with your body & stretch it as much as you can. Stay in this position for 30 seconds & then release.



Halasana

Bring your legs downwards from over your head. Again here, rest the palm of your hands on your back in order to support your position. It strengthens and opens up the neck, shoulders, abs and back muscles, calms the nervous system, reduces stress and fatigue; tones the legs; stimulates the thyroid gland, strengthens the immune system; and helps women during menopause.



Side Plank Pose 

This is a great pose for strengthening and toning the arms, core and legs. It also tests your balance helping to improve focus and concentration. Stand in the Plank position. Now roll both the heels to the right so that the outer foot is touching the floor. Stack the left foot on the right foot. Now press down your right hand and raise the left hand by inhalation. Stay in this pose for about 5 breaths. Now release the pose and get back to plank pose by exhaling.



Fire Fly Pose

This pose combines the arm balance pose and the forward bend, an arm balance and a hip opening pose. Settle into a wide squat. Bring your palms flat on the floor just under your feet.  Shift your weight back to rest on your upper arms and bring the feet off the floor. Straighten the legs and then your arms into the final posture. Hold this asana for 10 seconds daily and build it over time to One minute.



Half Wheel Pose

This is a side stretch and is a great way to melt away those love handles. It is also an excellent way to tone your lateral muscles.


These yoga postures for weight loss can definitely help in losing extra pounds and make you look slimmer. But it is more effective when done along with pranayama. Pranayama is a breathing exercise which involves controlling your breath and of course diet. Diet is an important component while practicing asanas & pranayama for weight loss. One of the best aspects of yoga is that diet is a main part of it. After you have lunch, you can practice yoga after a gap of 4 hours. You have to control your food intake. You also have to follow a specific diet plan which will help in reducing unnecessary calories. Yoga and breathing exercises should always be performed on empty stomach.
