How Do You Do Common Kundalini Meditation Asanas?
All of the common meditation asanas in Kundalini yoga are actually quite easy to perform, yet still possess a number of benefits for the practitioner. It is said that these asanas will quiet the busy mind, stimulate the organs of the body and apply a certain amount of acupressure to the nerve endings. Any skill or fitness level can use these postures to achieve balance and overall relaxation. Take a seat on the yoga mat, drawing the heels of your feet toward the pelvis so your ankles cross and the outsides of your thighs rest on the ground. Straighten your back as if a string is running through your spine and lifting your upper body toward the sky while pressing the lower back forward, letting it arch naturally. Roll back your shoulders, allowing the chest to open up. Let your hands fall to your knees, and your forefinger of each hand curl under its thumb. Pick a focal point in front of you where your eyes naturally fall, and soften your gaze so that you are looking through the point.
