Kundalini yoga – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Posted: at 3:51 am
Kundalini yoga (Sanskrit kualin-yoga ), also known as laya yoga, is a school of yoga. Based on a 1935 treatise by Sivananda Saraswati, kundalini yoga was influenced by the tantra and shakta schools of Hinduism.
Kundalini yoga derives its name through a focus on awakening kundalini energy through regular practice of meditation, pranayama, chanting mantra and yoga asana.[1] Called by practitioners "the yoga of awareness", it aims "to cultivate the creative spiritual potential of a human to uphold values, speak truth, and focus on the compassion and consciousness needed to serve and heal others."[2]
What has become known as "Kundalini yoga" in the 20th century, after a technical term peculiar to this tradition, has otherwise been known[clarification needed] as laya yoga ( ), from the Sanskrit term laya "dissolution, extinction". The Sanskrit adjective kualin means "circular, annular". It does occur as a noun for "a snake" (in the sense "coiled", as in "forming ringlets") in the 12th-century Rajatarangini chronicle (I.2). Kua, a noun with the meaning "bowl, water-pot" is found as the name of a Naga in Mahabharata 1.4828. The feminine kual has the meaning of "ring, bracelet, coil (of a rope)" in Classical Sanskrit, and is used as the name of a "serpent-like" Shakti in Tantrism as early as c. the 11th century, in the aradatilaka.[3] This concept is adopted as kualni as a technical term into Hatha yoga in the 15th century and becomes widely used in the Yoga Upanishads by the 16th century.
The Yoga-Kundalini Upanishad is listed in the Muktika canon of 108 Upanishads. Since this canon was fixed in the year 1656, it is known that the Yoga-Kundalini Upanishad was compiled in the first half of the 17th century at the latest. The Upanishad more likely dates to the 16th century, as do other Sanskrit texts which treat kundalini as a technical term in tantric yoga, such as the a-cakra-nirpana and the Pduk-pacaka. These latter texts were translated in 1919 by John Woodroffe as The Serpent Power: The Secrets of Tantric and Shaktic Yoga In this book, he was the first to identify "Kundalini yoga" as a particular form of Tantrik Yoga, also known as Laya Yoga.
The Yoga-Kundalini and the Yogatattva are closely related texts from the school of Hatha yoga. They both draw heavily on the Yoga Yajnavalkya (c. 13th century),[4] as does the foundational Hatha Yoga Pradipika. They are part of a tendency of syncretism combining the tradition of yoga with other schools of Hindu philosophy during the 15th and 16th centuries. The Yoga-Kundalini Upanishad itself consists of three short chapters; it begins by stating that Chitta (consciousness) is controlled by Vayu (Prana), and Prana is controlled by moderate food, postures and Shakti-Chala (I.1-2). Verses I.3-6 explain the concepts of moderate food and concept, and verse I.7 introduces Kundalini as the name of the Shakti under discussion:
Swami Nigamananda (d. 1935) taught a form of laya yoga which he insisted was not part of Hatha yoga, paving the way of the emergence of "Kundalini yoga" as a distinct school of yoga.
"Kundalini Yoga" is based on the treatise Kundalini Yoga by Sivananda Saraswati, published in 1935. Swami Sivananda (1935) introduced "Kundalini yoga" as a part of Laya yoga.[clarification needed][6] Together with other currents of Hindu revivalism and Neo-Hinduism, Kundalini Yoga became popular in 1960s to 1980s western counterculture.
In 1968 Kundalini Yoga was introduced to the US by Yogi Bhajan who founded the "Healthy, Happy, Holy Organization" (3HO) as a teaching organization. While Yoga practice and philosophy is generally considered a part of Hindu culture, Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan is founded on the principles of Sikh Dharma. Although it adheres to the three pillars of Patanjali's traditional yoga system: discipline, self-awareness and self-dedication (Patanjali Yoga Sutras, II:1), Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan does not condone extremes of asceticism or renunciation. Practitioners are encouraged his students to marry, establish businesses, and be fully engaged in society. Rather than worshiping God, Yogi Bhajan's teachings encourage students to train their mind to experience God.[7] Yogi Bhajan sometimes referred to the Sikh lifestyle as Raj Yoga, the yoga of living detached, yet fully engaged in the world.[7]
In respect of the rigor of his teachings, Yogi Bhajan found kinship with other 20th century Sikh sadhu saints, such as Sant Baba Attar Singh, Sant Baba Nand Singh, and Bhai Randhir Singh. In the outreach of his teachings, Yogi Bhajan's contributions are unparalleled in modern times.[7]:200208
In addition to inspiring the founding numerous yoga studios and centers of practice across the US, in 1971 Yogi Bhajan launched a pilot program for drug-treatment with two longtime heroin addicts in Washington, D.C. in 1972,[8] and opened a drug-treatment center under the name of "3HO SuperHealth" in 1973 in Tucson, Arizona.

Yoga it is!
Posted: at 3:51 am
SO, what are you doin this summer?
Are you one of those who are on staycation and just chillin at home with the movies you have always wanted to watch for the longest time? Or probably, you are just taking this opportunity to relax and chill with nature around you, while others are touring the hidden wonders of Mindanao (or even the archipelago)? Or the swotty who are taking advanced summer classes?
Or did you know that there is another way to unwind, get in touch with your inner selves, find your balance, and get fit all the at the same time?
The answer yoga it is!
Will Tan meets yoga
Will Tan, one of Manilas best yoga instructors together with Julie Ang, One Yoga Wellness Studios owner, shares how yoga can be fun, relaxing, and physically beneficial.
Before Will practiced yoga, he went through postponing it for the nth time, then 2008 came and for the first time Will attended a yoga studios first anniversary party where his talk to yoga teachers convinced him to start it the next day. One of the yoga teachers asked: Whats the difference between next month and tomorrow? Why not practice now? Why do you have to keep on postponing it?
He started by doing the hot yoga the following day. At first, his involvement in yoga was on and off since practicing it in the middle of a hot summer in Manila seemed absurd.
Things started to change when he found out there are other forms of yoga. In 2010, he fell in love with Vinyasa, the breath synchronized yoga. He could do it anytime, anywhere a fit that he just needed considering his busy work schedule. And since it is easier, his yoga became regular and he did it three to four times a week.
In less than a year, he already wanted to become a yoga teacher. Despite the rarity of studios in Manila which offer yoga teacher training, he found his way to one studio. In November 2011, he finally became one. It's been about six years since Will started the practice, and he has definitely learned more than just mastering the different yoga poses; he has somehow changed.

Fitness Clothing: Yoga And Sports Brand, Lululemon, Comes To UK – Interview And Review
Posted: at 3:51 am
Most famously known for its dedicated yoga followers - and most infamously for its (now-ex) 'fat-shaming' CEO, Chip Wilson - Lululemon has taken the world by storm in one way or another.
First launched in Vancouver in 1998, Lululemon's first shop shared quarters with a yoga studio - and the romance has been going strong ever since. The brand is nestled into the yoga community, offering a varied schedule of fitness and wellbeing events, not just clothing.
Now available in countries across the globe - most recently in London's Covent Garden - Lululemon has spread its wings and now offers products for a range of sports.
We caught up with Amanda Casgar, Lululemon's community manager to find out why British women should be buying into London's new recruit.
What, as a brand, does Lululemon stand for?
lululemon's mission is to elevate the world and we do this by helping to build healthy communities. This commitment is driven by our values of quality, product, integrity, balance, entrepreneurship, greatness, and of course, fun which are lived by our people, are intrinsic to the success of our business, and are also at the heart of our unique company culture.
Everything we do, from the Metta Movement which our grassroots community sustainability program, to our support and partnerships with local yoga and fitness instructors is guided by this commitment and our values.
What sets Lululemon apart from other women's fitness brands?
We will continue to take the market we created to the next level and lead through our unique combination of quality fabric, fit & function.
We believe that function is fashion. When what you are wearing hits on all cylinders quality, fit, function and beauty you dont want to take it off.

Yoga instructor gives tips for busy moms
Posted: at 3:51 am
When Jacqueline Allen, a yoga instructor in Gig Harbor, contributed a chapter to Balance for Busy Moms, she aimed to reach mothers who were struggling to find balance in the midst of chaos.
Now, the book is selling well online and shell be signing copies at Mostly Books from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on May 3.
Allen contributed chapter 25: Out of Chaos Comes Organization. It draws on her experience of seeking solace and structure in yoga while balancing life as the mother of four boys.
In my chapter I talk about being a mother ... and the hectic everyday grind of being a mom, Allen said.
When Allen, 63, was 38, she and a friend decided to give yoga a try and took a class together.
It took all the pain out of my body, Allen said. Yoga just got me centered and balanced.
The practice of yoga has taken off in the United States in the past 20 years, Allen said. She was one of the first yoga instructors in Gig Harbor. She also specializes in reiki and other healing arts. She teaches at Arabellas Landing.
Being a mother is a balancing act. With four boys and nine grandchildren, Allen is well aware of that. But she says that even taking a small break to try some yoga or healing exercises is beneficial to moms and beyond.
Even if its only 20 minutes at home with a video. You dont have to always do a class, she said.
Allen was approached to write something by the editor of the volume, Heather Eden, a fellow life coach. Along with other instructors, Allen participates in coaching on the books website: balanceforbusymoms.com. The book came out March 23. It is available at Amazon.com and at Mostly Books, 3126 Harborview Drive.
