The Mind: A Servant to the Soul
“By conquering your mind, you can conquer the world.” Guru Nanak
June 24th Back to Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan.
We’ve been away from our group practice for so long, let’s get back to some of the
important points and benefits of the practice.
July 1st The Mind: An Introduction
Every human being who wants to excel and to develop the character and caliber that
upholds the values of the soul, needs a direct, fundamental relationship to the mind.
July 8th The Positive Mind
The purpose of the Positive Mind is projection and expansion. It searches for pleasure,
for fulfillment, for the possibilities to utilize anything that we can experience.
Am I open to all possibilities that life has to offer?
July 15th The Negative Mind
The purpose of the Negative Mind is protection. It gives us patience to be obedient
to our own inner guidance.
Can I determine if there is danger in a situation?
July 22nd The Neutral Mind
The Neutral Mind is also the Meditative Mind. It observes the actions of both the
Positive and Negative Minds and then judges both in relationship to your higher self.
Do I allow myself to perceive and act upon inner wisdom?
July 29th Putting It All Together
This session will allow students to discuss the content of this series; ask questions,
express concerns. There will be two meditations and, as with the other sessions,
relaxation to the gong.
Next Session begins Wednesday, August 5 - September 9.
Finding Balance Between Thinking & Feeling and Doing & Being
The autonomic nervous system is not governed by thought; it is automatic. There are two branches in this system: the sympathetic system and the parasympathetic system.
The sympathetic system is a “gas pedal” of our body. It speeds up the breath, sends the heart racing, and raises blood pressure. The sympathetic system is “turned on” by anger, fear, and other similar emotions. The message is: “Wake up and go!”.
The parasympathetic system is a “brake” for our body. It can slow the breath and can relax digestion, nerves, and circulation. The message is: “Relax, take it all in, and enjoy what you have.”
The sympathetic system in an animal goes to work for its survival when there is danger. Once the danger has passed, an animal’s parasympathetic system kicks in. With humans, the sympathetic system is important, but the problem with many of us is that we can not get back to the sympathetic system either fully or even partially.
Through kriyas and meditations, this series will help students work on finding balance between the sympathetic and the parasympathetic systems; moving from doing and being to thinking and feeling.
Important Reminder: At this time, we are unable to provide any communal props for use during our practice. Please bring the props that you will need: this may include a mat, a blanket, a cushion/bolster, a pillow, a block(s)….
