Frequently Asked Questions

Kundalini Yoga is the Yoga of Awareness and Happiness. You will not be the same after practicing. Some refer to this type of yoga as an express train to enlightenment. It awakens the energy of consciousness, the Ong. Ong is the primal sound current from which all creativity flows. Ek Ong Kar or source energy, is the vibration and the consciousness of the universe. It is creation itself. Practicing this type of yoga sheds light on our self-imposed limitations, removes physical and energetic blocks and invites us to develop our intuitive mind. Living from our intuitive mind is one of the main goals of a Kundalini practitioner. Kundalini Yoga is very healing for the endocrine and nervous systems. It balances the brain and strengthens the entire body from the inside and out, so we can lead a more healthy, vibrant and balanced life. Kundalini Yoga is a specific proven science. It is a 5000 year old practice that was not shared with the masses until Yogi Bhajan brought the teaching to the West in the late 1960’s. When we apply this yogic technology to our bodies and minds, it has the effect of uplifting the spirit. It is for everyone, it is universal and nondenominational. “In Kundalini Yoga the most important thing is your experience. It goes right to your heart. No words can replace your experience. Your mind may accept the words or it may not, but your consciousness will not accept just words.”Yogi Bhajan

Kundalini Yoga works on your brain, endocrine system and nervous system. For thousands of years yogi’s have understood these effects. Modern science is now catching up to this applied yogic science and recent studies have show how beneficial Kundalini Yoga can be for health. Specifically for treating early signs of Dementia, Alzheimers and other neurological conditions.

Energetic Healing is an umbrella term for any therapy that manipulates the energy circuits in our physical or subtle bodies to regain balance and facilitate our body’s innate healing mechanisms. Some of the more well know therapies that fall under the heading “energetic healing” include Reiki, Reflexology, Kinesiology, Thought Field Therapy and Acupuncture. However, energetic healing also encompasses lesser known natural therapies such as: Aura and Chakra balancing; Flower and Vibrational Essences, Crystal Healing, Colour Therapy, Spiritual Healing, and other forms of bodywork. Energetic healing practitioners are ususally trained in a number of modalities and will combine these in their own unique way. Many combine intuitive skills with their practical and theoretical skills. Energetic healing takes a holistic approach that looks beyond the physical to manipulating the subtle energy systems (meridians, auric bodies, chakras, nadis) where the cause of the dis-ease can be located. Trauma, emotional and mental stress, false belief systems, physical distress, environment stress, and other blocks to our personal growth can be stored in the energy fields of our bodies, impacting our ability to function at our full potential. Energetic healing facilitates the healing process by clearing blocks in the energy fields, repairing and rebalancing the energy so that the body can move to its optimal level of balance from where it is able to access its inherent ability to heal itself. Energetic healing can also help identify “issues” before they manifest as pain or similar distortions in the physical body. It opens our consciousness to the areas we need to work through and heal in order to bring our lives into balance and maintain health, harmony and vitality.

The speed and vibration of sound can be felt throughout the entire form. Have you ever felt the sound of a gong playing? Different sounds can cause different vibrations in the brain and the body. The most healing sound for your body is the sound of your own voice. This is why mantra, singing, toning and chanting are so good for you brain and your endocrine system and used so prevalently in Kundalini Yoga. Different sounds can balance and synchronize the brain so it is more alert, focused or relaxed depending on the frequency of the sounds. The result is a healthier body and a happier person. While each client has his or her own unique experience, below are some of the benefits you may experience during the course of or even after a BHS session.
