I dislike Kundalini yoga?

[MercuryWisdom]

I find Kundalini Yoga either too boring or too tiring.

It’s really great the bioelectric energy surge after but the act itself I’m starting to find really boring or too hard.

I even started experimenting with different kriyas on Pinklotus. I did Nabhi kriya, it was stimulating but really hard to do on a daily basis as well as other abundance/sexual energy/sexual chakras kriyas.

Then on the other hand I also did the basic spinal program for the longest time which I’m starting to find is unbearable to me because of how boring it is, I also did other kriyas that were easy but I felt was dumb or boring.

I’m finding it hard atm to just have a reliable kriya to do daily that aligns with my goals and feels relaxing and fun to do and not too hard.

Unlike hatha yoga which I find relaxing and after a point it’s a NEED to do it daily.

What do you guys think?

You have to change your mindset. Goals, hardly, will be achieved through “fun.” And I'm not just talking about spirituality.

 

[Vivek]

You can try and make your physical environment more stimulating to get you 'in the mood', for example using incense, music or ambient sounds, lighting etc., (even going outside).

With certain things you just have to "eat your vegetables" so to speak.

 

[CharlesBenetton]

You can try vibrate some mantras or meditations(or maybe a magick for kundalini) before doing kundalini yoga.

Yoga should be relaxing, creative, and yes fun.

It’s right brained and just pushing through like it’s a Push Pull Leg routine is not good for you either.

I did have fun with the Nabhi kriyas and others but they are a bit too difficult because they require a very strong core. So they are great but not daily.

 

[Hs666]

...

The mind must be controlled, not the other way around. Things do not have “fun” or “boredom.” It is a perception of your mind that projects.

It sounds like you're swinging from one extreme to another. Seeking balance where one is adequately challenged is key. Kundalini Yoga Kriyas serve a clear purpose, and doing them just because is not ideal. The basic spinal energy series concludes with Sat Kriya, and once the entire sequence becomes too easy, the time spent practicing Sat Kriya can be increased. It is advised to start at three minutes at the beginning in the instructions. That should be enough for the vast majority of people, and once that becomes easy, adding a minute at a time, for example, will bring more stimulus. Thus, the argument of boring falls flat. Try doing it for six or nine minutes, for example. Is it still boring? It should stimulate the Kundalini greatly. What is boring about that? Moreover, who said that Kundalini Yoga has to be done daily? Taking a day off to recover is sometimes required as the body, mind, and soul adjust. This is the same with meditation, where fluctuations in energy happen--sometimes easier days are required, otherwise the central nervous system goes off-balance staying in constant stimulated state which results in negative physical and mental symptoms that can easily be misdiagnosed such as failing organs when in reality one simply has to rest for a bit to recover.

I did Wing Chun for 8 years and our warm-up routines were mind blowing. I don't expect you to do the full routines, but if you're bored then try these. There are many more on UTube:

Your core will get stronger by doing them. I developed strong abs years ago just from KY.

You can mix up KY and do something different each day, that's what I did for a long time. I had a lot of videos, it was easier to follow along to videos than to the PinkLotus PDFs.

 

[Sacred Zucchini]

does it make sense to do kundalini yoga without the final kriya?

 

[Henu the Great]

does it make sense to do kundalini yoga without the final kriya?

If you mean the basic spinal energy series, then no. But doing Sat Kriya alone is ok since it is a separate, independent Kriya.

When something is boring or not aligned with our goals, it means we don't find it fulfilling. This is like an internal perception of value.
Where we see value, motivation is created to achieve it.

Yes, anything we do should be fun in order for us to do it more, but this is not always the case, at least not at the start.

KY may not be immediately fun for you, but it could hold significance for your advancement, which then helps you achieve other dreams.

Even if it is boring for you, you can have a large benefit from it. For example, there are athletes which feels boring to do some exercise, but they must do it because it is part of the plan. Lot of people feels boring to some exercises, but other exercises feels comfortable.

We're talking about these exercises, right? Or are there more than I should know of?

Some of the Hatha ones I just can't do, like standing on my hands or my head, even when I balance on the wall.

We are talking about Kundalini Yoga (taught by Yogi Bhajan). https://www.pinklotus.org/ These are from books.

As for not being able to do something. There are progressions. In the sample session you linked there are examples for progressing with inverse asanas. The easiest one is "the tripod", and in normal circumstances, nothing should bar you from doing it. Try it against a wall at first, as it is the easiest one to do. Once that becomes easy to do, do it without leaning on a wall. Then you can progress to headstand against a wall, and so on.

That’s exactly what I’m lacking is nomination. Obviously means I don’t have a goal. I guess it’s time to change that

Where can I find videos High Priestess Lydia?

 

[HPS Lydia]

Where can I find videos High Priestess Lydia?

I downloaded and bought a lot by Ana Brett, but now hers are streaming only on her website which you can find by typing in her name online. Her husband is a jew so he tries to get as many shekels as possible. I wouldn't mind purchasing the new ones they've put out but I don't see the point in 30$ a month just to get access to a few that I don't have, although I might try the free trial to see if I would benefit from it.

For free videos, go to youtube and type in Kimilla, she has a lot. I recommend trying her Morning Sadhana one as it covers the entire body and all chakras, but you can look around on her site for your specific needs. She also has a website for subscription for more videos, but her customer service is terrible and you'll be locked in for a year, there's no monthly option and no free trial. $300 for a full year which is probably worth it if you're really dedicated to it, but I find Ana Brett's to be more well-rounded, my personal opinion which may differ from others as we are all individuals.

Brett Larkin also has a lot on youtube but I am not familiar with hers, although she is a highly recognized teacher.

Kimilla's are all 100% true to Yogi Bhajan's teachings, whereas Ana Brett's are mixed of multiple teachings by him to create a more well-rounded workout for each video.

There are also a lot more on youtube, for example if you prefer a male instructor, I just happened to find Ana Brett's based on Lady Maxine's recommendation on ToZ when I was new and Kimilla when I was trying to find Yogi Bhajan's Morning Sadhana.
