Kundalini Yoga Question

[Zaryon]

While doing kundalini yoga, I find it difficult to do the second movement. Is it a problem if I just don't make the move that I have difficulty?

You can try putting a few pillows between you bum and your feet/legs. That helps. Overtime, you should be gain better range of movement, since it's evidently sub-optimal/compromised like in most people because of a sedentary lifestyle.

If you want to accelerate, you can look online on how to develop vajrasana and/or follow Lydia's routine for the svadhisthana chakra (sacral).

Thank you SS friend. So what if we do the other 108's movements in a normal way, only this movement 27 times?

Short term (1-3 months) no problem, if you work your way up to 108, long term bad:

See your spine like a water pipe if one spot there is (less working on it free / cleaned) more blocked the water can´t flow good to the end. Which will cause problems for your kundalini to rise.

A few years ago, I did not have a flexible body and even i couldn't sit like that

If flexibility is the problem, you may do Hatha Yoga and if you are already doing it you can also add a workout schedule. In time, it will totally help you in every way

Aren't you AlinGG or who that kike was? Just as a curiosity, excuse my direct approach if something.

You are right. Thank you SS friend.

Yes it's a difficult move

Yes it's a difficult move

It seems like you're just kundalini yoga. You start with 4 for each pose, as HP Hooded Cobra suggested in the 40-day programme and you build up from them. Even if you wanted to use PinkLotus' suggestion (which I do not advise), the starting point for that would be 26. You don't go full-blown 108 immediately or you'll burn out or even damage your spine.

Other than, remember that most exercises in the basic spinal series are done with the breath of fire. The only exceptions are the 7th and the 8th ones, unless you want to break your neck on the 7th one, of course, and get cervical issues.

Take the time each day to do some extensive stretching, and to do mobility exercises. This is seperate from yoga, more athletic type stuff so not gentle and soft but rather pushing a little bit, enduring some discomfort and very mild pain, to lengthen your muscles and loosen up.
A few weeks to months of daily stretching and mobility will have you moving much more freely and easily.

Thank you SS friend. I will pay attention
