Kundalini Yoga for the Negative Mind: Balancing the Second Light Body

Do you find yourself constantly anticipating worst-case scenarios or feeling overwhelmed by protective, anxious thoughts? In yogic philosophy, this is the domain of the Negative Mind—the second of the ten light bodies responsible for assessing risk and keeping us safe. When out of balance, it leads to chronic worry; when balanced, it provides healthy boundaries and sharp discernment. This written course guides you through the foundational principles of Kundalini yoga to balance this protective mental faculty. You will learn how to transition from defensive anxiety to structured, calm discernment through targeted breathing, physical postures, and focused mental exercises. By grounding these ancient practices in modern nervous system regulation, you will develop a practical toolkit for daily mental clarity. What you'll learn: - Understand the role of the Second Light Body (the Negative Mind) in yogic philosophy and modern stress responses. - Practice foundational Kundalini kriyas designed to clear mental clutter and release stored tension. - Apply specific breathwork (pranayama) and eye-focus techniques (drishti) to calm an overactive nervous system. - Perform back-strengthening postures and heart-opening movements to cultivate physical and emotional resilience. - Integrate somatic awareness practices to ground your energy when analytical thinking becomes overwhelming. The course begins with essential terminology and the philosophical foundations of the ten yogic bodies. You will then progress through step-by-step written instructions for physical sequences, breathing exercises, and meditative techniques designed for daily practice. This course is designed for beginners interested in yoga, meditation, and mental wellness. No prior experience with Kundalini yoga or physical flexibility is required.
