Energy Omnibus - Yogi Explains

Summary

, 37 min

Energetic sensations that arise in meditation and why to stay relaxed about them: a grounding release in the spine, stuck energy at injuries, Lahiri Mahasaya's three knots, the roll-up of consciousness, absorption, and freeze-response tingling, heat then coolness, and vanishing limbs. Uncomfortable sensations call for Mahamudra, Navi, grounding, and asking the higher self to ease off.
