"Kundalini awakening is a term given to describe a subjective experience in which an individual's ego transcends their ordinary, finite sense of self to encompass a wider, infinite sense of truth or reality. These deeply embodied, noetic experiences are often perceived as a direct connection, communion, or nondual merging with an unlimited and universal consciousness, the divine or "God" in perceived oneness. Experiences of kundalini awakening, whether gradual or sudden, intentionally induced or spontaneous, typically evoke an ineffable sense of deep inner knowing, understanding, "remembering," or "unveiling" of one's true nature. These profound experiences may also trigger a sense of transcendence of time and space and an increase in physical and mental sensitivity to internal and external stimulations. Occasionally, these sensory sensitivities may extend to paranormal-like experiences, with people reporting increased synchronicities, visions, telepathic experiences, feeling spiritual presences, hearing sounds or voices not produced externally, and seeing things that are not materially present. Distressing awakening experiences, also known as spiritual emergencies or crises, may arise as a direct consequence of the initial experience when an individual is left feeling overwhelmed, confused, or challenged by the drastic perceptual shifts, as the subject finds themself stripped of all pre-existing beliefs and concepts of life without an appropriate framework through which to interpret their newly-gained insight, and often without a proper support system to which they can turn. Because of this, it is assumed that spiritual emergencies may more frequently occur outside of a religious or spiritual context. Psychological research on spiritual and kundalini awakenings is still in its infancy. Studies investigating the impact of mystical experiences on well-being, have recognized the predominantly positive, healing effects of these experiences, but have also acknowledged some of the more challenging aspects." - Spontaneous Spiritual Awakenings by Jessica Sophie Corneille & David Luke.

Maturity is a process, and it has different aspects. In Kundalini Yoga, we take about how a human being matures through a very dependable set of cycles. The 7-year consciousness cycle is the most fundamental for our identity. From our identity, we judge the world, determine our values, and discover our potentials. Learning how to navigate those periods of change is an essential part of the journey. To read more about this practice click the link in bio. #kundaliniyoga #serpentineyoga
