I am clear

Posted by Gurutej

· September 2, 2014

This is the best. This is your birthright. To be clear means you can hear. It means you can connect. It means you are present. For true clarity means you erase the chatter, the chaos that follows you around. Clear is bright of eyes and heart. It means you have nothing to lose or gain. You are free, you are clear. Are you ready for clear? Then create habits that will build your clarity. For your habits lead you to clear or confused. Your habits support your essence or your demise. Your habits elevate you to vastness or plague you with insecurity. Each moment, you have the chance to choose clear or not.

This breath Sitalie is one that can bring you to clear very quickly. Use it often. Roll your tongue and stick it through your lips. Inhale through your tongue and exhale through your nose. If you can’t roll your tongue at first then make an “O” out of your mouth and push your tongue through the “O” with just the tip sticking out of the lips. Then do the same – inhale and exhale.

Another thing that can take you to clear quickly is to flip your tongue back like you are swallowing it, and let the back of your tongue press into the roof of your mouth. It will hit the perfect point in your mouth to activate your pineal gland and create clarity in your crown.

Silently focus on Wahe Guru, the sound of Deepest Ecstasy. Do this for at least 3 minutes. You can do this up to 11 minutes and this is something that you can do without anyone knowing. So you can reclaim clear any time.

Wahe Guru are you ready to claim the Essence, the core of you?

Yoga Energy: Being An Energy Guru (or Not)

Yoga Energy: Being An Energy Guru (or Not)

I had a very funny experience the other day. I was at this function and my tag read

Gurutej Khalsa
Energy Guru

Now those of you who know me know I hate wearing tags in my clothes (or on my clothes). I will never buy anything that has the name of a designer on it. (I know who my Designer is and it isn’t Calvin Klein or DKNY or Ferragamo). Anyway, back to the story. One man came up to me and starting talking and was really interested in what The Energy Gurus was (and why) and his wife came by and said, “Oh, I can see he is going to get back into yoga. Not me, but he will.” The next man (who approached me) then asked about it. I said, “When I say energy what do you think of?” He said, “Gas, coal wind, solar.” I responded, “Exactly. This is what most people think of, but what about your energy? Would you like to know how to change your energetic states?” His response was the most odd. He said, “Oh, God. That is a scary thought.” I have to say he was about 80 years old. He didn’t even want to think about changing his energetic states. I will also say that this was a very educated crowd. Interesting, that the thought of changing our energetic states is far scarier than thinking of other forms of energy—the old Newtonian concept that wants someone or something else to fix us; to shift our energy. The New age concept is, only you can shift your energetic states.

There is this Hafiz poem that tells God’s concept of what will happen if we don’t embrace our passion, which gives you so much more energy, and align our lives with that energy. Everything in life has energy. Some things take our energy and some things give us energy. Some things give us a false sense of energy and some things give the real goods. At each moment, we are choosing which side of the spectrum we are moving into. The poem states that God posted a decree on the wall stating, “If your heart cannot find joyful work, the jaws of the world will probably grab your sweet ass [and grind you to bits]. That last part is my addition.

So what do you do that gives you energy? What do you do that takes energy from you? What cheaters do you use? (i.e., caffeine, sugar, alcohol or… name your energy cheater) Do you want something real and yummy get out of the jaws of the world? Try this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFm7g70Lc-0

Did you do it? Don’t just skip over it. It can support you and your energy right now. The most important thing you can learn to shift, change, and expand is your own energy because without fabulous energy, how can you do anything in your life that is worthwhile? You know how to lose energy, you know how to have no energy and be drained, but how to get energy that will sustain, support and uplift you? No? That is priceless and you deserve priceless. Start with getting a video each day that will support you.

Then get the Kundalini Yoga Flip Charts so you can carry them with you—so you can be carried through life.

Wahe Guru love and life energy to you.

What Is a Yoga Energy Guru?

What Is a Yoga Energy Guru?

Do you know? I didn’t either, though I’m a Kundalini Yoga teacher, till I realized that my mission in life was to make everyone their own yoga energy guru. What does that mean. Okay this is the story. I realized after years of teaching people how to have better lives with Kundalini Yoga, meditation, diet, community etc., that we know so much about so many things but we don’t have a clue about us. We know about changing our clothes, our sheets, taking care of our cars and our homes but we don’t know how to take care of our rented home called our body.

What you know even less about is how to adjust your minds or your emotions. Can’t tell you how many thousands of times I have heard, “I just can’t shut off my mind, Can you help me with that?” I kept hearing these pleas everywhere I went—that and “Oh, my God. I need to get up from my desk during the day but there is so much to do. I don’t even drink water because I don’t want to have to go to the bathroom.” It’s the just one more thing complex. Then at the end of the day our minds are toast and our bodies are twisted and in pain, or emotions frayed and we aren’t bringing our best self home or anywhere else.

I said to myself there has to be a way that I can take all I have learned as a yoga energy guru and share it with others in a useful way. What people also kept telling me was, “I just don’t have the time to do that (whatever I suggested) it will take too much time. So I needed to make something that could be done in the office, or in the car or in the bathroom AND have a big bang for the 1-3 minutes I was asking them to invest. I can do this, I thought, and I did. I created these wonderful flip charts with 18 exercises that you can do all day long to reclaim your energy.

The Kundalini Yoga Release Flipchart has 18 exercises that will help you release stress, challenging situations or things you are obsessing about.

The Kundalini Yoga Rejuvenate Flipchart is 18 exercises that will allow you to rejuvenate your mind, breath, body and spirit.

Here are two you can do right now so you have the experience. Taking my word as an experienced yoga energy guru is one thing but having the experience yourself is quite another.

Release

Squatting

Claw Dance: Two steps for radiant, charismatic energy

Round and tighten fingers in long-clawed-like hands.

Come up tall on your toes swinging the arms out to the sides and up over the head in a big arc motion. Breath in on the way up while saying “WHO”. Next, squat down while the arms are swinging downward in a big arc. Exhale saying “LA” on the way down. Keep repeating these 2 steps.

Round up and tighten fingers to mimic long claws.

Starting tall on tip toes, swing the arms up over the head in a big arc motion. Inhale on the way up while saying “WHO”. Exhale saying “LA” while squatting down and swinging the arms down in a big arc.

Keep repeating these 2 steps.

1-2 minutes

Gift:

Strengthens thighs and increases energy. Replenishes your energy field and expands awareness. Helps clears the mind when facing challenges.

Release

Pounding Har: Beat anger and clear cobwebs

Sit on heels on a mat, or at your desk if the room is sound proof.

Powerfully and rapidly beat the floor or desk surface with palm of hands while saying “HAR” with each pounding. Make the sounds from deep within the abdomen. For added benefit, pump lightly by pulling the navel in toward the spine with each “HAR”.

2-3 minutes

Gift:

Helps release anger and frustration. Uses sounds and powerful motion to clear “debris” and stimulates all the nerve endings in the hands.

So for your sake, try these; use these and share them so you can become your own energy guru; so you can know how to shift your energy at any time; so you can know how to clear your mind, rejuvenate or release your body and open your soul so you can enjoy this hueman experience you are having.

Blessings to all Energy Gurus,

Gurutej Khalsa
