In part 1 of this mini series on basic yoga poses for balance I detailed the popular kundalini yoga extension pose and in part 2 I will go into another great pose to help you with your physical balance, Hatha Yoga Tree Pose.
A very important aspect of your physical health and wellbeing is balance. Needless to say this is key as we age and is especially important for seniors and the elderly. Yoga is certainly amongst the best systems for building and improving your balance, and in this article series I would like to detail 2 basic yoga poses which are excellent for this purpose.

The popular article How to Raise Enlightened Children kicked off our kids yoga and meditation section, developing which is a key goal of Mastery of Meditation & Yoga. Towards that end I want to provide you some easy meditation techniques for kids and also some sample videos, which I hope will inspire and encourage your children to dive in and reap the enormous benefits of meditation practice.
One of the best chakra meditation techniques is of course the traditional AUM Mantra Meditation to Open the Third Eye, and in this article I am going to give another great chakra meditation technique for opening the all important Third Eye which comes directly from the school of Kundalini Yoga.
Opening and balancing the Third Eye Chakra (Ajna Chakra) is a key step in one’s spiritual evolution, as the Third Eye is the seat of intuition, and having this center functioning optimally gives one access to the guidance of the Inner Guru. To learn more about the chakras you can read the article, Kundalini Yoga Seven Chakra System Overview.
So last week I ran the most interesting survey which asked, "How Many Enlightenment Experiences Have You Had?" I clarified that by enlightenment experiences I was asking about those glimpses of Ultimate Reality that readers have had. Experiences or awakenings that reveal the underlying Truth which remains hidden behind the over active ego-centric mind. So are we about the move into the Age of Enlightenment? Let’s take a look at the results and also discuss the value of such mystical experiences.
The confirmation of the terrific benefits of meditation keep pouring in. A few weeks ago, in the article Brain Health Benefits of Meditation, I discussed recent empirical research that showed the positive affects of meditation on brain health and stress reduction, and I have also written about my views of how beneficial meditation is in the article Top 10 Profound Benefits of Meditation. But more real life evidence now comes in the form of our recent survey results which simply asked, "How Much Has Meditation Helped You In Your Life?"
Before I get into this wonderful Kundalini Yoga pose I would like to encourage you all to participate in the most interesting survey on enlightenment that I am currently running on Mastery of Meditation & Yoga. Here is the link to this survey, please do take a moment and give your input: "Survey: How Many Enlightenment Experiences Have You Had?" Now onto the yoga pose which captures the very essence of sacrifice and compassion, while at the same time building inner strength and willpower.
Lets get deeper into the wonderful world of spiritual enlightenment and enlightenment experiences.
Often both readers, as well as students from my yoga studio, describe to me the wonderful enlightenment experiences that they have had. It is also not uncommon for these "transcendental" experiences to be the catalyst for propelling them onto the spiritual path, whether that be taking up yoga and meditation, or some other profound spiritual science.
Needless to say I love hearing back from all of you about how you are benefiting from the Kundalini Yoga and Hatha Yoga techniques that are freely available on Mastery of Meditation & Yoga. It is the core objective of this website to be exactly such a resource. A free repository of meditation techniques, Kundalini Yoga exercises, Hatha Yoga poses and of course online classes designed to help you extract maximum benefits from these profound spiritual sciences. I am happy to see this work achieving it’s mission.
