I recently gave a talk at the SAND conference in San Jose that was focused on relationships, and spoke of how to have a positive relationship with kundalini energy. Here is a copy of the handout I gave attendees, a part of my speech I did not have time for but wanted to elaborate on. […]
I am planning to speak at the EUROTAS conference near Paris Sept. 25-30 and may also do a program the weekend before in London. EUROTAS is the European Transpersonal Association so you may want to check out this event if you live in Europe. Let me know also if you would be interested in a […]
I am holding a webinar on Kundalini and Awakening these days, and I thought I would share notes from a recent session on ways to calm down energy and find your center of stillness. Kundalini is your own internal energy field, an aspect of prana, but it has become heightened, as if you are at […]
