Pavan Guru Meditation
I am doing a 40-day kundalini yoga meditation for a fantastic teleclass I am taking on “The Art of Soul Listening.” It’s a meditation using the Pran Bandha Mantra, sometimes referred to as “Pavan Guru” or “Pavan Pavan.” This is the first time I’ve done a kundalini yoga meditation daily and the experience has been very interesting to say the least. I feel like I am purging a lot of emotional crap (and that is good, but a little overwhelming at times!).
The funny thing about doing the meditation daily is that it is making me want to do yoga more. For whatever the reason, the brief meditation practice makes it easier to get motivated to do my home yoga. I don’t necessarily do the yoga right before or after the meditation either.
To make it easier to perform the meditation (since you have to switch from chanting to deep breathing to breath of fire), I made an audio that chimes at the appropriate times. It includes a live loop of mantra chanting, and you can download it free here.
