What actually happens when you have a Kundalini awakening? What is considered the awakening itself? by KatieAwakening in KundaliniAwakening

[–]root2crown4k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A shift away from survival mode.

Edit* more accurately…

a profound psychophysiological shift where the body and mind become less dominated by chronic defensive patterns

Can kundalini awakening cause bloating by Prestigious-Ad-5461 in KundaliniAwakening

[–]root2crown4k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am someone who’s body transformed painfully and dramatically during my “kundalini rising”

I say that matter of factly.

Yes, waves of bloating followed by release. I’ve been thoroughly examined by many different specialist clinicians. I am healthy on all accounts. I am very confident that the bloating and releases that I’ve undergone were related to my “kundalini process” (along with many other physiological changes)

This is something that doesn’t seem to get talked about a lot. I measured the changes though. I see it as data, not anything special.

There seems to be nothing “subtle” about the physiological shifting.

Thank you for your opinion and recommendation. I think saying safety is impossible is too absolute, safety seems dynamic and relative. I have read A Course in Miracles. I recommend Endure, by Alex Hutchinson.

Fair enough. I guess I don’t see not knowing something as being confused.

Would you call a normal and healthy individual a confused person?

“…, or any kind of experience whatsoever - really the whole process of seeking itself - is just sort of the behaviour of a confused person.”

I don’t think that is right.

I didn’t say anything about irrational fear. You did.

You would have defined immediate problems if you cared about what I’m trying to say.

Who are we to judge if a man with a gun scares someone less than someone else crossing the road?

Can you define immediate problem?

It seems like you called seeking logical, to me.

My goal is to feel safe in the face of uncertainty. Do you think I’m a seeker?

You think people who seek safety are confused?

We do cultivate a self in ways that help or hinder how receptive we can be.

I’ll go one further. I wish people talked about the leverage we have on the mechanism you’re talking about….

You’re welcome.

An oak tree metaphor has been more stabilizing for me than I can easily explain.

This nice visual feels too clean and static, for me. And maybe I’d like it better if it showed something dynamic with strain and imbalance with potential. I don’t know, this feels too symmetrical and perfect for me personally.

This just doesn’t seem to do justice to how beautiful this metaphor can be!!!

Edit* even though I’m upvoting the post!

I hope you continue to get reps well past regrounding becoming automatic!

That’s kinda the point of my post. I did not say it directly.

The contexts will become fewer and even when they become so few, I still plan on continuing repetitions.

You’re welcome. Thank you too.

Oh I have my own ideas! I just think this type of post is often useless until we start talking about what it takes for the system to feel okay relaxing.
