Early Morning Yoga & Meditation ... Morning Sadhana
Mondays
5:00 - 7:20 am
Here's how Yogi Bhajan explained sadhana: http://www.3ho.org/lifestyle/yogapractice.html.
And here's how we do it:
Eat less for dinner the night before, and get to bed by 10pm.
Awake at 4am & take a shower, cold at least in part.
Put on white warm ups and a head covering, such as a bandana or ripped TShirt (if you don't have white, no problem). Walk or drive to the studio, park is easy early in the morning.
Mats, blankets and mantra sheets provided. If you're late, even by an hour, still show up - you'll still get the benefit.
Sadhana starts with a chant of a 15 minute sacred poem whose Sanskrit-like language incorporates permutations of the mouth that directly stimulate the endocrine system - the guardians of health. We then practice a 40 minute kriya workout like any typical kundalini yoga class. For the final hour we sing seven mantras in meditation, reaching an incredibly elevated state. By adhering to Yogi Bhajan's urging to practice yoga before sunrise, we work on our personal issues in the most neutral time of the day (called the Ambrosial Hours), and we catch the awakening waves of the earth which sustain us throughout the day.
With or without live music, sadhana occurs every week at:
Pure Prana at
5am Mondays.
Spiral Flight at 4 am Wednesdays
Yoga House at 5am Fridays
Herndon Kundalini Community (1727 Whitewood Lane) at 4am daily
