Hi Katrine:
I know what you mean about crossing over from chasing after spiritual results (replace with "kundalini" if you like) to having spiritual results chasing after us. It is both a confirmation and a challenge.
On the spinal breathing, make sure you are doing the full cycle, slow and easy, between brow (
not crown) and root, and not deliberately stopping in breath suspension on either end. That way you will be bringing energy down from the brow and marrying it with energy being brought up from the root. This is the best inner energy stabilizer I know and can help resolve all sorts of imbalances. But it is not a panacea for everything. Sometimes it just takes time and balanced living to even things out after big new energy openings like you have had.
I had them 20 years ago, initially without the benefit of spinal breathing, and that is reflected in the experiences described in the Secrets of Wilder novel. Talk about sunburn!
While inner silence may be the underlying factor in all of this, it is also what gives us the fortitude (inner center) to weather just about anything that happens. In AYP we work to make the whole process smooth and comfortable. For folks coming in with pre-existing overload (or a strong tendency in that direction), the AYP methods can help, but every case is unique, of course, so we do the best we can. One thing I can promise: Unlike lots of traditions, we will not run away from your (or anyone's) wild kundalini symptoms. We enjoy doing the work and being a mutual support system, you know. What are spiritual friends for anyway?
(note the sunglasses)
Maybe you have been through
lesson 69 already. If not, check it out -- that is a laundry list of kundalini symptoms and measures that can help. Don't forget physical exercise -- "grounding" is important when the energy is jamming in the upper centers.
Not sure what you mean by "extreme pitta diet," but here is an ayurvedic dosha-based "yes/no" food list that might be helpful:

Well, those are a few suggestions. The most important thing is to be proactive in managing causes and effects as best as possible. In AYP, we call it self-pacing. You are an old hand at this sort of thing, and I know you will be fine. Hopefully we can add a few useful tools here that can help you smooth out the ride.
All the best!
The guru is in you.
