Meditation and Pranayama Symptoms

[mrityunjay_singh_1983]

After bathing i am also feeling itching in my body.
After some time it becomes normal.

[Shanti]

Yes, get it checked by a doctor mrityunjay... and hopefully he will rule out any possible health issues. Also be aware of how you sit... I have seen when I slouch while sitting in meditation and move my sitting position I do get chest pain as well, but it is muscular.

Regarding the itching after a bath... change your soap... go to a fragrance free/dye free soap... at times the soap can cause the skin irritation.

Plant has inner reproduction process no outer reproduction process.  

But

Animal has outer reproduction process no inner reproduction process.


Human have have both process.
Outer reproduction process : Progeny
Inner Reproduction process : Kundalini Awakening
I think kundalini awakening same like plant reproduction process.

Am I right?

Still left right imbalance persisting with me.

Some times i got too much sexual thought that i am unable to control. I repeat my meditation mantra. But i again deviate  towards these type of thoughts.

Now a days i am practicing only alternate nostrill breathing, kapalbhati kundalini pranayama and meditation. I left mudra bandha practices. Some times in day time during my work my concentration shift towards head region. Some energy rushing in right lob of head but very less energy rushing in left lobe of head. Some times small pain also with rushing.

I am regular with my practices and life style. Some times some little bit deviation.
When this balance will happen? I want freedom from these sexual thinking. I am trying but not getting.

Namaste Mirtunjay,

Try Nadi shodan pranayama it'll help in balancing the ida and pingala.

And do this following excercise:

1.Sit in sukhasan ie sit confortably preferably on flour and if possible on mud ie on beach sand like that.
2.keep your left palm facing upward to the sky and keep the upward facing palm on your lap.
3.Now keep the right hand on the floor facing the earth.
4.Now visualise all the imbalance from left side of the body is going to the ground to Mother earth.
5.Now keep your right hand palm on your right lap with palm facing the sky.
6.Left hand palm just raise to the shoulder level and open the palm towards the sky ie to ether(akasha).
7.Now visualize all the imbalance from your right side of the body which also means it'll include pingala nadi too.so visiualize all the imbalnce from right side is going out to the akasha or ether from your left hand.

I hope that helps.

Love N Light
Viji

My digestion and piles problem becomes little bit ok. But now i am starts getting cold and cough. In my area winter season is present. So due to that, may be this things come. But when i go to doctor, doctor says, "There is  no problem in chest at all". This Cough happen in morning, not in day time. The doctor has provided some medicine for that, and i am taking that medicine.

My left channel and right channel imbalance is still peresisting with me.

When i read literature regarding inner energy imbalances on internet, they says these things happens because of imbalance. I can not talk these yogic symptom with medical doctor. I feels little bit nervous. I don't know, what will they think.

I am going to doctor because in AYP chapter number 69, they have mentioned that if any health problem occur then consult doctor. If it is medical then it will be cured by doctor. But if it's not medical then it will cure with further progress in yogic practice.

I have already told in my previous post that i have left right imbalance. I think, it is increasing more and more.
Why i am telling, because now a days, during my meditation practice i feel more pressure from previous in right skull but very less in left skull.

I am continuing with alternate nostril, spinal breathing, yogasana and walking practices for stabilizing this imbalance.

Should i stop my practices for some days?
Such that things settle down.
Please give some suggestion in this regard.

I don't think you should be worried and you don't really need to focus on correcting this balance. Through a regular practice that gently responds to your symptoms you will achieve balance over time. It doesn't seem like you've got bad symptoms from what you've posted. Prana doesn't just flow in sushumna, it flows all over our bodies and out the top of the head (as christi pointed out, however I don't buy the whole semen-soma thing), so unless you have a severe reaction to the prana flowing through your body and the ida and pingala, there is no reason to force the energy into the central channel. This is a years long process, just let it do its thing.

I had right left imbalance problem,right side more left side less, energy movement. I don't do mudra bandhas, only balancing practices. Due to this imbalance, i had piles, acidity in stomach. Finally, those things come in control.

Now, i feel pressure in right head, when i do work with concentration. During alternate nostril breathing and meditation i feel pressure in right skull. During sleep at night, my sleep get disturbed, i used to awake one time in night. After that my sleep don't come properly. But i don't feel any laziness next day. I works properly.

I think due to some balancing practices, now, more energy is rushing in left side in comparison to previous time. But still i feel more pressure in right side skull. Due to this pressure, my sleep is getting disturb.

[mrityunjay_singh_1983]

From one and half year before, because of asana,pranayama and meditation practices i feels energy movement in my body, more in right side and very lees in left side.

From  one year before my body has get some physical problem like piles, digestion problem and now a days i am feeling insomnia. But, after quieting bed i feels refresh. These things i had described in my posts. Some more problems are added here like insomnia.

I am a PhD student. At the time of reading also i feel more pressure in my right skull.

I have consulted doctors physiotherapist, psychiatrist and neurologist. They have told that, these disease has no cure in modern medical system. Your life style should be good. Because of my yoga practices, i already live with good life style. But still problems are present. The Neurologist has told me that you have to do meditation in proper way. He was also long term meditation practitioner.

I have fallowed aypsite regarding kundalini syndrome.
http://www.aypsite.com/plus/69.html
After that, i have taken some precaution regarding this. which is as shown.

I have removed mudra bandha from above my practices list. I do exercise and asana in each alternate day. Now my practice list are alternate nostril Pranayama and Meditation one time every day. Some times i quit my practices also.  Some times, i moves on ground, bare footed.  Taking more meals frequently, timely manner.  I am regular in my lifestyle.
 
But, still things are not improving.
At the time of pranayama and meditation, i feels more pressure in right skull of my head. Some times pressure increases more.

What should i do?

Should i continue with my practices or i quit for some days?

I am in confused state.

Hi,

Here is a thread dealing with left/right imbalances.  There are different view points,so I suggest reading the whole thread.

[mrityunjay_singh_1983]

I have kundalini imbalance problem. Energy moves more in right side of my body and brain, less in left side of body and brain. I am doing grounding practices to make things easy. I am regular with my asana, alternate nostril breathing, spinal breathing and meditation practices. No mudra bandha or shat karma practices. In morning i takes water before going to latrine.

Regarding this kundalini imbalance. I have mail to Jana Dixon of biologyofkundalini.com regarding my kundalini imbalance. My problem is as shown below.
Since i am doing PhD in mathematics type area. He(Jana Dixon) is telling that when kundalini comes in left side of body and brain then your math ability will be totally stopped. If this will be going to happen, then my PhD will be in trouble.  I have given my discussion through 'Jana Dixon by email below.

Please help me in this regard.

    Subject: some assistance regarding kundalini imbalance
    From: mrityunjay23@gmail.com
    To: jananz@hotmail.com


    Respected Sir,

    This is mrityunjay PhD student in mathematical aspect of  computer science.
    I have been doing asana, pranayama with mudra and bandha and mantra meditation since 5-6 years every day in morning only. Now, i am feeling kundalini imbalance problem. I feel asymmetric head pressure, means i feel pressure more in right side of my brain, less in left side. I am also getting digestion and piles problem. I feel connection of right skull and right foot most of the time. But not similar case with left side. When i sleep right nostril down and left nostril up, means less pressure skull up, then i feel some connection of left skull and left foot. But not always and very less this happen.

    If i apply mudra bandha with pranayam then it becomes more problematic. So i have left mudra bandha practices. Now, i am only practising asana, alternate nostrill breathing, spinal breathing and mantra meditaiton.  Some times i also move on grass, bare footed.
    I went to doctor for medical check up, but i have not get any improvement. Doctor says it looks fine, no medical problem. Regarding head pressure, i went to neurologist, i have told about my practices. That doctor was also yoga practitioner. He was telling that continue with your meditation, thing will settle down with time. Medical drugs wont help you in this case.
    I have find your site by searching on internet. Please help in this regard. I shall be highly obliged.

    Q1 How much time it will take to settle down?

    Q2 Is this kundalini imbalance give problem to my mathematical thinking of my PhD?
    Thank You

    Hi Mrit,
    Kundalini usually shows up more in the left side than the right, so with you it might be due to you being a mathematician. Try alternate nostril breathing, toning/humming and more shamanic practices, dance, grounding, drumming and walking barefoot etc...
    Only kundalini herself knows how long she will take, but you can ask her yourself, and wait for a silent answer.
    Keep up a high antioxidant diet, get lots of nature...light sungazing will help to integrate the energy...if you live near a river or ocean swim in it and spend time on the sand.
    Bodywork, stretching on the grass and even sleeping outside are also helpful.

    Haha,
    In my experience Math becomes almost impossible during kundalini except with concerted concentration...however my electrical overwhelm was on the LEFT side of the body and brain. Because your overactivity is on the RIGHT side of the body and brain your mathematic ability may be somewhat preserved, especially since math is already how your brain is naturally wired. You can concentrate more if you drink a large glass of water, ground yourself (bare feet on earth or sit outside), drop the muscles at the back of your tongue and do throaty breaths while focusing (stilling the mind). When you focus do not FORCE your mind into one point of concentration, but have confidence that you can use what FEELS like a diffuse-expansive brain to SENSE into the answer without EFFORT. Using the brain during a kundalini awakening is like learning to drive a jet plane, when you have been used to driving a
    Volkswagen Beetle

I have left pranayama and meditation practice completely. Because it creates heavy pressure in the right of my skull. I do only asana every day. Now, i feels pain near by spine up to back of third eye. When i become late to take meal then excessive acid in my system. But after taking food i feel comfortable.

[mrityunjay_singh_1983]

I have stopped pranayama and meditation practices. Because of kundalini syndrome.
As a grounding exercise, I am finding moving on grass bare footed is very beneficial for me.
I am searching for Qi gong exercises. I am new in this tai chi and qi gong area. May you guys guide me.
I have find this Qi gong video for learning.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkk6ya8RyXY

In AYP it has mentioned tai chi as a grounding practice. I am getting confusion. For grounding practice, Should  I go for qi gong or tai chi learning?

When energy grounds then I get some pain in left and right side through out spine. I am also getting itching in scrotum area.

[mrityunjay_singh_1983]

Regarding pressure in right skull of my head. I have met to various doctors.
First I have gone to physician. He has given me multi vitamin tablet. It has not given any reduction in my right side head pressure.
Second time i have gone to psychiatrist. He has done my counseling then they have given some medicine specifically mineral syrup and some more tablet. I have  taken those things but things has not been changed within me.

Third time I went to Neurologist. He has told I am not finding any serious symptom. So, i won't recommend any test. He was knowing about kundalini related problems. He has told it can't be cured by allopathic medication.

I have left my yoga practice. Since, my body and mind is pitta type. I have started to follow diet(sweet pungent and bitter test  less spice less onion), herb(Alovera and Amlika), oil(coconut) and lifestyle(no competitive games) according to pitta body and mind type. I have added walking on grass bare footed and exercise every day. Drinking 3-4 liter water every day. But still pressure is persisting in right skull of my head.

After 7 month of these practices, I have met one more physician. He has recommended MRI of Brain and Cervical spine. MRI was normal. It was not showing any thing serious. He has given some medicine. But after taking medicine I have not find any improvement in pressure.

When I try to concentrate it creates more pressure in right skull of my head. But, at the time of playing I don't feel any pressure. I think because of my attention is not on head. That is why, I don't feel pressure in right skull of my head.

I met ayurvedic doctor. He has given some herb Arogya vardhani vati, aswagandha rist and vayu...ras(I don't know exact name of this that is why dots).  I have not purchased this.

Some people are telling try to find some homeopathic doctor. It might work in this case.

I am confused regarding doctors. I am not finding any improvement. This pressure is not creating any problem to me I can do my work with enthusiasm.

Since pressure is coming may be it will create some problem in future.

Should I follow ayurvedic doctor or homeopathic doctor? Or I continue with my life style as described above. Should I add again my yogic practice?
