Monday Meditation: Breath Work To Clear Stress and Anxiety

This Kundalini meditation focuses on breath work. This is known to calm you down and increase serotonin so it's perfect for anyone who is dealing with a lot of stress and anxiety.   This is also an introduction to Kundalini meditation. In Kundalini we tune in with the mantra ONG NAMO GURU DEV NAMO. We say this 3 times. It means I bow to the Creative Wisdom, I bow to the Divine Teacher.  It opens your spiritual channel, assists you to align yourself with the frequency of the Infinite Self and quiet your mind. Lastly the breathing is a quick, loud, audible, cannon breath out the mouth 8 times in a row with a long inhale through the nose then repeat 8 cannon breaths out the mouth. Cannon breath helps to strengthen your parasympathetic nervous system, it helps with digestion, and to relax and unwind.   *** Disclaimer: This meditation includes breath work that may cause dizziness, nausea, or trembling. If any of these should occur along with lightheadedness, or tingling please stop.  Always consult your doctor before starting any exercise or meditation practice. If you are pregnant or have any chronic pain always ask your doctor before starting breath work and exercise programs.  Find Nikki online at www.nikkiyogaandwellness.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/fitfunandfrazzledpodcast www.instagram.com/nikkilanigan.yogaandwellness
