Kundalini chakras and activation

Kundalini yoga use a combination of physical postures (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama), meditation, and chanting (mantra) to help activate and move the Kundalini energy. The practice is designed to stimulate the nervous and glandular systems, which are responsible for regulating the body's functions and maintaining overall health and well-being.As the Kundalini energy rises through the chakras, it can help to release any blockages or imbalances in these energy centers. This can lead to greater physical, emotional, and spiritual health, as well as a deeper sense of connection to the self and the world around you.

Seven chakras in Kundalini yoga

In Kundalini yoga, the seven chakras are considered vital energy centers that govern one's physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. These chakras are interconnected and influence one another, and by working with them, practitioners can activate their innate potential and cultivate a deeper sense of self-awareness and spiritual growth.By working with the chakras in Kundalini Yoga, we can cultivate greater awareness of our energy centers and learn to balance and activate them for optimal physical, emotional, and spiritual health. Through practices such as pranayama, meditation, asana, and mantra, you can awaken the Kundalini energy that lies dormant within you and activate each chakra to reach your highest levels of consciousness and spiritual evolution.

Have a look at the seven chakras:

1. Root chakra (muladhara)

The root chakra is located at the base of the spine and is associated with the element of earth. Its color is red and it represents one's sense of grounding and stability. When balanced, one feels safe and secure in their physical bodies and their environment. An imbalanced root chakra can lead to anxiety, fear, and a sense of disconnection from the body. Kundalini yoga practices that benefit the root chakra include standing postures, grounding meditations, and deep relaxation techniques.

2. Sacral chakra (svadhisthana)

The sacral chakra is located just below the navel and is associated with the element of water. Its color is orange and it represents one's creativity, sensuality, and emotional expression.

Kundalini yoga practices that benefit the solar plexus chakra include core-strengthening postures, a breath of fire, and chanting.

4. Heart chakra (anahata)

The heart chakra is located in the center of the chest and is associated with the element of air. Its color is green and it represents a person's ability to give and receive love, compassion, and connection.When balanced, one feels a sense of love, empathy, and connection to others. An imbalanced heart chakra can lead to feelings of isolation, emotional detachment, and difficulty with relationships.Kundalini yoga practices that benefit the heart chakra include heart-opening postures, pranayama, and chanting.

5. Throat chakra (vishuddha)

The throat chakra is located in the throat area and is associated with the element of ether or space.

Kundalini awakening and brief overview of course

The process of releasing the latent energy known as the "coiled serpent," which is located at the base of the spine, is known as Kundalini awakening. The chakras are activated and balanced when this potent energy is aroused, which leads to a profound spiritual transformation. Even though the Kundalini awakening has the potential to be a profound and life-altering event, it is crucial to approach it with caution and under the direction of an experienced teacher.Awakening of the kundalini may be a potent instrument for change and personal growth. People may recognize and let go of old thinking and behavior patterns that do not serve them when the energy flows through the chakras. A stronger feeling of life purpose, more self-awareness, and more confidence can all result from this inner change process.In conclusion, Kundalini's awakening has the potential to be a deep and transforming experience that promotes personal development and change as well as an increase in spiritual consciousness. It is crucial to approach it cautiously and under the direction of a knowledgeable tutor, though.

  I’m not sure what the agreement between World Peace Yoga school and the hotel was, but I am certain that we could have gotten better quality food for the money we paid. When I booked this teacher training, I thought I would be okay with eating the same meal every day. But boy, was I wrong. We mainly had steamed or fried rice, French fries with vegetables, tofu and tempeh, and salad – mostly twice a day. Sometimes, you even found poorly washed salad or mold on your plate. I would have loved some more nutritious ingredients like quinoa, lentils, or other nuts instead of just peanuts, even if it was only every third day or so. Breakfast, however, was good!

  Another thing that bothered me was that the teacher training I had actually booked was completely different from what I experienced. The photos of the hotel and everything were nothing like what I ended up with. It seems like this program didn’t exist before. The title of the training I booked also included “Ayurveda,” so I expected a lot more discussion on that topic than the two lessons we had in the end. But despite all that, I am happy with what I learned and experienced! I just wanted to let the review-readers know that whatever you book, it might turn out completely different from what you expect (maybe it’s a good life lesson anyway). ? I really enjoyed learning from the teachers and deepening my knowledge about Yoga. Thank you, Ashu, for incorporating your Indian culture into your lessons, although there was a lot of storytelling that I sometimes struggled to connect with our initial topics. But I felt it was important to learn about the roots of Yoga.

  The schedule was packed, but that’s what I wanted so I could fully immerse myself in the experience. The quality of the lessons was exceptionally high, and the teachers were fully devoted to teaching us thoroughly – that was the most important thing to me! Thank you very much. ?? The hotel resort was spotlessly clean, and I absolutely loved the spacious room I had all to myself. The rooftop was the perfect spot for meditation, and having a small gym was a nice bonus too!

The beautiful setting in Bali added to the whole experience, but the real magic came from the incredible teachers. They taught us with so much passion and kept us engaged throughout.

  The teachers at the training were absolutely phenomenal. Their knowledge, passion, and the clarity with which they delivered information were unquestionable. I learned so much from them and they truly inspired me.

  And let’s talk about the food! The kitchen staff cooked us three fresh and varied meals a day, and let me tell you, they were delicious. I never had any issues with my stomach while I was there, which is a huge plus!

  The front of house staff were also amazing. They were always there to help with any questions or concerns we had, and they always had a solution. Everyone at the training was so kind, caring, respectful, and friendly. It really created such a positive and supportive environment.

  Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’m so grateful for this opportunity and I can’t wait to continue my learning journey in Kundalini Yoga.

  The yoga hall was dirty and the temperature constantly fluctuated due to the rooftop construction. I caught a cold after two days of rain. The props were incredibly filthy and emitted a strong unpleasant odor. The overall atmosphere of this school lacked positivity and felt too commercialized. Consequently, I didn’t complete the course due to these factors. Everyone in my group felt frustrated as well. Despite the expectation of a pleasant experience, it unfortunately didn’t turn out that way. On a positive note, the group itself was friendly and a few lessons managed to be enjoyable. I must admit, the school’s location and view were quite impressive.

  I regretted staying at the school. If you ask me, I would suggest paying just for the course and finding a different place to stay and eat. It would have made my experience much better and saved me money by eating out. I ended up eating out most of the time because the food and water at the school made the other students sick before I got there. The food wasn’t very balanced and lacked nutrition, mostly just carbs and oil. The accommodation was basic, and the bed was even harder than the wooden bed I had at Vipassana. If I had stayed at a hostel, I would have had a cleaner space, no curfew at 10:30pm, a comfy bed, and probably fewer nightmares. On the bright side, the teachers at the school were all amazing. I had the privilege of learning from Dr. Lata Ji, Sunil Ji, Kanna Ji, Dr. Himanshu Ji, Naveen Ji, and a special shoutout to Siddha Ji. Each teacher was extremely knowledgeable in their field and had a way of explaining things that really opened my mind. Every day, I felt grateful to be taught by such highly educated and intelligent individuals.

  There are no tools to clean, so you can’t mop or wash the sink in the room. The food was okay for the first two weeks, but then they started serving us the same things every day and I ended up eating out on the street every day… I thought I came here to get fitter, but instead I actually ended up gaining weight :/ On the bright side, I really liked the group of people who came to get certified with me. We all clicked really well and had a lot of fun. The days were busy and filled with excitement. My favorite classes were adjustment and alignment with Ashu, and anatomy with Himanshu. I also really enjoyed the philosophy class 🙂

The teachers are right in front of us, just like in a classroom. They address any questions or confusion right away. And can we talk about the teachers’ knowledge and professionalism? They’re top-notch. The main focus of the instruction is to make this experience fun while helping us develop skills like focus, confidence, and mind/body awareness. They really want us to become competent teachers who are healthy in mind, body, and spirit.

  The course provides well-researched and easy-to-understand materials. I know I’ll walk away from this course fully prepared to take on any challenges life throws at me. Being a part of this online course has been a pleasure, especially since it’s their first one. I’m so impressed that my wife and I are planning to go there for an in-person course once Covid-19 is over. We can’t wait to meet Guruji and the other teachers face-to-face.

  I’ve already signed up for a Tantra course and I’m planning to continue with more courses. I feel like I’ve started a lifelong journey.

They have so much wisdom not just about yoga, but also about life itself. I really enjoyed learning from Guru Vishnu Ji, who taught me how to live a healthy lifestyle and practice meditation. Even though I couldn’t be physically present with them, I could still feel their positive energy and vibes. I highly recommend this school to anyone who wants to take their yoga practice to the next level.

  Everything was perfect. If I have to mention something to improve, the internet connection in India was not optimal. It gave us some minor issues during the online course for one day, and it was out of anyone’s control. However, World Peace Yoga School had already anticipated and found solutions for this. As a bonus, we received all the recordings of the classes! So, I can do my Tantra Yoga practices over and over and over again! I highly recommend taking an online course, right from the comfort of your own home!

  Originally, I was supposed to travel to India for the 200-hour yoga teacher training course. However, due to the Corona virus, I had to postpone it, hopefully to next year. Instead, I decided to participate in a 3-day online course in Tantra Yoga. Let me tell you, it’s amazing to see how World Peace Yoga School is able to offer such high-standard education online! The teachers have an extensive amount of knowledge and their energy is absolutely beautiful! I cannot put into words how incredible this course was; it was such an amazing experience!

  I wholeheartedly recommend this professional school that also has this warm family/community feeling to everyone! I can’t wait until I have the opportunity to go there in person for a full course. This online course made me realize that I made the right choice in selecting this school for my future 200-hour course. Furthermore, Tantra Yoga is a beautiful part of yoga that I highly recommend. The divine energy we were able to experience through our practices was overwhelmingly beautiful! I have nothing but love and respect for this school, the teachers, and the fellow students! Namaste!

  The Internet in India can be quite temperamental, so we had to be patient. But it wasn’t a problem, we always managed to fix it, although it was challenging.

  Now, let’s talk about the course. It was an online course that covered accommodation and food. And let me tell you, it was fantastic! The course was split into two parts: theory and practical. And I enjoyed both parts! However, I must admit that the theory can be a bit difficult to grasp if you don’t have any prior knowledge of Hindu gods and goddesses.

  But the practical classes, oh boy, they were simply incredible! Each day, I felt completely cleansed, replenished, and filled with love. The teachers delivered these classes with confidence and deep knowledge, and they truly inspired me. It’s amazing how they could convey that kind of energy through a screen, and it’s a true testament to the school and the course.

  I would definitely recommend this course to my friend and I encourage everyone to approach it with an open mind. I learned so much that I can incorporate into my own practice and teaching.

  Lastly, I want to mention how wonderful it was to connect with people from all around the world during this time. It really added a special touch to the whole experience.

  I loved every bit of it! Vishnu gives an amazing overview of the symbolism of Tantra. He believes that not understanding the symbolism leads to misunderstandings and emphasizes that the ultimate goal is Union, much like any great teaching. He is incredibly knowledgeable but also has a unique ability to connect with his students, even in online settings.

  Radha’s Tantra flow class is absolutely beautiful. She takes everyone on a profound journey into the world of Tantric practices, immersing them in its powerful vibrations.

  I’m currently enrolled in the 200-hour teacher training, where I’m receiving thorough instruction on Tantra and Yoga. The team at World Peace Yoga is simply fantastic. Once you join their family, it’s truly a transformative experience!

  I didn’t really find anything interesting. The previous course I took gave me certain expectations for this one, but let me tell you, this course completely surpassed them. It’s on a whole new level. It feels like being in a classroom with the teachers right in front of us. They address any questions or confusion right away, just like in a regular classroom. And let’s not forget about the teachers’ knowledge and professionalism. The main focus of the instruction is to make the experience enjoyable while also encouraging skills like focus, confidence, and mind/body awareness. This ensures that the teachers we become are healthy in all aspects. The course provides well-researched and easy-to-understand material. I’m confident that I’ll leave this course prepared to face any challenges that come my way. Being a part of this online course, especially since it’s their first one, has been a pleasure. I’m so impressed that my wife and I plan on attending a course in person once Covid-19 is over, just to meet Guruji and the other teachers. I’ve already signed up for a Tantra course and I plan on taking more in the future. This feels like the start of a lifelong journey. The professionalism and clarity with which the course was presented has left me convinced that this is a new beginning for World Peace Yoga School. May God bless this school.

  The facilities at this school were absolutely terrible. We had mold growing out of the walls, no cleanliness whatsoever, and the food consisted only of carbs. The kitchen was disgustingly dirty. There were four of us in our class, three of whom lived on campus, and we all got extremely sick. The female dorm didn’t even have hot water, and there was a water outage at least once a day. The staff was incredibly impolite and spent all their time on their phones. Even the owner was on his phone during kirtan. We went there to get a 300-hour certification, but we didn’t even come close. We barely got half the hours required and only received a certificate for that. This school is a complete scam and shouldn’t be allowed to provide certification. They definitely don’t meet the requirements set by Yoga Alliance.

  Thankfully, BookYogaRetreats came to our aid and helped us in our quest for a refund. We were only able to get a very small refund from the school and a refund of the commission from BookYogaRetreats. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. However, I will say that the location was very convenient, and we had easy access to everything. The classes on anatomy, Hatha, and alignment were good, and the teachers were knowledgeable.

  I sometimes had a hard time with the heat during summer, especially when there were power cuts. However, that’s totally out of the school’s control. I can’t even find the words to express how happy and grateful I am for choosing this School! From the very beginning, everyone made sure the school felt like home to us – a home far away from home – and I truly appreciate that. The Training syllabus is exceptional, and all the subjects are fascinating and relevant for anyone looking to delve deeper into the ancient knowledge of Yoga after the 200hr. This wouldn’t be possible without the amazing, professional, and inspirational Teachers and Founder. You can see how Yoga is a part of their daily lives. The Staff, both at reception and in the kitchen, are incredibly friendly and helpful. They’re always ready to assist with a smile. The atmosphere and energy of the place are really nice too. It feels light and bright, and the school has a beautiful garden area and a big balcony with a view of the mountains. The classrooms are clean and fully equipped. I want to thank each and every one of you for making this transformational experience in my life so special. Thanks to all of you, I now feel like I have a home in Rishikesh. If I ever decide to pursue another Yoga Training, this would definitely be the place. If you’re looking for an authentic, enriching, and transformative Yoga experience, this is definitely the place to be!

  Unfortunately, the yoga classes were taught in Lithuanian due to a last-minute change of teachers, even though they were announced in English. However, thanks to a highly capable translator and a dedicated yoga teacher, we managed to make the best of it! Overall, it was a wonderful stay in Lithuania. The accommodations were decent, but the food was fantastic – we had fresh vegan meals every day. The sessions with Vishnu Pranighari were incredibly valuable. And the yoga instruction provided by a Lithuanian yoga teacher greatly enriched my yoga practice.

  Nothing really disappointed me. I knew the ashram wouldn’t be a fancy 5-star hotel, but it had everything I needed. When I went in December, it was a bit colder than I expected, but I had enough blankets to stay warm. The hot water for showers didn’t last long, but that was fine because the cold water actually helped wake me up in the mornings! The 200 hour Kundalini yoga teacher training went beyond my expectations. The staff and teachers were amazing – so knowledgeable and friendly. They felt like family. Despite the intensive schedule (waking up at 5am and going to bed at 10pm), I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the spiritual side of yoga. We had plenty of opportunities to practice meditation, asanas, and more with the group. And we even had enough free time to explore the town and have some fun!

  We only spent 10 minutes on teaching methodology. Honestly, I thought we should spend more time discussing how to build a sequence, maintain the correct postures during practice, and what to do before and after each session. I think it would be better if we started focusing on this from the second week and asked the students to practice for 30 minutes every day, providing constructive feedback. I joined this course to become a teacher, not just to practice yoga every day.

  Regarding feedback, as a student, I would appreciate constructive criticism from the teachers instead of just hearing “very good”. I want to know how I am progressing and what I can improve on. Throughout the course, we asked for constructive feedback multiple times, but the response was always “very good”.

  As a yogi, I expected the food to be bland or at least not spicy. However, the food served for lunch and dinner was always the same, with the only variation being chapati during dinner. The meals were heavy and contained a lot of black peppers. I requested bland food but ended up eating boiled carrots and potatoes for a month. As a yogi, I believe food should nourish my body, mind, and soul.

  In my opinion, the manual should include adjustments for each pose. The anatomy section should provide general information about each bodily system. Currently, the explanations of muscles are not thorough enough. The manual should also include postures that can be done based on certain diseases or muscle imbalances, such as herniated discs.

  Thanks to this experience, I delved deeper into myself and changed my perspective on life and the world. I learned various breathing techniques that enhance my daily life. I gained new skills and knowledge that I will share with others. Furthermore, I learned how to coexist with people from different countries and how to share communal spaces like the dining room and my personal room. Overall, it was a great experience as I was able to be myself without anyone pressuring me to change or be someone else. I am truly grateful for the time and knowledge shared by each teacher.

  The course timetable and what’s included in it, as well as the location and accommodation, were falsely advertised. We had fewer teaching hours than we expected and no teaching methodology was covered at all. This resulted in a disappointing and tense atmosphere, which was definitely not very yogic. I would not recommend this course, as it felt more like a Yin intensive rather than a proper teacher training.

  I absolutely loved everything about my experience at World Peace Yoga School in Rishikesh. Even though the living conditions were a bit humbling compared to what I’m used to, I embraced it as part of the overall experience and felt completely safe the entire time. Some students had complaints about the food, but you can’t please everyone. Personally, I’m usually picky, but I had no complaints at all. Plus, there are always local cafes and restaurants where you can enjoy a full meal for less than $4 USD.

  I can’t fully express how wonderful and fulfilling my 200hr yoga certification course was at World Peace Yoga School. From the moment I arrived, I felt at home. Guru Vishnu, the owner, greeted us at the entrance, and a volunteer helped us with our luggage and showed us to our rooms. Everyone there is so kind and quickly becomes a friend. I truly deepened my belief in and knowledge of yoga.

  Initially, I had concerns about taking the yoga course in Rishikesh instead of doing it weekly back in NYC, but I was blown away and incredibly grateful that I chose to complete my certification here. The teachers are the absolute best and have a wealth of knowledge. Classes start early in the morning and go until late evening, six days a week. It’s physically and mentally challenging, but the rewards are worth it.

  I could go on and on about all the amazing people and experiences at World Peace Yoga School, but there’s not enough space here, haha. I’m excited to continue my yoga journey and complete my 300hr course here, hopefully within the next year or two. I can’t wait to apply all that I’ve learned at home!

The place we stayed at was okay, but it wasn’t worth the amount of money we paid. It was really difficult to communicate because the staff didn’t speak English. It felt like they were laughing and talking about us behind our backs. We had to wake up the staff at 7:30 AM and they were sleeping on the floor of the dining room, which was strange. The person who took us to the Beatles Ashram hadn’t been there before and didn’t even know who the Beatles were, can you believe that? We ended up exploring on our own for most days.

I only went on three excursions, even though I was there for five days and should have had two more. Talking to other people I met, I realized that I paid a lot more and they seemed much happier in their accommodations. The staff didn’t provide any advice or help with the trips. I was the only one on the retreat that week, and I was made to feel like a nuisance. It seemed like they took my money at the beginning and that was the end of it.

The yoga instructor at the retreat wasn’t great and taught us like we were in a teacher training program. He kept repeating himself.

  WPY couldn’t provide what I signed up for and didn’t refund my deposit, even though they were the ones who messed up. I felt like I got scammed and won’t be coming back or recommending the school. The food on Christmas night was good and extravagant.

  During a 15-day stay, half of the fee covers classes and meals, while the other half is for accommodation. At this price (600 euros per month), you will have a shared room with a bathroom. The bathroom is very dirty (even though it may seem clean for India), the sheets and towels were all very stained, and the blankets and pillows smelled really bad. Plastic littered the garden beds and old laundry was forgotten. I won’t even mention the dishwashing area, which was frankly disgusting and revolting (dishes drained in old juice) and the osmosis water filter was spitting yellow (do not drink the water!!). Basically, for a price close to European rates, you get a dump. Otherwise, you can find accommodation of the same quality three times cheaper nearby. If you still plan to sleep there, don’t forget your towel and pillow if you have room! Quality education, very interesting classes.

They should be paid a lot better (especially considering the price we pay to go there) and have rooms with fewer people and air conditioning. The energy of the people you meet at a yoga retreat is absolutely beautiful. I learned a lot from all my classmates, and we were constantly sharing questions and positive energy. I changed both physically and mentally, becoming much more flexible and learning how to live in the present, which I love.

  India isn’t the cleanest or most organized country, but if you have a good attitude, you’ll enjoy it a lot. Honestly, it all depends on you. It’s a complete experience, and I highly recommend it. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience.

  When they deliver the rooms, several people complain that there weren’t any bed linens or towels. The quarters look nice in the pictures, but in reality, there are no towels or sheets and they’re not very clean. You ask the staff about it and they are very nice, but everything is very grimy and looks like it’s been used a lot. You even have to buy your own toilet paper. When you try to wash your clothes, they take forever to dry because there’s nowhere to hang them and it’s uncomfortable to have them laying around in the room. If they fixed these details, the stay would be wonderful.

  The teachers at this school are really good, and it’s great to interact with classmates from all over the world. The location of the school is good. All the staff at the school are very friendly in general.

  My shower was cold and didn’t work well, but the rest of the room was great! The staff was friendly and helpful. There’s a hardworking cleaning staff that keeps the school clean. The food was excellent with plenty of options to try. The teachers were fun and explained the content clearly. They really care about our education.

  The teachers at the school are very knowledgeable and welcome any questions or doubts you may have. The food is always delicious and ready for you to eat, and the chef is kind and willing to accommodate your needs. The rooms are spacious with a good working fan and the option to add air conditioning. The staff is always ready to help you, answer questions, and provide the best experience possible. The views from the common areas are absolutely breathtaking and worth seeing. I had an amazing journey and grew so much as a person. I came out with more knowledge and wisdom than I expected and felt blessed to be a part of the Work Peace Yoga School family.

  However, many students experienced diarrhea while staying, unsure if it was due to adjusting to India or just general food issues. The teachers teach enthusiastically and embody a yogi lifestyle and mindset. They have created a stimulating environment that encourages discussion among students. I have learned a lot about myself and life during my time here. Additionally, they go beyond the official 200-hr requirement and teach us about Ayurveda (which I love!) and yoga therapy (part of the 300-hr program), among other things.

  The electricity kept going out, but I could handle it.

  We didn’t have water for days, and it was tough, but I got through it.

  I slipped and fell on the stairs because there were no railings. When I told the staff about it, they just laughed and blamed the language barrier. Unacceptable.

  The lack of cleanliness in the kitchen made everyone sick. Unacceptable.

  The rooms and bathrooms were filthy. Unacceptable.

  The Sunday excursion was a mess, but I guess that’s India for you.

  I don’t want to keep talking about this horrible experience, but the teachers were the one bright spot in all of it.

  I had to adjust to walking on Laxman Jhula bridge on the first day, with scooters, monkeys, cows, and people in a rush. But that’s just part of the experience and now that I’m back, I really miss it all.

  After getting used to the chaos on the streets, I discovered the magic of Rishikesh. The power of the river Ganga can be felt on the beaches, with its sound and energy making you understand why it’s considered divine.

  In the evenings, the mountains surrounding Rishikesh look like black clouds against the grey sky, while the town echoes with prayers from the ashrams. The people here are amazing – they’re not driven by money, they’re welcoming and spiritual.

  The yoga teachers are fantastic, well-prepared and able to help you correct your postures in a very professional manner. I definitely plan on returning to this incredible place.
