But more generally, meditation, breathwork, physical exercise, taking a cold shower, and self care, can all grounding practices if utilized to ground.

I personally like a sensory grounding.
Identify:
5 things you can see.
4 things you can touch.
3 you can hear.
2 you can smell.
1 you can taste.

This pulls your focus not only into your body, but also your physical space. AND bridges connection between physical space, your senses, and your focus.

I’m hyped, fascinated to read about this perspective on kundalini.

My first book was “KUNDALINI TANTRA - Swami Satyananda Saraswati” which aligned great with my more yogic perspective, if you are interested. lots of techniques organized my chakras to explore.

Ooh that has me intrigued I will check it out! ty ✨

Thanks, it’s a pretty lonely hermity path but I’ve come to accept it and find it suits me. When I’m able to step out of dramatic cycles and patterns of waiting it’s pretty zen.

and I’ve found enough people randomly to talk about this stuff when I thought I was totally losing my mind.
December 6, 2024 at 7:01 PM
Oh wonderful! My primary teachers thus far have been inner and/or formless, so i’m a bit jealous of you!
December 6, 2024 at 6:55 PM
Thanks for the talk it’s been very validating of my path so far! keep it up, just be sure to identify impatience vs if it’s time to speed things up. If it feels right, and you trust yourself then by all means :)

do you know yet where you plan to explore or investigate speeding it up?

Dove deeper into western esotericism from there especially chaos magic as a meta/belief based system that’s flexible, has fit me well. I’d say my practice is largely sorcery and intuitive breathwork and somatics. I now do a lot of vision and trance work channeling entities and higher self etc too.
December 6, 2024 at 6:48 PM
Yes that’s actually how I started. I read through a kundalini book right after my breakthrough and worked through a lot of kriya exercises it had. That did a lot of priming and aligning my chakra and energy system, gave me a solid grounding to navigate where I had landed.

Stuff comes up to deal with, and you figure out how to deal with it and process, accept and let go. not easy but very rewarding.

I use a lot of metta meditation to cultivate self love, ho’ophonopono for self forgiveness.

At the end of the day Indint really know how to describe it other than I kinda sit and stare at it. feel through the discomfort, accepting the block and trying breath through it and relax through it.
December 6, 2024 at 6:42 PM
Completely agree, and on this note I feel it took me several years to fully integrate after my first breakthrough experience on psychedelics and those two years were very on the edge of delusion. I was fortunate to be in a situation where I could keep myself grounded until I learned to integrate.
December 6, 2024 at 6:40 PM
I will also say that psychedelics kinda bust the doors of perception open so it can really expose you to what your blocks are and if you aren’t ready with energy management techniques it can be a lot to take on.

I also believe in partial risings, and incomplete risings. Looking at it from the perspective of creative energy and channeling creative energy into my work and art and life as a method of working.

I think that we are always expanding our capacity to chanel creative energy so long as we practice.
December 6, 2024 at 6:29 PM
It’s been great, I personally take a multifaceted perspective on the matter, so I don’t just look at the kundalini perspective as I know working through my traumas and energy blocks, it will rise naturally when it is time.

Psilocybin and Cannabis paired with meditation has been my primary tech.
December 6, 2024 at 6:28 PM
I am yes! I had been focused on it pretty exclusively for a few years and exploring lots of plant medicine/trance states.
December 6, 2024 at 6:21 PM
honestly you’re inspiring me to share more of my daily experiences!

Is there somewhere I can get one of these?
