Kick start the New Year with this grounding Kundalini sequence that will engage your Root Chakra. Sarah leads a short mantra entitled “I call on my highest and best Self” and continues with several kriyas including life nerve stretch and rapid breath of fire. In addition to strengthening and toning your muscles, these exercises balance the right and left hemispheres of the brain and bring about harmony between acceptance and it’s “shadow side,” resentment.
I love these kundalini sessions. And this one seemed to come along at just the right time for me. Keep them coming. You guys are doing a wonderful job.
Thank you

WONDERFUL way to begin the New Year. BLESS YOU ALL for donating to Haiti!! Hugs, Nan
Fantastic, thank you so much.
Thank YOU all for your beautiful comments and being a part of our sweet community of yogis. To answer your question Marquetta, yes! this is the first of a series of seven breakout sessions Sarah plans to teach focusing on the seven chakras:)
[...] that I should do some yoga to calm my nerves. I found on blog.YogaToday.com a short session, called Engaging Muladhara, the Root Chakra… “…these exercises balance the right and left hemispheres of the brain and bring [...]
this was great – a show finally to focus on the secret energy centers!
When she does more of them, Sarah should were the color that is associated with the chakras!
Love having these shorter sequences on crazy days so I can still do yoga everyday!
I’m watching this for a second day to pick up what I missed yesterday. It would help to have the text for the mantra in your description for us visual folks. I also wondered if for each of the movements is the root chakra to be engaged on inhale and released on exhale? Sarah seems to mention it specifically for some, but not all.
Thank you,
Beth
HI Beth
Thank you for watching and practicing with
us! Yes, having the mantra in text will
definitely help you out! I normally give
explicit directions on when to engage
the root chakra. It varies with the different
kriyas! Simply practice engaging your root
on inhalation and release on exhalation!
Otherwise i do specify.
Namaste

Thanks for these encouraging lessons. I’m happy to have found this site. I’m getting back to things after a 4 year hiatus from any serious yoga structure – life interfering. My thoughts and physical capabilities changed during this practice.
The spiritual, emotional and physical practice/cleansing translates fine by the way on the videos. I was skeptical at first but you do a great job.
Best and Namaste,
Kim
Really wonderful class. Thank you Sarah for sharing Kundalini yoga with us – it seems so beneficial in so many ways! Namaste
thanks very much – it’s so … grounded.
This was a truly wonderful class, Sarah! You’re such a calming presence and this was a very grounding and emotion-filled class. I love the kundalini sessions!
Really wonderful class. Thank you
I love this video. I’ve been using it a couple of times a week and it gives me peace and focus. Oddly, the fact that my abs have tightened quickly – a big goal a month ago – now seems secondary. Thank you, Sarah.
Lisa,
thank you for watching and practicing with
us! we appreciate your feedback! yes, isn’t
it wonderful that the abs tightening become
secondary! You are on your way to greatness!
Namaste

Yes, thank you so much. Sat Nam.
This class was very helpful for me. I had been doing classes from Yoga Today last year, but faced some different challenges and got out of the routine. I am in my sixties and find many of the blogs are more accessible for me. This class helped me feel what I have been missing and left me just really hungry to continue. Thanks so much. Sharon
I am a big fan. My question is how much liberty can be taken in kundalini kriya? (i.e. bent and straight leg body drops) Do people make up new ones?
And why no sanskrit names?
I love Sarah’s information on the exercises. Sat Nam!
Beth,
Great question! You must adjust to fit your
body’s needs! So if bent legs work for you
so be it, and your body will open up!
thank you for practicing with us on Yogatoday!
Namaste,
sarah kline
Lovely class. I loved what Sarah said about the body being it’s own pharmasutical (sp?) company…we just need to know how to access it! Very grounding and uplifting.
Robin,
thank you for your comments and support.
The body can act as our own pharmaceutical
company…it’s up to us to know which glands
secrete which hormones and for what purpose!
Kundalini has taught me more about my glands
than any health class in school ever did!
namaste,
sarah kline
Always fascinated with yoga positions that help balance our chakras. The muladhara chakra is important to have activated, keeps us grounded and connected with mother earth through our sciatic nerve.
