Kundalini is the coiled up, dormant, cosmic power that underlies all organic and inorganic matter within us and any thesis that deals with it can avoid becoming too abstract, only with great difficulty. But within the following pages, the theory that underlies this cosmic power has been analysed to its thinnest filaments, and practical methods have been suggested to awaken this great pristine force in individuals.


The literature has emphasized the efficacy of using Kundalini Yoga in trauma treatment, as it has been found to reduce PTSD symptomatology and increase overall well-being in its practitioners.


It's not obvious as day and night, but I have CPTSD.

kuṇḍalinī, in some Tantric (esoteric) forms of Yoga, the cosmic energy that is believed to lie within everyone, pictured as a coiled serpent lying at the base of the spine. In the practice of Laya Yoga (“Union of Mergence”), the adept is instructed to awaken the kuṇḍalinī, also identified with the deity Shakti. Through a series of techniques that combine prescribed postures, gestures, and breathing exercises, the practitioner brings the kuṇḍalinī up along the spine to his head. On the way the kuṇḍalinī passes through six imagined centres, or cakras. When the kuṇḍalinī arrives at the seventh cakra, at the top of the head, the practitioner experiences an overwhelming and indescribable feeling of bliss that mystically represents the practitioner’s reintegration with atman, or the eternal essence of the self. - www.britannica.com
