Kundalini Awakening Crisis Resources
If you suspect you are having a kundalini awakening and are overwhelmed by the energy here are some invaluable resources and people that offer specialized support. What you will hear over and over again is to surrender to the energy. I cannot stress this enough.
Fully allow the energy to move through you whether it is shaking, thrashing, rushing or any other movement. In the moment these movements can feel scary but as long as you know and trust that these energies have your best interests at heart it will make opening to it much easier. The sooner you completely let go of trying to influence, control or restrict its movement the sooner you will begin to experience this transformation without unnecessary stress and discomfort.
A lot of times when things begin to get really intense what is needed is to just lay down and relax in to the space around what is happening within. Another word of this is your space of being. Developing this spaciousness allows you to occupy what is happening from the perspective of the witness.
You begin to grasp that you have a body and that you have a mind rather than you are the body and the mind. You will start evolving away from the mentality of the victim and towards that of the observing presence. This process is made a lot more difficult because often times our minds will be unwilling to submit to the energy and to take a back seat.
If you were like me your mind cannot conceive of anything bigger or more powerful than itself. It is this confusion and stubbornness of the intellect that can cause a tremendous amount of resistance which leads to the most challenging scenarios of suffering. Over time you will begin to notice and feel that once you relax and surrender to the energy and start to live in right relationship to it with trust and love that some where deep within you already knows that not only is this not ruining your life but that you wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Kara-Leah just has this beautiful grounded and centered essence. She speaks and writes about the Kundalini process with such wisdom and grace. I always seemed to find one of her videos or articles exactly when I needed to. She also created the very popular yoga website The Yoga Lunchbox.

Victor Oddo
Victor has been a very special and important person in my Kundalini process. In the early stages when I wasn’t sure exactly what I was going through I found Victor’s Youtube videos and they really helped put me at ease. Victor has such a magnetic and captivating energy and his videos are often very entertaining as well as being very informative. He is so grounded and down to earth and really knows how to make the listener feel normal. Because let’s face it this can be a crazy ride! I posted a couple of his videos below that are especially helpful for someone who is just starting the process.Carolyn went through a particularly harsh awakening. She has a wealth of knowledge for any one who is struggling or feeling hopeless. I reached out to her when I was going through a very traumatic episode and I found her to be very reassuring and supportive. Below I posted a video for anyone having an exceptionally tough time.
Calmdownmind.com truly saved my life. By the grace of the universe I found my way to this article when I was almost finished. In some remarkable and fitting way this website and the information contained within encapsulate some of the sagest advice I have come across for someone dealing with a traumatic Kundalini awakening and the website doesn’t mention Kundalini Awakenings at all. It is a beautiful exhibition and affirmation to the Truth. Below I posted a few articles that were the most influential in terms of leading me to the surrendered state which is really when your experience of the energy begins to change from fearful and resistant to grateful and open.
