Cindy’s Awakening: External Kumbhak, Spine & Breath

Background

I, Guru Sanju, guided Cindy through a complete healing session centered on nervous-system regulation, postural correction, childhood trauma release, and breath-based energy cultivation. Cindy reported better sleep and felt calmer than before, yet carried an old hurt from school days (before any epilepsy-like symptoms), which lived as tension in her body and mind. I led her to retrieve that memory safely, feel it in the body, and discharge the stored charge through structured blow exhalation and slow mouth exhalations. We then corrected her workspace posture and lumbar support, activated the spinal curve, and built flexibility with a conscious spine-breath drill. For mid-day fatigue, I taught a four-step Energy Booster combining fast exhalations/inhalations and coordinated arm work. I transmitted energy and trained Cindy in external kumbhak (breath-hold after exhale), measured her control pause at 27 seconds (a strong sign of internal health), and guided palming, silence, and the glimpse of samadhi—the blank, effortless stillness. This discourse compiles the entire process as a self-contained practice.

Opening the Field: Present State and Breath

I begin by checking Cindy’s progress: “Feeling better than before? How is your sleep quality?” She answers, improved.
I invite her to close her eyes and connect to breath. A few deep breaths. I ask, “Is any thought or energy disturbing you now, or are you simply calm and peaceful?” She is calm.

Practice

• Sit comfortably. Close your eyes.
• Take several smooth nasal inhales and relaxed exhales.
• Notice any disturbance; if calm, remain with the breath.

Returning to Childhood: Naming the First Knot

I guide Cindy to revisit childhood, moving backward from the present to locate any event that should not have happened—even something seemingly small like body shaming or an argument—that she does not want to keep in her system. This is much earlier than any epilepsy-like experiences.

I ask about physical or mental abuse (family, relatives, friends, strangers) and the approximate age. She describes being singled out and mocked by female friends; teachers watched her with an evaluating gaze from seventh to tenth standard, which she did not like.

Inner Inquiry

• With eyes closed, recall one unjust childhood incident.
• Name the scene and age.
• Feel how your body holds it now.

Reclaiming Voice: The Present Self Meets the Past

I ask Cindy: “If this happened now, as the mature person you are, how would you respond? What would you say or do?”
I instruct her to imagine those people in front of her and express everything—words, tone, posture—until her energy feels complete.

Practice

• Stand in a private space.
• Picture the people vividly.
• Speak your truth fully. If you need to shout, shout. Move the body as the energy demands.
• Continue until the emotional charge softens.

Somatic Release: Blow Exhalation and Slow Mouth Exhalation

I explain: when the subconscious serves up hurt, it reveals suppressed energy still lodged in the nervous system. Medical labeling may miss subtle energetic causes—symptom pictures can mimic epilepsy, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, or a general nervous-system dysregulation. If that small stuck part blocks circuitry, you must surface it and release it.

Technique — Blow Exhalation

• Place one or both hands on the diaphragm and belly (the traumatic region).
• Inhale gently through the nose.
• Exhale through the mouth as a strong, focused blow, pressing the belly/diaphragm inward to help expel stale air and emotion.
• Repeat for multiple breaths, maintaining intent to remove and get out the charge.

Follow with Slow Mouth Exhalation

• After the strong blows, take 5–10 rounds: inhale slowly through the nose, then exhale slowly through the mouth until the belly fully deflates.
• Continue until you feel markedly more relaxed. The count does not matter—feeling guides completion.

State Check: Silence and Inner Sensing

I ask Cindy to sit in silence, become aware of breath, and feel the body’s signals—energy, vibration, thoughts, or thoughtlessness. She senses the hurt energy has gone. Good. Eyes may open softly.

Mapping Energies: Chakras, Emotions, and Boundaries

I teach her to diagnose the nature of a thought and where it lives:

• Root: fear, insecurity.
• Sacral: guilt, shame, blame, depression.
• Solar plexus: anxiety, frustration, anger, jealousy—often outward energies that people “throw” at others.

When people behave harshly, notice they are throwing those qualities. You need not absorb them. Strengthen your field—your shield—through daily practices. Over six to twelve months, this shield matures so negativity cannot penetrate.

Workspace Audit: Ergonomics for Nervous-System Health

I ask about Cindy’s work: eight hours daily with a flexible 15–20-minute break. I need to see how she normally sits.

Posture Correction

• Sit upright with chest lifted, not drooping.
• Keep the spine long and the natural lumbar curve intact.
• Place a small pillow or a rolled towel/cloth ball at the lower back against the chair to maintain the curve.
• Close your eyes briefly and feel the difference with and without the support; prioritize felt improvement over instruction alone.

Key Cues

• Hands may rest on thighs; gently raise the sternum with fingertips to sense uplift.
• Slight chin tuck to lengthen the back of the neck.
• Breathe in each position and notice how breath quality changes.
• The central nervous system—brain and spine—requires postural integrity. Long-term forward head/phone posture collapses the chest and drags shoulders; counteract it daily.

Spine as Life-Axis: Conscious Curve and Flexibility

I teach a short, potent spine practice—think of a coconut tree with resilient tensile strength.

Spinal Curve Breathing Drill

• Sit on your legs or in a steady seat.
• Inhale through the nose while moving the head and upper body gently back, accentuating the natural lumbar curve.
• Exhale through the mouth as you bring head/torso forward, rounding the spine (front curve).
• Move to your comfortable extremes consciously, following the entire spine from tailbone upward.
• Repeat at least five conscious breaths per round; perform 3–4 rounds a day or short 5-minute sets whenever you feel.
• Over ~100 days, expect better circulation in vertebrae and paraspinal tissues, a flexible, lighter state, and a healthier nervous system.

After several rounds, raise the arms, sense spinal length, spread the chest, and test for residual stiffness. Cindy reports increased flexibility—good. Continue the pre-sleep and post-wake micro-movements I already gave her, and add this drill through the day as felt.

Mid-Day Recharge: The Four-Step Energy Booster

This protocol jump-starts low energy without side effects. Avoid immediately after heavy food; wait ~30–40 minutes if you’ve just eaten. It works in brief breaks and scales with duration.

Step One — Rapid Mouth Exhalation (Blow)

• Perform fast blow exhalations through the mouth, belly actively pressing in.
• Do 10–20 rapid cycles or more, as needed.

Step Two — Rapid Nasal Inhalation (Suction-Like)

• Inhale quickly through the nose, as if sucking air in.
• Exhalation happens naturally between inhalations, but the focus is on fast nasal inhales.
• Keep the abdominal wall responsive.

Step Three — Blow Exhalation with Arm Pulls

• Coordinate the same blow exhalation with dynamic armwork: draw the arms down and slightly back from shoulder height to about chest/solar-plexus level as you blow out.
• Hands travel from near shoulder line down to the upper abdomen level; feel the spine participate.

Step Four — Forceful Nasal Exhalation with Armwork

• Using the same arm path, forcefully exhale through the nose.
• Think: “Full throw from the nose,” synchronized with the downward arm sweep.

Flowing the Four

• Close your eyes and cycle through steps without breaks—let the body choose when to transition (e.g., ~10 breaths per step).
• Continue for 3–5 minutes (or up to 15 if time allows).
• Then lie down on your back and rest quietly.

Cindy practices the sequence; afterward she drinks water and reports a literal switch on: alert, ready to work, no heaviness. I remind her: brief hourly recharges—two minutes of steps three and four—keep cellular batteries topped up, especially during Kundalini processes that can feel heavy or lethargic.

Energy Transmission and External Kumbhak Training

I offer a strong energy transmission and instruct Cindy in external kumbhak (breath-hold after exhale). She will practice this at least ten times a day, gradually integrating more.

External Kumbhak (Exhale-Hold) — Measurement and Method

• Control Pause Test: Inhale gently through the nose, exhale through the nose, then hold after exhale. Keep the belly still. When the first definite air hunger appears, stop the hold.
• Cindy’s control pause is 27 seconds, indicating very good internal condition, strong immunity, and health potential.
• Morning measurements (about an hour after waking) are key—track daily in a notebook.
• Daily Practice:
  • Inhale–exhale through the nose, hold comfortably (no strain).
  • Allow a few natural breaths.
  • Repeat for five minutes in the morning; extend duration gradually as capacity grows.
  • Keep attention at the third eye; do not let the belly move during holds.

As control pause approaches and exceeds the 30s range, systemic healing accelerates.

Palming, Silence, and the Glimpse of Samadhi

During the post-transmission rest Cindy feels warmth in the palms—signs of improved prana and circulation to nerve endings. I guide palming:

Palming

• Rub hands (if needed) to awaken warmth.
• Cup each palm over the corresponding eye, letting darkness and warmth bathe the optic nerves.
• Keep gentle focus at the third eye.
• Remain for ~2 minutes; notice breath deepening on its own.

Complete Silence

• One minute of total non-doing—no observation, no effort.
• Cindy opens her eyes and reports blankness—nothing. I confirm: this is samadhi’s doorway. If you consistently end practice here, my transmitted energy finds you more easily and your progress quickens.

Integrating the Journey and Next Steps

I reassure Cindy: her current internal drive is rare and precious. Maintain morning external-kumbhak tracking, spine practice, and periodic Energy Booster cycles during work hours. When you feel a distinct inner shift, the journey naturally moves to its next level.

For now:

• Keep the workspace posture: chest up, lumbar curve supported, chin slightly tucked.
• Correct phone posture often; perform counter-stretches many times daily.
• Use blow exhalation to clear any resurgent hurt.
• Strengthen the energetic shield with daily practices; over six–twelve months it becomes a reliable field.
• Note that labels like epilepsy may overlap with patterns of fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, or generalized nervous-system dysregulation—our work addresses the root circuitry.

Sessions resume Wednesday. Until then, implement, feel, record, and let the blank stillness find you at the end of each practice.
