Kundalini Head Overload to Calm Nervous System in 30 Days

Part of my Kundalini and Mental Health guide · Teachings by Guru Sanju

Background

The purpose of this work was not only to calm his system in the moment, but to give him a complete, structured sequence he could practice independently, repeat for at least 30 days, and eventually teach to others. This sequence is designed to balance the nostrils, activate the vagus nerve, increase the space element in the body, rejuvenate the brain and nervous system, and cleanse blocked energy channels so Kundalini can flow freely without getting stuck in the head.

What follows is the same teaching I gave him, now presented as a clear written discourse.

A Special Session for High Head Energy

In that session, I told him very clearly: this was a special meeting in many ways, because I had the solution for his high energy going into the head.

I said to him: I would mainly teach him; I would not make him meditate in the usual way. Along with any inner work, he needed to learn the techniques. That was the main agenda of the session.

I also told him that after the session I would send a PDF where the basic points and sequence of steps were written, so that he could refer to the structure. Earlier, I had shared a reference video with the same sequence; what I am giving here in writing is that same guidance in full detail.

I emphasized that this was the next level of practice for him, and that the most important ingredient for this practice was his attention. His attention would determine how he was getting benefited in a new way from these techniques.

I told him I would try to teach the steps as clearly and as fast as possible so that, at the end, we would have at least ten minutes where he could perform the whole sequence in my presence and receive energy transmission from me while doing it. After that, there would be no issue: he would already know the steps.

I asked him to first learn and practice for three days on his own. After that, he would implement the same sequence regularly for his wife. It would be as if he was taking a session for her like a professional healer, guiding her through the steps, monitoring her progress, and ensuring that she eventually learned to perform the technique by herself.

I also made it clear that this technique is, ultimately, meant to be done alone. A second person should not be there all the time. One has to connect with one’s own energies. For his wife, it might take seven to ten days to learn the full sequence. But through this structured approach, he would not only help her; he would also get his first glimpse of being a trainer, teacher, healer—someone who can teach techniques and monitor progress.

Then we began.

Checking Nostril Dominance

I told him: the first step for anyone is to check which nostril is dominant.

I explained how to do it. You close your eyes. Take a relaxed sitting posture. Bring your hand up to your nose and place two fingers horizontally just under the nostrils so that the exhaled air can be felt clearly on the skin.

Then, with eyes closed, you breathe through the nose for a few breaths and observe which breath is falling on the fingers more forcefully, more dominantly. That is the dominant nostril at that moment.

In his case, I guided him gently:

I asked him to close his eyes. I reminded him that I was teaching him the technique so that he could later get it done through others as well. If he was guiding someone else, he should first tell them to close their eyes, then breathe through the nose, and notice the breath on the fingers.

I asked him to check: was the left side totally closed, or just less dominant? Was the right side too strong, or balanced?

I explained the principle very clearly: for anyone you are checking, the dominance should not be 80–20 or 20–80. If it is like that—too extreme—it is problematic.

Ideally, through regular practice, the pattern should move toward 40–60, 60–40, or 50–50 between the two nostrils. But 80–20 or 20–80 is extreme.

• If the left nostril is extremely dominant, the person tends to be in depression.
• If the right nostril is extremely dominant, it is connected with anxiety, hyperactivity, and even severe mental issues like schizophrenic patterns and other disorders.

So this nostril check was the first diagnostic step.

I told him that after doing the technique, he should again check where the dominance had reached. If he did this regularly, he would come to know that it is supposed to shift gradually toward 40–60, 60–40, or 50–50. That is how he would know that the balancing process was working.

Balancing Using the Underarm Position

The second step I gave him for balancing was simple but powerful.

Once he identified that one nostril was much more dominant, I told him to put his hands under his arms—each hand tucked gently into the opposite armpit, as if lightly hugging himself.

This posture needs to be maintained for five to ten minutes in general. In our practice demonstration, I asked him to do it initially for just one minute, because we had limited time in the session.

I reminded him that, in this posture, all his attention should be on his breath. In fact, throughout all the steps, his attention should always remain on the movement of the breath—on inhalation and exhalation.

If at any time he found it difficult to focus on the breath, he could bring his attention to the third eye region. So the focus should be either on the breath or on the third eye, but attention must remain steady somewhere within.

This underarm posture is especially important for people who are more into sympathetic nervous system activation—those who are chronically stressed, hyper-alert, or overactivated. For them, it might take five to ten minutes for the nervous system to transform into vagal tone, where the vagus nerve is engaged and the system shifts toward parasympathetic relaxation.

I told him that for his specific case, two to three minutes or up to five minutes might be enough. He would have to check what duration it takes for him to drop into vagal tone. He would know it because his left and right nostrils would become balanced, not extreme on either side.

With this step, nostril dominance would begin to balance.

Modified Mouth Exhalation

Next, I moved to the third step: mouth exhalation.

He had already learned mouth exhalation with me earlier as a continuous exhalation through the mouth. I reminded him of that: a long, continuous exhalation.

Then I introduced a small but powerful modification:

Instead of one long exhalation of around ten units, I asked him to break those ten units of exhalation into five to seven smaller parts.

So, rather than one smooth out-breath, it becomes a series of short pulses, like this:

Exhale… pause… exhale… pause… exhale… until you reach the end of your exhalation.

I told him that by the time he reaches the end, he will feel that the breath is more extracting and more releasing.

We practiced once in the session. I asked him to inhale from the nose and then exhale through the mouth in five to seven pulses, reaching all the way till the end of the breath, extracting completely.

I reminded him to ensure that he was exhaling till the very end, not leaving residual air just because it felt uncomfortable.

This modified mouth exhalation is a powerful way to release excess charge from the system and to reset the nervous system.

Alternate Nostril Breathing Without Holds

The fourth step I taught him was simple alternate nostril breathing—without any retention.

I asked him to sit comfortably and use his right hand to alternately close the nostrils in the classic way:

• Gently close the right nostril.
• Inhale from the left nostril slowly, extremely slowly.
• After the inhalation is done, close the left nostril.
• Exhale through the right nostril, again slowly and smoothly.
• After complete exhalation from the right, inhale from the right nostril.
• Then close the right nostril and exhale from the left.

This entire sequence is one round of alternate nostril breathing.

I told him he could do 11 rounds or 21 rounds of this step. This step builds the foundation of balance and calms both sides of the nervous system without creating any strain from breath-holding.

External Breath Retention After Mouth Exhalation

Next, I introduced what I called “external come back” in the session—external kumbhak, or breath retention after exhalation.

The step is like this:

• Inhale normally from the nose.
• Exhale completely from the mouth.
• After complete exhalation, hold the breath out.

For new people, I specified that the retention should be only 3 to 5 seconds. Even 1 second of holding is enough if someone is doing it for the first time. It should not be more than that for beginners.

For him, who had more capacity, the retention could be 10, 15, or even 20 seconds, depending on his comfort and practice.

We did one round in the session as a demonstration: inhale from the nose, exhale fully from the mouth, then hold the breath outside, and release when needed.

I made it clear that this is to be done only once in one sequence, not repeatedly one after another.

This step enhances the reset of the nervous system and deepens the transition from sympathetic overdrive to vagal tone, when used correctly.

The Most Important Step: Alternate Nostril with One-Second Holds

Then I told him: this next part is the most important step I was introducing to him. Here lies the real depth of the practice, and here the speed matters greatly.

The slower it is, the better it is.

I explained why he was doing all of this:

• To increase the space element in his system.
• Due to lack of space element, the mind was becoming overactive.
• Blockages were not being processed. Kundalini was getting obstructed in its flow.

When you increase the space element, you remain in consciousness. You remain free. You see that the brain and nervous system are getting rejuvenated.

If you have more space element, your nervous system operates freely and in a healthy way. When there is less space, due to energetic disturbances, then all the issues you face—energetic challenges, emotional heaviness, mental overload—arise.

By increasing the space element, all these challenges gradually reduce.

Most of the time, then, you feel:

• I am in bliss.
• I am in a lighter state.
• Whatever is happening in the body, I am not getting affected.

So this step is to rejuvenate and nourish the nervous system, and to cleanse and purify the energy channels.

The structure of this step is like alternate nostril breathing (anulom vilom), with one small difference:

• Inhale from one nostril.
• Hold the breath for only one second.
• Exhale from the opposite nostril.

Then repeat the same in reverse.

So I taught him:

• Close the right nostril and inhale from the left slowly.
• Hold the breath for one second.
• Exhale from the right nostril.
• After complete exhalation from the right, inhale from the right.
• Hold for one second.
• Exhale from the left.

This is one complete round of this step.

We did one round together in the session.

I emphasized again: the slower the breathing, the better. This is what increases space, calms the mind, and rejuvenates the brain and nervous system.

Breathing in Lying Position with Hands on the Navel

The next part of the practice is to be done in sleeping or lying position.

I told him that the last step would be done lying down, with his hands placed on his navel. He did not need to demonstrate this during the session; I only explained that:

• All the previous steps would be done in sitting position.
• The final step—lying-down breathing with hands on the navel—would be done once he lay down at the end of the sequence.

In lying position, placing both hands gently on the navel region, he would breathe deeply and relaxedly, feeling the rise and fall of the abdomen under his palms. This anchors the breath into the center of the body and grounds the energy, bringing it down from the head into the belly and the nervous system.

Practicing the Full Sequence Together

After explaining all the steps, I looked at the time and said: we have ten minutes now, so let us do the sequence. I told him I would keep guiding him and he should keep focusing on the steps.

I asked him first to check his nostrils again: which one was more dominant? He reported that the left was dominant.

So I instructed him to put his hands under his arms and hold that posture. I reminded him that this needs to be done for five to ten minutes in general, but for now he could do it only for one minute.

I repeated that his attention should be fully on the breath—inhalation and exhalation. If he was unable to focus on the breath at some point, he could bring attention to the third eye. Either breath or third eye, but attention must remain steady.

After that, I guided him to slowly transition into mouth exhalation:

• Inhale from the nose.
• Exhale from the mouth in the modified, segmented way.

I asked him to do three mouth exhalations.

Then I guided him back to external kumbhak (external “come back”) and alternate nostril breathing, asking him to do a few rounds—two times each step—so he could experience the whole sequence in a shortened form.

At one point, I asked if he was done. He confirmed that he felt the effect, especially in his head.

I told him not to do more at that moment, because what he had done already was enough—overdose could be too much outside in daily situations. I told him to do it mainly when he was inside, when he had returned home, in a secure, quiet environment.

Timings, Durations, and Counts

Then I gave him clear guidelines on timing and repetition for regular practice—for him and for others he would guide.

• The underarm balancing posture (for nostril balancing) should be done for five minutes in his case, or five to ten minutes for other people who are highly sympathetic. They need that much time for the nervous system to move into vagal tone.
• He should observe how long it takes for him to feel balanced—when left and right nostrils are no longer extreme. That will become his personal duration.

Then I summarized the counts for the sequence:

• Mouth exhalation: do it ten times as a good base; in the final structure, I refined it to 11 mouth exhalations.
• External kumbhak (“external come back”): do it 11 times.
• Alternate nostril breathing with one-second holds (the space-increasing step): do it 21 times.

After these, he should lie down and do the navel-centered breathing for at least 20 to 30 minutes.

The complete process—the whole sequence from the beginning to the lying-down breathing—could be extended from 30 minutes up to 40 minutes, based on how he was feeling and what his system needed that day.

I told him to do this process twice daily at minimum:

• Once before going to sleep—start the process one hour before sleep. He might fall asleep earlier, but the intention should be to begin around one hour before.
• Once after getting up in the morning—again 30 to 40 minutes.

The rest of the components in the day he could skip or do as per his inner feeling.

Lifelong Mouth Exhalation and Daily Monitoring

I emphasized strongly that long exhalation—especially through the mouth—is for lifetime.

Throughout the day, in all movement and activities, mouth exhalation is required. Every hour, if he did two or three mouth exhalations, it would reset him.

So I told him:

• Mouth exhalation throughout the day is a lifelong practice. It should not be forgotten.
• The rest of the steps are according to need and inner guidance.

Then I gave him a specific monitoring protocol for the next 30 days:

From that day onwards, for 30 days of this process, he should observe himself.

• His brain and nervous system should become younger.
• They should become totally new.

I asked him to click a photo of himself that day and, from time to time, look into the mirror and see whether it was making any difference in his state.

He already knew how he looked as a younger person—not just in the features of the face, but in the overall appearance and energy. Only he could tell the real difference every day. I could also tell him, but only after a period had passed; he, on the other hand, could monitor it continuously.

I told him that the most important benefit of this total process was to recover people who are going through problems with their brain and nervous system—as if their life-force there is dead.

This sequence, if mastered, is a powerful recovery tool.

I also asked him to report every morning about his sleep quality, because the main monitoring point was sleep. Throughout the day, if he experienced anything that felt like a miracle, a shift, or something different, he could share that with me as well.

And for other people he would guide, he should also monitor their sleep quality.

From Self-Healing to Becoming a Healer

I told him: if he mastered this sequence, he would have a clear reason to become a healer with the Energetic Mastery Method.

This process was just the foundation of that method.

Later, we would plan for the physical project—meaning, he would come physically to work with me, not whether but when. The reason for coming to the physical project would be bigger: I would be teaching him how to heal others in a deeper, more advanced way.

If he participated in that physical project and practiced in my presence, he would gain confidence. He would be able to implement this and other methods on others more confidently.

So this breathing and energy sequence was both his personal healing protocol and the first step toward becoming a trainer, teacher, and healer.

Planning the Physical Project and Closing the Session

Toward the end of the session, I asked him when he would be sure about coming for the physical project—not just having a vague idea, but being sure about the timing. He mentioned the next week as a time to think about it more clearly.

I told him that whenever he found the time, we could discuss it. For my planning, I needed to know roughly when, perhaps around September, with one to two months available for us to plan properly. That would be enough time to prepare.

I told him that so far, everything was good. I would share with him the practice link and details. I also mentioned that I had another session immediately, so maybe after 30 minutes I would reply to him about the next session time.

I ended by blessing him and saying goodbye with love:

Bless you, bless you.

Bye-bye, bye-bye.

And with that, the session came to a close, and his 30-day journey with this sequence truly began.
