Why Kundalini Kriyas Begin When You Try to Sleep

September 19, 2026

Background

Guru Sanju explains why involuntary movements, or kriyas, may become active when a person tries to sleep during Kundalini awakening. She describes kriyas such as spinal twisting, arm twisting, shoulder twisting, and leg shaking, and connects them with factors such as insufficient electrolytes, lack of lubrication in the body, blockages in the nervous system, energy channels, and energy centers, and the way Kundalini progresses through the body.

She teaches that medical diagnosis should come first before concluding that these movements are caused by Kundalini. She then explains the importance of prana, natural surroundings, electrolytes, nutrition, karmic completion, and releasing the hold and armor of the nervous system. She also describes why kriyas may increase during later stages of Kundalini awakening, why they frequently happen at night, and why understanding prana and the movement of energy is important for progressing in the journey.

What Kundalini Kriyas Are

Kriyas are involuntary movements that happen in your body. They can appear as spinal twisting, arm twisting, shoulder twisting, leg shaking, and many other kinds of involuntary movements.

There are multiple reasons behind these kriyas. For the main problem you are facing, you have to get yourself diagnosed through me.

Why Kriyas May Be Happening

Kriyas can happen when your nervous system does not have enough electrolytes in the body. That is one reason. The second reason is that you do not have enough lubrication in the body.

The third reason is that there are many blockages in your nervous system, energy channels, and energy centers. These kriyas happen when you do not actually know what to do with Kundalini.

Your sleep is affected when you are unable to figure out what you need to do to unblock these problems in your life. If there is too much hold in your body, these problems can arise in different forms and different ways.

How Kriyas Can Affect Your Life

Your life is affected. Your health is affected. Your relationships are affected.

When you experience these kinds of involuntary movements among other people, they may judge you because they do not know what is happening to you. These movements may be categorized as mania, psychological issues, or mental health issues, and you may be tagged as a mental patient or a psycho who is suffering from some kind of problem.

Get a Medical Diagnosis First

Before you judge Kundalini as something, or before others judge you, get yourself diagnosed first through medical practitioners. They can give you the actual diagnosis of your problem.

If something is diagnosed, then I have the solutions. If your medical and clinical processes do not diagnose a medical cause, then I understand these kriyas as being due to Kundalini, and the kriyas due to Kundalini can be corrected if you supply your body with the proper and right amount of fuel that Kundalini wants.

Prana Is the Major Fuel for Kundalini

Kundalini wants fuel in different forms. The major fuel for Kundalini is prana. Prana is the cosmic energy on Earth that Kundalini needs for its fueling.

Prana goes into your system and moves through your energy channels like an engine being driven by petrol. Kundalini is the vehicle, and Kundalini needs fuel to progress in your journey.

You consume this prana from natural air. When you are in a place filled with natural ambience, trees, forest, and an abundance of negative ions, this environment makes you feel alive and makes Kundalini alive.

Natural Air, Oxygen, and Negative Ions

Prana is automatically absorbed through your breathing. When you expose yourself to such natural ambience, you get a direct supply of prana filled with oxygen.

Negative ions are oxygen ions that go into your system and reduce inflammation. If you want to understand the rest of this process in detail, you can learn more from me about Kundalini progress and processing.

Supply Your Body with Electrolytes

Prana is one factor. Another factor is supplying yourself with enough electrolytes.

  • You can get electrolytes from coconut water.
  • You can get them from natural fruits and watermelon juice.
  • You can use lemon and citrus fruits.

You need to supply these electrolytes every day in a definite quantity to progress well in your journey.

Give Kundalini the Nutrition It Needs

You should also supply yourself with enough nutrition in the form of natural fats, natural protein, and natural resources available through fruits, vegetables, cereals, and everything else your body requires.

When you supply yourself with these kinds of natural resources, your system starts working. Your Kundalini works in a definite direction, Kundalini works in your favor, and these kriyas reduce over time.

Clear Blockages and Complete Your Karmas

There can be many blockages in your energy channels and energy centers. Those blockages could be connected to your karmic issues, and they need to be cleared.

You have to complete your karmas. You have to complete your transactions with people, with matter, and with the world. This is required, and it is a must in the Kundalini awakening journey for freedom to happen to you.

Kriyas May Increase Before Freedom

If you are in the last stage of Kundalini awakening and you are going to be free, these kriyas are going to increase multifold. At this stage, you should reduce the consumption of any kind of psychedelics.

You should also reduce any medications you have been taking if they are not helping you progress well in your Kundalini awakening journey, caffeine use after a certain time, and any stimulants you use for reducing the symptoms of kriyas.

Kriyas Release the Hold and Armor

Kriyas are actually a good thing because they release the hold and armor of your nervous system. You have been in body armor because of the personality you are identified with.

When Kundalini is releasing you from this body armor, the hold in the nervous system is released. This leads to involuntary movements of the body in different ways.

There is nothing to fear about kriyas if you are not getting the solutions, because I have the solutions.

Why Kriyas Happen Mostly at Night

Kriyas happen mostly at night because Kundalini progresses mostly at night. At night, cosmic prana is greater in the natural environment, and Kundalini absorbs it in your body.

To understand this, you need to understand how Kundalini works in your system. Kundalini is not outside of you. You are actually a field of energy, and Kundalini is the cosmic energy, the cosmic life force that flows in you.

Understand Prana and Apana

You need to understand how prana processes in you at night and how Apana, the toxic prana, is created after combustion. All this understanding is required for you, and for that you need the Guru.

Without the Guru, you cannot understand all of this. You need expert advice and solutions for your issues.

Understand What Is Happening Before Moving Ahead

Once you sort out what is happening to you and clearly understand that it is not due to medical conditions, you can get yourself diagnosed through me. You can get the correct diagnosis and then progress well in your Kundalini awakening journey.

Move Your Energy in Natural Ambience

The last solution is the movement of energy in natural ambience. Spend time in nature, hug trees, enjoy your time, and feel life.

Expose yourself to life, sunlight, blue sky, green trees, and everything that Kundalini wants. Enjoy life and allow yourself to experience nature.
